Had today off so was able to do some playing with the kubota. I ordered a couple LED lights off Amazon that got good reviews and seemed to be the right size for my needs. Big jump in brightness without a need to change any wiring. I used some heavy flat stock to make extension brackets to...

I think I’ve used it with all my implements by now and have had zero issue. Not sure which specific implements would cause it trouble. given those specs what “danger” does this represent? Leak down ? Blowing a seal?

Sorry I missed a couple later posts. The implement I am carrying is a Tar River no-till drill. Absolutely love it. I plant lots of food plots for deer hunting and it’s my main food plot tool. I ended up finding a hydraulic top link with hoses on Amazon. Category 2 Hydraulic Top Link 21 5/8" -...

Just picked up my new kubota L6060 (cabbed) and had a hand full of questions. Rather than post single questions in different forums i thought it would be less messy to just list them out in one thread. Here goes. 1- hydraulic top link. I had two dual rear remotes installed so that one set could...

In the picture the kubota honestly doesn’t look that much bigger. 4300 wheel base is 68” vs kubota 75”. JD 4300 weight is 3000 lbs vs L6060 @ 4365. HP. JD 4300 - 30. L6060 - 60. definitely have more tractor!

Finally took delivery (picked up) my L6060 yesterday am! Super excited. I had waited a long time for the 3rd function valve to come in but it kept getting pushed back by kubota. I finally said I wanted the tractor and they could ship me the valve kit and I’d install myself. Compared to my old...

What is TnT? They sent me a pic of little dent. I told them if they’d double the discount they could put another one on it. Lol

Found one (L6060) in North Little Rock. Deposit check sent. 3rd option and two dual rear remotes ordered and to be installed soon. Only caveat was a small quarter size dent in the hood, but they were willing to knock an extra $500 off for the dent, which I'm fine with. It's a tractor not a...

Well, update. I’m concerned I may not ever get this tractor. As I mentioned in the first post the dealership is changing hands. Last week I called, text and emailed asking for an update on that situation and can’t get a response. I called a couple other Kubota dealerships that are (a lot...

Saya 507 yes. Optional weight package ? Those are essentially suitcase weights that are used on railroad crossing arms. Neighbor works for railroad and got them for me. I estimate they’re easily 50lbs each if not more. 3 on each side so 300+ lbs. I’d add a few more if I had a little bigger...

Yes. I absolutely love it. Made for some incredible food plots this fall. Planted soybeans last spring and a few mixes (mostly turnips) in the fall.

My E42 is a 2012 model. Just shy of 3000 hours. It was a rental in it's previous life but well maintained. They hold their value well. I paid $27k for it and my plan is to use it for a few years and if I get to a point where I don't need it as much I should be able to sell it for not much...

Of course. Once consideration for believing the cab will work is that I bought a mini excavator (bobcat e42) last year so the trails and such with cab obstructions is getting less and less.

One of the handful of reasons the upgrade was necessary. The 35HP JD really did not like my drill. I did not know a tractor could moan and groan but they can!

Well I just moved forward with the purchase of an L6060. A lot of help / info came from perusing this forum. It came down to the L6060 or the MX6000 / 5400. Either would have been a major upgrade over my 20 year old open station JD 4300 HST. I originally thought I would want to stay with...

I'm deciding between the MX6000 and the L6060 as well (cab). I'm somewhat torn. My current tractor is a 20 year old JD 4300 (open station) so either one will be a huge upgrade. I share your concern. $5k difference between the two tractors (41k vs 46k). I'm fine with paying more if the L is...

Got a 2002 JD 4300 HST that has around 2000 hours on it (panel died years ago)? This little JD has done lots of hard work over the years. I've had to repair a few items but it's served me pretty well. I bought it used around 10 years ago. I've actually been starting to shop for a new(er)...

Trying to rebuild the lift cylinders on my 420 loader. Cylinder # is JDAH 163579. I致e had the tractor for several years and put many hours on it. I doubt they致e ever been touched in thousands of hours. The rod end of this cylinder definitely looks to be threaded. It has the small hole in the...

2002 4300 HST with 430 FEL. Recently started having issues with FEL being weak. 3 pt still seemed to work normal. PTO and HST drive seemed to have normal power. Issue seemed to be confined to FEL. Since it was due I went ahead and did a hydraulic fluid change and cleaned screens and filter...

My 02 4300 HST died and won稚 start. Several years ago I had an issue where it would die when I got off the seat and then not re start. If I would jiggle the pedals a little it would start. Investigation revealed that the microswitch that was depressed by a small roller up in the flywheel housing...

Was just out doing some bush hogging and a stick popped up and snapped off a fuel hose right where it connected to the tractor. I'm going to post a picture of the part. It broke off what looks like a brass nipple where it inserts into a cast aluminum part. I was able to remove the broken end. I...

A couple days ago I was using my 4300 HST and felt a jerk/pop in the steering wheel. It wasn't under a load or in a tight spot. I noticed an immediate change in the steering (power steering gone). I muscled it back to the shop (I was really close) and got off to take a look. I noticed the...

I bought a roll pin punch set at a tool store. Took less than 5 minutes to get it knocked out:) This allowed me to remove the other short shaft that exits the position control valve. It also had heavy corrosion and a worn out o-ring making it VERY difficult to knock out. Fortunately I...

In this picture you can see the corrosion between the limiter and the housing to the control valve. The "shaft key" was an absolute pain to remove as it was seized onto the shaft as well.

Update: I started the tear down last night and had some interesting findings. The rockshaft itself was basically seized up. After removeing the cover to the control valve and removing the link between the actual rockshaft and the position feedback rod I realized that the "very stiff"...

Like the title of the thread suggests... I'm having some trouble with the 3pt hitch. I want to apologize for not having all the right terminology in place but I don't have my manual in front of me. The problem with it has been slowly developing. This past summer I noticed the rockshaft lever...

Thanks for the info! Here's the page out of my manual that describes the belt tightening procedure. The mower is simple in that it keeps moving parts at a minimum but that does make it more essential that the belts are matched.

I have a 6' Howse finish mower (C372) that runs off of two 84" "kevlar belts". I noted recently that if the grass is thick one of the belts starts slipping and is looking pretty worn. A lot more slack is in that particular side. The mower is about 10 years old and in all likelihood has...

I'm trying to tackle a few issues I've been having with my 2002 4300 HST. For a couple of years my parking brake light has been stuck on... but I can guarantee the brake is NOT on:) I realize there are cases where the brake is stuck but this is not one of them. Yesterday I took the plastic...

Not completely finished with the project but am getting close. The cylinders I linked in post #17 are going to work perfectly! Very easy to modify. I chopped off 1.5" of the base end which came as a "tang". This included the 3/4" pin hole it came with. I went to the local steel yard and had...

I went ahead and had the hoses made locally at the farm parts store. Probably not the cheapest way to get it done but it's done right. After studying the hose paths pretty closely it appeared to me that the length was pretty critical with the path they take. Too long and they wouldn't be able...

I'm attempting to replace all the short hoses on my JD 420 loader. Last week I busted a cylinder rod and I ordered some aftermarket bucket cylinders from surplus center. They come with SAE 8 (1/2"?) female fittings which I understand is fairly standard for a lot of cylinders. Anyway, since I...

The cylinders I found have a tang base end. From the picture I believe I should be able to simply weld on the cross-tube to the end with the hydraulic fitting at the 3 o'clock position (towards the hood of the tractor). If the tang end is too wide it should be amendable to trim a little.

Broke a cylinder piston on the bucket cylinder this weekend doing to loader work. Bucket cylinder was in full extension and bowed and snapped under pressure. I've attached a picture. I'm looking for some suggestions / opinions on my options for repair / replacement. I really use this tractor...

I've got an old Case 1190 that I acquired not too long ago when I bought my home/property. I didn't get a lot of information on the current maintenance from the previous owner but understood it was up to date. I'm a busy guy so can unfortunately neglect to be on time with regular maintenance...

I'm a little late with the update but here's a pic of the fix. The local pro welder charged me $200 for the fix. He used the broken fragments within the repair and fabricated a couple plates (one on each side) to strengthen the joint. The side you can see has the support plate welded 360...

Using the box blade yesterday and broke the connection point on the frame for one of the lift arms. I'm going to try and attach a picture in case it's not clear where I'm talking about. Anyway, I luckily found both small pieces. I ground the edges of all sides to give a nice deep v. I lined...

Used the ole' 4300 to do some snow clearing this past week (not often I get that pleasure here in Arkansas). Everything worked fine. Shut it off two days ago and it sat overnight. Yesterday I sat down in the seat and turned the key. Nothing. Not even an attempt at starting. I made sure my...

Its 7am and I'm standing next to my 4300 that I used to disk a food plot this am. Turned the key to the left and it keeps running. Scratching my head a bit I decide to just turn the pto on and get off the seat. That will at least temporarily fix it right. Nope. None of the safety shut offs work...

I have a 2002 4300 HST M4WD that has around 1200 hours on it. In the past year I've had an issue with the parking break light not wanting to turn off (even though I'm 100% sure the brake is off), and my cruise control switch won't stay on. I can hold down the cruise control switch and it will...

I've been a lurker on the site for a few years now... Came in very handy when I was shopping for my tractor. I'm a novice hobby farmer that loves to deer and turkey hunt. This 4300 is mostly for brush hogging, finish mowing and ground prep for food plots- then planting:) It's got about 1200...
