    5G switch

    My phone doesn't even have a sim card. I ordered a new unlocked s21 ultra off ebay. I have tmobile. When it arrived I dropped in the sim card from my s10 that I had previously, but it wouldn't connect. Apparently it was incompatible, likely due to age and lack of 5g compatibility. Did some...

    BX to LX — Different World

    I love my little Yamaha Rhino for puttering around. Plus it was cheap, reliable, and parts are cheap too. The downside to older machines is the noise. So loud I wear ear plugs when diving it for any length of time or at high speed. Wonderful little machine though.

    BX to LX — Different World

    Funny thing is, some of them do. I see a few pop up on market place from time to time. Several older JD models smaller than a BX also run them. I even seen possibly the most useless thing ever the other day, a loader for a four wheeler. Can't imagine the suspension would like that very much at...

    AgriMetal Turbine blower

    You wouldn't necessarily need a gear box. But you would need some sort of speed adjustment. I'm sure you could do it with pulleys too. Pick up a few bearings, couple shafts, couple pulleys and a belt. Probably a hundred bucks or so at the local farm supply and a few hours of playing with the...

    The Break In Period

    I'm not sure where or why someone would say full rpm for loader work or it would damage the engine? That's just odd. The engine doesn't care about the hydraulics. As far as break in, Kubota says that break in period is 50 hours. As far as how you handle the tractor during that time, I can tell...

    Engine Trouble

    I would check on the warranty before doing anything else but it sure does sound fuel related. Depending on the year of the tractor of course, with that low of hours I can't imagine its outside its warranty period. I wish I wasn't so far from you. I'd love to show you the basics. Tractors are...

    Building a boat trailer ladder.

    Personally I wouldn't cap anything that isn't going to be coated on the inside. If theres a way for water to get in, it needs a quick and easy way out or it will rust from the inside. Looks great, never thought of adding a ladder to a trailer. If I hadn't just gotten rid of my boat (thank god)...

    sighhhhhh. GM Electrical problem need help

    100% this^ Mind you it's been a long time since I worked on cars professionally, 13 years or so now. But in my experience nine times out of ten an abs code for wheel speed signal isn't the sensor unless it has an external pickup ring on a cv axle. If the tone ring is internal to the hub...

    b2601 vs lx2610

    Personally I'd go with the lx. I did figuring I needed a b2601, and as the old saying goes buy more tractor than you think you'll need. Although not much larger the lx is a bit more capable. Mine was purchased for ground work and stump removal same as you are planning. I also now use it to lift...

    Big Tex trailer

    Not all just most, and it is apples to apples. If you regularly need to haul say 5000lbs it would be safer to do so on a trailer rated for 10k vs 7k. Because a trailer rated for 10k is of course a bit heavier but not by a huge margin and the trade off is better brakes and a more rigid trailer...

    Big Tex trailer

    I didn't say it wouldn't do it. It will just fine. I said if its being used commercially hauling other things as well then it would be a bit tight. 2200lbs of tractor means 2800lbs of remaining payload. Toss on two extra attachments and a good ballast box and you're close. Add in other equipment...

    Big Tex trailer

    If its a 7k trailer that's the lightest duty twin axle available. (Twin 3500lb axles) So yes it is going to be quite light in its construction else it wouldn't be able to haul anything with that small of an axle. Without looking it up I'd GUESS the frame/deck weight of around 2000lbs, which puts...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Yeah there hasn't been rain here in weeks. The grass is all but burnt. The tractors been used on just about every day off I have on dirt work so the dust was unreal. Then it decided to sprinkle, just enough glue it to the tractor and not enough to rinse anything off or even keep the dust down...

    Yeah I bought the ol' Ford a couple years ago to do some things around the property. I used the back blade to level a few things and use chains to move trees as I drop them. (Ash bore wiped out several trees right before I bought my house.) But I really needed a loader and different attachments...

    Top and Tilt debacle...A pictorial guide on how to shoot ones self in the foot (Part 1)

    I would like to see the tubes be of equal length. But not the worst thing I've seen by far. Welds are pretty good all things considered.

    JD 675B Skidsteer

    Skid steers last forever, and 2k for a running unit is always a good price. You can put alot of time and money into a machine and still be in the "green" so to speak. On a machine of that age of course you'll want to look at things like joints to see if they are worn as filling and boring can be...

    When it involves zero planning, and you just walk into the dealership just say take my money! Trust me, you have nothing to be jealous of. The land itself was never farm land and therefore never cleaned. Not to mention trash services to rural areas is fairly "new" in concept which means thay...

    Hello to my fellow tractor enthusiasts. Been lurking on and off for awhile now in a totally not creepy I'm WATCHING YOU sort of way.... Anywho, new to Kubota ownership. But familiar with various forms of equipment and such. After a day in town with the wife waiting on an alignment to get...
