    Got a hummer this morning

    That's a rare sight to see for us married men... Oh wait, you're talking about birds... Carry on.

    LX 3310 - Fording through Deep Water

    Hose and check valve like 85Hokie mentioned will solve your problem. Google search for differential vent check valve, grab a length of hose, barb fitting, hose clamps, and a couple zip ties and you can extend your breather tube. Alternatively, if you can remove the breather tube and clamp a new...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Pulled out the giant stump, had to maneuver around some pine trees that likely scratched up my hood. Used the bucket chains to slowly back up and pull the stump into an opening where I could use the bucket to scoop it up. Moved it to the front of my property for now until I get access to the...

    Leaves - what to use

    I mulched with the ZTR for the last two seasons but the volume of shredded leaves has killed my lawn in some spots. This year, I'm going to get a cyclone rake to much and vac all the leaves off of the yard and in the woods, then blow the mulched leaves back into the woods to amend the soil there...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Thanks, will report back this week. Most of my accessible stump removal went well so now I just need to tie a chain around a large stump/rootball and move it out of the woods we're I can get to bucket to it.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Cut down about 20-30 buckthorn and a half dozen dead cedar trees between last weekend and this weekend and made a 6'x20' pile of branches and a 5'x5' stack of firewood. My buddy showed up this evening with his SSQA forks and we loaded up all the brush and crammed it into the 16' dump trailer. I...

    Bobcat box blade? Or Titan or Southern?

    I've read a lot of good reviews on the EA box blade, it is a few hundred more though.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    What's the purpose of the epoxy on that bucket? Just to keep the surface finish intact?

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Picked up some 20ft 5/16" G70 chain for the bucket hooks, another 6ft 5/16" G70 chain with a slip hook at one end, and a drawbar hook to pull out some really heavy stumps in inaccessible areas of my woods.

    Bucket thumb or grapple

    Thank you for sharing! I think I may try this set up after my EA forks show up. How do you like that Milwaukee metal saw? I debated on getting one of those vs. the Makita benchtop carbide saw once I run 220 in my shop again and start welding. Is that bucket thumb the 36"? Now THATS some...

    It's only new once.....

    That's the exact service I received 😂

    It's only new once.....

    Looks like a great machine - enjoy! That third function appears to be a Kubota kit, the land pride kits I've seen don't have that on-off button on them. The LA535 kit has hard lines but the one for the B series loader appears to be different. Either way, looks well organized and a clean install...

    Bucket thumb or grapple

    Another very clean install, thank you for sharing. I hope I can get away with bolting a thumb on later vs. welding but I have no idea how Stout or wide the EA frame is on their 2200lb pallet fork setup. If only I knew how many toys I'd want for this tractor before buying it I would have saved...

    Ended up ordering the EA, lead time is about 8-16 weeks, should have it by the time fall cleanup is due but I'll make use of the bucket and wheel barrow for now. Thank you all for the advice!

    B50 series w/ROPS owners, watch out for this...

    Now's a good time to upgrade to a hydraulic top link if you get the chance. @Daferris Holland top link recommendation for the B2650/LX2610 was around $259 IIRC. I saw this on a YouTube video a while ago, sorry to see it happen to you, but thank you for the reminder!

    Bucket thumb or grapple

    Your machine is quite a bit bigger than mine, what forks are you using? It also appears that you had to cut the headache rack to weld the thumb mount and then weld the headache rack supports over the thumb mount - am I seeing that correctly?

    I forgot about the exchange rate! You are correct - all your dollars are Loonies 😁

    Bucket thumb or grapple

    Those are priced very fairly, I appreciate the lead. I'll give them a shout tomorrow. 70 acres... That sounds like a dream come true 😁 I'm going to call them tomorrow - I'm curious what freight is going to cost being I'm in MI and they're in NC. I'll call my dealer too just to see if he still...

    Bucket thumb or grapple

    I did see the land pride 1200lb forks and my dealer had them in stock when I picked up my unit. If they're any good, and adjustable, I might have to go that route to avoid waiting. Honestly speaking, the LX2610 can only lift 1k anyway, anything rated higher than 1-2k seems overkill. That is a...
