I would highly recommend. Above are some before and afters of some pond bank maintenance and fence row clearing.

I have a hydraulic leak in one of the hard lines on the block to my rear remotes. See highlighted circle in pic. Someone has used jb weld on it in the past but its leaking again. I cant find a part number for the block or on a diagram. Can anyone help with a part number. Its an L3240DT...

My M5-111 has a detent valve and a standard float valve. I have the tailgate of my JD 459 baler connected to the detent valve. The detent valve should “lock” when depressed then cancel”return to neutral” when the tailgate opens fully and closes fully. This functions sometimes as long as the...

I'm looking at a 2032R from a neighbor with a belly mower, loader, and barely used Deere 46 backhoe. The tractor is a 2016 with less than 100 hours and looks new. He wants 18K. This seems like a fair deal based on the deere "build your own" site. I cant believe how much $$ these...

On my new 5075e I cannot keep the engine RPMs steady using the foot throttle. The hand throttle is fine, but using the foot throttle, I am getting a ton of "bounce". Feels like maybe not enough friction, or needs a heavier spring or something. Anyone know if there is an adjustment or heavier...

I have a newly installed diverter kit installed on a 5075e. It came with 2 female ag type couplers installed on the front of the loader. My grapple has the flat faced couplers so I have to switch out one or the other. I decided to go with the flat faced mainly cause I always forget to use the...

My new 5075E was delivered yesterday. I am now already wanting to start modifications to make the tractor as useful for my needs as possible. I am replacing a Kubota L3240 which I had installed the factory 3rd function kit. I initially thought on the new 5075 I would just run the hoses to the...

I'm in the market for a 12 ft. cutter and on the fence as to brand and options. I didn't see any recent topics comparing models so I'd like to open a new discussion. The brands I'm considering are the Landpride RC2512, the Woods BW12, and the Rhino TS12. I've priced all three locally and all...

I am buying a used Woods Groundbreaker BH 9000 from a friend who upgraded to a new bx90. I have a L3240 and a couple questions. 1) Is this hoe too big for the L3240 or is this a good fit? 2) I have to buy a subframe. Are these still available and about what is the ballpark cost? Where can I...

I think my fuel may have become gelled. Bought 400 gallon of fuel back in the summer so maybe it had no treatment? Anyway it痴 been single digits here with windchills below zero. I keep my 5083e plugged in so it always fires right up. However, went to set out hay and about 100 yards it quits...

I have a 2011 5083e with 750 hours. This evening I was late getting home from work and had to set out hay after dark. With the front work lights shinning through the exhaust it seemed like a lot of smoke. I've never noticed this before. Is some visible smoke normal for this year model? Maybe...

I am in need of some advice on how I can lower the flow on one of my rear tractor remotes for a hydraulic tie system on a round baler. The baler has a hydraulic tie system but there is no adjustment as to the speed. I have to either stop in increments across the tie area or manually throttle...

I am needing to slow the flow for operating a baler hydraulic tie. I can't seem to find a flow adjustment on either of the SCV valves on my 5083e. Just wondering if I'm missing something or the flow isn't adjustable. Thanks

I have a JD 5083e which has 2 rear remotes both with non-detent valves. I need one of the valves to be self canceling detent for operating a round baler tailgate. Can one of these valves be converted or do i have to just replace the valve?

The temperatures here in Western KY right now are frigid to say the least. I should've already done this, but I just bought a block heater, part no. RE227949. Now I can't figure where to put it. The directions are not clear. Can anybody help point me in the right direction. Pics would be...

I recently picked up a used anti sway kit for my 2011 5083e. On the John Deere configurator it is part number BLV10121. The problem is the brackets that the factory installed anti sway chains won't work with this kit. I do have the brackets (came with the upgrade I bought) however no mounting...

Does anyone know how to activate the glow plugs on a 5083e for cold weather starting or does this model even come standard with glow plugs?

Just got my new 5083e delivered and want to install a radio. My understanding is that these tractors come radio ready meaning speakers and harness are installed. My question is how to get the radio in? Does the cab roof have to come off. Ive searched and see conflicting info. I was able to...

I've been in the market for a 5083e for a while now. Today I came across a used 2010 with 100 hours with the 563 loader. Not many upgrades other than air ride seat. Price is 38,000. It is in excellent condition. This is substantially less than what Ive been quoted new but I still have to...

I managed to jab a stick through the grill of my L3240 while grappling some brush. The damaged section is the one right under the headlights in the very front. Anyone know the best (most inexpensive) place online I might be able to order a replacement?

After much thought and research and after several weeks of chainsawing and hand working limbs and trees left over from the great KY ice storm of 2009, I have decided to bite the bullet and purchase a new tractor to assist in this eternal task. I think I have pretty much decided on the B3200...
