    Diesel fuel, how old is too old?

    I sometimes leave my Kubota B26 with the same tank of gas for 2 years or so. How long can you keep the same fuel in a tank before it goes bad? I use the best fuel additive on the market, just not sure how long that extends its life. Thanks in advance

    Mowing  How do you rig a JD2032R to mow in reverse

    I would like to know if anyone has figured out where to put the jumper wire which enables a JD2032R to mow in reverse without having to pull up on the RIO switch. I did this on my X595 and it works great. A friend of mine just bought a 2032 and would like to do the same. Any help would be...

    Tooth bar for bolt on cutting edge

    Anyone know where I can get a tooth bar for a bucket with a bolt on cutting edge? I found one place that wanted $350 for a regular tooth bar and $700 for one for a bolt on cutting edge. Doesn't make sense why there would be such a big difference in price. Anyway if anyone has a link to a good...

    Snow blower snow chute w/ linear actuator

    I just installed a linear actuator on my JD 47" snow blower. A guy on ebay is selling these kits all set up with the wiring harness, switch, bolts, everything needed and step by step instructions, it even includes JD logo stickers. It works great, worth every penny. Here are some pictures:

    Clamp on pallet forks, are they worth buying?

    I'm thinking of buying a set of pallet forks. I don't have much storage space and I won't leave anything outside, so I was considering the clamp on style forks. Can anyone tell me if they are worth buying?

    Smaller John Deere out pulls bigger Kubota

    Not sure how this will help, but here they are. You think 2500# is a lot of weight for an 18' trailer? I thought it was pretty average.

    Smaller John Deere out pulls bigger Kubota

    I couldn't believe it. I have an 18' 2500 lb trailer, which I used to pick up a piece of furniture. When I got it home, I decided if I pulled the trailer up on my lawn to my front door it would make getting it inside much easier. We had just had about 6" of snow fall, there is maybe 3" left...

    Aint owning a Kubota just the best?

    You just described what I call, a perfect day. Wax the tractor, admire it for a while while drinking a good glass of wine, then take it for a ride. All along my dog sits and watches. Just not sure which one I enjoy cleaning up more, the orange or the green.

    Snow plow UHMW cutting edges

    Anyone know anything about the UHMW cutting edges for snow plows? Are they worth buying? I was thinking about putting it on a 54" plow that I bought for my JD X595. I have a somewhat rough blacktop driveway, and just curious how long I can expect it to last and what kind of abuse it could take...

    Front PTO install on a JD X595

    Instructions say to drain front and rear axles. Why would i drain the rear axle? I can only assume they mean (even though they dont state it) to do that for a full time 4WD tractor like the x748. The other question I have is, it doesn't say to pack the bearings with grease, so does that mean...

    GX335 54" deck and 42" snowthrower

    To start off, does the GX335 have the hydraulic deck lift? If so the snow thrower is an easy setup. It hooks up in about 10 minutes tops. I had a GX345 with the snow thrower and loved it, wish I still had it. I don't remember if I had to install a front lift kit or not, but even if I did, it...
