This evening, I installed the cylinder head on my L245.

After draining the water from the fuel tank and bleeding the fuel supply & injection lines, it started right up. This is the tractor I bought two weeks ago for $100. I purchased a head gasket for $60, so I don't have much in it, yet.

I guess I need to start a re-build thread(with photos, of course).

That sounds great! Yes, you do need to do a rebuild thread with lots of pics

we love pics.

I put a gage wheel on my back blade. It helps rid the drive of snow, but keep the gravel. I started with the wheel directly mounted to the plate extension- giving me an inch of lift on concrete. After a day of moving snow I decided I'd sooner it -the wheel - was down a bit lower and the blade a bit higher. So I added the additional 1" spacers. Now I need more snow, to try it out! The swivel caster has a 600lb rating, and seems to do just fine so far.

Nice job on the guage wheel.

What is snow?

Now I need more snow, to try it out!

Oh No!!

That's like us down here asking for more rain.

Bought two bags of ready mix to make my front end weight. Will have to take some pics of what I came up with to make the thing out of. I think it will be interesting not to mention cheap.

Used my 3000 to put out 500 lbs of grass seed and then used the 9000 to pull my disc across everything real light to help get the seed in the ground.

Buse · Mar 6, 2012

Sounds great, Bulldog - grass seed...I just took off my snow chains...(Sic)

Put the long forks on the bucket. Moved 3 brush piles to the burn pile. Piled on 5 buckets of wood, (sold my wood heater) can't give wood away here now, tornados. Cleaned off side of driveway, dirt pileing up. Moved dirt from wifes flower patch. Pushed burnt wood back together. Put fence around wifes garden. Fixed 100 lb weights to mount on box blade. Cut down 3 trees and stacked up wood. I'm tired!!!

Now that was a day!

I moved some snow berms to make the road a bit wider. Did a little leaveling on the road. Used the FEL to lay some sand down on an ice covered trail. Just had some fun seat time

SockPuppet · Mar 10, 2012

Replaced the seals in my FEL lift cylinders to stop it from slowly bleeding down.

I now have a strong dislike of the person who thought gland nuts were a good idea.

Got my 200lb. weight installed on the front and was finally able to grade the steep part of my drive.

Could have just had a fat chick sit on your hood, and you'd been in business along time ago!

I used my L3830 to load a 360 lb wild boar that I shot at daybreak into the truck . I aways take my rifle with me to the ranch just in case I see a coyote or wild boar. Looks like we are eating pork for a while now YUMMY

UWAdventurer · Mar 11, 2012

Changed the oil in both of mine today and added gear lube to both front axles.

Looking at options to add some lights to the front of my L3400, looks like I might just strap them to my grill guard with hose clamps, run wiring to a relay and add a switch to the dash.

Thinking about purchasing a mechanical thumb for my back hoe. Anyone have any experience with Hound dog BT75-SH mechanical thumbs?

LT1Pat · Mar 11, 2012

Changed the front main seal on my L245DT

That is awesome. How much diffrent does wild boar taste than store bought pork? I have had deer, elk, bear, moose and gator but I have not had wild boar

I had to sit inside and the brochure again all weekend. Too much rain to deliver my new M7040 and other toys..... :-(

I aired a low tire up today. 'bout all the energy I had left after everything else today.

Eric McCarthy · Mar 13, 2012

I had actually got some seat time in today, for the first time since about August. Actually had a reason to knock the dust off and fire my Bota up. I hooked up the finishing mower and did some mowing in a field behind my house.

What did you do to or on your Kubota today?
