    4 ft attachments for an MX5200

    Yes, you can. But with the MX being 18" wider than the L, you will have even more tire sticking out past your implements than you had with the L.

    Considering new ZD1211-72

    The cut quality is great overall as long as the grass is reasonably dry. I will say that if wet and a bit long / heavy, it tends to leave a strip that the left front wheel flattens, and due to the direction that the blades rotate, it doesn't seem too lift the grass there as much as the rest of...

    Considering new ZD1211-72

    Yes, still factory blades. They are still like new and don't even need sharpening yet. I have 3 other Kubota mowers (B6200, T1700HX and an old 5' 3pt), I only use Kubota replacement blades because they outperform any others in longevity. They must use good steel when they make them. In your...

    Considering new ZD1211-72

    I have the ZD1211 with 72" deck. Bought it last spring and used it all last summer. It's a great machine, typical Kubota heavy duty quality. Lots of power and will cut heavy grass all day, no problem. I do have a few rougher areas, so the 72" will scalp a bit here and there if I'm trying to cut...

    Water somehow getting into Bush hog Gearbox

    Plus, if it was cold oil put in a cold gear box, the level will increase once the oil and gear box warm up. Not sure if it would account for that large of an increase, but it will account for some of it.

    B7100 hard start and over-speed after repairs

    Try doing the same cold start tomorrow, but only push the throttle open about a quarter of the way, instead of full throttle. See what happens.

    Are Suitcase Weights Universal?

    I had eight 40# John Deere weights hanging on the factory front weight bar on my MX5000 when I bought it. They fit like a glove. I took them off when I bought an LA852 FEL for it as the grille guard won't fit on it with the weight bar installed, plus, no need for front weights when the FEL is...

    Greetings from the Bayou,, NTM Kubota 1900

    I don't own one but my neighbor does, and it has been a good machine. I can't help you with the year yours was made but I do know they were made from 1989-2000. My neighbor bought his new in about 92 or 93 and has never had an issue other than a couple bearings and a few belts on the mower. He...

    Filter magnet

    Buy a strong magnet and just stick it to the filter housing, it'll do the same thing.

    Kubota B2650 Winter Front Grille Cover

    Very interested in getting a set made for my MX5000. I think the nose piece would be easier to make than the one on the B3350, as it isn't a round nose, it's more square. The side panels would be pretty straight forward, as well. I won't need it for the remainder of this winter but I'll get in...

    RTV Plow - Only Angles Right

    When you say "jammed", what do you mean? Do you mean something was stuck inside it, plugging it off?

    Kubota B2650 Winter Front Grille Cover

    Bird dogger, have you ever thought about making them for other Kubota models? I think you might be sitting on a gold mine here.

    Deer whistles

    I've been driving for over 40 years, the last 20 of which are well over 100k a year. The majority of my driving is at night. I have seen more deer than I can count over the years, so have become quite accustomed to their usual modus operandi. I ran deer whistles for 2 years and I swear that they...

    RTV Plow - Only Angles Right

    Did you retrieve all the pieces of the snapped bolt? Is there any chance that a piece of it is jammed in the angling portion of the blade, preventing it from working correctly? Did you disconnect both rams and see if the blade angles freely?
