Looking for a narrow pin-on bucket to fit an L48. Prefer 8" but could use anything 12" or narrower. Thank you.

With the current freak show characters running the commonwealth, one should expect anything. Here's an example of just how goofy things are getting. What’s next? Maybe I don’t want to know. Pennsylvania will be requiring vendors to utilize 26% “participation” of minority businesses in many...

A couple months ago I bought the complete filter kit (oil, 2 hydro and air) and almost enough Super UDT2 at Messicks. I was sure there was a part jug of UDT2 in the shed from when I did the L3200 - but was wrong. That meant a quick trip to pick up a 2-1/2 gallon jug of the nectar to top it off...

Had a large dying tree that grew out of the bank of our creek. Cut most of it down last week and had the trunk to deal with today. That provided a chance to play. Never been real good scampering around trees - and I slowed down a bit after my 70th birthday. Wanting to stay dry meant setting...

Reader's Digest version. Had a set of forks made to fit pin on bucket of the L3200 that we sold, so needed another set. This time used a QA frame so they'll fit the L4240 or anything else with QA. Used 48" bale spears, a frame I picked up cheap and scraps I had stashed. Works great. Needs...

After spending a little over 60 hours on this tractor the only thing I wanted to change besides the work lights so far was the angle of the seat bottom. Kubota seems to prefer a forward tilt for the seats. Two previous Kubotae needed addressed almost immediately. This one was less irritating...

Past Problems: * ROPS mounted work lights attracted bugs in warm weather and probably because I wear glasses, provided glare year-round. This was true with halogens and LED's. * LED's mounted on the ROPS and cab roof made it difficult to see where the cut / uncut grass met. I'm guessing it has...

Got a "new" lawn mower. Last year there was a 91" Caroni we picked up as a fixer-upper. Finally got it completed. Replaced all the baffles on the underside, blades and a few bearings. Paint is XO-Rust with hardener. Orange is Allis Chalmers Orange. Gray is 50/50 Ford gray and black. Both...

Although one wouldn't think so, the L4240. I was using it to mow on Monday night and it seemed to turn tighter circles around stuff and was a lot more nimble than expected. The other pleasant surprise is the R4 tires didn't print as much as the R4's on the L3200 or the R1's on the Ford 1210...

Both of the Kubotas still had their winter attachments on so I started mowing with the 60" RFM on the little Ford. After doing the neighbor's place and starting on mine, the sun was setting and the wind was getting pretty uncomfortable. Since the project to refurb the 91" Caroni RFM (for the...

Was finally able to spend some time doing the standard mods to the bucket on the new-to-us L4240HSTC. This is the third FEL bucket of mine to receive an angle iron chain slot of some sort and a cutting edge. This cutting edge is more of a wearing edge in case it gets pressed into service for...

At the tractor ends of each lift arm, there's a bracket I'm not familiar with. What was it used for? See the orange piece in the faint red diamond. Backhoe perhaps? Thanks

Just in case there's a clean used tractor out there waiting for me to see it. Having a cab with A/C seems more appealing now than it did only 6 years ago when we had the L3200 delivered. The 20,000 BTU heater takes care of winter. Doors lift off for warm weather, and the shade provided by the...

I'm blessed with being able to do pretty much anything in the shops at work, and the guys are more than willing to lend a hand when it's needed. The largest example is when I built my cab there about 5 years ago. Even so, I really do enjoy tinkering at home and have accumulated enough tooling...

It withstood 15 years of hard use, but this last snowstorm did it in. It's a 6' blade from TSC that spent 10 years on a B7500 and then the last 5 on a Ford 1210. Till now, the only thing I've done to it was applying orange paint. The most amazing part is that only 2 of the 7 welds holding the...

This key is from a diesel generator and I need a spare. The key has one nub on the outside and two on the inside of the barrel. Any ideas? I tried to call the generator manufacturer but the line didn't work. Sent an email but not sure that will work either. Thanks.

My one BIL has a pasture he wants to maintain and cut to approx. 8" when he mows. He has a nice rotary mower that works OK but it does leave some windrows. He is looking for something like a rear discharge RFM that can be adjusted to leave 8" standing. We looked at my RFM and the tallest it...

Yesterday while playing in the snow, the Kubota wouldn't start after shutting it down to replace a shear pin. The clutch pedal didn't feel like it went in the whole way. When I pulled the floor mat back to look, there was a small pin that slid to the left blocking the pedal's travel. The pin...

3 years old with around 350 hours on it. A couple times when the key was twisted far enough to make the starter run, it made that sort of loud buzzing/machine gun sound that is often a sign of a weak battery. Battery tested as good as new at the auto supply place. A short jumper on the...
