    Pat's Quick Hitch vs LP QH15

    I got a B2601 last fall and love it and actually have the Lanpride QH15 quick hitch and all of my implements are compatible. Here is the issue and I' wondering if I might be better off with a Pat's Quick hitch. I have a bad back and what I found last fall with the LP QH15 quick hitch it that the...

    Negotiating on B 2601 - Web Build Price vs Dealer

    Some of the dealers are not even aware of the equine discount until you bring it to their attention. And even once aware of or even if they were aware the price they come up with will vary. Visit ALL dealers within a reasonable drive that can provide service after the fact. I can ASSURE you the...

    Dead horse

    I'm maintaining around 5 acres pasture, 250 yd gravel driveway, trails though another 17 acres of woods. Had my B2601 about a month after much much debate on whether a BX, B or L2501 was the way to go. Probably no wrong answer but I LOVE the little B2601. I almost went with a LX2610 or L2501...

    Getting a B2601 (finally)

    Had my B2601 for less than 2 weeks and already have over 20 hours on it. Maintaining about 4 to 5 acres of pasture and will use to maintain trails through another 17 acres of so. LOVE IT!!!!!!! The smaller size is already turning out to be a blessing for trail work and the RCR1548 medium duty...

    Analysis Paralysis L2501/LX2610SU…….B2601

    Update since starting this thread. Bought back in July, delivered last Friday. B2601, bushhog, tiller, box blade, pallet forks, quick hitch. After one weekend and just over 10 seat hours, very pleased. Was clean and shiny for about 1 hour :) I was actually dirtier than the tractor by Sunday...

    RTA1250 Tiller Push Button PTO- LOVE/HATE

    THANKS......will lube where the button is and move the PTO selector to "mid only". Wonder what in the world is Landpride's reasoning behind the push button as opposed to the collar type release mechanism. My LP 1548 bush hog has the collar and its sooooooo much easier. There seemed to be...

    RTA1250 Tiller Push Button PTO- LOVE/HATE

    PTO shaft is not to long. I'm mainly talking about the amount of force required to push that button on the connector. Awkward getting your hand down in the there to push that stiff button and pull off, or push the stiff button and push on. Button is in an awkward location. Guess my technique...

    RTA1250 Tiller Push Button PTO- LOVE/HATE

    Just got my B2601 and a number of implements. Absolutely love the tractor and put it through its paces this weekend. HOWEVER I quickly developed a LOVE/HATE relationship with the Lanpride RTA1250 Tiller. Love it for what it can do but HATE putting on and taking off. Its has a push button pto...

    Skidding Logs??

    Ironic but I've already ordered that exact 3pt 2" receiver from palletforks.com but its back ordered for a few weeks. Its suppose to be quick hitch compatible with my Landpride QH15.....hope so anyway. Only goodie I've yet to order is a Piranha Tooth Bar but they told me to wait until I get my...

    Skidding Logs??

    Thanks for confirming 3/4" fits and will order one tonight. Big help and won't have to wait until my B2601 is delivered in a few weeks to measure. Just got a Grade 70 5/16 in chain with a grab hook on one end and slip hook with latch on the other end from Tulsa Chain last week. Paid a premium...

    Skidding Logs??

    TrueG50.........Thanks for the link above. Just to verify but there are 4 size options on the link. 3/4" is correct for the B2601 drawbar? And yes, some Kens bolt on FEL hooks were ordered last week.

    Skidding Logs??

    Very educational. I used tractors a lot when I was a kid but that was MANY moons ago so will tread lightly (no pun intended) as I dive back in to tractor operating. I'm a paranoid worry wort to begin with so this will be a good thing in hopefully keeping me out of trouble! I'll have a set of...

    Skidding Logs??

    I'm getting one of these. Would I be better off attaching a shackle to this 3 pt quick hitch receiver and towing logs from this instead of the drawbar. I was just under the impression that it was best to tow a log from the lowest point which would seem to be the drawbar. I'm a newbie.....lots to...

    Skidding Logs??

    Appreciate the input, that drawbar grab hook above or the shackle directly about was what I was thinking. Cheap so I'll probably buy one of both see whether the hook or the shackle works better.

    Skidding Logs??

    Sorry as I'm probably not communicating clearly but just looking for something simple that I can attach to the drawbar that I can then attach a chain to. And I don't have the B2601 yet so not sure what size pin fits the B2601 drawbar? Would something like this work...

    Skidding Logs??

    About to take delivery of a B2601 but need some help on how to best tow a log out of the woods. Ordering a good 5/16 chain from Tulsa Chain but need to know what to buy to attach to the drawbar. I'm guessing a clevis of some sort but not sure what size / type clevis and what pin size fits the...

    Piranha Tooth Bar

    Emailed with an ordering question a few days ago. It was a specific sizing question that I wanted a response in writing in case an issue when delivered. No response so far. Sounds like a great product but may look at the EA version which costs more. EA has been VERY timely and responsive to my...

    Sprayers, Carry-Alls, Cultipacker?

    Thanks for the pictures. Going to get either the TSC you have or the RK (i.e King Kutter) carry all. Looks like the RK / King Kutter may be quick hitch compatible out of the box. Thanks again for the follow up!

    Sprayers, Carry-Alls, Cultipacker?

    You take $360 for the Brillion it and deliver to western KY :) ?? Double your money! From reading a lot of the reviews of the Fimco or other similar priced sprayers I'm starting to wonder how many of the problems are from not cleaning after use. Seems as though the people that take care of them...
