Travel speed

[orange]

Picked up a b2400 with 650 hours. Brought it in for servicing at a local Kubota dealer with an additional question.

I only get around 4.25 mph forward and a bit more in reverse? The book says I should be getting almost 9mph.

Any how. About $1500 bucks to tair into the rear end would be a good starting point for repair. I'm holding off on that for now.

Has plenty of power in drive train and hydro. It's hydrostatic trans. Front loader lifts fine to.

Any info on this issue?

You're in a hurry? I have a B20 -- top speed 6 mph.

Yes I'm in a hurry to cross my 2 acre yard to dump loads of stuff! Just a bit bumed that I cant travel faster. Especially when I should be going more than twice as fast!!!!

I just hard from the dealer my hydrolic is fine. There could be an issue with internal stuff. Can't rember off the top of my head. Anyhow, he suggests if I want it fixed. He would have to split the tracker in half for further diognoses?

Big time decision for you.
That's a chunk of $cratch for a few more mph.
Is it important enough for you to spend the money?

If you decide against doing it you may have bigger problems down the road as the issue may get worse.

I would put a lot of thought into your next move.
