For that tractor, you want 3000lb+ forks as it can do that lifting load off ground (not max height). I wouldn't get 2k forks...those are undersize fort that load. Also forks are rated using both (2) bars, meaning the load limit for a single is a 1/2 that...or for example 2k forks = 2x 1k and if...

I'm kinda in the same boat. I want to transport pine logs from recently dead pine trees (up to 24 inch wide, 17 foot long). Some of the trees are right off the existing trails I have, but some are deeper off trails where I couldn't reasonable take the tractor to. I got a grapple and foolishly...

I looked into offset flail mower and it was reason why I got 2 rear remotes. After I was using the tractor, I decided against it and instead went with rotary cutter. Reasons as to why: - A nice heavy duty rotary cutter cost 2.5k, but a nice hydraulic offset flail mower cost 6-7.5k - When using...

Hi all, This is a feeler post to gauge interest. Located in NC (north of Durham) or south central VA. I got this Kubota L3301 Nov 2021 and since then put about 150 hours on it (~3 months of usage). The tractor has been great, however I've been itching for something bigger as I'm starting to...

Not in stock anywhere near me.

The whine comes from a hydraulic fluid pump and resonates through transmission metal and ROPS (or cab) act kind of like a speaker to amplify it. The L series is intended to be 'simple machines without bells and whistles' and that's actually a reason many people buy them. However this means...

When I asked for third function kit, dealer said there was no kubota kit available for l3301. Sales guy recommended WR long kit, but I wanted 'OEM kit.' They installed the land pride kit stating it was essentially the same. I got a few leaks in mine so, not too happy with the land pride kit...

I just dug 150 feet of 4 foot deep trench using 16 inch bucket on bh77, l3301. Including moving dirt from the trench into piles, it took all day (9-6 with a break in between). When you hit clay, it slows down and struggles a bit, but gets the job done. I have 6 inch bxpanded bucket and don’t...

You just pointed out your reasoning. You will always buy just Kubota and EA because it’s a comfort thing for you. Sorry, but the bias runs deep… I am not brand loyal like you. I’ll buy whatever is good at the time and at the right price. I don’t care if it’s Kubota or something else. From an...

Unlike Ted's sale talk, spec sheets don't lie. EA 55 grapple is less heavy duty, more expensive, smaller opening, and much longer lead time than the Homestead pinnacle 55, which also features mechanical lid backstops, angled corners everywhere, a stand, and superior schedule 80 tubing braces...

Price seems high, however it’s possible after increases and inflation. I paid 37k for l3301 with backhoe, including 3rd function, 2 remotes, pallet forks, tooth bar, loader with 66 bucket.

What you state is opinion and emotional, but what I state is fact based on data.

Here is lift height unloading off a Toyota tundra truck. Not enough to get it (1000-1200 lb sack of sand + 375 forks) off the side, but more than enough to get it out the back. Also note I’m lifting from top straps. It’s easier to lift using pallet and under…get more height doing that. From top...

Here is me lifting 1400+ LB 5+ foot in the air today. Sack of sand aggregate 1000-1200 LB (depends on how wet…it was wet) + 375 pallet forks. Tractor has quick attach too. Moving it around at this height is do-able on flat grade, but tractor backend feels too light for comfort and it wouldn’t...

Amen. Specs sheets don't lie like sales talks or Ted's videos do. Homestead 'standard' grapple is more heavy duty than 55 wicked EA, but heavier (1/4 vs 5/16 steel). The EA wicked 60 is more heavy duty than homestead (and cost significantly more), but homestead makes a utility grapple more heavy...

Pushing and pulling would do the same damage to a steel metal rod... I thought that was common sense? Question is about force exerted, where metal wont bend up until a limit, which is quite easy to reach with a hammer with enough momentum and weight. Very difficult to bend metal with a sponge...

AT BEST, that is about 2000 LB of 'dangling gentle force.' Its MUCH less because you're using the loader as a leaver. When you have all 4 wheels on the ground and ram a stump directly, you're doing maybe 10 times that. Ted 'yea you can do whatever you want to this grapple.' Website and...

LOL again sales talk. Look at what it says on their website! This also tells you exactly what would happen if you called them with a bent lid... https://www.everythingattachments.com/55-Inch-Wicked-Root-Rake-Grapple-p/eta-55-wrrg.htm *NOTICE* If you want to push or pry...

I LOVE the marketing... it's clever. The force of 'gently pulling' using a chain dangling on an excavator boom to the end of tractor loader (while weight is shifted to rear as the tractor is lifted) is NOT the same as a tractor in 4WD jerking or ramming a stationary object. Same concept that...
