Thanks for the TSB number, I am not concerned about the issue being covered under warranty, I just want to know if there is a company engineered fix for the problem. I asked my friendly Kubota dealer last week, and they were not aware of any concerns about that problem or bulletins. I will...

What was the fix for the herky jerky motion? I had dealt with that on my B2650 since I bought it in 2019, there was mention of a spring change to the neutral valves, I tried that and it just delayed when the herky jerky motion occured. A couple weeks ago it pissed me off for the last time, I...

My M5-091 uses the break away couplers and they have leaked from new, I replaced one, still leaked. I cut a plastic oil jug to fit under the couplers to act as a catch can, problem solved. The plastic jug just happens to be gray in color a very close match to the Kubota gray. Pioneer couplers...

I bought a Land Pride BB3584, it stands up well to my Kubota M5-091.

I did look up dynamometer test data I have on a 1997 GMC 6500 with a Cat 3116 rated at 210 Horse Power, corrected rear wheel Horse Power was 191 HP @ 2150 RPM, 557 Ft Lb @1500 RPM. Calculated to flywheel values gives 225 HP and 655 Ft Lb. The moral of the story is that often times these...

Interesting! Maybe a chassis/driveline produced by GM. It was just a curiosity thing. What RPM does the engine run at your desired cursing speed? Have a picture of the engine label by chance, more curiosity on my part.

Is that truck built by General Motors? Many moons ago, a GM friend/associate of mine told me that the 3116 will only be Original Equipment in a GM built vehicle, some agreement with Caterpiller I was told. I have done dynamometer testing and various repairs on the Cat 3116, I will have to...

Now there ya go, I love it when a guy does his research by tapping the experts! Out of curiosity, which Caterpiller engine do you have in that old dog?

Well, that doesn't seem like a lot of horsepower or a lot of gears, unless the rear axle is a two speed axle. I haven't towed with a truck like that, I will defer to a towing expert, engines I know. One caution with that Cummins ISB engine is injection pump failures, especially if they have...

The Cummins B series engine is a tough little power plant. In that model year, I believe it uses an electronic Bosch rotary injection pump and I believe they were rated at 235 HP in the pickups and possibly a little less in a medium duty application.

It's not beyond me to do things that aren't supposed to be done! What I really like about my snowblower is, if I get it put on the tractor before snow is predicted for our area, the snow usually goes somewhere else. Those poor folks south of me probably aren't happy!

This works pretty darn goodly on gravel. I have wide skid plates on the back side of the blower also.

I found a used Land Pride FDR2572 in perfect condition, I use it behind my B2650, I did ad a full set of front end weights, it works great.

I decided on a Land Pride RC3712 I believe I have had it since 2019. It works well in corn stalks, cutting waterways, tall grass, fence lines, even mowing off the garden. It is built pretty heavy.

I am kind of a purist in the area of product colors, Internationals are red, Deeres are green, Kubota and Allis Chalmers are orange and DAMN IT, Land Pride is tan. Or whatever color Land Pride calls it. I bought my snowblower off the lot several years ago and all that my friendly Land Pride...
