Sorry if this is a dupe thread. I've been really busy lately and haven't kept up reading the forum. If redundant, please delete the thread. I got a call from my dealer today and they said there is a mandatory recall on a turbo hose on my l5460. They will come out sometime in the next...

I've had the front hood latch knob fall off a couple times on my rops l5460. Second time I can't find it. Kubota wants over 40 bucks for the whole assembly replacement, and no body has those in stock (even Messicks). Crazy that you can't just buy the knob, as I can't be the first person that...

I just changed the fiters on my l5460 hydraulics. The hoses going forward at the hydraulic filter were really tight in there and getting a strap on that filter was a pain. Now I can't remember how the hoses were routed right at the hydraulic filter (not the hst filter). Should have taken a...

Any tips on how to keep a kubota steering wheel center cap to stay on? Mine seems to catch on anything (like my sleeve) and pop out. Plus when I look at the "hooks" on the back of the cap, it looks like when they match the wheel holes, the K is not centered. Confusing..... Different subject...

I see references to the LP rb3584 but I don't see it listed on the LP website. What's the difference? That the T version can take hydraulics? Do they even still make the non T version? I am close to buying a rbt3584 because I want hydraulic angle now and maybe add in hydraulic offset once I...

I am ignorant about different backhoes and ways they mount to tractors. (Never used one before). I have a Kubota l5460 with a regular 3pt hitch (and 3 rear remotes with top and tilt). I am wanting to buy a backhoe soon for ongoing projects I have. Maybe a bh92? Can someone explain to me the...

I've read costs for car and light trucks dpfs run from like 2.5k to over 6k$. Any dealers care to look up and share the cost of a replacement dpf for say a l5460? Just curious. Manual says cleaning or replacement at 3000h, and hopefully in the next few years the technology for cleaning them...

I was at an AZ yesterday and picked up another drain pan. Flo Tool. Way flimsy and the cap doesn't catch on the threads. So I am looking for another drain pan (or two) at least 5 gallons and some way to pour. Any favorites? I am considering a Lisle 4.75 gallon.

I assumed all kubota engine oil was now compatible with all their machines. Yesterday I stopped by and picked up a jug of kubota 10-30 which they recommend but when I went to use it I noticed it was not cj-4 rated which my l5460 needs. I called them and it looks like the dusty old jug they dug...

I have a need to trailer my bcs 852 as compact as possible sometimes. That means detaching the attachment (mower) to fit it into the trailer better. Any simple ideas to have my 852 stand up "normally" without an attachment holding up the pto? Also the tires are slightly taller than stock...

Stupid question warning: I have a new Kubota l5460 which I am loving. Confess I am new to tractor world. I am currently using a heavy box blade (with an OEM tnt)and when driving around on uneven ground with the blade up the BB can swing far enough to each side for the arms to touch the...

I am loving my hrl3578. For what I am doing, I can't imagine not having the hydraulic scarifier bar. But I need to come up with a decent source for the teeth. Here's a pic of mine after only a few hours of what I consider pretty easy work in sort dirt, but with a few rocks in it. I expected...

That blade has a pin and a nut on the rear angle adjustment to take out play from wear, etc. The offset is just a pin in a hole, no obvious adjustment on tension. How well does that offset capability work out in terms of play or movement where it pivots for the offset? (I don't mean the...

Just pulled the trigger on a few more implements I need badly: ETA 84 inch Landscape rake (with custom offset added) and gauge wheels 60 inch Wicked Root Grapple bradco compact tractor PF with 48 inch forks. Along with my new RR and hrl3578 I am getting a good start considering I have only...

My new l5460 was delivered yesterday. Started having some fun and smelled hydraulic oil. It was dripping below. Jumping to the chase, it gushes when operating one of the rear remotes, like the top. Dealer was going to sent someone out to check it out, but I guess had someone driving by...

John has told me how long his ETA grapple hoses are on his LA805 loader (l4060). Anyone have a guess on how much "longer" an LA1055 loader is from the tube crossbar to the attachment point as compared to the LA805? I am trying to decide how much longer of hoses to order on my LA1055 than what...

My dealer claims that they pretty much only carry smooth top mowers because they have found that since folks aren't very good about cleaning off the debris/grass the ridged ones tend to rust out on top much faster. Is a smooth top rear rotary mower that much an advantage in the long run...

I am trying to figure out what the letters in the LandPride implements models mean. In some cases the 1 is light duty, the 2 is med etc And for say an HRL3578 maybe the H means hydraulic, L means low back, 35 is the series and 78 is the width. Not sure the R. RBT3584, Rear Blade , don't know...

I used to be pretty active in one of the big chainsaw forums and they talk about a phenomenon of that forum that has folks end up buying more and better chainsaws from reading the forum. I have more than I'll admit here. They call it CAD or chainsaw acquisition disorder. I've been following...

Say a person had a tractor with topntilt and 3 rear remotes. Say they were considering buying a LP RBT3584 which is a rear angle blade that can have manual or hydraulic angle, tilt, or offset. Seems likely the hydraulic angle is a no brainer. How best to put the other two remotes to work...

Kubota site lists the r4 tires the smaller (up through l4760) l60 series come with as REAR - 17.5L-24 R4 Firestone All Traction Utility The larger models (which have cat I, II) like the l5460 list the rears as REAR - 17.5L-24 R4 Titan Industrial Contractor TL What's the difference? Maybe the...

I just pulled the trigger on a LP BB with a hydraulic scarifier bar today. Really expensive but I decided I'll use it a ton and worth it in the long run. tough decision because it cost fully triple what a pretty decent looking HD ETA BB costs. But where does it end? Do folks think getting an...

I will be putting TnT on my l5460 (cat 1 and 2) at some point soon (don't have the tractor yet as dealer has ordered rear remotes). I was wondering how the current Kubota TnT compares to the aftermaket ones in terms of functionality and quality? Any advantages or disadvantages of each on a...

My dealer has ordered the rear remotes to put on my new l5460. Two floaters and one double action. (3rd function separate). I am not sure all the ways I'll use them, but probably it will include topntilt as well as maybe hydraulic scarifier bar on a BB at the same time. Any suggestions on...

Anyone know where I can figure out the retail price of a Land Pride HRL3578 BB? Seems like LP retail prices are a closely guarded secret. Dealer wants $3900, I am trying to figure out if there is any break in that price. Thanks, Bill

I really like the look of the ETA root wicked root grapples for my soon to have l5460 with la1055 loader. But since I will be handling logs and such as well as brush, it struck me that a single clamp would be nice in a width wider than the 50 incher they sell now (and a slightly beefier grapple...

Sorry to start yet another thread on BBs. I just ordered a tractor (L5460, 52hp with cat I or II) and one of the implements I need to buy in the next 2-3 weeks max is a box blade as I have alot of work to do on a new property. Thinking maybe like 78 inch wide model as tractor is about 74...

A dealer quoted me a price of $800 to have new l5460 tires (rear) filled with Rimguard. That sounds higher than I was expected, has it gone up that much recently? One poster said his tubeless tires actually slipped on the rim using Rimguard. And I read that some tire places will only fill...

Who has an L60 series, which one and how many hours? W hat do you think so far? My closest dealer hasn't sold one yet.

I see the larger Kubotas will take either cat 1 or 2 3 pt hitch implements. Will show ignorance here, is it simply pin size or are the lengths of the arms different? The size I have my eye on only takes cat 1 (l4760), but slight larger tractors take either. Is that a big deal, maybe a wider...

I decided to post this question as a separate thread in case of use to anyone else. Does anyone know if wr long (or EA) has figured out a configuration of a 3rd function valve kit and hoses for the lxx60? Including a third button? Looking for specifics, as the lxx40 and lxx60 look to be...

Is the WR long 3rd function kit the same as the one Ted at Everything Attachments sells? I have read postings about folks having problems a while back with the Kubota valve sticking. I could not find postings of that having been resolved. Any word on the street about which is a better way...

I would love to see pictures of an l4240 that has a 3rd aux function in front and rear remotes in terms of the hose routing. Esp on the right side of the tractor and underneath the right step area. Thanks, Bill

I am hoping for some opinions from experienced CUT folks on the choice between the l4240 and the l4060. I had planned to buy the l4240, but the local dealer that seems the best (and I hope to deal with over the years) does not have any and doesn't think he can get any more. So I looked at...

Does the regeneration produce lots of heat? Does it require extended road speeds to regenerate? Is there any sort of manual maintenance required? What is the life span of the filter? I can't find much specific info. Had an l40 series in mind but locally they are all gone and only the l60...

I received my 852 with the 26 inch delmarino mower and the 26 inch betra flail mower today. Spent some time getting accustomed to the brush mower and starting to get a handle on it. Any tips on setting up the betra flail or operating tips in grass and light brush with it? Seems like an odd...

Not sure if this should be here or in the other section. I am trying to come up with realistic maximums for ability to lift upwards with a chain with a FEL with some models of tractors. For example l3800 and l3490. I currently do that a fair bit to lift logs (like loading/unloading logs in my...

Can anyone point me to link to become more knowledgeable about differences in tractor configurations, etc? I need to buy a tractor for my new property soon. I am leaning towards a kubota. Think at least 30 hp, 4wd. Bucket (FEL) in front and want to be able to run a backhoe attachment in...

My local dealer has gone out of business and now no dealer within half an hour. Can anyone point me to a part diagram for an lx277 and an online parts source? My 2wd lx277 has lost some sort of pivot bolt on the cruise control. So lever doesn't do anything. It's been that way a while, and I...

I figured out my problem with my lx277 that would not engage the blade. Turns out it was the small kill switch pulled out in the back (kind of hidden). In trying to figure it out I took off the mowing deck (first time). So it's fixed, except now I have a part that fell off onto the floor...

I am considering buying a gas bcs 823 with maybe 6.5 x 12 x 23 inch wheels and some sort of brush mower. Localish dealer only carries the bcs mowers while I see earth tools seems to like the zannon super heavy duty. Is the Zannon better built? I am in the process of buying a 22 acre lot. Not...
