In my area there doesn't seem to be anyone doing mulching custom. Our county has at least a couple mulching machines that I have seen them clearing right of ways. The state seems to have some also I saw one running just down the road from my home place the other day when I was hauling gain to...

You have found out like many folks I know you have to have hose, fitting , dies and crimper that match. Got a buddy that was always trying to make hoses that cheaper way and many a time it just doesn't work out. Some times you can get by mixing and matching but normally it doesn't work out long...

Years ago I traded skid steers just to get the hyd SSQA. Back then I was feeding cattle with the skid steer and was switching between the bucket and bale forks many times of the day. Wouldn't be without on my skid steer. I don't switch enough on my MX6000 to have it on there and most of the time...

I have two of the LuMax brand pumps and they have been good pumps. I bought them at a farm store years ago. I don't use them a lot but there handy when I need them.

Paul Nice work. I do a lot of bat wing type mowing ever year and no matter how well I watch I always seem to find surprises in the tall grass on road ditches. Never hurts to have things built a little on the heavy side. Enjoy the new mower.

I had the same issue with my MX6000 the top link was too short from my sprayer. I bought a longer one from TSC probably the one you have listed. Been running it for several years with no issues. the Kubota factory one hangs on the peg board in the shed. I did complain to the dealer about it...

I normally like to run a couple tanks of treated fuel threw my snow plowing rig which is normally my skid steer before the real cold sets in. I always check the cord on the engine heater to make sure its doesn't have any bad spots in it. and plug it in ahead of time to make sure its working also.

I have gotten close to 70 hours before on my MX6000 between regens and last August we had some 90 MPH winds go threw and took out a bunch of tress so I had a couple friends out helping clean up and put the MX6000 on a flatbed trailer for hauling brush about a half mile to a brush pile. The guy...

I have seen that kind of build up on filters on tractors that had eight or ten thousand hours on them but not on tractors with 400 on the tractor and 200 on the oil. I have way north of two thousand hours on my MX6000 and never seen that kind of build up on the filters when I change them or any...

I have to lube the range lever were it bolts to the tractor on my MX6000 at least ever other week during the spraying season or it gets hard to shift. I wash the back of the tractor off every time I load the sprayer. So that area gets wet a lot. I need to take it off this winter and drill it...

How many total hours on the tractor?

Just was in the city this am and road diesel has went from $5.60 a gallon to $6.00 since I was in the city Monday. gas is still around four dollars to four ten. I am glad I bought all my fuel for the farm in Dec last year.

OP its your money but I see no need to spend up for the L70. I have a MX6000 with north of 2500 hours on it and have had zero issues with it. It will do what you want for a lot less money. HST for loader work is nice. I have put counter weight on the back and loaded 1400 pound round bales on a...

I voted no. I have run loaders on and off since I was a kid. I have had a few with the rod type indicator and I never use them. I have had a couple of loaders with the self leveling and I always turn them off. A little seat time and your good to go. I hope your idea works out.

Welcome to the forum. Have a SIL that goes to Green Valley every winter. I have a wife that doesn't want to go any where for the winter so we stay in Nebraska for the winter. Enjoy the new new tractor. Mostly green around this farm but I still like my MX6000 and my Kubota side by side.
