OK, dumb question time. MX5100 and I have 3rd function on front end loader for grapple. Am I safe in assuming there would not be enough flow to operate a front end post hole digger?? I am not sure about flow rate, so I guess that is what I need to find out, but I am thinking that 3 point...

I got to noticing that my MX 5100 was beating me to death. Hadn't really thought about it, but got to looking and my seat is bottomed out and I cannot for the life of me get it to move. Tightened the spring all the way and it is still bottomed out. How difficult are these to remove? Looks...

New one to me. MX 5100 with 155 hrs, barn kept. Was driving to get diesel, approx 6 mile trip. Noticed that I had to keep turning the steering wheel counter clockwise to keep it on the road. Must have made 25 revolutions in the 6 mile trip 5 - 10 degrees at a time. Same on way home...

I have run into the typical problem with the first hydraulic filter removal on an MX 5100. I have 65 hrs on it and have been putting this off for this reason. Have read before folks having the same trouble. Any wise input as to how to get these filters off would be greatly appreciated. I...

I have had the old tractor for 15+ years I think. Never had an issue with the rear ag tires. Have a valve stem leaking and the kid at the tire shop asked me if it has a tube. I have no idea. Did the factory tires come with a tube? He is going to break it down tomorrow, and find out...

Have been contemplating a quick hitch for a while. My local dealer has a Land Pride in stock. It seems like a solid unit. Any experience? Have read about some but looking for recommendations. Looking at the Cat 2 quick hitch for m MX 5100. Doc

Well, couldn't find just a whole lot about these implements, but it sounded like just what I needed. SO, I took a chance and purchased one. I have about 6 acres at the farm that need some serious cleaning up. Many old fruit trees (20-30 yr old), and lots of scrub. Dad passed away 10 yrs ago...

Have never thought to ask this, but I have an L3010 4WD with a Bush hog front end loader. It is about 15 yrs old, and has always done this. When scooping dirt (or anything else) it works fine going up, rolling the bucket toward the tractor. When dumping it goes down almost level to the ground...

Anyone make any kind of attachment/wedge that could be bolted between the teeth of the backhoe bucket or thumb that would enable you to use it as a wood splitter? Just thinking it would save purchasing one more piece of equipment. Doc May have to play with some redneck engineering and see...

OK, I am the worlds worst about asking questions AFTER a purchase (closing the barn door after the horse escapes), but was looking for some confirmation of my purchase. I read and talked to dealers (one of whom I graduated with 30 yrs ago so I really trust his opinion) and they were high on...

Was bush hogging at the farm tonight and hopped off to move a big limb. Looked back and saw this; I sure like my side kick!! I sure love this old farm too. Doesn't mean much to anyone else, but it is home! Doc

Looking at cleaning up the old home place and saw one of these online. Called the Turbosaw; Wondering if anyone has any experience? Looks like I could clean up a bunch of the old sweetgum with this and a front end grapple. Supposed to cut right at the ground so no stump to clean up later...

A friend is looking at purchasing a new sub compact and we got to talking about it, I didn't know, but told him I know a good bunch of folks who could answer this!!! I am steering him toward orange, but is there a size below which the Tier 4 does not apply? 10hp, 15hp, 20hp, or is it all new...

Don't have third function on my tractor, but does anyone make a two function grapple? Haven't seen one, but just wondering. Doc

Dropped off my baby (MX5100) for surgery today (Finally pics!!) Woohoo!! Having the BH92 mounted to her this week! Like a dang kid at Christmas!! Can't wait to get to work. Will be spending much of spring break digging, pushing, pulling, and anything else I can think of. Will add...

OK, stupid rookie question, but I have not transported larger tractors for many miles. I have stepped up to the MX5100 with the BH92 backhoe. Will be hauling it 400 miles about 3-4 times per summer. Have the binder chains and and 4 load binders, but on the bottom of the back of the hoe, there...

Sorry, saw this in a local want add and HAD to post it here :D:D:D Gotta LOVE that Kubota "want to" attitude!! Doc

OK, have been contemplating one for a while, and after watching videos, I am trying to decide which is the "best" quick hitch (at least for me). I have decided that it depends on whether you need a floating top link more often than not. Looks to me like if I am going to be doing a lot of bush...

Well, thanks to the need for some significant backhoe work at work, mom had OK'd the purchase of a BH92 backhoe for my MX5100!!! Placed the order today. So, now, the wait. Figured since I was going to do it, might as well do it all the way, and got the hydraulic thumb with it. Dang, like a...
