    What is the value of 3 range HST vs. 2 range?

    I own an l3901 Kubota I very seldom ever used third gear and only then to use as a transport option. My advice on the tractors would be to consider a 3901 particularly if you're ever going to low hi grass on grades. The extra horses are convenient and I have absolutely no problem with the...

    Warnings on new Kubota

    My L3901 has the regen capability and has caused me no problems at all. If I work the tractor harder it seems to regen less. If I am lazing around (under 2000 rpm) it will regen more often. My dealer told me to "beat the hell out of it and it will live forever". So far no problems after 3 3 !/2...

    MF 1835M loader support collapsed on tractor

    Not sure about Deere, Kubota or land Pride make Kubota loaders. Alot has been said here and some very good advice as well. If the tractor/ loader was mine it would already be at the dealership to get to the bottom of proper repairs.

    Which AMSOIL hydraulic oil should I use?

    I use amsoil for everything but the hydraulic fluid. As others have stated the Kubota hydraulic system is very sensitive to oils. I would prefer to use the amsoil but, Kubota has a specific oil and I'll stay with that.

    Kubota TG 1860 G quits after about 30 min.

    After a trip to the local repair center a new aftermarket carb was installed. My little tractor is running better than new now. The bill was a little over $300.00 but still way less than $$ for a new one. A new Kubota carb was over $900.00, so I feel very fortunate my little unit runs actually...

    Kubota TG 1860 G quits after about 30 min.

    I have had the exact same problem for years. My T 1870 is now dead. I wonder if there could be an electrical issue? When it runs it runs great, My machine is 17 yrs old and I would really rather keep it than search for new. I've had the carb apart several times but so far the patient is dead.

    Pressure washer with suction?

    Volume is key to pressure washing anything. 1000 psi is plenty with a 5 gallon per minute pump. I used one for years.

    This has to be a record !!!

    I purchased a commercial Speed Queen washer. It has everything but the coin box. Same as those found in laundry mats. I can repair it myself if need be and parts should be available just about forever. Cost me a little less than a grand.

    L4740 stalled this afternoon

    Northern Tool sells a metal offset funnel with a filter screen mounted in the funnel neck. I think I paid like $20.00 or so. Check them out online and see for yourself. I like mine!

    Engine Oil change away from KUbota brand?

    I use 15w40 HD Marine Amsoil in my tractor. I'm in Fl and we have plenty of condensation in crankcases down here. I may use my tractor nfor several days and then it will sit, sometimes for weeks. That oil is good at preventing rust in the crank case and preventing wear caused by moisture.

    5 Eleven DesignZ, LLC

    I just purchased this for my 3901. Check it out for yourself. A little pricey but cheaper than a new radiator. Will most likely install in 30 min or so, good news for my old tired body.

    L3901 vs. MX4800 Advice Please

    My L3901 was delivered 2 days after Christmas last year. I went with that instead of the L2601 because of PTO HP. I would have liked a little larger tractor but $$$ was an issue. I also needed a FEL, BB. grapple and brush hog as well as a 24' bob tail trailer. Add to that chains, tool boxes...

    I had a pair of those pliers in my tool box for years and never used them. Had a job the other day with the same snap ring. I fought with it for several minutes before remembering that tool. took me about 10 seconds after remembering that set of pliers to get my job done. I don't ever remember...

    Wheel removal on T-1870 Kubota

    Thank You HTWT! I took a look on youtube and diagnosed the problem. Rusted on. My tire is still serviceable for the time being. Every now and then I'll spray some liquid penetrant on both sides of the wheel and hope for the best!

    Wheel removal on T-1870 Kubota

    I tried yesterday to pull the front wheel off my Garden tractor. All seems well lubricated with no obvious sign of any rust. I beat on the backside of the wheel and also cussed at it for about an hour. Used penetrating oil ect. So far no sign of any movement at all. I'm sure I can operate the...

    New owner L3901, Mods to make it mine

    True. I usually have the box blade or brush hag attached so most times I'm fine. That 3901 does feel a little light at times even with the extra weight.

    New owner L3901, Mods to make it mine

    The grapple is a very useful tool but comes with a very steep learning curve. As far as I know the only way to learn is to use it and get acquainted with your new equipment. Are you using the Kubota hyd for your grapple or the Land Pride? The Land Pride (I'm told) is the better system. It is...

    New owner L3901, Mods to make it mine

    Great work on your new tractor. I also bought a 3901 just before Christmas last year. One of the attachments I bought was also a grapple. You will need to modify the levers on the quick connect to keep branches from unlocking the levers on the quick connect. I have destroyed two of the quick...
