    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    My brother moved near a rural king about 7 years ago, it's such an amazing store. Like a Walmart and TSC had a baby but more of the TSC then Walmart. My box blade came from them, absolute best price around, even when looking at used ones at the time. Batteries are pretty much all made by...

    Suspension Seat on a Zero Turn?

    My SCAG Turf Tiger had a solid seat. Picked up a parts mower mainly for the suspension seat, night and day difference in cutting my 5 acres. If I hadn't scored the parts mower for what I did, I was going to to do one of the options already listed in this thread.

    Amazon third function kit

    When I was shopping for my 3rd function, I found the actual kit from Summit on Amazon. I went to their site for more info, and it's a couple of bucks cheaper to buy it directly. Summit also offers a discount for OTT members; that info is listed over in the vendors section.

    Found : 7x16 car Hauler

    Most utility-type trailer owners' manuals I've come across are very, very sparse with any info. You're best bet for any info would be to figure out what axles are under it and find literature from them.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    I went and took in the last few pages of the photo shoot thread and got pretty caught up. I've been turning wrenches since high school at the local garage, then moved into the fleet world. May '26 will be 20 years. I spend most of my time behind the desk now, unfortunately, but I fully...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Being as you turned wrenches, I'm pretty confident you can figure out how to install the 3rd function. I did mine in an evening, pretty straightforward. Maybe I missed it in another thread, but why the sudden departure from turning wrenches and career change to an OtR truck driver?

    Tractor for Municipal Easement Work

    Thanks everyone for the feedback so far! For the most part, we have "fairly" flat ground to contend with. The tractor may have to traverse a few miles of easements, but would be trailered between jobs, not driven down the road. Currently, we have an 18 or 20-foot, 10k GVW trailer that would...

    Tractor for Municipal Easement Work

    I manage a fleet for the local water utility just outside of DC. We are responsible for maintaining our own easements and right-of-ways. Currently, the group responsible is using a 2013 B3200HSD with a 4ft bush hog and a John Deere 325G with a diamond brush cutter pro x to maintain them. The...

    Dryer Repair

    Our GE dishwasher randomly quit back in June, did some troubleshooting that suggested the controll board under the unit was bad and google confirmed it was a common problem. $98 later and 30 minutes we were back in business. Did not want to mess with finding and installing a new one with a...

    Rear Hydraulics and Tilt Cylinder Lengths

    Like TheOldHokie said, it's easier to tap the PB pipe on the loader valve. I had already installed fittings when I did my 3rd function install. All I had to do was move one hose from returning into the PB loop after the 3rd function and use it to feed the remotes, then one new hose from the...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    That's certainly a possibility!! A buddy of mine pulled some cylinders off a Bobcat-branded skid steer attachment and had good luck with reliability and sourcing parts easily.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Thats a bummer, makes one think twice about buying something sans cylinders and just sourcing your own from like surplus center.

    personal protection in the heat, ticks, poison ivy?

    I will always take extra breaks and drink more water to stay protected from ivy versus wearing shorts and no sleeves, because it's "too hot." Sounds like an excuse for being perpetually dehydrated. I live in VA, Humidity is a killer around here, just something you learn to deal with and work...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Thank you very much!! I didn't even think about the difference for those with a backhoe. I took the box and bar off mine across the back when I did my hydraulic top link as it was just in the way and annoying.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    How do you have your ammo can mounted? I have the same tractor and looking to do similar.

    L2501 Turbo: A Journey Defined - The tractor, The comparison, The modification, The results...

    I love this thread and have been following along with Hahnsolo on his journey with the B2650, as I have the same tractor. I'd kind of like to one day do the same for the additional PTO power. The size of the tractor is great for me, but some additional umph for the PTO could be a welcome addition.

    Finding a water leak in a buried line

    When I finally realized mine was leaking was when I was in the basement and kept hearing the contactor for the well pump kick on. Watch the tank, then like clockwork, it would drain and refill. I checked everything I could in the house; it was late and had been raining, so I figured I'd look...
