    L2800HST/LA463 Loader/BH75 hoe

    I've got an 06' L2800hst that I bought new. It has 400 hours on it that has been used 95% for mowing grass with a rear finish mower. I also have the FEL and backhoe with subframe on in. FEL might have 20 hours on it and the hoe, 10hrs at the most. Its all well maintained and barn stored...

    Bent FEL rod/piston

    I'm trying to help out my mother in law with problem with the ML108H FEL on her Mahindra 2810 HST. Her husband has recently passed and to make a long story short, nephew may have jacked up the loader somehow. As you can see from the pic, the far cylinder rod that operates the curl function is...

    So my father in law has a 2004 2810 HST. He has a blown head gasket and there are no local dealers around anymore. He's wanting to tear into the job himself, but is having trouble finding a service manual. Are there any out there for this model?

    Electric Tomato Strainer/Juicer?

    I'm looking for some type of electric tomato strainer to process tomatoes for canning. I've got the standard hand crank type juicer, but would like to speed up the process. I've found a couple imported from Italy. It just seems there isn't much to choose from. A Spremy and OMRA model and...

    Potatoes and frost

    I planted my potatoes on Good Friday, like grandma said to do. Most of them are up and we got hit with a good frost the past two nights. Will they continue to sprout, or am I going to have to replant them all? all of the leaves are dead. This is only my second year growing potatoes in the...

    Backhoe  Quick Backhoe Oper. Question

    I've got a L2800 with BH75 hoe. My cousin needs about 60-70' of waterline laid at his new house. He has a 16' stock trailer and my TLB will not fit. However, if I remove the loader it will fit. Would you all see any problems in digging this little bit of a trench without the FEL on the...

    I want to get my dad a GPS. He needs one that will work on road trips and a hunting trip into the Colorado mountains. I thought I would kill two birds with one stone if I could find a handheld unit that also routes will on the highway, but I want it to have the voice feature while giving...

    Any deals out there on new log splitters?

    I figure this is the time of the year when places will try to start moving them. I'm up in the air as to tractor vs stand alone. I like the speed of the stand alones, but I am kind of leaning towards tractor mounted since I only put 50-60 hrs a year on my tractor. I have a Kubota L2800 that...

    New truck using oil during break in?

    I've got a new half ton pickup with 1100 miles on it. I checked the oil today and it was a hair over a half quart low. Is this normal with a new truck? This is my first new one in 12 yrs. I think the salesman did say it may use a little oil up to the first oil change.

    Here comes the FROST.

    Did anyone's garden get wiped out by the heavy frost we had in the Ohio region last night? My corn just came through a couple of days ago and it looks Ok so far. Really, the only thing that looks bad are a few of my tomato plants and the zuchini plants.

    Will the BH75 fit a B3200?

    I know it fits the 7800, but I'm not sure about the 3200. Can the hoe work in tandem with a MMM on the 3200? Do the lift arms need to be removed when attaching the hoe? Thinking about trading my L2800 in. I get tired of having to remove my mower everytime I want to dig a hole.

    Slow

    What is going on here in the Mahindra Buying/Pricing forum? The activity seems to have dropped way off in the past few months. No new posts in the buying/pricing section for 6 days and the biggest thread since the first of the year was regarding Mahindra trucks. I know this has been the slow...

    Woodburners...Gotta love em.

    I installed a Brunco 150 woodburning furnace and a 18' Metalbestos stack early last fall. What a difference in the electric bill. I heat about 2,600 sq. feet between my basement and main floor. I heat solely with electricity in the past and our average monthly bill used to be around $325 per...
