So when I moved here in the 90s, I was just a little kid but I remember seeing this metal object sticking out in the woods. My dad always joked saying it was an old car someone buried there a long time ago. Over the years we tried to get it out but it didn't budge at all. Kinda just forgot...

I wore my work shoes out last year and they barely last a year so I'm looking for some suggestions and what you all like. My current ones are steel toe which is probably smart to wear around the tractor although I seen many operate their tractor and the loader in flip flops or crocs 🤣 I do a...

This is the pallet forks that came with the tractor. But It's looking a bit rough and I'm thinking it could be a fun project to scrape off the peeling paint and clean up the rust and give it a fresh coat of black enamel paint. I do have issues with the locking pin things on the tines and they...

I bought two weld on hooks for the bucket that I want to install. It was mentioned to me that they are incredibly useful, making the bucket even more useful and not always needing to swap to the pallet forks. But I am not entirely sure where the best place to weld them into the bucket. I have...

I been looking into grapples for my L2501. I know that I'll have to install 3rd function valve and I'm pretty set on the summit hydraulic kit. Watched a recent video of someone install it on their L2502 and it looked slick and good quality for the money. Doesn't look that hard, I am mechanically...

Sorry for my stupid question, I'm still a newbie after all. I noticed, especially with the snow plow, when I park the tractor in the garage and lower the boom down and set the plow down...after a few times of not using the tractor..well so far it's been a week the end of the boom, where the...

I just came across this video tonight and realized they were Kubota tractors called Sunshine, I guess for another country. Man you couldn't pay me anything to do that. These guys are crazy!! Wearing flip flops and all lol. I noticed the logging trailer is PTO powered which turns the...

These came with my tractor, I thought I could use them but they won't work for me. Apparently these are for the Kubota L60 series? The part number is L8329 and I guess Messicks sells these with ONE light and ONE bracket for $120 which is insane. I don't have the lights or the other hardware...

This is my first time owning a Diesel tractor. I'm gonna say the 3 cylinder..100+ci engine is the biggest engine out of all the "toys" I had. My side by side had a near 10 gallon fuel tank. The L2501 is almost 11 gallons I think. I filled it on November 22nd and today is Jan 4 and I've only...

Could it be the operator presence switch? It only seems to occur when I am leaning to the right trying to see what I'm doing with the bucket or forks, sometimes the tractor will act like its gonna stall or turn off then when I move back and sit normal it continues to run. Starting to think me...

So we had a rare significant warm up here in Vermont the last few days which unfortunately caused my driveway to get crazy soft and there are some deep ruts. Its too early for mud season! The thing is, there is some really cold weather coming..below zero and just single digits for daytime highs...

After using the tractor for several hours now, I don't understand why Kubota gets hate for their pedal design. I know the green folks love to rag on about Kubotas and their pedal system but I encountered something interesting. It's simple. Its safety. Having the forward and reverse separated...

As I learn how to plow with a tractor, I am trying to figure out the best method for plowing with the tractor. I previously plowed with a side by side in low gear but it was still plenty of speed to push through all the snow without problem. The tractor on the other hand is MUCH slower. if I use...

I'm looking to get some advice on how I could add a simple warning light to the dash of my L2501 that will let me know if my parking brake is on. There have been a few times I have accidently left the parking brake on and went to drive the tractor and I'm hmmm the hydrostatic is whining louder...

My family usually gets together every year on the Eve and we all try to find new ugly sweaters to wear and since I'm a proud new owner of a Kubota, I came across this apparently on Kubota's official merch site. I thought it was pretty funny...although kinda pricey in Kubotas fashion. But thought...

I really want to upgrade the seat on my L2501 with one that has arm rests. I don't see any provisions for arm rests on the current seat but I have noticed the newer L2502 seem to have provisions for them. If anyone has upgraded the seat on their standard L series tractor with one that has arm...

So this is weird, I was doing a once over of the tractor and noticed that the rear fenders have missing bolts? There are clearly holes in the fender and a bracket there for one but looks like nothing was ever attached as the paint has no marks in it where a bolt would have been. If you have a...

I been reading through the manual for my L2501 and there are a few things that I am slightly confused about and was hoping some folks here could clear it up for me. So the first one was operating the tractor it self. I know the L2501 has a clutch and you must push it in order to start the...

I will definitely be interested in wiring up additional lighting. I've done a lot of professional wiring for lights on trucks and side by sides. But never a tractor before so I'm looking for ideas! I seen a few use light bars, some use pods on the ROPS. For me personally, I'd love to wiring up...

I'm new to the tractor community and just picked up a 2022 L2501 HST. I have a long driveway, although it's all flat, no hills. For years now I been maintaining it with side by side by pulling a homemade grader that I add several cinder blocks on top for weight. I even welded metal rods to help...
