I have been looking for a used comlete front grill for an L2900 with no success so far. I was looking at a manual for the L2900 and saw that it was also the manual for L3300, L3600 and L4200 tractors. Since they share the same manual would they all have the same sheet metal i am looking for...

Woohoo, 49 this morning heading for 73. I put on a sweatshirt for the first time this fall. We slept with our door to the pool deck open and it felt good.

1993 GMC Truck with 2005 Horton 36ft Flat Bed I was browsing our local Craigslist and saw this ad. A little big for me but seems like a preyy good price.

Good morning, 71 this morning on the way to 91. It is good to be home this morning after our trip to my brothers in Indiana. I was concerned driving 1000 miles with a truck that had been mostly sitting for the last 4 years towing a car dolly I bought on C list once I got there but it all went...

70 this morning, our last day at my brothers in Kokomo In. We have my wife's CRV on a tow dolly hooked to the truck I got fro m my sister-in-law and we are heading south this morning. I did a test tow yesterday and everything seems to be in good order. If all goes well we should spend the night...

70 degrees this morning at my brothers in Kokomo with a high of 86. We went over to my other brothers yesterday and I picked up his truck. I really don't need it but I always liked it and also just that it was his. While there my sister-in-law asked me if I was interested in his Honda scooter. I...

72 and a lot of thunder this morning at my brothers in Kokomo Indiana this morning. I am only one up this morning. We visited my oldest brother in nursing home yesterday. It really hurts to see someone you love and they don't know who you are. On the good side we went to my brothers 8th grade...

We are just a little south of Chattanooga this morning and 76 degrees. Heading to Kokomo Indiana where two of my brothers live. Supposed to get to 86 in Kokomo today. My oldest brother is now in a nursing home with Alzheimers so it is going to be sad to see him there.

90 degrees at 11:30 heading for 93. Just got back from first PT after shoulder surgery. Not as bad as I was expecting but I am glad I took a pain pill before I went. Going over to property to show my son how I would like lean-to on barn built to store hay.

75 degrees heading for 95 with 87% humidity. It seems odd to hear some of the low temps from others. I am recuperating from shoulder surgery Friday. It was suppose to be a simple clean up of bone spur and two week recovery. Doc found torn ligaments and now I have to wear sling 6 weeks and start...

76 This morning in Lecanto, heading for 86 and more thunderstorms. I can hear it rumbling now. Heading for Ocala this morning for pre-op at Dr. and Hospital. Having a bone spur removed from my left shoulder tomorrow. Doc says it will be minor surgery. I always thought minor surgery is something...

I have been looking at rotary cutters for my new (to me) tractor. It is a Kubota L3710. As I have been looking at them I have learned that some are rated for 40HP and some 65HP or 75HP and some are much heavier built than others. What I mow is pasture that is mostly bahai grass about a foot...

I am now on my third tractor, a Kubota L3710, and I am still on my first rotary cutter. It is a Kioti R53?? that came with my CK20. It cuts fine but is too narrow for my tractor. I found a used Woods C72 but I can't go look at it until Friday. The guy wants $950 for it. I am not sure how old...

I have an L2900 that I am planning on selling in about three weeks when I return from vacation. I bought the tractor last May. Here is the pertinant information The tractor has 2053 hours on it. It had 1972 when I bought it. It is a gear drive with shuttle shift on column. It is Four Wheel...

I purchased a very nice Kubota 3710 Friday at an estate sale. It has 830 hours on it and seems to have been well cared for. There was a man at the sale (Son in law i think) who was familiar with the tractor. The owner had it since it had 6 hours on it. The guy knew what kind of oil it had in it...

My wife and I are going to Africa July 10 and I would like to get a better camera. I don't want to carry around a big lense and big camera but I do want to be able to have a pretty good zoom factor. After reading some reviews I believe a Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FZ200 12.1 Megapixel Digital Camera...

It is 67 this morning in Lecanto and raining pretty steady. Suppose to be thunderstorms all day long. People south of us (Tampa) have been getting too much rain. Right now my cows can't keep up with the grass, which is pretty unusual this early in the year. I am going to have to start mowing or...

Nice Motorhome Wayne, We have had a lot of travel trailers and motorhomes through the years. In my opinion you can't beat a motorhome for seeing the country. Treks are a good value.

It s 40 degrees here this morning. I got up and made some coffee and had a piece of my wifes fantastic carrot cake for breakfast. I'm thinking about making that a Christmas tradition. We had family here from Indaiana yesterday, took them out on the Crystal river to see the manatees. The kids...

Good morning. 46 degrees and heading for 70 today. Good day to change front wheel bearing on my truck when it warms up a little.

we live in a development that is pretty popular with trick or treaters. I pulled a double axle trailer with my tractor with bales of straw around part of the neignborhood last night with 5 kids from 3 to 9 and thier parents. The kids (and parents) had a great time and got lots of candy. They had...

When I bought my L2900 the headlights were both broken and still are. I very rarely use my tractor at night and on my last tractor they were worthless because the front end loader was in the way. There is one time a year that I really need lights and that is halloween. Last year we had a...

My Radiator started leaking on my L2900 so I took it out (actually my youngest son did) and found a long crack across the bottom. I called the nearest dealer and they were very nice and even apologetic that a new radiator would be $640.00. I took it to a local radiator shop. He informed me...

My L2900 just turned over 2000 hours. I started to mow the other day and the radiator started leaking. I took it off and the bottom has a crack in it. I took it to a radiator shop today and he said he was suprised to see that it had a plastic bottom and top and that it was not repairable. I have...

My wife and I just returned from a fantastic 4 week trip to Australia, We travelled around a lot of the country and had a great time. We have never been anywhere where we were treated so well by everyone we met. I'm sure there are some grumpy Aussies, but we never ran into any of them. I...

This an ocean going coal barge turning around in our power plant canal after unloading. They don't have much room to spare. The barge has thrusters on the front sides that do most of the work. The tug at the side never tightened the line or touched the barge while I was watching.

My wife and I go to a lot of yard sales. We support a local charity by buying bicycles, tents, towels etc. , but we also always seem to end up buying things for us and our three sons. Two weekends ago we went to a sale that was supposed to start at 0930 and we got there a little after 0830...

I just received this from a friend at work and thought some of you might enjoy it too. competitor : KMS Tools & Equipment from Vancouver BC, Largest selection of tools in Canada

Last weekend I bought a tractor and trailer combination at a yard sale. I don't need the trailer so I put it on Craigslist. It is an unusual trailer in that the guy converted it to a dump trailer. Since it is home made and still needs some work I think I am asking a fair price. Opinions...

My son and I took the bed off last night. We cut the heads off of the bolts that hold it on, took out the tail lights, filler neck, and aux fuel tank. After we had everything disconnected my other two sons helped us roll it off the frame onto the ground. It was easier than I thought. The good...

I have a 2006 4 cylinder Toyota Tacoma that I bought brand new in 2005. I bought it mainly to drive back and forth to work and haul my kayaks and bicycles on. I really like my little truck but things have changed since I bought it. I increased my property size from 5 to 10 acres I bought my...

My youngest son is home from school for the summer and had said he would like to learn to weld. I posted a thread asking about welding hood advice and ended up buying one with an auto lense from Amazon.com. On Sunday we went over how the hood worked and I showed him how to run a flat bead and a...

My youngest son (21) is home from school for the summer and said he would like for me to teach him to weld. I went to tractor supply to get some new lenses for an old hood I have and was suprized to find that not many people use plain old hoods with the 2 x 4 lenses any more. They didn't have...

My wife just called me about a Kubota lawn tractor that she saw at a yard sale. She said it looks very good. I called the guy and he said he bought it new and has only used it for his yard. It has new belts, good tires, the deck is in good shape. He has all of the paperwork that came with it and...

I was just looking at our local (Ocala Florida) Craigslist and found this. Kioti CK25 Tractor It seems like a pretty reasonable price to me if it is not too old.

I have a Kioti CK 20 and like it very much but would like a little bigger tractor. Yesterday my wife and I were at a garage sale and the people had a New Holland TC30 sitting behind the house. I asked about it and the guy said he was going to be selling it soon. He said he bought it new 7 or 8...

A friend of mine at work inherited a 1984 John Deere 750 from his father. His father bought it new and it has 900 hours on it and is in very good condition. It is 2wd with a gear transmission and a RFM. It has ag tires on it that are also in good condition. It does not have a FEL. My friend said...

I have a 2003 kioti CK 20 and I did something pretty dumb. 95% of the time I get on and off of the left side of the tractor because the loader control handle is a bit in the way on the right side. The other day after a long day of fencing I was stretching fence with my tractor. I would pull a...

My wife and I went through Ocala Florida today to look at some calves for sale. As we were driving North out of town on US 441 we passed three tractor dealerships. John Deere, Mahindra, and Kioti all within a few miles. I came home and googled "Ocala tractor dealers" and found seven of them. I...

I have a friend with a 98 4200 and he needs to know the lug pattern for the rear wheels. He is looking at getting another set of tires and wheels but is not sure as to the lug pattern. Anyone know?

I wanted to have a drag to spread the manure around the pasture and also to smooth out where we dig burn pits etc. My old drag worked pretty well, but I had to leave it out all of the time. I wanted one I could pick up with the three point hitch and put in the shed and I also wanted to be able...

When I bought my tractor in November my wife hauled it home in my single axle utilty trailer. The trailer has a 3,000 lb axle, but it was a big load for it. A while back I bought an old car hauler from a man I work with. It was made from an old travel trailer. It has drop axles and brakes on...

I have been thinking of making a drag that I can pick up with my three point hitch. After looking at a lot of differnt styles I found one on youtube that is very close to what I have been thinking about. I was thinking of using heavy chain link or something similar for the part that drags. What...

I was talking to my brother on the phone the other day and told him we have put 60 hours on my tractor in the last month. We just bought 5 more acres with an old mobile home on it and have been doing a lot of work there. We have used the tractor to bush hog the pasture, pull down trees as we cut...

My wife has been doing a lot of cleaning up of the property we bought. The cat (smokey) from next door comes over every day and helps. He follows everyone around and does his best to get petted. Yesterday as she was getting ready to take a load to the burn pile smokey jumped up on the tractor...

We have had our (used) CK20 for about a month now. Up until now we have pulled down some prettly big trees as we cut them and we have pushed a bunch of limbs to a burn pile, tore out a bunh of old fence, etc. We recently bought the 5 acres next to our 5 acres and it was pretty neglected. We...

Against the good advice I have been reading here I decided to build my own box blade. I found some used ones within 70 miles on craigslist for $250 to $300 that looked pretty good, but about the same time they began cleaning up a construction lay down yard at work and I got some nice steel for...

Not long after I got my tractor my son was carrying a small stump a little to high with the front end loader. he backed up, stopped and the stump hit the grill. I told him about always carrying loads low to the ground but also decided I needed a brush guard. After looking at some on here and...

I bought my tractor off of Craigslist about three weeks ago. I have called the dealer in Ocala, Novia Industries, with questions about oil, hydraulic fluid, what year my tractor is by the serial number(2003) etc. They have always been very helpful and friendly over the phone. I asked them about...

Well, I am down to one thing not working on my new to me ck20. The hour meter does not work. The tractor is a 2003 and the meter reads 188 hours. I asked the guy I bought it from and he said it broke a couple years ago and he just didn't bother fixing it. (he was a little stingy witht the truth...

Hi, I have been lurking on forums recently to help me make a decision on what size tractor to get for mowing 8 acres a few times a year and also to clean out a few pig pens occassionaly. Well, this week my DW forwarded a craiglsist ad to me at work and told me I should check it out. It was a 6...
