I'm looking at buying a front end loader for my MX5000 sometime in the spring. The local yokal Kubota dealer told me it would be 4700 for a FEL plus 360 for the hay spike. I seem to remember them being less expensive then that when I was buying the tractor. Also, I have heard that bush hog...

Well, I have been using it pretty hard lately and my bush hog is leaking out of the bottom seal now. What is a fair price to expect to pay a shop to change it? I have installed gears in cars before, would this be something I could possibly do myself or is there a bunch of special equipment...

Since I changed my fluid I have had horrible brake chatter when doing pedal turns. The fluid is to the correct level according to the sight glass. I did not use kubota fluid, I used a local brand. My question is should I add anti slip additive like I would for changing a posi traction rear...

I was thinking of making a toolbar style 2 row cultivator. Anybody done that? I have a CAD file of what I was kicking around if anyone wants to see.

What all is involved in getting a draft control lever installed on a tractor? There is a slot for the draft control and when I bought it the dealer said it could be installed later. I was thinking of doing this myself since I am pretty handy with this kind of thing. Is there a kit available...

Ok, I bought 1 gal of UDT from the kubota store and almost had to get a small business loan for that. I can only imagine what 11.5 gallons will cost. Who has a recommendation for something that is good quality, but not out of control expensive? I have seen the fluids at wal marts, and have...
