Has anyone gotten the telescoping stabilizers to replace the turnbuckles ? I have a L3800 and would consider changing mine over if I can find a good set of telescoping stabilizers that arent to expensive. Im guessing there is aftermarket sources for them that are of good quality. If anyone knows of a good place to get them, please do let me know. Im sure sonebody has made them to.

I replaced mine on my L3000 with a set for a L4300 from Kubota for about $250. Telescoping stabilizers are the only way to go IMHO.

I didn't know Hodge then but it looks like he make a very quality product though.

How much does he charge for stabilizers for a L3800? I may need a set for mine
He told me I believe $175 shipped. Might vary a little depending where your at. He said he is swamped, you would get on the list and was 3-4 weeks wait when I asked a couple weeks back.

Well, add me to the list of happy, impressed believers. I got my new Stabilworks stabilizers and they are impressive- stout, easily adjusted, and Mark was great to deal with. Took a half an hour to get the old turnbuckles off & about a minute to mount & adjust the new ones. Two thumbs up!

I guess i'm gonna have to see if they make a set for mine. Those look very impressive and a lot nicer to deal with, then rusted turn buckles :)
