    L2050 No Fuel Line Valve

    Kubota Quick attach for L3010 pictures

    Nice setup, It looks like it adds a few inches to the length, What is the center to center pin measurement between the original and new hookup points, does the additional length also equate to some additional lift height gain.

    MX5100 HST 4X4 safety switch question

    My position is safety switches were put on a machine for a reason and disabling them is not suggested, However having said that switches can malfunction and circuits need to be tested so sometimes a safety switch needs to be bypassed to determine if it is functioning correctly, The below...

    Considering the low price and the availability of a ROPS from Kubota I would say that was the best route to take, However if one was not available or if the price was prohibitive and you are a proficient welder then I see no problem with fabricating your own as even limited roll over protection...
