    Changing hydraulic/transmission fluid

    Hi all…..inherited my dad’s L2900 with 1500 hours on it. Not sure if/when the last time the UDT fluid was changed, so I I figured why not? I’ve never done this, though…so my question is, does the full 39 litres of UDT come pouring out all at once….and if so, how does one catch it all? i know...

    Hydraulic fluid level

    I have a L2900 which doesn’t have a dipstick to check the hydrauli fluid level….merely a sight-glass. I remember dumping fluid into it last summer, and I saw the fluid in the glass. I don't see the fluid level anymore, so I dumped the better part of a litre or so…still don’t see the level In...

    3-point lever won’t stay up

    Hi, all….I inherited my dad’s L2900. Runs great, does everything I want pretty much. One thing though - the three point lever by my right hip seems to vibrate down after a minute or two. i want it at setting 4, for example, to keep my implement at a certain height..but invariably, it sinks down...

    Oil change interval

    Hello...was having a chat with another tractor owner about oil changes. My dad’s old L2900 (from the 1998 Grand L series) has a recommended oil change interval of 200 hours. For me, that is about 2 years...since I just mostly use it to mow in the summer and plow snow in the winter. Is two years...

    Mid-PTO

    I am almost embarrassed to post this. but here goes. I took over my parents’ acreage about 5 years ago..including my Dad’s L2900, which he’s had since he bought it new in 1999. i have been using this tractor for 5 years now and diligent in my efforts to know all about it. But I never ever...

    Box blade width

    I know its a topic beaten to nigh unto death here...but here goes. Does your box blade have to totally cover your rear wheels? I’m looking a LandPride BB for my L2900 (32hp), and the dealer was pointing me to the 54” model rather than the 60”...saying that a smaller one might be more practical...

    What’s this sprayer worth?

    My dad had a 200l Florida 3-point sprayer that he used to spray his small apple orchard. I inherited the property and the sprayer. It’s only been used a couple dozen times since 2000. I don’t really need it. I almost had a heart attack when I saw they retailed for over 5K (CDN). what do you...

    Need some ideas for top link

    Just switched from a QH to a Pat’s system. My only issue is my homemade ballast barrel. I had a chain embedded in the barrel‘s cement looped over the top hook of the QH as a ”top link” attachment. Now with the Pat’s, I don’t have that attach point anymore. What would be acceptable ways to attach...

    Replacement seat.

    Got a new seat for my L2900 (late 90s) for Xmas.The Kubota guy told my wife it was a generic replacement type, and SHOULD fit. The original seat bottom has 4 threaded holes lining up with the holes on the hinges on the seat base. The new seat base has lots of threaded holes all over the places...

    New blower

    Was so tired of watching by 600-foot driveway get narrower and narrower with every snowfall when using the rear blade. By mid-January, I would have to use the loader to push the banks back a few feet just to open up the road again. After a couple years of fruitlessly searching for a decent used...

    Stabilizer set for L2900

    Tired of fighting turnbuckles, so I am looking for a set of replacement stabilizers for my L2900. Thought I would check out the Kubota L8430 kit, which is supposed to fit the L-series. Didn’t see the L2900 listed on the dozen or so L-series models on the Messick’s page. It apparently works for...

    Plow setup

    Hi, guys...had a friend come over with an old Ford plow to turn over some land. The plow looks like it’s super-tilted to one side, so only one blade is digging in and the other seems to be just skimming an inch or two deep. The ends of horizontal shaft that connects to the control arms - one...

    Kubota tiller question

    Hi all. Just picked up a Kubota tiller, only to find it’s one of those “grey market” kinds, so I don’t have any working documentation...not in English, at least. Question is for maintenance. I assume it’s chain-drive. There’s a filler cap on top, and a bolt on either side. I am guessing the the...

    What the difference?

    Ok..just noticed this on my dad's L2900. The specs for the tractor say the rear tires are supposed to be 11.2 x 24. However, the tires on the tractor are 13.50 x 16.1. What's the difference?
