    Tractor Cover

    Thank you guy's for all the info as I hadn't given thought's to creating cover for vermin while trying to preserve my tractor. And searching the web there isn't a whole lot available and generally I've got it parked inside my shop but some recent projects put it outside and was just looking to...

    Tractor Cover

    Does anyone know of any companies that have tractor covers that fit? I've got a L-5040 with a canopy on it, so I was looking for one that would fit a cab model with as loader. This way when I've got it parked outside the paint won't fade. Any help would be great

    Reasonably priced bolt on tooth bars

    I want to thank deezler as I ordered the toothbar from Neat and to my door was 350.00 in week ! They have been asking for a review as I haven't had time to take pics of it, but what I can say is I'm not impressed with the flat bar they welded the teeth to has a square 5/8" edge instead of a...

    L5740 - 2 wire harnesses under seat

    Thanks tsmithco as I also have a L-5040 and was putting some led's under my canopy for both the front as well as rear facing with a rear work light. My L-2900 had the wire by the right rear for the work light but unless the wire is buried in the right rear loom on our L-5040's then I'm not...

    Reasonably priced bolt on tooth bars

    Well it will be a Christmas present to me as a toothbar is a priority in my opinion esp for back dragging to protect the edge of your bucket. I just couldn't justify $550-650 for the cost. And about the only thing I see on the inexpensive bars is the leading edge of the flat bar doesn't have a...

    Reasonably priced bolt on tooth bars

    Hey guy's I'm looking for a used or new 72" tooth bar. By far one of the best attachments I've had on tractors before but 585.00-650.00 is a little steep. My other Kubota L-2900 GST had the commercial bucket and nobody made a tooth bar for it back in 2003 so I purchased the teeth, bar and side...

    Which brands have more metal, and which brands have more plastic?

    I agree with all of you as our society has become a high dollar but low quality market where the plastic is almost bio-degradable to where if you part it outside not only does the color fade but within a few years it's like the plastic just crumbles ! I'm not sure where it will lead but this...

    B2150 4x4, motor won't turn

    Have you checked the safety switch on the seat? I had a similar situation on my L-5040 and it was the switch on the seat, so I unhooked it at the seat and made a jumper wire to go across the terminals of the harness to the seat and it's run ever since. Just a thought as it appears to be one of...

    Kubota or mahindra

    Well put it this way, the dealer told me to never park under the loader bucket as they had another gentleman's bucket that went through his windshield by the next day ! And minutes after shutting off my tractor with the bucket up you could hear a constant creaking sound as it began to leak down.

    L-5040 GST Dies when trying to go forward

    And thank you Dave M7040 as your pics were a real help although mine is GST trans and I don't believe it has the shuttle switch. But again thank you.

    L-5040 GST Dies when trying to go forward

    Well a little update as now tractor is dead in the water so to speak. I raised the seat to find the seat switch was half as-ed bypassed and making intermittent connection. So I properly bypassed and although I have current through bypassing the seat all I get is a click. So I checked all the...

    Kubota or mahindra

    Your absolutely correct, unfortunately most dealers don't have a unit to demo other than purchasing it.

    Kubota or mahindra

    I purchased a new 5310 4wd when I lived in Colo. before moving to MO. With 2 rear remotes, filled rear tires and Fel and multiple implements. Upon delivery I was tickled having made close to a 50k investment to maintain my 40 ac. Within the first month I noticed that if I parked the green...

    Kubota or mahindra

    Well you obviously haven't priced the green. Because the hydraulic's are junk and location of things needed to operate.
