What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

[speedymph1000]

Then today loaded it up and went and did some dirt work for a customer that wanted more dirt put on his septic lines.

Speedy,

Your post had me laughing...

I was looking at the top being framed up and looked at your welding table (legs) thinking that was part of your top. For two seconds I was thinking, "DAAAAAMMMMN! That top is stronger than the original ROPS! His tractor is gonna fall over."

Nice work. Tops are nice and the bigger the better. I am gonna do lights one of these days.

Haha. Thanks! It's nice and I made it 18" longer in the back to accommodate the backhoe. The Kubota top doesn't offer that. Those legs were actually from another welding job I did for a guy but they worked perfectly for the frame of this top too.

By the way, you should definitely do lights. They are very nice to have.

Cleared pasture fence. Had way to much help. The White one says "let me drive it"

I think he's jealous of the competition, checking it out and all.

You could be right. He tried to eat the hood!

Standard Grade 2 bolt is all a sheer bolt is. Even Kubota admitted that in a manual I read on one of their equipment items. Your hardware store has them.

Your overheat problem may be caused by a plugged radiator. Yes, I know it can look really clean, but trust me, it's not. Flush those fins out with a strong water stream followed up by some compressed air. You'll be surprised at the difference. Of course, all of that is assuming the water pump is working properly, so I'd check that first.

I brought about a pound of them with some nuts n bolts from tractor supply for $3. Why buy a single bolt for $2 a piece. Can change sheer bolts in 5 minutes with a 7/16 and 11 mm wrenches.

Tried to really pull trees out of yard with small chain and FEL. Worked great on trees about 3" around. Even let family member run tractor to pull trees up out of flower garden. Any bigger would be just cutting with chainsaw. Best machine for saplings.

Yes, you can have toooo much fun.

olthumpa, you have that all logged out like you're on the payroll! You got your eight hours in before clean up. Who you working for, clean up should be on the clock to.

Just joshing you, I hope you know! How much fuel did you burn?

All work for myself but I like to have some idea of how long it takes me to accomplish a given task for future reference.

I burnt 5 - 6 gallons, do not have it metered. 2 hrs of hogging was in 4th gear the rest was in 1st gear and lugging down sometimes - working hard. Ditch work - 6' box with 5 rippers 1st gear 2000rpm.

"Just joshing you," WHAT YOU TALKING BOUT WILLIS!
