    Anyone add a platform/cradle to the front of a utility trailer to rest the FEL bucket on? The purpose to gain a little more room on an 18' trailer when an implement is attached to the rear.

    Adding a hydraulic top link..........?

    My Brother recently purchased a used M4800SU that came with factory installed rear hydraulics. We are wondering if this Top Link would work with his tractor? Anything in particular to be considered when adding a Top Link (other than category of course)? Thank You in advance for any...

    Location of fuse panel and fusible link/slow blow fuse on 2010 M4800SU

    My brother just recently purchased the above tractor. We have ordered a repair manual for it, but won't have it for awhile. Meantime, I was wondering if anyone knew where the fuse panel is/might be located. We are wanting to check all fuses, etc.... Currently, the only thing not working is the...

    Explain this feature and function please.......?

    My Brother bought a used tractor (M4800SU) and it came with what looks like a factory intalled rear remote. I've been unable to locate a User's Manual for this particular model. Hence my question: On the FEL control there is what looks to be 'Diverter' of some type? (see pics attached). What...

    What type and size of rock/other for this wet hillside?

    I have a soggy spot in a Spring Branch that I've been throwing brick into (have a lot more brick to put on it) trying to create a hard bottom or short path across it. The hillside leading down to it (see pic) is not real steep but is literally a slowly seeping 'spring'. It varies in wetness...

    L2350DT Steering Wheel Removal

    Needing to replace some seals in my steering column (oil coming up through top) but am having trouble removing the steering wheel. I assume the steering shaft is splined, but can't tell if it is tapered or not. I have tried penetrating oil, lightly using a pickle fork underneath the steering...

    OOPS................

    Thought I could get across this little muddy spot without the mower dragging in the mud and acting like a 600 lb. anchor. I was wrong. I don't get the tractor stuck very often, but I'll have to winch this out tomorrow morning. Had to walk about 1/2 mile back to the house...for my mistake...

    Informal Skeet Shoot.

    Going to have a couple of Old Friends over this weekend to visit and shoot a little informal skeet (as out in the pasture...with a thrower). Should be fun. Weather is nice (here) this time of year. Pretty sure I've got enough Clay Birds. ;) But I checked my ammo lockers....and found them a...

    My Dentist of 30 years sent me a letter.........

    Pretty much out the Blue. Said he was closing his practice here (Deep East Texas) and moving himself and wife to Montana. I have to wonder if that was a well thought out decision? Pretty sure once he experiences a Montana 'Winter' he might have second thoughts. In recent years a number of...

    Block Heater L2350 question

    Perhaps it is self evident....I don't know. I have ordered a Block Heater for my Kubota L2350DT. I can start it in cold weather (sub 30°F temps) but it takes a few minutes of running the glow plugs and cranking the engine. Engine will fire, quickly die, repeat....until it finally warms up...

    Help I.D. hydraulic connector please.

    I am wanting to purchase a ready made pressure gauge to check my hydraulic pressure and have found one with a handy hose extension. However....I am not sure what size/type the connectors are on my tractor (1996 Kubota L2350DT). Does anyone know what they are? I know I will need to order the...

    Avert your eyes..............

    All those squeamish to things not the color 'Orange'. ;) My poor old 4' Box Blade was looking kind of sad after many years of hard use. So I decided to sand blast it, check all the welds and then hit it with a coat of new paint.

    Adding Hay 'Spear' to Hay 'Fork'........

    I don't use the Hay Fork on my compact tractor that much (for moving hay bales). Normally use my larger tractor with front mounted hay spear. But on occasion I will move a bale to an area up a fairly steep hill and the smaller tractor goes up that narrow 'trail' easier. Anyway....about a...

    Haha...............CATS!

    They can be so indignant. I had parked my Land Cruiser down by one of the storage buildings where I was going to rinse it off. Cat jumps up on the roof and is sitting there staring at me. I told her to get down and waved my hand at her. What does she do? Lays down and gives me that 'I'll get...

    Poor little Babies

    Don't have anything to play with. I should be horse whipped. Guess I'll take them swimming to make up for it.

    Pulling T-Posts

    I'm not a person too much attracted to 'gadgets' but I've got a bunch of T-Posts I need to pull (by myself). Normally (with help) I just use a chain, throw a couple of half hitches on the post and lift it out with the front loader. But I've been looking at these T-Post pulling 'Plates' that...

    Gents....give me some guidance/opinions/experience here please.

    It is time for new rear tires on my L2350DT. But I have a few questions first...perhaps the members here can help me with. A little background info on the tractor and its usage. Its a compact tractor (25 hp), 4wd, gets no more than 50-60 hrs use a year (at most). Tractor is 27 years old...
