    Backhoe Kubota BH92 Backhoe

    I have an L3560 HSTC and had a BH92 installed by the dealer a couple of years ago. The gpm is 8.1 and the tractor carries and works it just fine. The BH92 is Kubota's top of the line with a arched boom and I got a hyd. thumb with it and it is great for lifting and moving boulders and stumps, I...

    Glare Ice Solution

    My neighbor is a masonry contractor and he gets salt/sand mix and I have a open shed at the end of my drive that he puts it in and I have a Herd spreader I load up after plowing and spread on his hill and my hill. He pays for the material and I spread it, good deal. Wish I had a better picture...

    DIY backhoe dolly

    I made a dolly for my BH92. It is hard to move because of the weight of the BH, but once rolling it moves pretty good. PJohnson, mine is lower so that I can roll it into place under the BH while it is on the tractor and then use the out-riggers and bucket to lift it off the tractor and lower...

    Storing backhoe attachment for the winter?

    I have a Kubota L3560HSTC with a BH92 backhoe, I always store mine inside the barn on a dolly I made. I prevent "sag" of the out-riggers by hooking them together with a tie-down ratchet strap.

    9" snow pusher or 9' snowplow?

    I have a 1000' gravel driveway and use a plow I bought from QuickAttach that converts to a pusher with retractable wings. Like nybirdman said, pusher's are for parking lots, you'll use the blade much more than the pusher in residential use.

    Buying Advice Late 1950’s Wheel Horse Lawn Tractor

    I have a 1972 Wheel Horse I recently purchased (last year) and went on the "Red Square" site and it is all Wheel Horse. I love the fun little 'horsey'! Check out the site and you'll be hooked. Like 1965 said, offer $500. Great to show off at parades, farmer's markets, and other get togethers.

    I have a 1000' driveway and it meanders thru the woods and up hill to my house. On the hill the excavator put 'rip-rap' and pushed it into the ground by driving his TLB over it, then used 3/4" 'crush-n-run' over it. the hill continues to was out looking like the Grand Canyon but I use my...

    Slope Question

    You might want to think about a 'tiltmeter' like they have in the site store. I bought one because I have a lot of hills and uneven areas on my property.

    What did YOU do to your tractor today?

    I bought a "tiltmeter" from the store here on TBN and installed it today. Real easy to install and it came out great. Lots of hills and uneven areas on my property. This works nice!

    Snow Equipment Owning/Operating Pictures of your snow weapons

    I've been thinking about a rear blower for mine, but for now, this is the first winter w/o my truck and plow and using my Kubota 100%. Works well with plow and grader blade, but even with chains on the rear the ice on the drive is tough. I ordered chains for the front but they haven't come in...

    Fluorescent to LED

    I'm thinking of changing from Fluorescent lighting to LED. There are several ways I've looked at and all are kind of expensive. The most expensive is to change all fixtures and bulbs together. Less expensive is to just change the bulbs and bypass the ballast. The house has bulbs with pins on...
