Not filled. I prefer removable weight. Taking the tire on and off was the reason you ask? I just used my jack to get the height just right. It was much less of a pain than I anticipated. It will still move easy if filled……just don’t drop it on it’s side. That would be tragic. I was encouraged...

Within the last week someone was selling a bent Wicked Grapple on Facebook. Certainly still very usable and it was a good deal. No shade but they aren’t indestructible. Maybe it was from abuse or simply bad luck. I am shocked that after some of my shenanigans that my (other brand) grapple is...

For the LX2610 just do a search for the B2650. That should hold you over until the LX WSM is out there.

I’m glad to hear that my incessant babbling was of some value! I had a B series sized JD tractor on a previous 5 acre property and it was a workhorse. It did all I ever asked of it but sometimes just barely. I knew with this larger property with all of the wooded areas that my old tractor could...

IMO, great choice on the tractor! I have 11 acres and feel it is just the right size for me. It has been a beast for clearing downed trees which was main reason for purchase. With a grapple I can do in an hour what would take me a day without……all whilst not straining my back. It sounds like...

Oh, I get it and I would certainly rather buy BUT I simply don’t think it is the right move just now considering how much I have spent recently with the tractor and grapple purchase. The grapple was easy to justify since I’ll need it over a long period of time and I don’t think rental is even an...

Well, the first “main” path is cleared. It’s a rutted mess but the last of the logs are cut from the path. What is laying in the woods can stay there for the wildlife to use. I’ll box blade it when it dries out. That’ll be cake. This took me less than 6 hours total on this path for about 30...

Double post dumbness.

Before…… After…… Not finished with clearing this trail but a nice dent. Still have maybe a dozen trees blocking then I’ll have to fix the ruts which should be quick work with the box blade.

Nice setup……beats dragging!

I got the chainsaw fired up and sharpened today. We’re gonna try to tackle clearing one of our main trails this weekend. We have 11 acres and border a 70-ish acre nature conservatory (whatever that is) that the owners encourage us to use. It’s great for dog walking and mountain bike riding. Our...

I looked at the BX series but I had a JD 2320 previously at another property. That is similar to a Kubota B series. It did what I needed but sometimes barely so I wanted a size up from that for our newer place with twice the property. Oddly enough JD really doesn’t make anything comparable to...

I’m pretty impressed with the tractor and the grapple. I did a few things that were probably pushing the equipment a bit more than I usually would as a test and to get a feel for my new equipment and all is well. The first pic is a tree that was too long for me to move anywhere due to living...

I walked the property today. Still too soft for work. Stuck at 2.x hours but installed grill guard today. LEDs for the ROPS and wiring shows up tomorrow.

I’d clean up what bothers you, spray paint anything exposed then Fluid Film/WoolWax it and put it to work. I see nothing to make too much of a fuss about.

I built your tractor on the Kubota site with the 3rd function kit and that’s the part number they included in the quote. It could be wrong but it’s all I could find. Good luck!

Here’s the Kubota kit (I believe). 1 in stock. https://www.hoober.com/kub-l2265-third-function-kit Here’s another Kubota kit that appears to be in stock. https://www.rockymountainkubota.com/equipment/used-equipment/kubota-l2265-21617 I believe WR Long makes the kits EA sells.

So yours is only a day older than mine. BTW…….for what our dealer wanted to install the 3rd function you are much better off doing it yourself.

I was eyeballing that same chipper. Unfortunately I was unable to find a ton of info on it but what I did find has me passing on it. For new I’d be at about $3k for the size and features I want. The few that pop up used the sellers ask near new prices so not worth it for me. There was a good...
