I have a Yanmar B65 backhoe attachment for my tractor. The dipper has started to quickly leak down if hydraulic pressure is not applied to keep it extended. With engine on or off, the rate is the same. It goes from fully extended to fully retracted in just over 3 minutes. Everything else seems...

I've got a trail that runs up the side of my mountain. It's badly eroded in one spot, I wanted to fill it in before it makes the trail impassable. It's washed out on the downslope side, and it's extremely steep. Not sure if I'd even be able to get up it on foot. Initially I drove 4 metal t...

My 424 is 4 years old with 600 hours on it. I recently noticed the air filter housing assembly is just loose enough that it has worn a fairly large gash in the top of the radiator. I’m surprised that the plastic housing is the winner in a plastic rubbing on metal situation. I stuffed a bit of...

I'm planning to purchase a new RTV1130 UTV for use around the farm. Kubota is requiring insurance on it since it will be financed. Their insurance is about $30/month which seems awfully high for something that will never leave the property or see a public road. I called my insurance company and...

I recently moved to a large property at the base of a mountain. One major problem was the lack of drainage for the garage, water was coming in the back wall every time it rained. There was also an old corn crib directly behind the building that was built up well above the garage itself...

Before I get too creative with the duct tape, does anyone know of anywhere to get used parts for these tractors? My hood has broken, and the dealer quoted me $768 for a new one. Needless to say, I'm going to cobble it back together and then just have to manually pull the whole thing off...

My 424 has developed a slight leak which I believe is coming from the seal where the rear axle mates to the transmission. The picture shows the leak and the spot it leaves on the ground after one night. Transmission fluid is not overfilled. I've only had the tractor 15 months and it's got about...

Well, I had a senile moment today while changing the oil and ended up with a part of my oil funnel in the crankcase. I'm trying to get the oil pan off to remove all the plastic debris, but that sucker is really tucked up between the frame rails. Anyone have any tips on how to get to it priced...

I recently acquired a used Land Pride rototiller, but the driveshaft is too short for my tractor. Do I need to replace the entire shaft, or can I find just the tractor side and replace one end? Second, the current driveshaft has a slip clutch. Is the slip clutch part of the driveshaft, and if...

When greasing, if there's a bit of grease being pushed out of the bushing am I over servicing? Also noticed the FEL hydraulic pistons are able to slide back and forth laterally over the mounting bushings. I've got about 35 hours on my new machine, is this normal wear as it breaks in?

My entire backyard has had standing water since I moved into my house in December. I suspect it's primarily due to compaction, as the previous owners had a good 15+ trees cut down back there. The standing water seems to be in all the ruts created by the tree trucks. Fortunately for me, they left...

Well I just signed the paperwork today, and my new SA424 TLB is being delivered tomorrow. I'm pretty stoked, especially since I was originally planning on the 221. My dealer offered the 424 for about 3k more than the 221, and it seemed crazy to pass up that much more tractor for a couple...
