    L3901 at 50 hours

    I rolled over 50 hours today and I'm really satisfied with this tractor. I've already done a lot of the cleaning up of my property, granted there was only about 2.5 acres that needed cleaned up. The DPF hasn't caused me any concern. So far it's needed to regen three times is all. I didn't...

    First fix on the BH

    The left control for the BH has been becoming more and more unresponsive and I opened the console this morning to see what was going on and found the guide plate (?) had lost one bolt and the other was loose. I took it off and straightened it back up in my vice and bought some new bolts at the...

    Backhoe  How hot should BH cylinders get?

    After a couple hours operating my BH digging at stumps I find the cylinder to be hot to the touch. It's almost too hot to touch while mounting/dismounting the BH operating platform. Is this normal?

    Backhoe  Dug up first stump

    Dug up an old stump that's been annoying us for some time and drawing termites too close to the house. This took approximately 5 hours on the tractor's gauge to dig up and drag away. It was heavy enough that the FEL wasn't able to lift it, even after spending some time clawing the dirt off...

    Purchased a L3901DT in the end

    Well, I ended up purchasing a L3901DT with FEL, BH, Box Blade, Rake w/gauge wheels and pallet forks. Now to make good on the various projects discussed with DW on the lead up to the purchase. Ornery thing is we've already committed to go someplace for quite a bit of next week so it will all be...

    1st, 2nd & 3rd Spool Kits for 2538HST? Pictures? Should I DIY them?

    Are there any pictures floating around of the spool kit options for the 2538? Do they just daisy chain off the loader power beyond? My googlefu isn't finding much. I'm trying to justify the prices they show on the site for the options. The best I figure they must do some really sexy...

    Leaning toward Mahindra

    Until recently I've been leaning toward Kubota and was looking at other manufacturers more as due diligence than anything. I'd originally been looking at B series and the dealer redirected me to the L series. A thread I'd posted on the Kubota forum lead me to re-evaluate what I'd been looking...

    Tractor Sizing  Pre-Purchase homework - L3301DT Package

    I'm planning on purchasing a L3301DT Package from my local dealer. He suggested the smaller L2501 but I want more HP than my Husqvarna mower has. Their package is the L3301DT 4WD, LA555 Loader, LandPride 60" Cutter and 60" Box Blade. I'm planning on adding R4 Tires and fluid. I'm planning on...

    Long-time lurker

    I've been lurking here off and on for quite a while now but thought I'd finally drop an introduction before I start asking questions, etc. We don't currently have a tractor and I'm looking pretty hard at some orange ones up the road. I'm busy scheming up projects to make sure I choose a...
