You’ve probably checked this but depending on the depth that the tiller shoes are set might be allowing the tines (depending on rest/off rotation) to contact the ground and leave the shoes up a little. Maybe the shoes were a little loose and that is throwing you off.

Go with raised center bay truss and you can keep sidewall heights lower and still have center bay for higher door and your lift.

Your tractor should have no problem with a 6’ if you decide to widen your beds. I have a 40hp (34 @ PTO) and run a 6’. Covering your tracks is handy for everything except your raised bed plan.

I have a Diamond C 7k, 5x10 dump that has ramps and I use for equipment. It was $5,100 a couple years ago. Having a dump is really nice.

Congrats and enjoy. Welcome to TBN!

I advance back or forward or side to side with the BH push or pull method - but whatever works. I don’t have enough ingenuity to invent your solution 🤔

Yes, here's a photo of the Kubota offering that dealer installed. Not had much time on it but it's wonderful!

Here’s my LP in action if that helps.

Not cheap but I have one of these in 8’ width. https://www.americanharrow.com/

If you’re referring to the GL4060 the seat sucks IMO for anyone over 225 lbs. Bite the bullet and install an air ride seat. There’s lots of posts here on Grammer seats who I’ve heard, makes Kubota’s “OEM” seat.

I was part of a dam removal and river restoration team several years ago. The GC regularly does river work and all the CAT equipment used bio hydraulic oil. I remember him saying it was expensive, I can find out what they use if you want..

Don't think you'll find hearing protection with the walkie-talkie but I might be wrong. I have ISO Tunes and am very happy with them for BT and hearing protection. Hearing Protection

Welcome from SW MI

I use the heck out of my BH92. Get the mechanical thumb. It’s not anywhere near a mini X in capabilities but most of us aren’t digging to 10’. You’ll find all kinds of useful projects. My BH stays on from June-Sept. and it’s a beast! On the 92 you can relocate the seat back a little to gain some...

I bought this one last year on sale for $326. It is very quiet and replaced a 40 year old Craftsman that was sooooo loud.

Yesterday mornings cleanup. Same with today! Maybe we’ll get a break tomorrow. Merry Christmas everyone!

You can do the top just not the tilt w/ BH. My dealer takes the OEM TnT Kit and sells just the T.

I built this to drop into my dump trailer and clean river rock. It worked ok but wow what a mess! Luckily I had the wife on the power washer so she got most of it. I gave up after awhile - took to much time.

Agree, rent one of these. The abuse these mulchers place on the machine is pretty severe.

I agree on a nice heavy back blade. It can be expensive to invest in front snow blades. I have a pusher but I can only push so far before, I have to unload off the shoulder somewhere. Sounds like you’re just plowing to get your wife out!

Good advice he is our guru!

Yes on the mechanical thumb! Yes on the top hydraulic cylinder. Dealer told me with a BH can’t have a side hydraulic cylinder - I did not verify. Get yourself a quick hitch.

Disregard my last it’s if the tractor is running. :rolleyes:

Isn’t there an adjustment knob or lever under the seat that controls 3PH drop speed?

When the pusher fills up the snow starts coming over the top, you’ll have to angle off to the side and empty. Do you have room to do that? I have a pusher and the backdrag kit and like it but I only have hard surface clients so I can’t answer on gravel. It has no parts to break which is nice...

If you have a Speeco ehitch there’s this option. GWT Hitch Hanger for Suitcase Weights

I bought this one and it was delivered a couple weeks ago. Fitment on my Kubota was very tight and lock pins protruded an 1-1/2” or so - very positive lock up. Came naked w/ no packaging but was not beat up. Looked to me as though the horizontal cross tube that the 2” receiver is mounted to, is...

2012 Yamaha Drive. I like the idea of upgrading to Lithium battery.

Good info, we bought an electric one from a golf course auction this summer and I'd like to clean up the batteries and cables - I'll keep this thread bookmarked.

Skip the mini and don’t worry about trailering. Pull a dump trailer behind you with attachments. Hire out the trucking if it’s a bigger job. Not many people in your area will be competing at this level. Of course I’m biased and at work spend almost all my time on streets and roads. This thing...

Wow sounds great. Take a pic please.

Old tainter gate chains, broken hydraulic breaker, rebar, some gym weights - pretty much anything steel. Heavier than concrete but doesn’t fit in as well.

Zero Turn mower. Sorry about the initialism.

R4’s are relatively easy on your lawn. Keep the bigger tractor.

FYI check your ZT lug nuts also - found mine to be below torque specs.

Oh….the things we haven’t shared with our better half’s! Your secret is safe with us ;)

Don't feel bad we've all been there. My kid called me last week all frustrated and ready to give his JD rep the "what to" when he couldn't get his 3PH implement to lower. He was glad that I told him about the adjustment knob under the seat for 3PH - he must have thanked me 20 times.....I said...

93-1/2” ish - including the beacon ;)

Jeff is our TBN technical guy. I have probably a size up or so CUT than yours and found a EA 66” 18” pans disc harrow. It feels and pulls too small for me so I would say you’d be ok up to somewhere in the low 60’s inches. And, welcome to TBN!

This has come in handy for me when I've had to figure out sizes. Grease Fitting Thread Tester

I have a 5’x10’ dump that is “about right”, I wish it was 6’x12’. I have a 6’x12’ enclosed utility trailer that I swear is 2’ too short. Go with the 14’

Welcome from Michigan.

Here's a video that Paul Short did on clatter in the cab, probably not same thing but thought I'd pass it on.

A poster uses this for carpenter bees and I tried it, worked great for quite awhile. Bought it at Lowe’s. He said the cyfluthrin is the key ingredient. They have other products under this label.

GWT had them for awhile I think. Good Works Tractors | Tractor Attachments & Accessories

I don't know if a Grand L is on your radar but the features of HST+, the dual speed, ability to set HST response, and the auto throttle - are really nice when you're doing a lot of loader work. The throttle up button on the joystick is great too, especially if you're using auto throttle to keep...

I have an EA 66” and it’s pretty light (580 lbs). I paid $1,500 for it new last year from neighbor that never uncrated it. It works good to run over grass before tilling. It also works good to disc in leaves in farm field. I’m going to add more weight someday. It needs some heft to it to...

I haven’t noticed that but I do think the diesel clatter is more noticeable at various times. I’m partially deaf though :oops:

With LA10 series loader it’s in that size range. My guess is MX???? The gas cap is in wrong place to be a Grand L, as is joystick and throttle.

Maybe a little dielectric grease on those plug connections might help?
