    A BIG Thank You.....

    For giving us a place to shoot the bull and talk about the tractors without neccesarily having to have a problem or need to ask about implements. I'll start off by saying I wish I had the money right now to buy this: http://nh.craigslist.org/grd/1653643288.html

    Going Implement CrAZy

    I've been pretty busy with my coops and birds since I last posted. I keep my eyes open on Craig's List for tractors in my area and of course implements on the cheap, and Kubotas seem to be very popular along with a lot of classics. I'm thinking about a tiller and rake to go along with all of...

    Going Implement CrAZy

    dusty-t, Does time on a mini excavator count? About 4 years ago we had someone trench and put in proper drainage area around our house to try to stop the wet floor in the basement. Since the excavator was here I asked if I could use it to try to get to some logs by making an access. It didn't...

    B6000 advice

    CCW PTO? This is a newbie question, but is that unusual? Does it make a difference in how the 3 PT hitch raises or lowers a load?

    ptwyz, Let's see . . . . . . Pulling stumps of several different sizes. Cleaning up the "wood lot" section of our property. Installing a pond kit. Digging a water feature, or pond in a wet area of our property. Putting in an access on the other end of our property including drainage...

    Well, I'm waiting for my new Woods LS84 Loader and the ROPS, and the correct Sub Frame Mounting Kit. If I could just throw it on I probably would have. :D

    Kubota L210 (Warning: Not strictly on topic)

    I saw this ad on Craig's List for the Albany, NY area and figured someone might want to know abou it. http://albany.craigslist.org/grd/1632960722.html I hope I'm not making enemies of any of the moderators for posting this here, but I would like to say in my defense that this forum needs a...

    B6000 advice

    Hello, I'm sorry to highjack this topic, but since I found a B6000E I'm interested in I was thinking maybe you'd all like a look and give me your opinon as to what it might be worth. I'm not going to post the asking price. Please let me know if you see anything wrong with it. (Besides the color)

    Got Taken To Spend Someone Else's Money

    Well, I wouldn't really call that spending someone else's money, but it's a great lesson in bartering your experience. I'd rather have someone give me $XX,XXX and tell me what they need to use it for and come back with everything they need with $X,XXX or at least $XXX to spare, and the equipment...

    Going Implement CrAZy

    I found out that I need to order a different sub-frame to use the backhoe with my B8200, so tomorrow is the big day. I'll be spending more money on the loader, backhoe subframe, ROPS, than I wanted to spend on a tractor to begin with and that doesn't include the original price of the tractor...

    B5200 flasher trouble

    Is this a common Oragne Tractor problem? The flashers on my '84 B8200 don't work either. Another little project.

    I got the backhoe home today and here's a couple of pictures. From what I saw of the tractor it came off of the 3 Pt needs to reattached to be used as the lower link assembly is removed.

    B-21 3 point

    Check to see if the snow blower is in the category class for your 3 pt hitch. If you don't know what category your 3 pt hitch is, look at tractordata.com or Kubota.com.

    Welders and welding

    Skeets, It all depends on how you learn best. Some people need to read things to understand them and others can just watch it once and know what they're doing and yet others need to do it themselves and pick it up. I first used a welder in 9th or 10th grade while I was in the Ag program...

    Going Implement CrAZy

    I bought my B8200D on Tuesday of last week, and I bought a safety triangle (SMV) sign yesterday while ordering the manuals and getting information on a loader and backhoe. Next weekend, Saturday, is Vermont's newly established annual NO-TAX day so after pricing everything out I decided I could...

    What tractor is like what other tractor??

    I know what you're trying to say. You'd like to know which tractor model proceded a current model. Same horsepower and relative features carried into the new models. I'd like to know too.

    Maintenance and introduction

    Theekillerbee it was right where you had the arrow pointed. It's funny that two so-called specialists weren't even close. Thank you. Now to get a wiring diagram and figure out the lights, and I hope I can figure out what's up with Diesel types. I'll try to get pictures of my tractor for...
