    Hydraulic Thumb for the Kubota BX25-D

    After I did the install install on Land Pride grapple and third function valve my little brain got to thinking and I've decided it was time for the mechanical thumb to go on the BX. Yes it worked well but it was a royal pain having to get on and off the machine to set the thumb up. I decided...

    Land Pride grapple on the BX.

    :D I'll see what I can do lol. Thanks! Ya sometimes there's no point in reinventing the wheel so we bought it. I had it in my mind to design and build a complete aluminum grapple for the BX until Land Pride came out with this so I figured I'd get it. I spent two weeks off and on last...

    Land Pride grapple on the BX.

    Well wifey bought me a new Land Pride grapple and 3rd function kit for the BX. I took the day off and did the install. I was very impressed with the quality and the speed of it operating. Looks like it's going to be a nice addition to the BX.

    Brush Guard for Cab Tractor

    That's some nice work there. It took a lot of time to do that. There was a lot of cuts in it and these things never are as easy at they seem. I'd like to work next to your brother, throw around a few ideas and see what comes out of it. He should have built the van for the "A" team lol Tip my...

    L3940 - Backup Camera Add On

    Your welcome Lowell. I think they should all come with back up cameras. Very safe feature to haven my opinion. The inferred camera is great in complete darkness. Once it gets dark the camera will switch over to black & White but you can see as if it was daylight. Super system. My system can...

    L3940 - Backup Camera Add On

    Welcome to the site. Looks great. Your going to enjoy having that back there. I added my first camera to our 4240 back in 2008 then added it to the 5740 in 2011. I put one in the truck as well. Ours got the inferred feature that I like. The camera is mounted on a special bracket I adapted to...

    Tractor weight and concrete floor

    It wouldn't even be an issue in my mind. That floor can handle that easily in my opinion. I know plenty of people who park their tractors on wooden floors with no issues.

    L5740 block heater ?

    Why all the guess work when wanting to perform a job on your machines such as in this case? Whenever I negotiate the purchase a new machine a workshop and parts manual is ALWAYS part of the sale. If the dealer can't supply then I simply walk away. They pay for themselves on the first job.

    Moving Day.....

    You put a little TLC into that place like a flick of paint and you'd be surprised just how nice it can look. Hey when I was staring out wifey and I had one small child, one rocking chair and one mattress and a run down apartment. I worked over time every day for eight months then one day I...

    Grammar Air Ride Seat 5740

    It's only a few seconds to adjust. Just hit the button down by the gauge and with your feet off the floor just watch the gauge and when it gets into the green your good to go. It's a little tricky to see the gauge but it's a great system.

    Grammar Air Ride Seat 5740

    You give me way to much credit but thanks for it :) Glad you got it done. You have way more patience than I do to see that seat in the box for so long. Hope you get to try it soon. Remember, when you sit in the seat, look down at the gauge on it and get the pressure up to the green section and...
