I don't keep up with used prices to be of help to you but I'd check around a bit myself, perhaps see if tractorhouse. com or the like has anything for comparison. What year are these? The price you mention is about what a new one went for in 2008-09

"Those" are the most valuable possessions you'll ever have!!

Just get one of those 18 gallon foot locker or whatever ya want to call them from Walmart or the like. Only concerns are capacity to hold over the 15 gallons and height so you can carefully slide it out. I used a cut open 1 gallon container to empty the drain oil back into the 5 gal. pails the...

I'm just a little further down the "hours" road than you are and I've used 10/30 year round with no problems. The Rotella 10/30 seems to be a little harder to find 'round here, IIRC I found it at Tractor Supply.

I bought my aluminum canopy from the dealer where I bought the tractor (Mason in Blueridge). They sold that in addition to the standard Kubota model and it was less expensive. I figured as well, knowing my luck with overhead branches a metal one would probably work better for me. I know Mason...

The only switch I see on a quick look-see is the engagement switch that is located under the cover by the engagement lever itself. If the computer doesn't know the pto is engaged via this switch I'd imagine it could well cause the symptoms you're experiencing. The rest of the system is...

For what it's worth I think you need to either do some basic tracing with a meter to see exactly what is or is not getting power. It's the only way you're ever going to get it fixed. If that doesn't happen to be one of your skills then perhaps you can get some local help. A good start would...

Do you have this problem starting all the time or is it a once and a while thing?

I don't have a solution but I can tell you my 6040 has delays going into gear and I would say it is by design. Mine is still under 100hrs btw. The amount of delay is different depending on gear, the higher the gear to softer/longer it comes in. My guess is they intend this to soften the load...

I can think we've all felt like that from time to time. I know I certainly feel that way about the hydraulics on my log splitter. That said what you're wanting to do is probably the worst solution to needing a larger piece of equipment or more power on the job. I can personally guarantee from...

The drawings won't show you the "actual" number of shims required, it's just an example only. Like said already the end-play spec is what is important and unless the bearings are showing signs of eminent demise there's no real reason to think the play has changed enough to matter. The end-play...

These guys are in west KY but you might want to give them a call. Otherwise internet searching for tractor graveyards....... http://www.wkytp.com/

Sounds good, especially if it'll make maintenance easier. For myself it wouldn't work so well though, my fittings are on the underside of the spindles. As ofter as I wrap something around the spindles it would destroy any kind of tubing under there. Now if you have a nice clean mow area that...

I just changed my front axle last week as well. I found it helps immensely if you put the front up and remove the front tires. Much easier for draining. You can also, when setting the axle on stands have one side a good bit higher than the other. That way the axle tube will drain a lot...

The hydraulics on my own 7040 can be a bit irritating at times. At idle movement is sluggish for sure, just physics at work, pump output and all that. That said the system should be pretty responsive at a fast idle speed (1200 or so) and by 1500 it should be "snappy". I've yet to run my motor...

Not to be a stick in the mud here but I think I'd also want capacity specs on your model for comparison (to Kubota) purposes. As well it sure would be nice if you were able to get a testimonial from another customer. May well be a great unit, just saying. How does the price on this one...

I agree with Bulldogs accessment as well. Not a bad deal in any way, it seems like everything is so much more expensive but, our dollar isn't worth ..... that's the real problem. I have the feeling the list on your set-up is pretty close to 50K, certainly high 40's. If that the dealer is...

It may be just a one time deal but, more than likely there is a problem developing. It may be simply too many devices drawing on the fuse at one time or it may be a wire that is occasionally rubbing on a ground and shorting. Also may be a little mouse has gotten in somewhere and nibbled on...

The Valvoline Unitrac appears to be pretty much the same as Kubota UDT although it doesn't list it per sec. It does list it as a cross to JD 20c and MF Hytran so I'd say as long as it was supposed to have hydraulic in there the Valvoline is pretty well middle of the road. Is the 3pt the only...

Asbug, looks like this thread died shortly after it started but.... as you revived it for local to Chat. purposes, I'm about an hour northeast of Chattanooga. Maybe enough could get together for a meet and eat sometime. Ron
