    Anyone using Pallet Forks with a Man Cage?

    I’m with flip, I definitely don’t recommend it, but I am guilty too. I have a buddy that is an ex logger. Had him in just the loader bucket as high as it would go with an 11 ft pole saw trimming branches around my power lines to the house. A cage and forks sounds like a much better idea but if...

    Kubota 2501 owners - tractor idle question

    I’m not a tractor expert but have an l3200 which would be the previous series to yours. Being the 2501 is a mechanical system I wouldn’t think it would have a high and low idle. Mine doesn’t do that. Idles the same rpm weather hot or cold, which is around 7-800. Plenty of 2501 owners here though...

    Do I have a hog problem?

    Lol, wish these would fly away. I want the wing sauce cause while your out shooting pigs I’ll be eating chicken wings. I’m not a hunter. I do have guns and just shoot for fun, never got into hunting. Don’t need another expensive hobby. I did go buy a couple cameras and put them out just now...

    Do I have a hog problem?

    Was out walking with the kids looking for deer tracks (they love looking for tracks) and came across what appears to be damage from wild hogs. What do y’all say? The way the sun was I couldn’t get the best pics. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Filters question

    I can’t speak from the kubota side of this l, but I deal with ford and Mazda everyday. Not that engine failures are often but when they do happen under warranty the filter is usually the least of their worries. The manufactures want proof of maintence period (ex: oil change records regardless...

    Would you use these tires?

    I wanted to try to fish there when I was up there, spent most my time on the river and mazonia/braidwood. Don’t miss it though besides the family.

    Would you use these tires?

    I would run them on mine. Have seen much worse on cars and trucks that haul and run down the highway at 80mph. Btw what part of IL you from if you don’t mind me asking. I was born and raised in the corn and bean fields about 30-40 miles north of Peoria.

    Would you use these tires?

    So I did go look and they are stamped like a car tire minus the dot code on a car tire. Mine are stamped 4614,meaning they were made in the 46th week off 2014. First two digits being week of the year and last two being the year. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Would you use these tires?

    For a green tractor,sure they be fine lol. Just kidding. I would think you would be fine, especially with tubes in them. Is your tractor stored inside or covered? They might get worse sitting out in the sun. I have seen car/truck tires look way worse then that and people still drive them. Do...

    Starter relay

    Is it a rapid clicking noise when trying to start? Also if you are just jumping the load side of the relay you aren’t ruling out the control side of the relay. Not familiar with your tractor but is there another relay on it that is the same you could swap out and retest?

    Clamp on pallet forks

    I made the mistake of getting the clamp on forks. I would not recommend them. They worked good for my original intention of just moving small brush piles to my burn spot, but then I started using them to haul heavier items and they have bent the bucket. I already had bends in the bucket from...
