New Kubota M7040SUHD or not!

This one is fully synchronized. The older center shift version with the dry clutch had the crash box.

Sounds like a great deal if the 4 speed transmission is fully synchronized. The extendable lift arms can be added.

Hydraulic shuttle plus fully synchronized 4-speed.

Trans shifts good. I do a lot of haulage with it, loads of round bales and dump wagon hauling 5 to 6 ton in it, nice not reaching between your legs to shift.

Extendable lift arms nice but not "needed", I mount 3pt disc mower on and off daily during haying, work good if you unhitch it right! (wouldn't turn down extendable arms.....)

I'm an old guy and need extendable lift arms as I no longer try to muscle three point equipment around to hitch up.

Again, sounds like a great deal.

Loader comes off whenever it isn't needed. Some days I've taken it off for a few hours and put it back on later that day, that's how easy it is.

Factory light kit was about $100 per side (two lights) The wiring pig tails are tucked in the ROPS, separate circuit for each side, but you'll need to have a switch, otherwise they are on and off with the ignition. I wired both LED to one circuit and used one switch. Go with Hella

I do that too. Several owners here on TBN never take their loader off. Different uses, different expectations.

Feel's like a sports car with it off
Anyone here have Kub's fancy "lever" type hydraulic hitchup that does them all at once? I forgot what the call that option. That's the only part of the procedure that has given me some trouble with pressure in the lines.

Good question!!! I don't have it either. I don't believe I have ever heard anyone on TBN talk about having that option and/or how well it works.

Took me a few times to get proficient at removing/installing the FEL. Also to learn how to best avoid line pressure. Beyond the normal, wiggle valves, relieve pressure, etc., biggest thing I've learned is to pay attention to oil temp. Helps tremendously to unhook warm or hot. Worst case is unhooking with cold oil and cool temps.

This is a pic of the quick disconnect for the loader on my L4060. Works great, no problems!

How do you put the lines in and such? How easy?

It's really pretty simple. The picture shows the silver handle and that rotates around the female flat face fitting and grabs the male connector and inserts it. It's a quick and simple option and makes removing and installing the loader a breeze.

Thanks for the pic Stu. Next time you remove the FEL take us some pics of the process if you remember. Thanks!!!
