    New Kubota Z turn

    A few months ago I sold my John Deere X320/48" lawn tractor to my brother and picked up a brand new Kubota Z231KW/42" to do the trimming around trees and other areas I can't get to with the LandPride 72" finish mower behind my L4701. From Kubota I have the mulch kit coming which will allow me...

    Blades for Kubota Z231 KW-42

    First a little update, I recently sold my LP 60" finish mower and replaced it with a LP 84" finish mower. My brother may buy my JD X320 garden tractor with a 48" deck (if I decide to sell it, still trying to decide). I bought a Kubota Z231 KW-42 zero turn for trimming around trees and where...

    Pop or clank when turning L4701

    My L4701 HST only has about 200 hours on it. When doing some dirtwork with the FEL or mowing, I have started to notice a pop or clank when making a turn. It does it turning either left or right but only if in 4X4, not in 4X2. It is not a loud noise but I can feel it with my feet in the...

    Mechanical thumb to hydraulic on BH 92

    Hello friends. I have an L4701 with 2 rear remotes and a BH92 that I already have a mechanical thumb on. I'm wondering if I could buy the ram for the hydraulic thumb kit from Kubota parts and simply use one of the rear remotes to operate the thumb? I would get the entire kit but man oh man...

    Light weight 3 point offset mower

    I'm in the process of having a pond put in at a property I purchased last year. Three of the inner banks will be pretty steep and I will need some way of maintaining the grass/brush other than my heavy duty handheld weed wacker or my walk behind weed wacker (bank will be too steep for good...

    I'm no longer a virgin

    I've been running my new 2019 L4701 around 1700 to 2000 RPM max during the break-in hours. I never let it idle more than a couple of seconds. If I have to stop for a short time, I either shut down or run it at around 1200 RPM instead of dropping all the way to idle. The use so far has been...

    Tree grubber for backhoe

    Has anyone found a manufacturer that makes tree grubbers that fit small backhoes? There are some available for excavators but I haven't been able to find one that will fit my BH92. This is a photo of what I'm talking about

    Out with the old, in with the new

    Well, not really that old but you get the idea. Traded my B3300 with FEL and BH77 for a new L4701 with FEL and BH92. I had briefly considered an L3901 but was afraid the difference wouldn't be enough so I went from the largest B to the largest L. I'm pretty sure I'll easily be able to tell...

    Insane MISuse of equipment

    Sorry if this has been posted before but it is insane. At least no orange tractors were harmed. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=9Z7sDALCZjs And this. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=a4L8nIy7aW8

    Everything was going good until.... Buzzzz

    Yesterday, I was using the backhoe to pull some junk from the 30 foot ring of brush around a tree on 5.5 acres of overgrown land I just recently purchased. Everything was going good when I noticed some type of insect buzz by my head, next thing I know there are hundreds of bees swarming, many...

    B3300SU to L3901 HST

    I currently have a 2010 B3300SUHST with the attachments shown in my sig. I'm thinking about upgrading to an L3901 HST. The L3901 is the largest that the BH77 can be used on and I really don't want to have to buy a new BH too. I would get the 3901 FEL with the 2 lever (skidsteer) quick attach...

    Kubota parts availability... Or I should say lack of

    Two Saturdays ago I was using my BH and forks on the FEL doing some clearing on 5.5 acres I recently bought. I used the ripper tooth to break some roots on a small tree (maybe 15 feet tall) and pulled it out. I then used the forks to haul the tree over to a brush pile and dumped it. I leveled...

    B2650 PTO engages with a bang

    My B3300 has a clutch pedal which makes engaging the PTO very smooth. But when I hauled my brothers new B2650 out to his property for him I was surprised it lacks a clutch. We tried moving the PTO lever slowly but even doing that the shredder hooked up to the PTO engages with a bang. Is this...

    SOLD Bro-Tek ripper for BH77 backhoe

    I have a lightly used Bro-Tek ripper tooth with the optional trencher attachment for sale. The ripper has only been used 4 or 5 times and is still straight and sharp, just a little paint worn off. The trencher attachment has never been used. New these go for $550. I ordered it for my BH77...

    Brush grubber/rake

    I’m in the process of clearing an old creekbed at my weekend property where I intend to make a small pond. I’m going to widen the creekbed into about .5 acres of water. I’ve been pulling down the larger trees with a chain (I have horse panel attached to the back of the ROP in case of a chain...

    What can $320 and about 10 hours of your time get you?

    What can $320 and about 10 hours of your time get you? Now with pics. I know, there are a lot of answers here (some could probably get you arrested). :D But in my case, over the last weekend it got me an almost complete pallet fork set up for my B3300. I ordered the forks and slide rails from...

    Out with the old, in with the new... now with pics B3300SU, meet B7300. I picked up the 3300 and brought her home this evening. Parked side by side with the 7300. It's kinda exciting and sad at the same time. I may already have the B7300 sold. Gonna miss the old girl but I'm sure the 3300...

    Now I went and did it...

    Just got back from my dealer. Haven't signed any papers yet, it's just a gentleman's agreement. It should take about a week before everything is final. I think everything should fall into place to make it work to my satisfaction. Even if things don't work exactly as I want them to, I'll...

    Max RPM on a B7300

    I've been doing some FEL work and also pulling down some small trees with my B7300. I know that for PTO work, there is the recommended RPM indicated on the tach. However, in an effort to avoid breaking something I have been doing the pulling slightly below that setting. On another board I was...

    Work at my place or be nice to the neighbors?

    I'm torn between wanting to do more work on clearing an area where I plan on putting in a pond or being nice to a couple of neighbors that are waiting for this weekend. You see, it's opening weekend of rifle hunting for deer where my weekend place is located in the woods. If I get in there...
