In the image below, taken of the underside of the floorboard on my Kubota L4400, there is a stainless steel hydraulic line that is shaped like a P trap that you would find under the sink in your bathroom or kitchen: That P pipe has a bad habit of getting hung on tree limbs and stumps. One...

Recently a stick or stump bent the J-pipe on my Kubota L4400 (#170 in the image below) I have a new one ordered. The bolt (#180 in the image) was so tight that I had to push with my foot on my 18-inch wrench. Does anyone know what it should be torqued to when I reassemble this?

I posted this on another forum, but it got only one reply. I have a Kubota L4400DT. The engine turns over fine and the battery is nice and strong. Sometimes the engine starts immediately, but other times I can crank and crank and it will not start at all. A couple of possible clues: When...

Where is a good place to get a radiator cap? Coleman Equipment shows the Kubota Radiator Cap for my BX2200 is 56930-25870 and $35.63, plus shipping. BX2200 Radiator Cap 56930-25870: $35.63 NAPA, Messicks.com, and tractorpartsasap.com do not even show this part. Apparently, my local Kubota...

I spent the day out on my Kubota L4400DT mowing pasture, about 10 hours all together. I get back in, add 5 more gallons of diesel to the tank as it was down to about 1/2, greased all of the joints, and my dad thinks there is water in the fuel filter. So, I turned the petcock off at the filter...

Davy, what is the "long term" results of this? It has been 7 years now. I'd love to have someone on here comment. My front tire has been punctured and repaired 3 times so far this Spring due to freakin' bamboo poking holes in there. Like Davy, each time means no use of the tractor until it is...

Well, it's a start.... The mower goes down and gets secured before traveling, of course.

One of these: Reese Universal Coupler Lock, Model# UTL100 Notice in the reviews, other people comment how easy they are to break into. I wished I had seen those reviews before purchasing the one I got.

As stated in the title, the radiator (specifically the screen in front of the radiator) gets clogged rather quickly, it seems. OK, I'm out mowing about 9 hours straight per day for the last 3 days. Lots of dusty fields. After 5 hours of saddle time, I see the temperature start to climb...

OK, what causes fish tailing? It must have something to do with how the load is setup on the trailer. I pulled the tractor to a field that needed mowing, and noticed the trailer started fish tailing if I got over a certain speed. So, I maintained that speed. No big deal. I finished mowing...

I had to look up FEL > FEL - What does FEL stand for? The Free Dictionary We are under a burn ban at the moment. Once it is lifted, I'm going to have a fire that is visible from space when I light mine. Definitely understood Beer time, though! (pic from last February)

:) Here is the procedure my LandPride owner's manual shows: The information in the part called Slip-Clutch Protected Drivelines should be universal to all mowers with slip clutches. I was talking to the service guy when I was at my Kubota dealership once. He said they don't bother with the...
