    Anyone upgrade their seat on an L4400 or similar tractor?

    Just curious. My L4400 is great but a softer, easier riding seat would be nice. I do a lot of rough bush hogging and it gets to me after a while. Anyone upgrade theirs? What did you use? Pics or links to replacements appreciated. Thanks.

    Stihl Trimmer won't start when hot.

    I have a Stihl commercial trimmer, can't recall the model off hand, but it starts on the first or second pull when cold and runs great. After it warms up to operating temperature and I shut it off to fuel or put on more trimmer line, it absolutely will not start no matter what I do. Let it...

    3 Point Lowering Speed valve frozen

    I have an L4400 and was plowing and discing a field with it recently. I tried to adjust the 3 Pt Lowering Speed valve but found it frozen. It is the round knob under the seat which regulates how fast the 3 point raises and lowers. I have tried with both hands, as hard as I could manage, but...

    What size plow for L4400

    I'm in the market for a new bottom plow for my L4400 for food plot tillage. I've currently got an old Dearborn (Ford) 2X12" bottom plow. The L4400 is way overkill for it although it works well. It flies through the ground with little effort. Looking for 3pt type, thinking at least 3X14"...

    New remote hydraulic install cost?

    I've got a 2007 L4400DT w/FEL and am thinking about adding a rear remote hydraulic line setup. I currently have no remote hydraulics and would like to add one set. Before I go to my local dealer, anyone have a ballpark figure what it should cost for parts and dealer installation? Thanks.

    Snow Attachments  Quick attach snow plow for Kubota??

    I'm looking into a snow plow for my Kubota L4400. I have the skid steer/quick attach front loader bucket and was looking for that style of plow. Which manufacturers make them? How wide of a plow will my L4400 4wd (45 HP) handle? Who out there has a similar set up? Likes/Dislikes? Thanks.

    Typical Cost for 50 hour service

    I've got a new L4400 coming up on 50 hours. Has anyone had the dealer do the 50 hour service on a similar machine? If so, approximately what did it cost including filters/fluid/labor, etc? I suspect that cost of the filters/fluid will be the same either way. If I do the work myself, I'll only...

    Make up my mind- Landpride or Bushhog

    I've narrowed my choices for a rotary mower to a Bushhog Squealer 172 or a Landpride RC1872. Both are 6' mowers and should work well on my Kubota L4400 DT gear model (45 hp, 38 PTO) I'd like to hear from owners of each as far as service, durability, parts availabilty (I've got both dealers...

    L4400 Front weight bracket question

    I have an L4400 with the LA703 front end loader. The tractor/loader came with the front grill guard installed. If I take the loader off for field work, can I hang Kubota front weights on the grill guard? Or, is the Kubota weight bracket totally different than the grill guard? Pictures of...

    Looking for a rotary mower for my new L4400. I want the Bush Hog brand since I've had others Bush Hogs on my Ford NAA and like the brand, its quality, and performance. Plus, there are two dealers close to me for parts, blades, etc. Looking for input from others with similar tractor sizes...
