The only tractor manufacturer that I'm aware of that does powdercoating is TYM, and that's just on the sheet metal.

Welcome to the forum! You need to determine why the pulley is moving down to the point of contact. Fix why it is out of position, instead of trying to place something underneath to slow the wear. Fix it right, or it will get worse no matter what you do to try and protect the deck shell.

Bri-Guy- out of curiosity, have you increased the lift capacity of the loader?

There's a decent-sized Kubota dealer near me. Over the years, I've seen many new tractors, which had sat on the lot for a while, with faded paint.

Go over it with some rubbing compound and cut the oxidation off. UV light is hard on orange paint, and if you are leaving it outside, this is the result. I'd be very surprised if they would cover it. I bought a Woods finish mower, in Kubota orange, for a song because it had faded so bad it was...

Have you increased the hydraulic pressure?

Welcome from VA!

Welcome to the forum! You were doing loader work over rough ground, by your description, for about 8 hours. With the pin in place, there would be a significant amount of leverage on that pin and the casting. From the looks of it, it's not a casting defect, but a failure due to overload. As...

Hey, Chris. I'm across the mountain from you, in Augusta County. If you haven't already, check with Beverage Tractor in Stuarts Draft or Green Hill Equipment in Staunton.

We have an HD 10 that we use on our Deere 5065E. We use the supply port on the remote. We use the fill point on the rear axle for the dump/return. It has enough force when evacuating the oil that we bungy the hose in place. Dad runs the tractor and activates the remote, and I run the driver.

Murphy's Law hasn't been overturned. These are great reasons why I don't lend (I also don't borrow). A failure of the equipment at the hand of someone else puts them in a tough position. I'll either help them myself, or if their idea isn't the right solution, I'll offer advice on the better way...

I had a brain fart and used the wrong term- is an unloader valve. It will most likely be inside the case, near the 3 point control.

Sitting that long, the unloader valve could be corroded and stuck. If it is, it allows the hydraulic oil to bypass.

Welcome to the forum! Did you buy it new or used? Any warranty on it? Most likely, it's a filter or filter gasket issue. You could simply get a new filter, remove the old one, make sure the surface is clean and the old gasket doesn't stay on, and install the new filter. Or, let the dealer figure...

There are plastic cleaners, which can cut the oxidation. To protect, I use a generic ceramic polish, which works on both plastic and paint/metal. My stuff looks fantastic- I have a 99 Honda ATV and a 2000 tractor that gets comments.

Great! It's pretty common for a person to start a thread, and not follow through with the end results. There is bound to be someone who can benefit from your experience. Welcome to the forum, by the way!

Were the old sensors completely bad? Can you put one back in, and see what happens? Narrow down which one is the issue?

Everything continues to climb. Property tax assessments just came out in my county- the average tax increase is 50.9% from last year. A property that my father owns went up 60%.

I have a Bobcat skid steer, with a semi-functioning hour meter. It reads a little over 5,000 hours, and I'm sure it has more than that. The Kubota engine in it is rock solid, uses no oil, and gives no reason to be worried.
