    I’m back

    Yes sir, only had my tractor about a year when it happened. Had just bought 2 new backhoe buckets the week I was served. It came with the 2 ft bucket but I needed a 1 ft for the first paying job I’d got. My dealer cut me a deal if I’d buy both at the same time. That’s how the 1 ft came to be on...

    Buying advice needed mx4800 or mx5800

    Pretty sure with my 6 foot bush hog on & loader on the ground mine was 23 or 24 feet. Measured it b4 I started looking for a trailer to get the right size. A 25 foot trailer woulda worked. I found a used 30 footer if that’s why ur asking bout length

    Buying advice needed mx4800 or mx5800

    Biggest difference is gonna be pto hp. U get 50 with the mx5800. It has a turbo too where the 4800 doesn’t. Same frame size. Same hydraulics far as I know. Maybe more pulling power with the 5800 but don’t know how that shows in reality. If the 4800 will spin and pull ur implements, go with it...

    EA Wicked Root grapple sizing help

    Call them and ask. They suggested the 60 inch for my MX5800 with the LA1065 loader on it last year. Took a couple months or more from order time to build till I got it. Will be one of ur most useful tools once u get it

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    I didn’t remove the stand if bamboo, cleared the fence line only with the bush hog but they had a forestry mower do the same a year or so ago. Wasn’t that bad really. The roots I dug up and through were tuff when it came time for that. That would be an expensive job for me to price to clear a...

    Old diesel fuel

    If no water in it or it doesn’t look black, just run it. I parked my tractor trailer over a year once and no I’ll effects with no additives. Diesel is way more stable than gas even 15 ppm diesel of the last several years. Filters will catch most problems and if the fuel looks black and u put in...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    I got a 12 inch bucket for my backhoe yesterday. Used it today to dig about 600 ft trench 2 ft deep for a neighbor to put in a “bamboo barrier”. The barrier supposed to arrive tomorrow. Rain will keep me from doing the install until next week. This is my first paying job with my equipment. Great...

    Trailer Length/Capacity MX5200

    Those tractors are great. Can do a lot in a little time and high capacity of power on FEL and 3 point. No cab needed for me here in Ga for what I do with it. It is heavy & the right equipment to haul it on will help u not be so tightened up on the seat while u are moving it. I moved mine twice...

    Trailer Length/Capacity MX5200

    I have a mx5800. Same size as your mx5200. I measured from front of FEL blade to back of my rotary cutter & it was 24 feet. Was looking for a 25 ft trailer. Found a used 30 ft 25 + 5 dovetail with mega ramps or whatever it’s called to make 30 ft flat at a good price. Has 2x7k axles so 14k. Mines...

    10 acres - what would you get?

    L47 or an mx. Box scrape, brush hog, grapple for implements. I prefer just over gear but that’s personal choice. Probably a backhoe for it because if u have it u will use it. Big enough to get a lot done pretty fast that u mentioned u wanna do. I have personal experience on an MX. Small enough...

    Primer Crimp Removal

    Remove the primer first then swage the primer pocket. I have the Dillon swagger but like someone said if Frankfort Arsenal is making one now, I’d have one if I didn’t already have the Dillon. That’s based on other frankford items I’m very happy with ie: their brass tumbler with the stainless...

    Smoothing Out Logging Ruts

    I look at it like I have told others about buying a smaller vs a larger tractor, a small one will do basically the same things a larger one will, it just takes longer on a small one. Several others look at it the same way on here. U already have the tractor and if u enjoy playing on it as much...

    Glock G40 10mm

    Yes the MOS model is the one I was looking at that is factory milled and has slots to mount a sight. I do reload but taking it above any of the published hard copy reloading spec books is a formula for early demise and I don’t do that. I have shot my single stage press reloads from all the 20+...

    settling estate - determining value of L295DT

    Sorry for your loss. Others on here will have an idea on pricing, I don’t. The one thing I would do is make it a package deal all or none unless someone already wanting one of the implements b4 u try selling the rest. If u are trying to get it outta the yard, it may be harder to do piece by...
