I have a 2004 B7800HSD that I bought new back in 2004. I bought it with a LA402 loader, a Woods 7200 finish mower, a Woods 7500 backhoe and recently won a Mow King TAS-81 rototiller on ebay. I know I'm pushing the limits of my tractor with the rototiller.
Hey Downeaster, Funny you wrote about the battery and are from Maine. My wife and I were having an idle discussion about how Maine would be to live. Speaking of the cold, we have lived in Alaska for years, but it's not only a little cold but gotten old. How is life in Maine?
Just purchased M5400, 1st time tractor owner. I have got a lot to learn and lots of questions. First items of business: oil, fuel, air filter and oil change. Next is Hydraulic filters and fluid. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Check out Tractor Mike on Youtube. Great, common sense site with videos, instructions, basics and tips that you need as a new tractor owner. Great resource!
Along the line of lubricants I like to use a moly based grease in sleeve type bearings such as the loader pivots. For roller and ball bearings it is better to use a lithium or sticky red grease as moly is TOO slick and bearings my slide instead of roll. The lithium grease would certainly be better than nothing in your loader pivots just not as good as moly bearing grease.

Thank you for the reply. I will continue to use the moly then.
Now on my 10th Kubota, an older B7500 with a loader. The BX23S was just too sloppy!
Thanks for your thoughts on the exhaust drain. Perhaps I was lucky with my Mitsubishi, or perhaps when it rained (rarely does) the water stopped in the muffler. In any case my Kubota has a downward exhaust.
Visit our tractor front/ implement wheel rim section to find wide range of front tractor rims, farm implement wheels and tires, 4, 5, 6 bolt implement rims, 16 inch implement wheels,17 inch implement wheels, 6 lug implement wheels, 8 lug implement wheels, rear tractor rims, 9 bolt rear tractor rims. Always have best stock of agricultural implement wheels and front tractor rims.
I also have a problem shifting both directions. Clutch seams weak. You can push in forward want go in but you let out the clutch it will.
Would it be possible to see if you have a complete set of wheels (all four) for a L245DT. Mine are rusted really bad around valve stem areas and do not hold air. There is some caustic ballast liquid leaking and corroding the metal. Thank you, Really Appreciate it
just to update on L245dt power steering. i used the steering control valve, some hoses and cylinder off a 1968 corvette, plus i used a power steering electric pump off a volvo 40 series. cutting and welding required. 701-601-0670

Glad you got it accomplished, did you post on the forum, others may be interested in that setup.
I have a 2007 m108s kubota, 3,018 hours. Swing shift trans. Randomly lost my high/low function on the right hand shifter, stuck in high but does not show my range on the dash and the alarm sounds constantly. Any help is appreciated, thank you!

Just had the same thing happen to my Kubota M108S open station tractor w/2,600 hrs., for the 1st time ever, last night? What did you do to resolve the problem? Plz respond!
I just had my d902 rebuilt for a bx2230 and it's making a clinking noise at low idle. I'm new on here. I have a video but I'm not sure if I can post one
Lance, had a few different needs/inquiries for my L295DT
1) need the starter switch knob
2) my wiring is an absolute mess. Lots of wires terminated/going nowhere. It runs? Wondering if using a used wiring harness is possible/advisable?
3) hood/bonnet? Not sure how expensive shipping to NC might be?
4) Seat hardware - my seat is shot…looking at a replacement and how to mount and noticed all hardware under is gone…it just rests on ROPS crossbar

any help or advice is appreciated
