    what is this ?

    This might be a stupid question but what is the metal rod with a loop on the end that is situated right behind the shuttle shift lever. Far as I can tell it does't do anything. But I'm sure it's there for a reason. Ok, I'm ready to feel foolish now, ha! Thanks, Mark

    I have the M5660 and I'm wanting to change the hyd. filters without replacing the oil. Does anyone know how much I have to drain out so that no more leaks out when removing the filters?

    oil change on M5660?

    I have an M5660 and I was ready to change oil today. I noticed that the oil sump is split because the front drive shaft runs through it. There does appear to be a drain plug on each side which would make sense. But the owners manual makes no mention of a split sump or extra drain plug. Is...

    Hey guys, just want to run this by you. I'm thinking of ordering a set of Titan pallet forks: 48" , 4000lb. capacity, 6-46" width adjust. I talked to the rep on the phone and he couldn't assure me that they were compatible with my Kubota LA1154 quick detach loader. So I thought I'd run it by...

    3 pt. lift height?

    Hello all, I recently purchased an M5660 and it seems to me the tpl doesn't raise as high as it should. I have a 63 ford 4000 and it seems to raise almost twice as high as the Kubota. I don't know if this is normal for the Kubota or not. I already have the top link attachment in the lowest...

    3pth lift height

    I recently took posession of a new 5660 with a brush hog attached. It doesn' t seem to lift very high, at least compared to my old '63 Ford4000. I'm not sure if that's all it lifts or is there someway to make it go a little higher by altering the hookup points, etc. I know I could shorten the...
