The rear basket carrier is an ATV accessoryI fitted one to my L3200, L3901 and MX5800, they are super useful for a chainsaw, gas and oil. My shelving helps keep the floor clear and allows me to store most of my equipment inside. It makes more room for other machines!

I racked out the rear bay of my barn for attachments / implements and bucket storage, in total I have about 60' of 10' high 48" or 42" deep shelves. No matter what I always think you need a little more space!

It seems that you have plans for some real work for this tractor in rough terrain and also plans for stump grinding and chipping. I am going to recommend a L2501, the extra weight of the machine will be useful in many of the tasks you describe. While you are at the dealer take a look at one...

I think another question is what is your budget and how quick do you want to cut. Typical single spindle rotary cutters are up to 7' wide, multi spindle rotary cutters are 8-10' wide, bat wing cutters are 12+. you have enough rear PTO HP to run all of these options up to and including a Woods...

I'm with 85 Hokie, is this your budget limit and what size mower do you plan to run? I think the L2501 is a great machine and is super popular and resalable, my personal opinion is that the rear 19 PTO HP for a HST model is just a little low for my personal use (5' brush hog, 52" rototiller...

I've worked on a few older King Kutter bush hogs, blade changing can take on a life of it's own! It would be useful to understand which model you are working on, are you trying to remove the bolt that holds the blade to the stump jumper? Is the bolt threaded into the stump jumper or do you have...

This is my winter home use (snow blowing) and rest of year woodland tractor, its the only one I have with turf tires. At home I have a lot of lawn and have to have the turfs. I'm surprised how well the turfs work in the snow, they are great, for wood and field work I have found them OK, no...

I posted back in March on here showing a grill guard I fitted on my MX5800. I mentioned in that post that I purchased another grill guard for my L3901 from Lown Performance. This 2 piece model came with a very nice "chin strap" lower piece which boxes in the space below the grill guard to give...

The great thing about used attachments is that you can just about buy and sell them without losing money, occasionally even make a little money. It's a great way to try things to see what you really need and what works for you.

I was in the market recently for a compact grapple for my L3901, the loader capability is very similar to your LX2601. I have lots of attachments including larger grapples for other machines. My goal was to buy a lower cost twin lid compact grapple that did not weigh too much. After much...

I think it depends on how you plan to use it. I use a heavy duty 60” wide box blade that I use a lot with my L3200 HST for regrading areas in woodland, in 4 WD with AG tires I can cut and move a lot of dirt. If I went up to 72” wide I’m sure it would slow me down quite a bit. I like the 60” as...

I own a 7’ box blade and an L3901, I would never consider putting the 7’ on the L3901, I use the 7’ behind my MX 5800. I have a heavy duty 5’ that I use with my L series in the woodland, it works well and allows me to move and cut a lot of dirt. If you are only moving gravel, you may find that a...

i run a woods Bb600x that is about 2 years old, the BB60.30 is the new name and a very similar product, I run it behind a L3200 hst. I really like these Woods rotary cutters, they are super heavy duty for my woodland trail maintenance. They have a nice and easy blade removal system. My L3200...

You can certainly catch and reuse the fluid, assuming the fluid is not due to be changed. Another method I use on my HST tractors is to put two car repair ramps on one side of the tractor so the tractor is at an angle. I do this for both the left hand side and right side filter, I found this...

The Woodmaxx chipper I recommended is also made in China, only their high end MX models are made in the USA. Unfortunately so much of what we buy is made in China. I still believe that the Woodmaxx build quality in China is exceptional both for their chippers and rear snow blowers. Your tractor...

If you are serious about chipping I would strongly recommend a Woodmaxx WM-8H. This model has twin driven infeed rollers, this feature is a must for me in any serious chipper and takes away a lot of the work when chipping allowing you to achieve a higher throughput and to work faster. The infeed...

I purchased a MTL CV 60 from MTL Attachments, for my L series which has the same loader. It is a twin lid grapple and weighs around 350 lbs. They are currently in stock and cost $1,200 including shipping. I am very happy with the grapple and consider its size and weight a good match for an L...

David, it sounds like you got 2 sets of rear remote hydraulic valves that you plan to use for top and tilt. In my advice to Tim, ( the post you replied to) I suggested that he consider the need for rear remotes, I did not advise him to buy a top and tilt setup. There are many uses for rear...

Welcome to the forum, you have good questions. I have been exactly where you are in your thinking. I came to the conclusion that I really needed about 25 H.P. At the PTO on a L series tractor to run attachments such as a 5’ heavy duty brush cutter, 8 “ chipper, 5’ roto tiller, 6’ rear snow...
