    Is the ROPS really needed?

    I sure hope my post doesn't incite the wrath of the safety police, but I would like to get a few thoughts on removing the ROPS. Here is my situation; I have a Grand L with FEL that I wouldn't dream of removing the ROPS from. However, I recently acquired a BX2200 strictly for mowing. During...

    Can I straighten an FEL bucket?

    Okay, I used my L3010's FEL to push over a tree. Aprox 12" trunk. As a result of pushing with the cutting edge of the bucket, it is now noticeably bent. Has anyone successfully straightened a bucket edge?

    New (to me) BX2200

    I've been shopping for a mower that will shorten my mowing times. We are now on 4+/- acres, and the JD 42" cut takes way to long. The Grand L with finish mower is hard to maneuver around all the trees and misc yard stuff, plus the big tractor tears up the ground so I can't take it near the...

    Kubota L3010 rearaxle queston

    I have an L 3010 GST with 550 hours on the clock. 4x4, FEL, ag tires. It's been a nice tractor. Recently started hearing a creaking noise from the right rear axle area. I Checked all wheel studs/bolts, and they were tight. The noise is worse when the tractor has a heavy implement. So...

    L3010- creaking noise in right rear

    Tiller  tiller? or bottom plow/disc ?

    I'm approaching decision point, and am interested in opinions. I'm going to either purchase a 5' tiller to pull behind my Kubota 30 hp 4 x 4 tractor, or find a single bottom plow and a tandem disc. The cost of each option is close to the same, so it's a matter of which method will provide the...

    Lift Arm Adjuster gearbox

    Hey everyone ! Kubota L3010. The lift arm gearbox is extremely difficult to operate. It's never been what I call smooth, and often had to hunt for the sweet spot to be able to make adjustments when leveling an implement. I've always kept it well greased, but recently it's become almost...

    tie rod dust seal

    When I bought my L3010, one of the tie rod end dust seals was torn, and I was trying to figure out how to deal with it. One weekend, I managed to bend that same tie rod on a pine stump hidden in vines. Figured the tie rod would have to come off to have hope of straightening it, so with my Son's...

    Markham toothbar

    Received the Markham toothbar for the L3010 today. Have not had time to install it yet, but I set it in the bucket to check for fit; looks close to perfect. After looking the thing over for a few minutes, I must say that I'm impressed with the quality of construction. It's very heavy, and...

    Ordered the Rollover

    Well, I did it. I ordered a Bushhog brand Rollover Box Blade today.(RO600) It's probably overkill for my needs, however, I watched one of these babies work behind a NH TC30 the other day, and it has to be the most versatile dirt moving tool I've ever seen. If I can handle it to 50% of it's...

    Anyone install TnT on an L3010? Mine is a GST, 4x4 with FEL. Would appreciate a few pictures showing hose connection points, and a parts source if anyone wouldn't mind. Thanks k

    Box Scraper  Cammond Box Blades

    Has anyone purchased or used the Cammond Box blades? Specifically the BS60R or the BS66R ? This box blade has the mechanical linkage to raise and lower the scarifying teeth, but I'm unsure how solidly built the blade is. Still trying to make a decision on this blade at $800 vs Bushhog...

    Tractor storage

    I recently purchased an L3010. Nice machine. Will only be using it rarely for another year- at least. After that I'll retire and will use it often, as in daily. It's currently stored in the garage with wife's car. she doesn't mind...really she doesn't. How often should I crank her up (the...

    What's the best box blade?

    I am shopping for a 5' box blade, and I want a good one. Are the rollover box blades worth $1400? Bushhog makes one, but I'm not sure if it brings that much additional performance to the table. A regular 5' bb runs in the $500 to $600 range. Cammond makes a bb with retractable teeth, but...

    L3400 quote

    I was recently quoted $12,275 for a L3400 DT 4x4 with Ag tires and $3400 for the LA463 loader. Total of $15,675 plus tax. I don't have a clue if this is even in the ballpark or not, but I thought I'd share it with anyone who might be shopping. This was at Henderson Implement near...

    JD 850 value?

    I own 1 tractor to many and the John Deere 850 has to go. My question is what is it's value before I put it on the market. It's 2 wd, has 930 hours, 90% rubber, barn kept so paint is still really good. All maintenance has been done and the tractor is in excellent shape. Just installed new...

    Oil & Fuel  Hyd oil change pan

    Was in Lowes today, and back in the masonry area, I found a black plastic pan measuring 2 feet by 3 feet by 8 inches deep. If my calculations are correct, this pan will hold almost 30 gallons, and is only 8" deep. For my 4x4 L3010 GST which holds 10.8 gallons of transmission oil, and half that...
