I don't like the high oil prices either but how much did the tractor cost? Is saving a few dollars in oil worth chancing the life of the tractor. Who knows, Maybe Kubota designed these certain models to loose oil for a reason. Maybe they need the clean oil added to the system to get them thru...

That's all we had when I was growing up was IH equipment. It was very good to us for many years. These new ones don't seem to have the quality that the older one had. Case heavy equipment has it's place in the market for sure. I know quite a few contractors that won't run anything but a case...

Just make sure you get the correct color of paint. T/S does carry both the Kubota colors of orange.

Vic is right as usual. If it is still under warranty I would make the dealer give up the Super UDT just for principal if nothing else. That is what is in it so they should have to top it off with the same fluid in my opinion. I went thru the same thing on my L 3000 when it was new and had to do...

I worked with a guy that welded like that. He called it gorilla weld, Ugly but tuff. It looks like a bunch of chewed bubble gum to me. Do you have access to a plasma cutter? That would make quick work of this problem and really wouldn't create to much unwanted heat.

I don't know if a hay grapple would stand up to tree and brush removal or not. I will suggest a attachment to look into though. Go to Case equ. site, skid steer attachments, root rake. I saw one of these working on a big track skid steer and it was unbelievable what it would do. He could stick...

What kind of work were you doing on the slope? Were you on three wheels or not? It makes a big difference what implement you have on the back as to how they act on banks. It will help you quite a bit if you are in 4WD also and remember be ready to turn down the hill if it's possible to do so...

Good point to add in Handy. I throw this one other thing in also. I didn't know about this until I started looking at boxes over the net. They do make different ones for 1/2 and 3/4 ton trucks. The ones for 3/4 ton are about 3 or 4 inches wider than a box for a 1/2 ton truck. I think that either...

Handy, My Granddad bought 5 of those from TVA that came off the raccoon mt job so I'm sure that your wifes uncle probably did spend some time either on one of them or at least around it anyway. I'll try my best to give you a call very soon. Been busier than a three peckered dog here lately but...

You said a mouth full on that one. I really hated to see that happen. IH tractor are not what they used to be to say the least.

Thomasone, I have never tried the 10w30 diesel oil yet but I have a barrel on the way as we speak. I have always run the 5w30 HDD in my diesels so far but it really is expensive. But, if I loose all my MPG gain by changing over to the 10w30 I will switch back to the HDD. I gained 4 to 5 MPG...

Land pride make one that is 22 ft wide. I could mowe with my 9000 with that one and really get done in a hurry.

You said it on the weatherguard boxes. My former boss put a aluminum weatherguard box in his truck and filled it full of tools. Wore that truck out and we put straps around it, lifted it out with a crain and set it in his new truck. Long story short, the tool box now is in the forth truck, not...

I don't know anything about those drills except that they were working when they were put in the shed and that was at least 40 years ago.

I figured you guys would appreciate that little nugget since most all of us like older toys as well as the new ones. Pat331, I would have to say that you are right on the money about some peoples strong following of IH heavy equipment. Alot of big construction companies started out with...

Finally, Another Amsoil believer. I can fully understand your faith in Amsoil and I had to prove it to myself as well. If I was you I would run the 30 weight oil. If you want the very best you can get go with the 5w30 HDD oil. Myself I am switching over to the 10w30 diesel oil in all my stuff...

I know, it's not a Kubota but I was wearing my Kubota hat

I have one that will hold about 150lbs of grass seed in it. I don't remember how much fertilizer it will hold but I used it on my B 7100 with no problem. If you know how much weight you tractor can handle safely with say a rottary cutter on the back then just keep that in mind when you start...

Hi Will, I have had steel and aluminum both and I prefer the alu tank better. The biggest reason is that there is no worry of rust with the alu tank. I have one in both my trucks now, a 55 gal. (L) step steel in one and a 110 gal. (L) step alu in the other. The ones with the tool box built in...

My thoughts on this is that the designers of the tractor intended on it being ran at the rated PTO speed when it is being used and the ground speed is to be controlled with the HST pedal. If they didn't want you to control the ground speed with the pedal it would have been a go or stop pedal for...
