Buying Advice L, M, or MX series? Can you offer guidance?

I guess you are relying on loaded tires with cast centers on your 7040 for ballast... You're going to kill the front axle unless you start using proper rear ballast on the 3 pt hitch... Just sayin.

I am going to have a little fun here, but this post will probabally get deleted.

I didnt know just how deep this went with case245 until I started searching. Quotes are ALL from him in various threads

THE OLD CASE 21hp I RAN TILL 2005 Was A BETTER TRACTOR THAT HAD 11K ON IT NEVER EVER CHANGED THE ENGINE OIL

im still up in the air bout the reiableity of the Kubota

Seriously? Sure, the kubota will last 11k if you never change the oil:laughing:

the kubota is no camparo to the 245 case ih we put 11k on the kubota wont last near as long im not inpressed with it at all i hate it i shold of bought a skid steer

A Skidloader wont last 11k when neglected either. But you are right, you should have bought one. (or anything other than a kubota)

the farmer i work for has a massey 362 its 55hp idk but told kubotas are crap id like mine it only lifts 200ibs more then the old caseih 245 21hp 3 cyl 60 cu in 2000ibs mach this thing 38hp an only wiegh 600ibs more c om n 200ibs more lift i cant drag loggs either the case did more

The farmer is an idiot. And lets compare, 2000lb case and 21HP, vs 2600lb kubota and 38 HP. The case can drag more???? Gee I wonder what could be wrong with the kubota?? Ballast??MAybe???

bluegill not knowi how to use a small compact c om i put 11k on a case skidin thosands of logs n tilling with 5 footer

Could have fooled me:laughing:

my loader welds cracked at a few places i got the tractor two weeks ago its a kubota 7040su

:confused3:

i going thourgh the dealer now i hope i dont to go the kubota it self i been moving heavy eqiupment since 8 years old running at 11 i never broke the case compact

very suprising

i have an 7040sud fel 4x4 loaded rear tires cast center can i add more weights to the cast centers they have square holes in them if so how much more can i add the back end was off the ground today

i was going to bolt more weights to the cast centers but i didnt know if the rear axle could handle it

Someone with your experience around equipment should know that wheel weights dont effect the axles

u guys judge me u do know me my back ground been on run equipment since 7 yrs old

It sure dont show it by your posts.

IMO, you should get rid of that junk kubota. And get something....anything but a kubota. You are giving them a bad name. You do know case still makes tractors right???? Get a CaseIH of whatever model you want, beat the pi$$ out of it, and never change the oil for 11k and see if you still think case is all that.:laughing:

We have seriously sidetracked the OP's thread...

My next question is one easily answered by a dealer, but it's 10pm here in SE Ohio! :licking:

When you add a loader to an L, M, or MX, I assume these model tractors already have the mid-mount remotes ready to hook up the FEL? The joystick comes with the FEL package I assume?

On the GrandL, the joystick is built into the station, and the FEL hydraulic connections are built into the station. So, if you do not get the FEL, all the necessary parts except the brackets/mounting points are already there. Philip.
