Wearing the seatbelt when traversing a hillside makes turning around to check the depth of any implement nearly impossible. I'd like to instal a backup cam that I could easily disconect and bring inside. Any thoughts?

I guess the M6040 would fit this category During happier times. . . . an argument for loaded tires From the seat, on the way out to fields to row water. I actually thought this cloud mass was going to finally give us some rain. WRONG!!

has anyone designed/built a FRONT dozer blade that attaches to either the 3pt arms on the frame/axle housing?

I, like everyone else, have read the manual. You should NOT backdrag with the bucket edge. To backdrag, use the heel of the bucket. Also like everyone else, I HAVE backdraged with the edge. And I never had gotten in trouble with the Kubota 1153 FEL. But now I have this Woods 126 FEL. I wasn't...

Ok, so I appreciate the assistence above. That said, I go out and diconect all the QD's from the FEL. I reattach. Still operates the same. It seems that the right side IS pushing down, but the left is not. I decide to actually go take a look at the bucket and cylinders. ****!:thumbdown...

Ok, so I got two different middle buster moldboards. I first ordered (3) 16" moldboards from TSC. That was just shy of $200, AND I had to pick them up at the store. Then, because I want to be able to experiment, I purchased (1) 12" from ASC. The moldboard was ~ $16, and the shipping an...

I was moving dirt, the other day. While dumping my loads, I was pertially driving up the dump pile. On one occasion, the edge of the bucket came down on to the pile annd I started rolling backward. Mistakenly, I attempted to dump the bucket further, and since this would have had to pull the...

So, Inever did find a hiller this year that could lay down two hills between my tires (42" inside spacing). So . . . I bought 3 16" middle buster moldboards from TSC. Why did it come to +$190 when ASC has them for like 15 a piece? And ASC has 12" too. But anyway . . . I plan to mount them...

M6040, and with these short days upon us, I need lights. With a FEL, the factory lights are USELESS. What have other operators used for auxillary lights? I'm thinking, Mount to ROPS?? Oh, and I need a chainsaw holster. :D

I've been gathering ideas from Flat Ballast Roller (3 PT Hitch) JDB Equipment 3 Point Hitch Implement - DE-FBR-150 Lawn Roller Just curious if anyone has fabbed one. The roller itself is the part I'm not sure about what would be the best way . . .? Jimbo

Well, I'm doing my best restoring ditches and re-crowning my gravel road with a Box Blade. Not getting the whole Box vs Back vs grader vs rake thing going;) . . . It's just that right now my rake is waiting on a re-engineer so I'm gonna use what I got. Heres my question . . . I sold an M5040...

Though I know I want TnT, I want to understand it better B4 I go off looking for one. My mount is a Kubota M6040. I have a long unimproved road/driveway that was put in over 10 years ago. Basically, no one has maintained in much. So I bought a box blade, thinking I would resell it (was a deal...

My skills: I used to do a fair amount of oxy/ace welding. For what ever reason I never tried/learned any type of electric welding. My needs (I think): Recntly I have paid a long time welder to do some jobs for me. Even if I had a great unit here today, I would still pay that guy for welding on...

So I made it about 3 months with NO TRACTOR:( But I dropped about 600 hours and gained 10HP, lost one rear remote, traded a Kubota loader for a Woods. . . and all for about $1000.
