    SSQA to plow/3pt adapter/trailer hitch

    Moved around my flat deck and the horse trailer. The SSQA-V Worked perfectly. Although next time I will use my other drawbar. That one sits too low so I can’t see the ball sitting down. Even adjusted to it top position it sits just out of view. I also was able to lift the flat deck front up to a...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    There was almost and explosion that luckily only turned into a huge investigation after a friend of mine hit a natural gas line putting in fence post. Lucky for her she had the paperwork with all the drawings. There wasn’t a single item listed anywhere in her back yard. All utilities were...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Sounds like when I went to get my chains. Txted the wife that they actually had 3 in stock.. when I picked her up later she said “I’m guessing they only have 1 chain now?”

    chains and binders

    These tie down loops are rated for 5000lbs they line up with 2 frame holes so I will have to get some grade 8 bolts. going to weld 4 of them on the trailer frame inside the fenders because the trailer isn’t just for towing the tractor. Got my chains cut and 5/16 slip hooks put on one end of...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Looks great!! I still have to wait to level my driveway. Ice is just finally off my pond. Gotta wait for the rest of the frost to get out of the ground before I can start on the driveway.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Rear tie downs installed. 5/16 grade 70 chain. Was originally going to make a new plate but since I wanted to cut the chains anyways. Figured I might as well just take the center 4 links out.

    Frame bolts. Is this normal?

    I have to drop this plate off to a friend of mine who is going to make me one with tie downs. These bolts are not a snug fit in the holes, same as those frame bolts. I tried to take a picture of how loose they fit but it doesn’t show the angle very will. I will measure them with a caliper later.

    Frame bolts. Is this normal?

    Later today I’m going to pull the backhoe and loader off to remove the weight. Then pull the bolts out to see if either of those solutions will work.

    Gate valve or ball vales? What's your choice.

    1/4 turn ball valve 100%, every Reno I do, I use pex and replace as much copper as is possible.

    Frame bolts. Is this normal?

    It’s in the manual to torque those bolts to 150ft lbs every 50 hrs. I’m at 106, and planned on doing the 100hr check Sunday +- should be more than 6hrs on the machine. The other loader frame bolts are 108ft lbs.

    Frame bolts. Is this normal?

    Talked to the dealer and showed them the pictures. They said to just torque the bolts.

    Frame bolts. Is this normal?

    With the amount of rust on there, that would have had to have happened a while ago. It’s got warranty and full coverage insurance. i already sent the pics to the dealer. I use my tractor but I don’t abuse it. About the worse thing that’s happened to it, has been getting it stuck, and I’ve never...

    Frame bolts. Is this normal?

    They are bolts. all 4 bolts are still complete. ya I don’t know why they would be slotted and the machine only has 106hrs on it. So they sure as hell shouldn’t be worn out.

    Frame bolts. Is this normal?

    im not going to do anything till I hear back from the dealer. They may want to see it as is. Let you guys know what they say about it. They are pretty good about emails so I should have an answer back tomorrow.

    Frame bolts. Is this normal?

    Pulled the front tire off again. (See my other thread about fixing a flat). noticed the frame bolts aren’t lined up with the factory paint. Should I loosen these off and try to line them back up andre torque them? right side Left side
