    L3800 blade and hydraulic questions

    The RB3784 is about perfect for your L3800. A 7 foot blade at a 35* angle is only making about a 66" cut. At 45*, about 60". A 6' blade is 58" at 35* and 50" at 45*. Do you have or are you going to have your rear tires filled? That will make a HUGE improvement with how your tractor handles...

    Canopy

    You guys need to keep in mind how small the Rhino canopies are. From what I have seen, they are all to small for the machines that they are often installed on. Price is right, size is wrong. Sort of you get what you pay for situation. :(

    Hydraulics mods to L2900, help!?!?

    Everything can be plumbed in from here. Your 3rd function valve would be plumbed into the power beyond line that goes from the loader valve to the rear remote valves. All pretty simple actually.;)

    L3800 blade and hydraulic questions

    Get the RB3784, perfect size for your tractor. Be sure to get it with the skid shoes, they make a HUGE difference in pretty much every condition. You are going to have to fab something up as far as hydraulic offset. That is not an option with that blade that I know of. Hydraulic blade angling...

    Loader leaking down : Normal or Abnormal ?

    First thing to do is to figure out if it is the cylinders or the control valve. Get you bucket loaded, curl back. With the bucket still on the ground and supported by the material pile you just loaded from, shut the tractor off. Un-plug the curl lines at the couplers. Start the tractor and...

    Advise on buying a rear blade

    My recommendation would be to step up to a Land Pride RB3784 with skid shoes and hydraulic angle, although the hydraulic is an option and not required. The 26 series blades are simply not heavy enough to really be able to work very well and the 12" of sliding offset is a joke IMO.:( While it...

    M5140HD Box Blade size?

    To start with, if you actually want the box blade to work in pretty much any condition, don't even consider anything less than 1000lbs plus or minus a few lbs. A good width for your tractor would be something in the 78"-84" range. Anything that fits in this description is going to cost some...

    6' Industrial Scraper Blade on my M8560 has me stumped....I'm missing something....

    Do you have the rear remotes? If you have the rear remotes, you can get a complete top & tilt set (cylinders, hoses, couplers and flow restrictors) over here for $760 + shipping costs. If you need the rear remotes, the only true complete system that I know of would be Kubota. All the 3rd party...

    6' Industrial Scraper Blade on my M8560 has me stumped....I'm missing something....

    For a majority of people, just hooking up to the implement is easier even without ever using it again as long as that particular implement is on. There are always exceptions and it sounds like your brother might be one of them. Does not mean that it does not hold true for most people though.

    6' Industrial Scraper Blade on my M8560 has me stumped....I'm missing something....

    I have no idea what all the implements are that you have or will be considering getting, but I VERY highly recommend that you get a hydraulic top link. I am pretty sure that once you get one, you would agree that it was some of the best money that you ever spent. :)

    6' Industrial Scraper Blade on my M8560 has me stumped....I'm missing something....

    Sorry for the non accurate description. But you were the one that said that it weighs 350-400lbs and is 6' wide which would be a light duty rear blade. So the weight and over all size was not correct? My belief would be that it was a cat 1 blade and has been modified to cat 2 pin sizes...

    6' Industrial Scraper Blade on my M8560 has me stumped....I'm missing something....

    First of all, your industrial scrape blade is designed for a 40hp tractor with a cat 1 hitch at best. It is considered a light duty blade. Your tractor is going to end up destroying this blade sooner than later. Now, as far as hitching this thing up. Without the top link, have the draft arms...

    Landscape rake

    Just like most implements, look at the weight. Typically the heavier it is, the stronger it is. I'm talking about how it is built- weight, not weight that is added on so that the implement is heavier. My feeling is that the ETA rake is the best bang for your buck. Land Prides LR36 series is...

    Trying to decide L3301/L3901

    PTO horse power difference is big % wise. But while the 3301 will pull the same load as the 3901, it will not pull it as fast. If you need to get things done, get the 3901. I believe that the PTO is also set up differently from one to the other, I know that the earlier models were for sure. For...

    Top link Replacement

    Try here. Keep in mind that ANY aftermarket top link is going to have to have the tractor end ground down to fit for width. For some unknown reason, Kubota seems to think that the B series and smaller only require a narrower than std cat 1 end. :( I believe that the 16.9"-25.2" unit would be...

    What attachment to buy

    A box blade is a great all around tool, every tractor owner should have one. For maintaining a drive, very hard to beat a LPGS. Secret is, have them both. ;)

    8' disc behind L3540?

    Off set or tandem? Light weight or heavier? What size pans? 3pt or pull? I have an old JD-Kielfer 8' offset pull disk with 22" pans, in soft soil pulling axle deep there are times that it will stop my 75hp tractor. This disk weighs around 2000lbs. My thinking is that you should stay with a 6...

    Top and Tilt Kit for Bx50 Series

    Yes the hitch parts are the same as the models listed. I do not list tractors that I personally have not had the chance to measure. Part numbers do cross over though, so we would be good to go. Fill out the contact page and I can get you a total bottom line cost.

    What attachment to buy

    If the road is as bad as it sounds, you may be much better off considering several different implements. Each implement has a specific chore that it was designed to do well, and even though most are used for several different things and may even work well at several different things, really only...

    Top-n-Tilt for L4600F, factory Kubota or ??

    Sid, A couple of things. Having the float function for both of the valves opens up other possibilities that could otherwise not be accomplished without having that feature. Kubota wants an additional $135 for each float function which is crazy stupid, they use to want $60 which was high. Should...
