    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Stole one of the wife’s bath towels for the winter after borrowing idea from Paul Short on his treadle pedal fix for GL. Then stole her parking place in heated garage for a few days. I am soooo dead ☠️

    Examples of Kubota Backhoe Skills

    Agree with everyone’s comments. I spend a good portion of my day at a local hydro dam demolition site. I am totally in awe at the skill of these union operators. Several of us are looking at uncovered relics and earlier this week I spotted a 12oz can in the mud at bottom of an excavation. I...

    Does tire grooving really work?

    Looks very good did you use a template? I’m thinking of single grooving my rears to save some effort. Our winter so far has been a bust so I’m going to do it in warmer weather. Thanks for pics.

    Another grease thread

    I use Kubota’s grease but as you can see it’s awful loose and makes a mess around the zerks. After 110 hours on the tractor I took the time to go after the excess.

    BH Bucket Size

    I don’t know the capacity of your machine I like my 18” I would think 16” would be easier to get soil to dump. Whichever you choose make sure it has teeth. You’ll get your greatest breakout force with bucket curl. Consider the manual thumb option it’s a real lifesaver.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Made enough room in garage to store dump trailer inside. Tight fit but at least everything is in out of the weather.

    2016 L4060 buying advise

    I have the GL4060 is this the same? I’m assuming it is and I really like it. I don’t use it for farming so I can’t comment there. The cab is great, good noise insulation, PTO button is in a bad spot on my 2020 model and you bump it with your elbow. Heat and air are good. It gets warm in cab with...

    L4630 3 pt slow to lift

    I bought the work shop manuals (WSM) for tractor, loader, backhoe on pdf from the dealer. Came on a CD and is a must even for us novice mechanics. I think I paid $210 for all of them (including the operators manuals). They're model specific so none of mine is going to help you or I'd include...

    Road Safe Dump Trailer that a B series can also pull

    You probably can't pull this one with your tractor but I sure liked the quality of their build and I was looking at one I can pull with my Toyota Tacoma. https://www.diamondc.com/trailers/dump/
