Threaded on one end.. yes, that's what I'm asking. Mine are and there are some situations where just a little tighter or looser is needed.
Improved stabilizers
- Thread starter hodge
- Start date
Mine are not threaded, unless the customer orders them that way. In standard form (on my B7100), I don't have but maybe a half inch or so travel side to side with pins in place. On my B7100, it isn't good to have the stabilizers tight when the implement is low- when raised up, the arc of the stabilizers is a little different that the lift arms, and if the stabilizers are adjusted tight down low, they get REAL tight as you get near the top. So, I haven't found a need to have a threaded end. Others might, and I can make them to accomodate that.
Re: Good reason for improved stabilizers
Hi Hodge:
Do you happen to have a photo of these stabilizers in place, on your tractor? I'm tired of fighting with my turnbuckles but am unwilling to spend the big bucks to get adjustable stabilizers from Kubota. I've got a 2007 B7800 and struggle to attach my Landpride 5' finish mower and New Idea 5' brush hog.
Thanks.
David

I do believe this is Marks own tractor pictured here on his website.

Yeap I have ordered a set from Mark and am so tired of wresting with the turnbuckles. I have to unbolt the nut from the lower lift arm and when I get Mark's new ones me and the tractor will be happy. I have a B7500 so getting the medium size.
Just got my set in the mail today from Hodge. Definitely quality built and professionally welded! Thanks Hodge!
Are you still making these? I spent the afternoon going through the 3pt hitch of the tractor I just bought and mine are all bound up. Looks like you have the best solution available!
Mine are on the outside of the lift arms so that might change your geometry. I can even send you my current set or post pictures. Let me know, thanks.

In another post that is current I think I read he is taking some time off to care for a loved one that is having health issues and want to let folks know.

I will give an update. I closed down the webpage so that I could gain some control of the orders coming in. I needed to gain that control because I have other responsibilities besides the stabilizers, and I was having a hard time keeping up with everything. I am a youth pastor, and my father and daughter run a horse farm here at the house. My father is getting up in age, and while his body is slowing down, his mind still goes a zillion miles an hour. So, I spend a fair amount of time helping him- tomorrow is one example. I really needed to be building stabilizers (I'm still catching up on orders), but he needs help picking up some hams. He likes to cure them. He hurt his hand last week, and can't go pick them up (or prep them) by himself. So, I'm going with him.
So, to answer your question 40Farmall, I am still building them. I need to fulfill the current list of orders before I can take more, though. It would be the first of March before I could build them. You can private message me, or email me at markhdg@gmail.com, and we can discuss them.

Skeets they're the slickest time savers eliminating a bunch of grief and aggravation adjust or hooking up implements. No more fighting rusted up
turn buckles simply pull the pin and move it where you want from simply swinging it out to pin up to actual width adjustment.
My B3030 had them from the factory otherwise they'd be replaced, amd mine's double good because it has the pivoting extending ends on the 3pt too. Thinking about it for my Belarus but since I haven't used it much the last couple years haven't had to fight those pos turnbuckles..out of sight out of mind.

I have to say, they are slick. Thinking on building a set for my L1501, but not sure what i need to make them work. Would buy them but across border shoppng isnt really my thing.
I'm new to this site and have just registered. I'm interested in a set of your stabilizer arms for a Kubota B7100. How can I get in touch with you to work out details? My phone is (205) 607-7252. Just call or send me a text and let me know. Thanks, Lee

I wouldn't post your phone number to the world on a web site. Especially in a format that a robot can pick up. You might want to edit it out. You can send Hodges a pm (private message) and then you know he will see it.
