That would work !:D

I couldn't tell from the brochure how much difference there would be from the AG to the R4 tires. (I probably can't read it !):confused:

Here's another bonehead move - I washed the interior of an engine compartment and engine with a hose and degreaser and had left the dipstick / plug out of the FWD transmission unit !!:eek:

Does anyone know how much difference there would be in overall width of the tractor if you had the R4 Industrial tires vs the standard AG tires ? (This would be for an L series - L3400 / L3800).

I have debated putting this thread on the OTT forum - and I'm sure that anyone who has been operating a tractor for a period of time will already know this - but I'm sure there's still some "newbies" out there - that can benefit from this story - it was passed on to me by another Kubota owner...

Twinnine - I will be sure to post lots of pictures of mine - once I get it. Not sure when - I would guess in the April timeframe - hopefully not too much later. I actually think the L2800 (now the L3400) would suit my needs - but my wife - as well as other tractor owners - have told me to pick...

I'm not the expert - but I'll throw my advice at you anyway. I'm sure some of the others on this forum can shed more light on all this. The B series is a smaller tractor - though some of the larger B tractors come close to the ones in the lower end of the L series. I don't know a lot about...

The specs indicate that the blades and cutting edge are the same - but the most obvious differences are the way the upright portion - that connects to the top link of the 3PT - is constructed. Still wondering if anyone has had any issues with this particular piece in KK vs LP ... The prices...

Fiddlindave - thanks for the advice. I've researched the heck out of this issue and decided to go with more tractor - more HP and get the L3800. I can get a brand new one - out the door - for about $19,300 (with FEL). That's what I will do - soon!:D:D

Sorry about that - here are the websites for each of these: http://www.kingkutter.com/ProProducts.asp?ProProd=ProRBSeries http://www.landpride.com/products/prod_rb/prod_rb15.html

Thanks Wildfire. My dealer didn't mention that - but you know - headlights are a major item of discussion. I guess I was getting too detailed on my analysis. But thanks for the clarification.

For what's its worth - I just got a price on a new L3800 with Quick Detach FEL - new - out the door for $19,100. That's about 38 HP and more than the L2800. Just FYI

Just an update - talked to the dealer last weekend and the "advertisement" that the new L series has "two headlights" is almost false advertising. Both the old and new models have two bulbs - one on each side. I'm surprised that Kubota would "advertise" this as being something "new". I'll...

I'm going to be getting an L3800HST soon and now thinking about what Back (Rear) Blades to get. Looks like my options are either LandPride or KingKutter. I'm looking for a blade that is 84" long - has an off-set capability and can tilt (though the tilt isn't mandatory). By what I can tell -...

That's what I heard too. Its the same - but just dyed to the "revenuers" can trace it. :D

We need ServiceDeptVic on this one. Could it be air in the lines?

I don't know about Dex-Cool in a Kubota - but GM has had it's share of problems with Dex Cool in their vehicles. It causes leaks in many models with aluminum heads.

Yep - having a tractor in bad weather - like having a new pickup - you get a whole new batch of friends.:D We're getting clobbered here in Michigan too....

I agree with Bulldog - everybody I have talked to says the quick detach option is something that they'd never be without. I plan on getting it on my new L3800 for sure.

I have to add my 2 cents to this also - I have researched these a lot and talked to lots of people who consistently gave me the advice to buy more tractor - rather than less. I started off thinking about an L2800, but slowly realized that the L3800 will provide me with more HP and like others...
