I have 2 new Hunter ceiling fan light combinations. We previously had Hampton Bay fan/light combos. We have dual switch 3-way wiring, and we could turn on the fan or lights separately from the top or bottom of the stairs. Now to turn the light on the fan’s switch needs to be on. The light switch...

I am finally going to convert my L3800 to SSQA. The firs attachment I ordered was a log grapple. Now I am wondering if a diverter or 3rd function is better and the prices of them. Is there a Kubota Kit for a LA524 loader? I am getting the 2nd lever quick attach 2216 from the dealer cheaper...

When I got my tractor I got the pin on loader. Now years gone by I want to get a ssqa set up. I've seen them going for $ 1000 and up and that is more than I want to spend. Titan sells assqua conversion for $400 or so but they are JD only. I don't want to give them measurements to make one for...

Olympic has a well rated stripper as does Thompson but I can't find it any sore near us. the two box stores HD and Loews carry their brand of...

I have a old truck with a 8' old fisher plow. The truck isn't going but I want to take the plow off and salvage it. I want to cut it down to 6 feet and have it be a clamp on for my L3800 Kubota. How hard would it be to cut it with a recip saw or with cut off wheel on a circular saw? I am...

I have a small 110 powered electric fence for poultry. One side is the hot wire and the other is the ground. All the hot wire strand is on plastic insulators with nothing touching the chicken wire or anything else. The ground is good with 3 good earth grounds that never touch the hot side. I...

I am looking to get a plow that I could put on my loader and swap out fast. I found one at Bxpanded that looks good but are there others out there? Any one have any experience with Bxpanded plows? I love my 66" rear blower but today it was wet packed snow that clogged it and the bucket is great...

This is the second time this happened to me. I was out in the woods off our dirt road and I notice the tire is flat and the valve stem is gone. This is time #2, the 1st time I went to the local tire shop and got it fixed. This time was bad, off in the woods with a load of wood on the skid...

i have a 13 hp lifan motor on my splitter that has run well until today. I finally hooked up the electric start. it was simple, they give you a red wire and clearly label where to hook it up. The black wire was another joke, from the battery to a crimp connector. So with it all wired up I hit...

I have a homemade chicken plucker that I built a few years ago I used a Marathon 3/4 hp farm duty motor from Tractor Supply. While moving firewood last winter the motor got hit and the start capacitor came off. There are 2 black wires from the motor, one is brass colored the other is silver. The...

Ok this may be nuts but her goes. I can get some large storm window glass sheets for free, but making them onto a green house? I know I can't cut tempered glass but how hard would it be to frame around it and use it? It sounds insane but I can get some free large storm windows. They are 3"-7"...

I have been having well issues for a week or so. I have the single phase 230 v 2 wire well pump. Last week it was not pumping when the switch came on for demand, pressure gauge was shot so I had no idea at what psi only way to tell was the switch kicking on and off but I had the full voltage...

I installed a Central Boiler furnace to heat with my propane boiler this year. My initial problem was I plumbed it in direct so the pump from the outdoor boiler was directly plumbed in with the house system. The problem was once the outdoor furnace shut off the system would siphon off. This was...

I built a home made log splitter, 13 hp 22 gal per min pump with a 5" cylinder and a prince detent valve all 3/4" ports. The hoses are 1 1/4" intake and 3/4" all the rest.It splits well and the speed splitting is great but it does not go back on its own with the handle in the center and a slow...

I was out today moving some green split red oak today with my Kubota L3800. I had the bright idea or so I thought of putting it on skids with skids for the sides and back for portable firewood storage. I went to lift a skid and it would not lift it and the rear tires were coming up. I went with...

I am building a splitter and I have a 13hp motor, 22 gpm pump and a 5" cylinder. All my ports off the detent valve are 3/4", the pump has 1" ports. I looked at older threads here and I came up with 1 1/2" suction hose and 3/4" hose for everything else. If I use 1 1/2" hose and I use an adapter...

I am going nuts building a log splitter. I can't find what size and pitch bolts mount the pump to the motor. I have looked all over including the manual but no luck. It's a 13 hp lifan engine that is said to be a Honda clone. The owners manual is a joke to say the least.

I just put on a 66" 3 pt PTO snow blower and I want rear lights for night. I found a good 14v power from the parking lights but I wonder if that would be blowing fuses?

I want to get chains for my 27x8.5-15nhs tires. I can find 4 linik and 2 link but I really want dual link without spending $400 or more. I want chains on the front industrial tires and I wonder if anyone has run 2 link on the front?

I am at 100 hours and my warranty is about to expire. Does anyone know the price of getting the extended warranty? I really question getting it, everything works so well and my hours are low. Just got pallet forks so moving firewood out of the woods is better, I even used the back hoe to lift a...

Anyone running front chains on their Kubota? I have a L3800 with rim guard in the rears. I haven't had allot of problems moving snow with the loader but a few times on some ice I went for a spin and moving back some banks on a downhill curve has had its moments. Can I run front chains without...

I have a home built chicken plucker I built last year. It has a 3/4 hp farm rated thermo overload motor on it. It had plenty of power before but last week we were offing 16 birds and only got to 10 because the motor on the plucker bogged down. It got so bad I had to spin the plucker plate to get...

Ok I searched this and saw a post saying to hit reply twice to get them but I do not get smileys, not in the quick reply or standard. What am I missing? I went to my home but did not see this.

I am looking for a good hand well pump. Nothing deep 14 feet or less. Lehmans has a brass cistern pump that is freeze proof that looks ok but I know there is a cheaper version of it someplace, I lost it from my favorites. This would be emergency back up drinking water.

Next spring I want to get a Box scraper. What size is good for a L3800? I want one to make a lawn, right now its rocks timothy and wild roses etc. Was going to do it this fall but I was afraid of the frost hitting soon, oh well I guess not.

My wife wants goats for milk. She wants Nigerian dwarf or boer for meat. So we live in Mass and I wonder what we need to keep them in the winter. I don't want to build anything expensive or big yet, she has never had them and what if she changes her mind. Also can goats and pigs get along?

I am finishing a driveway ditch job. I want to plant timothy and clover to green it up and give people some idea where the driveway edge is. I wanted to get some hydroseed mulch preferably with some fertilizer to mix or cover the seed. I don't want to rent a machine and I don't think any...

I am fixing drainage issues on my driveway and I dug up the entrance and exit of an old culvert underneath our paved driveway. It is packed solid with sand. It is too far from our house to get a hose up to it and flush it. I am debating getting threaded rod to push the sand out. I do not have...

I have a 1/4 mile driveway. We had it paved years ago due to wash outs. I have large burms right next to it that I am taking out so I can plow better and not have scrub roses scratch trucks and cars. So far I have a 2 ft wide path on side of the drive and a few push out spots for snow. The...

Ok I am new to my L 3800 tractor and I have used the back hoe once to fill in a trench for propane lines. There is a large stump from a Maple at our Church, I think it is like 15" round. I was asked to pull it with my backhoe once the ground thaws. So this may sound silly but how big of a stump...

I have a L3800 hydro stat and it is great. This fall I moved fire wood and the rear wheel was spinning I stopped pressed down the differential lock and it pulled out. I disengaged it before the drive way and used it a couple of times since then. Last snow I tried it and it did not want to go in...

I had been back an forth on what to buy, it was almost a 36 hp Mahindra but the sales guy was only there limited hours and forgot he saw me three weeks before and he raised the price $1000 and talked over me so that made it easy to buy a Kubota L 3800 with loader and Back Hoe. I got it On...
