    B5100E cranks slowly

    Posting this for my brother. He has a 1982ish B5100E. Disclaimer: All info is through him to me, he is not tech savvy but pretty mechanical. When he cranks it with compression release closed, it turns very slowly. When open, it cranks fine. New starter, good battery, all wires and terminals...

    Reversing R4 tires?

    I finally got off my lazy butt and am in the process of grooving my R4's. Naturally, I checked you tube university. One video I saw had a comment suggesting reversing tires, so just swapping sides. Any thoughts on this? I am looking for all the traction I can get in winter on my very steep...

Machine has right around 200 hours, I got it with about 165ish hours. Thanks, all. Oh, and I have never used the inhibit button or gotten any indication{light...

    Rear weight options-Speeco with weights, or filled tires??

    I am looking for options to add weight to the rear of my L47. The manual specifically states not to use rear ballast with BH, which is on 90% of the time. However, when I use my rear blade, tractor is too light in the back. So, i could fill tires and ignore Kubota warning, or, I am considering...

    L47 drawbar "mount" missing?

    I recently dropped by BH and set up my 3 pt hitch on my L47. Today I was getting things adjusted and decided to see how the new drawbar fit. Well, either I am an idiot, or there is no mount for it. Does anyone have a pic of the back of their L47 without the BH on? Thanks!

    Trenching bucket for L47

    Success!! Finally got the bucket I needed, after an initial oopsy, and this bucket being trapped in the Yellow Line disaster. Many many kudos to Rhinox US for helping me get this sorted out. Very well built bucket, and outstanding customer service. Highly recommend!

    SSQA to 3 Point quick hitch

    Mentioned in a recent thread, seems like a great idea. I could use my box blade on front of my tractor and easily adjust my angle, etc. Thoughts? Comments? Any brand recommendations? Thanks!

    L47 TLB bucket question

    My L47 TLB has the quick attach on the bucket, presently a 24". I believe it is actually an excavator bucket? I am looking for a small trenching bucket, ordered 1 but the pin spacing is wrong. What excavator model would correspond to that backhoe? Thanks in advance!

    To fill or not to fill...also, spacers

    I recently traded my L2501 for an L47TLB (lightly used). The tires were supposedly filled, however they are not. My question(s) to the group: Should I get them filled? According to the manual when the BH is attached ballast should be removed from tires. Thoughts? I also am considering 2.5"...

    Weight of filled tires?

    I ordered some Bora wheel spacers for my L2501 with R4 tires, which I will need to remove to install spacers. Does anyone have an accurate weight for a filled 15-19.5 tire? Filled with WW fluid. I tried searching here and elsewhere without a definitive answer. Thanks, all!!

    Grapple arrived!!

    This guy finally showed up, 15 weeks from order date but Homestead was pretty up front about delays. Put it right to work moving some rocks and clearing some brush.

    Rubber pads for outriggers

    Anyone have a source for the rubber pads that go on outrigger shoes to protect surface? I believe Kubota part # is L9467. BH77 backhoe. List for these is $260, seems a bit steep. Right now I have a couple pieces of 2 x 4 screwed on but I doubt it will last long. Needed something to protect...
