I ordered my 60” MTL grapple last Monday evening. It was delivered yesterday, one week later. Can’t complain about the customer service. It looks to be a sturdy tool with all the basics covered, good welds, good steel, grease zirks where they should be. I’m pleased and it was $1269 delivered...

Ordered the above for my L3130. They shipped immediately, arrived a couple day later. The Kit came complete and with good instructions. I spent 30-40 minutes at my workbench reading through things and pre-assembling all of the fittings. You'll need a 7/8", 1" & 1 & 1/16th" wrenches. I'd...

Hi Folks, Have a L3130 I'm installing a 3rd function valve and the kit suggest going directly to the battery. I'd like to only have power when the ignition is on. Any tips on going in and finding a suitable place to connect for post ignition power? I'm guessing I'll need to sniff around the...

I've decided I need to add a 3rd function and buy a grapple. Last Friday, between the hours of 8:00 am to 8:30 am, I called 3 different Kubota dealers in the surrounding communities. As told them I wanted to add a 3rd function and buy a grapple. None of the " Phone People " knew what I was...

I need another line of fluid for a grapple on the front ( which I plan to use regularly ) and I need a line to the rear for small seed drill ( which I'll rent from the NRCS and use rarely ). Would it be crazy to add a 3rd function kit ( i'm thinking the Summit Kit ) for the grapple and then...

Hi Folks, I'm rehabbing my little hobby farm and will have multiple projects going on in the years ahead. I have an L3130 ( 31 HP ), no rear hydraulics. I'm going to need to drill in 15 acres ( a nine & two 3 acre fields ) of pollinator mix as part of a conservation program. Plus, I have...

I Folks, I have a FIMCO 40 gallon sprayer which came with my tractor purchase ( L3130 ). I want to kill off a 9 acre field with glyphosate for winter planting of a pollinator mix. Do you think this sprayer ( and my novice skill set ) is up for the job? I'd like to do it myself and think...

Hi Folks, I'm rehabbing an overgrown piece of property. I've spent much of the past year beating back brush & overgrowth. I have a 10 acre hay field which will be put into pollinator habitat this winter. I wondering what a good fence to field border would be? I have a 60" rotary mower...

If I have it right, my L3130 has 25 hp at the PTO drive. A nice 72” finish mower is for sale at a decent price locally but the sales brochure I looked up suggest 35 PTO hp. I’d like to think my tractor can handle a 6’ mower. Am just missing something here?

Hi Folks. This is off topic but I’m betting someone can answer this question. I’m at my Son’s home in Denver and there are what looks to be access panels in the soffit all around the house. It doesn’t make sense to me. Anyone know why these were cut in?

We have no rain for 6 weeks. Last Friday, I took the afternoon off and had 3 truckloads of AB3 gravel ordered to my place for a new driveway / parking space. I knew rain was a chance but we'd been missed many times in the dry spell. Long story but while they were enroute, the sky opened up...

I did a search and came up dry. My hand strength is not what it once was. Attaching and detaching the PTO shaft on my Landpride Brushhog is a challenge. It has the little pin you must push and, gosh darn it, it's hard to do. I see some aftermarket connectors going for about $400. Is there...

It's been hot here in the Hartland. Temps around 98-100 for the 10 days or so. I've been planning a driveway and have finally found time to do the prepwork. Drainage around my building was less than optimal. The building is 25 years old and things have settled over the years. I used the...

Here in Eastern MO, we've had a sold 7"+ of rain in the 20 days or so. Some torrential downpours. As a result, my gravel drive ( which I'm planning for an upgrade ) has eroded with a 8" wide / 8" deep gully forming through it at the most sloped area. I'll need to do some grading / water...

HI Folks, I know there is another driveway thread going but I didn't want o hijack it with my own issues. As summer approaches, I'm looking for the easiest, most cost effective way to gravel the below outline. The photo has Noth to the top. It's about 300' East to West and 75' deep on the...

Hello All, I have a farm road / trail that provides access to the South end of my property. It crosses a wet weather creek which is really a just drainage ditch from the hay field but it drains 4-5 acres and will flow when we get and significant rainfall. The soil in my parts is pretty much...

Looking real hard at a Quick Hitch. I was wondering if anyone knows if I'll need an extention to connect my Land Pride Rotory Mower. Thanks, LB

I have a new new place. I have multple mowing needs and I'm trying to figure out the best and most cost effective way to get set up for spring. I have a L3130 with a Landpride 5' Rotory Mower. It works great. I need to mow about 1 acre of lawn and I'd like to mow about .5-.75 acres of want...

I'm cleaning up some meadows which are full of Honey Locust. The thorns on the Locust range from small needle like on the knee high versions to 4-6" daggers on the full size tees. My plan is to cut, treat and stack the locust on the meadow edge. Then, come through with a 6" rental chipper to...

Can anyone tell me what I have here? More out of curiosity than anything else. It has a fin like a water ski. It has a frame which looks like it would pivot on a pin. I can’t figure it out.
