    Can I come back?

    Hello, I went from a nice Kubota B7500 4x4 HST to a Deere 990 Gear 4x4 with Backhoe. I had to go bigger! At the time I was going to be a bigtime loader operator. Stumping and digging holes. I looked at the hour meter on the deere after 1.5yrs of ownership to see 27hrs. 31k spent to figure that...

    3320 and 448 backhoe

    I have decided to trade my new 990 for a new 3320 ehydro. I have not had much luck trying to sell the 990 on my own. There is a bit of a glut of used CUT's out there in the market. That combined with 36 months of free money from deere makes it hard to move a new machine. The dealer has been...

    B7500 stalling and losing power when climbing

    I need some help. I am trying to determine the cause of my tractor losing power, choking out, and what seems to be a burning smell coming from the tractor when trying to go up a grade. The grade isn't huge and there is no load other than a ballast box while trying to climb up my driveway. Of...

    Chains  Tire Size for Chains - B7500

    I want to order some chains for my tractor. I have a B7500. I have the industrial tires. Can anyone tell me the correct size chains for this tractor? I have a pretty good incline to get up the driveway. Should I get them front and back? I am in snow country. thanks

    Ballast  Ballast Box Filler?

    Yeah Yeah I know I wasted my money buying the kubota ballast box when a 55 gallon metal drum cut in half would have done the job but.....Its done. What is the best material to fill the ballast box with? My friend just filled his with stones. There is quite a bit of wasted space in there...

    Front or rear mounted snowblower attachment??

I tried to read through other postings here about this topic but they seem to get off track pretty quickly without enough...
