    M1820 loader conversion

    I bought the seal kits from Messicks tractor parts, online. I had all the hydraulic hoses made up locally.

    M1820 loader conversion

    I purchased a L 4300DT a few months ago with no loader, now it has a loader on it. I came across a guy that had an older m1820 loader for sale. I gave $400 for it. It didn’t come with any mounting brackets. It came with an external hydraulic pump and tank and a dual handle Cross control valve...

    L series side panels

    You would think a guy could find a used one. Haven’t had any luck yet. Of course I’ve found a left side, but I need a right. Maybe the right side falls off easier! Lol. I’ll find something eventually.

    L series side panels

    Another reason I’m thinking it’s the same panel even though it’s a little longer tractor is that I noticed they used a spacer between the dash and tin on the 4300 and used the same size hood and panels for all 3. The 2600 and 3000 don’t have the spacer. I think I located one from a 3000. I’ll...

    L series side panels

    I checked on messicks. The 2600 and the 3000 are the same, they have the exact same part number. The 4300 is one number off from that part number. But, it will have a different part number even if it’s the same size because of the notch cut out in the bottom of it. I just need to look around and...

    L series side panels

    Its hard to tell by looking at pictures as far as the actual physical size. But they sure look very similar in the pictures. Yes, I have even thought about having one made at the sheet-metal shop. Could probably do it cheaper than $1100. But if they are the same, I would probably have a better...

    L series side panels

    I Purchased an l4300 DT a few weeks ago. It’s a nice low hour tractor but it’s missing the right hand engine side panel. Somehow it came off when the guy was mowing and he accidentally ran over it with the brush hog and destroyed it. Having trouble finding a used one. A new one from Kubota is...

    L4300dt right hand engine side panel

    I’m looking for the right hand side panel for an L4300DT. Or anyone know of a salvage yard that might have one? Haven’t had any luck finding one online.
