    Deck mounted clevis on bush hog

    Re: Deck mounted clevis on bush hog UPDATE Thanks to all who responded. I ended up going a different direction after thinking about it for a while. I drove my front wheels into a shallow ditch and installed my shortest top link. This changed the angle enough so I could easily and safely get...

    Deck mounted clevis on bush hog

    Thanks to all who responded. I ended up going a different direction after thinking about it for a while. I drove my front wheels into a shallow ditch and installed my shortest top link. This changed the angle enough so I could easily and safely get under the cutter. As you can see, I used a...

    Deck mounted clevis on bush hog

    Deck mounted clevis on bush hog UPDATE I ran over some wire with my bush hog and it's going to require some effort to remove. I was going to turn it over with my loader and a chain today but there isn't a good way of attaching the chain. I want to lay it on its side up against a tree so I...

    Square head bolt size

    I need to remove this bolt to grease this area. Anybody know what size it is? I tried to remove it with a wrench but it started to strip. I need to get a socket. [/URL][/IMG]

    The day I almost died on my Kubota...

    Thanks for taking the time to post your story. I purchased a craigslist spreader recently and the shaft was stuck and wouldn't expand. We pulled it apart with two vehicles and I removed the cover. Because I was in a hurry I didn't put the cover back on and we used it all day long. Your...

    Front Mount Fertilizer Spreader

    Nice job. You will instantly know if you have a stoppage. Same thing I did on my ATV.

    Dumb finance questions

    I keep thinking to myself, "I ought to just pay this thing off!".....but hell, WHY? the payment is the same whether I pay it all or little at a time. It is my understanding that once you pay off the Kubota loan you also lose your Kubota insurance. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

    Piranha tooth bar install

    Loosen the bolts and put a 2x4 across the teeth. Beat it with a hammer. It should seat against the bucket edge. Then re-tighten the bolts.

    A cultipacker is on my list. Does it compress the dead grass to the ground?

    game plot

    I have been successfully experimenting with a no till approach called "throw and mow." Spray the plot with herbicide, wait two weeks for a good kill, broadcast your seed and fertilizer then mow the grass down over the seed. That's it. Some folks I know use a drag instead of a bush hog to lay the...

    Ken's bolt on hooks install question

    Started to install my new hooks on my L3800 w/a quick attach bucket and had a question. The pic shows the only position that I can mount them flush to the bucket. If I move them forward to go through the thickest part of the bucket, the front edge of the plate will not be contacting the bucket...

    No emergency brake light on the dash. I can't count how many times I've driven off with the brake on.

    Disc max with L3901

    I have an L3800HST 4x4 with a FEL. The manual says max disk weight 650 lbs. My disk has 20' blades, weighs about 650 lbs and is 5.5' wide. I found that I could not lift my disk high enough with the factory top link and 20" blades. I purchased an extended top link from Tractor Supply. This solved...

    Debris under the fuel cap

    I'm always afraid the debris that collects under the fuel cap is going to fall into the fuel tank. I've thought about putting a ziplock bag and a rubber band around it to keep it clean. Anybody got a better idea? [/URL][/IMG]
