    Two Chain Questions

    I have a Kubota B2650 and a 16' equipment trailer. I'm relatively new to trailering. Currently, I use two lengths of 3/8" G70 and two binders to tie down the front and rear of the tractor. The chains go through D-rings on each side of the trailer and then through some pulling hooks on the front...

    Lane Shark Alternative?

    @photoneffect - Thanks a TON! For reference for anyone else who might read this while mentally planning things out, here are my reasons for overcomplicating the plumbing: 1. I want to run a motor valve that can reverse directions so I can also use it with a hydraulic auger. From watching the...

    Lane Shark Alternative?

    @photoneffect - Realizing now that my #1 question above is probably a dumb question because you mention running the unit with the backhoe on the tractor. Would still love to hear about #2 and #3, though. Thanks!

    Lane Shark Alternative?

    @cstamm81 - I saw that one, too, but figured for my relatively low-duty needs, I'd save the $2K in the difference. That one does look real nice, too! @photoneffect - Thanks for all the info. I figured that between the backhoe itself, swinging the boom, and my loaded tires, I'd be fine, but the...

    Lane Shark Alternative?

    @i7win7 - Thanks. Hadn't seen this one. Unfortunately, too heavy/tractor too small. I heard back regarding the GreenTec stuff. Also too heavy and $$$. Found this, though: SABRE SAMURAI CUTTER | Cutthat.com - Your Cutting Edge Technology Expert This has potential and is basically exactly what...

    Lane Shark Alternative?

    Also, @photoneffect - I googled "lane shark b2650" and found this - FS: 2017 Kubota B2650 with 299 hours (w/ loader, backhoe, 3rd function). In the Google cached version, it says you had a LS-3 and the tractor was plumbed for it. How did the Lane Shark work for you? Thanks.

    Lane Shark Alternative?

    The wonderful folks on this forum pointed me in the direction of Lane Shark in response to this thread I started - Sickle Boom Cutter?. The Lane Shark looks absolutely perfect for my needs, but... I have a Kubota B2650, and the Lane Shark folks told me my tractor is too narrow and doesn't have...

    Sickle Boom Cutter?

    Thanks for all the replies and help! Had no idea about the Lane Shark, and although it's not exactly perfect, the fact that it doubles as an ordinary brush mower more than makes up for that. Definitely going to give those guys a call on Monday. Great forum! Appreciate the help!

    Sickle Boom Cutter?

    I have a Kubota B2650 with a FEL (w/ third function) and a BH. I also have about 1000 feet of fence. Inside the fence is my lawn. Outside the fence is very, very dense brush and small trees. In most places, it's to the point that I'm not able to walk through it. Additionally, the brush is...

    SCUT Mowing - Ground Speed?

    Hi. New to the forum. I'm thinking about getting a SCUT for the loader and backhoe, but I can only make it work financially if I sell my ZTR and the ATV I'm using for snowplowing/utility. This means I'll need to mow with the SCUT (I'd get a 60" MMM). I mow 2.2 acres of average lawn (not a golf...
