I will be putting my L39 up for sale in a week but not sure how this works, I own it free and clear. All I have is a letter from kubota saying its paid off but there is no title or any official document. So do I just wright up a receipt myself? Just seems like area open to alot of fraud high...

I need some help, I'm in the process of building a FEL mounted 55 gallon drum cement mixer. It will be run from a third function remote on my Kubota L39 which believe is 11 gpm. Problem I have is I know vary little about hydraulics . I have been looking on surplus center and found this...

I would like to build a road grader for my next project and have been checking them out. My problem is it will be for a Kubota L39 and since its a pain in the butt to be switching between backhoe and 3pt all the time. I saw dura grader has one for skid steers. I like the idea of just switching...

Hey all Ive been posting a few questions about my dump truck project. Well I have another and figured I would share a pic since I know everyone likes seeing pictures. The ? I would like to find a set of extendable towing mirrors that will fit it. Its a 1991 k3500 I know 88-98 parts fit but...

I was hoping someone hear knows where I can find Rolled aluminum fenders for a 1 ton dump truck. I saw some on the net somewhere for around 85.00 each from a truck shop but now I cant find it. I would like to use them to prevent mud a dirt from flying up and sticking to the nooks and cranies...

Ok Took the trailer out for a spin and the brakes are locking up. It only happens for a second each time it does it but it does it off and on doesn't seem to correspond with bumps just when ever it feels like it. Its not a slight breaking either were talking full lock up like the break away is...

Well I caught my radiator today with a $$%#@* stick. Does any one have a good source for tractor radiators? Anyone know how much a new one is going to be?

OK I bought a GMC 91 k3500 dump for picking up material and moving my L39 around. It had some rust issues so I gutted it and getting ready to prep the back of the cab and the dump will not raise it worked fine and then one day no lift. I can here the solenoid clicking on the power unit and the...

Happy Thanksgiving I was wanting to build a couple backhoe buckets for my L39 that has the quick attach. I was wondering if anyone else has built one or has ears (not sure if thats the right term) that weld on the bucket to accept QA on the dipper maybe drawn in auto cad. I would like to take...

Alright since there are so many knowledgeable people on here I know I will find the answers I need here. I posted a couple days ago about getting parts for older trucks. well neither of them worked out so it was back to the drawing board. I found this a 1987 international with a DT466 and...

Hi i'm looking at getting a dump truck and have found two that are in my budget first is 89 f-600 cummings diesel and seconed one is 81 c60 366 gas motor. My question is this where is a good place to find parts for these older trucks ie. brakes,suspension,body panels. Can i go to autozone and...

This maybe a little out there but I'll ask anyway. We have been thinking about getting a geo-thermal system for our home and I stated thinking of better ways and wondered why A septic tank is never incorporated into the design other than the obvious answer. I know our family of four uses alot...

I have my eye on a 6' woods brush bull and wanted to make sure the L39 would be ok with it. I know the 5 horse per foot puts me at 30 pto horse power needed and the L39 is right there with 30.5 so seems like I should be OK. Just wanted to maybe hear from some others with 30 horse PTO running 6...

This is part of another post in kubota forums (l39 lots of questions) but it has transitioned to more of hydraulics discussion so I thought I might get more response here. Anyway I would like to add hydraulics to the backhoe on a L39 for a thumb and possibly a hyd. PHD in the future. I'm not...

I need to build a thumb for a L39. In order to pin on the thumb I will need a longer pin for the bucket and since it already has the quick coupler and Kubota dosnt offer a thumb I doubt they offer a longer pin unless the b26 has the same size pin for the bucket but I'm usually not that lucky...
