    Gasoline Engine Swap - is it possible?

    You nailed it! Maybe I had B3350 on the brain?

    Thanks. Guess I agreed too quickly to “Negative”. The video made it pretty clear it was AI operated.

    L5030HST Tires and Lead/Lag

    Are we using the right formula? Check out the formula at this site. Lead-Lag Ratio For the R1s that formula yields (98*1.56)/156 = 0.98, which is a 2% lag…hum about the same place we ended up previously.

    Gasoline Engine Swap - is it possible?

    Sounds like heresy, other than the offsetting B3030 aspect. Could a person pull all the emission stuff off the stock V1505 diesel? I suspect the little Toy gasser might be a bit shy on torque at an engine rpm that provides 540 PTO rpm? Or maybe some gearing would have to happen so the PTO rpm...

    Good eye given the top of the photo is clipped. That probably is a ROPS.

    L5030HST Tires and Lead/Lag

    Not really any more enlightening on this exact quandary, but in the post below (and in post 20) of that link @rbargeron explains how one could calculate the transference ratio “if” they knew all the tooth counts on the various front and rear axel gears. Wish we could find that. Transference...

    L5030HST Tires and Lead/Lag

    Interesting. Here’s a link to the table and tread from which the 1.56 “gear ratio” appears to have originated for this conversation. L Series Wheel and Gear Ratio Data It’s clear you indeed realize that the “gear ratio” in the referenced table is most likely actually the difference in overall...

    Is Kubota Really Thinking About This

    What a POS. AI for the gentleman farmer that has more money than time. Note the lack of an operator’s platform. This thing will roam the vineyard on its own while you have breakfast with the family. I’ll bet there will even a EV model if it ever to gets to production. Probably spend a month a...

    Me too. There a couple Ten Mile Creeks in my neck of the woods too.

    L5030 HST Tires

    You ate You are welcome. If the turf tires are working for you presently, R3 I believe, then you will likely be well served with the R14 tread as well, plus a bit of extra traction.

    Hertz to sell 20,000 EVs in shift back to gas-powered cars

    Good to know. I think I have one multi strand Al 240V circuit in of the panels in my house. FWIW, when we upgraded our service from 200 amps to 400 amps, it required a new transformer, and mine was the only service from that transformer (it’s a 1000 ft from the county road). IIRC, that was...

    The price sounds about right. I’m sure some folks have paid less, some more. The L2502 won’t have the DPF or regen cycles that the L3902 would. So that’s not a bad thing. If you want more FEL capacity, the Grand L series can get that, but they do cost a bit more (and are a fair bit nicer...

    L5030 HST Tires

    Just be aware that R14s are not a substitute for situations where an R1 is needed. Such as a wet pasture. I have one tractor (two I guess, including the old 8N) with R1s and one with R14s. The R14s work for 90% of my intended use, but they load up easily with moist soil if on a grade and then...

    Hertz to sell 20,000 EVs in shift back to gas-powered cars

    EVs are great when: There is a taxpayer funded subsidy to encourage ownership, When one only needs to drive short distances in an urban environment, When someone else pays the power bill, When you have secure, dedicated off street parking and time to change for many hours, When you have multiple...

    Looks odd to me - but maybe OK

    Does this unit have an OEM 3rd function? Big K didn’t own LP when the 40 series was made. I’m betting that skid plate is OEM. Although LP probably did prove 3rd function kits for the 40 series back then. Few others than OEM or a picky owner (like me) would have that guard Orange and so well...

    L48 with backhoe , no side side movement?

    Did you recently replace the valve body because the previous one failed? Is that when this issue started?

    Mice in Cab roof

    I’ll need to do more research then. Because up to now I “thought” I was using the anticoagulant version. Which is what I’d prefer. I didn’t realize there’s two formulations of the same product. Thanks for cluing me into that.

    Bx2370 right side's f.e.l. pin - I cannot remove. On flat concrete with front wheels up. Looking for pointers.

    I’d give it a shot by starting over with the removal process. The tires should just have the load off them. The FEL support should not be on the ground at this point (which I can see it is not), unless you want to bend it. Have you been beating the pin in, in the past? It looks pretty shinny on...

    L5030 HST Tires

    Let my check my manual. You probably have one of the optional sizes, R4 vs R1. Yup, as stated above, it’s the R4 (industrial) version vs R1 (farm) version. Here’s some photos from my L30 series manual. I included the ballast weight chart too incase that’s helpful.

    Wow!!!

    Those boys came close to out running their guardian angles. Hope they decided to do something productive with their new leases on life.
