Yes. There is a single pedal but the front and rear pads are separated more than the length of even a large boot. I have no objections to the arrangement and like it better than the ridiculous pedal on the GL6060 that I once owned.

I have the same Z Bar rear tires on my B1750 with turf tires on the front. It was so equipped when I bought it new in 1994. The Z Bars are better in snow than other tractor type tires and not damaging to turf. Though never common they were once more common than they are these days. My B1750...

Bingo.

Looks like the latest version of Slick 50.

Bingo. Now you know why your FEL equipped FWA tractor will not back up a slight incline on crushed rock even with nothing in the bucket unless FWA is turned on or something heavy is on the three point.

Shovel.

Bingo.

Ouch. Remove wheel tire and take to tire shop that knows how to repair AG tires. This, folks, is yet another reason to avoid liquid ballast.

Aside from the sheet metal and the three cylinder gasoline engine option, the 35 and 135 are almost identical. Yes, the very last 135s had a 4X2 transmission rather than the 3X2 that was used on the 35s and nearly all of the 135s.

The linked MF 35 is a good looking unit, and it has the very desireable, fuel sipping Perkins 152 CI three cylinder diesel engine. That said, I would avoid it if it has Multi Power, as it likely does not work properly if at all. Be advised that MP transmissions will coast when in low range...

The MF 35 is also a good small, utility tractor but one should avoid those with the Standard Motors 4 cylinder diesel engine (notoriously hard to start) and/or Multi Power.

In the US, 135s could be bought with four cylinder Continental (prone to block cracks between cylinders 2 and 3) and three cylinder Perkins (converted diesel) gasoline engines as well as the wonderful, fuel sipping, three cylinder 152 CI Perkins diesel engine.

FWIW, the MF135, especially, the later model versions with 4 X 2 transmissions, is one of the most desireable small vintage tractors, right up there with the 8/9** Fords. Perkins diesel models much more so, vis a vis, early Ford four cylinder diesel engines as these engines were converted...

FWIW, gear type transmissions are significantly more efficient than are HST transmissions, at the expense of convenience.

I, too, have owned JD and MF user tractors, as well as Kubotas. Dealer relationship is much more important than is brand in most cases.

Why? Yes, I like tractors too, both modern Kubota users and vintage (mostly) Ford collectors. I collected both for several decades. Had lots of fun, learned a great deal, and spent lots of money. Eventually, before selling my acreage and relocating 1,750 miles I sold everything but my B1750...

I bite the bullet and buy OEM belts from Kubota. Verify that your Kubota dealer sells you a genuine Kubota belt with OEM Kubota part label.

Depends upon the implement. Most ground engaging implements require some side to side movement. Many other implements do not.

Minor three point offsets can be accomplished by adjustment of the sway bars.

I would not buy an offset rotary cutter for muiltiple reasons. In order to cover the tire tracks, I would buy a light duty 6' rotary cutter and make do. No direct experience with Hardee but have heard of them.
