Hi- I am looking to buy a backhoe for my Kubota L3830HST and was thinking of getting the BH77. My dealer wasn稚 able to find a listing for a subframe to fit my tractor because of the age of the unit. According to kubota痴 website they list a subframe that will fit and take the larger BH92. If...

I had a 8 x 16 foot wood garden shed out behind my house next to a big butternut tree. My wife came home and found the shed fully engulfed in flames. A thunderstorm had just come thru the area and had a lot of lightening in it. The tree had bark blasted off it about 2/3 the way up. We think it...

View of my barn in winter and summer.

Have any TBN members from Texas or oklahoma been having problems with the flooding? I have seen the videos on the news and it really does look like flooding of "biblical proportions". Hope everyone is safe and not having serios problems. Mike

I normally put my bushhog on the back of my L3830 Kubota to use as ballast whem I am doing loader work. It weighs in around 500lbs. I have seen folks on TBN building concerete 3pt ballasts weighing in well over 1000lbs. It seems to me that there must be a point where the ballast works against...

I am looking at a barely use Woods PHD 35 pto three point post hole digger with an auger and stand. It has only been used several times and looks pretty good. They want $1000 for it. Does anyone have any experience with this PHD? Seems fairly heavy duty. I think it has a 9" auger. Any input...

I was cleaning up my pull behind manure spreader and found this when I opened up the side that houses the gear box. 5 mice total and packed with nesting material. I reversed the hose on my shop vac and blew them all out into the cold!

My 18 month old chesapeake got a hold of a single edge razor blade that my wife uses to scrape the glass top of the stove off with. She was cleaning up the kitchen and heard a crunching noise and found the dog chomping on the blade. A 1/2" by 1/2" piece of the blade was missing. The dog didn't...

I am interested in getting a 3 pt log splitter to run off of my tractor. Can you run a hydraulic line from one of the FEL hydraulic outputs or do I need a seperate rear remote. I currently do not have any rear remotes. If I need a rear remote is there a special type?

This is a small burn pile compared to yours. I know what you mean about being uncomfortable when it starts to really burn. You don't feel,like you have control of it.

I attached the bracket to the edge of the sheet metal with the extinguisher resting on the platform.

Crap! I only have one.

Savannah Our chesapeake bay retriever And our horse "whoa ******!"

A couple of photos of last week's snowfall at our farm I'm southeastern PA. It was our chesapeake bay retriever' s first snow.

My 7 year old L3830HT has a problem with reading incorrectly the amount of remaining fuel in the tank. It reads 2-3 bars below the amount that is actually there. The gauge has 8 bars when full normally. I filled it up yesterday and t only shows 5. I went to Kubota's schematic drawings thinking...

Congratulations on your two beautiful pups. We just got a new addition to our family this week also! Savannah is a 10 week old chesapeake bay retriever female. We ha,3 had Chessies in the past and love the breed. enjoy !

Here is my 855D with its plow

L3830 HST 560 hrs and counting!

Has anybody had any experience with DR's new PTO driven string trimmer for fence lines? We have a factory store near us in Delaware but they didn't have any in stock and weren't getting any for 4 to 6 weeks. The guy said I was like the 5th or sixth person that came in asking about it.

Finally got around to installing fire extinguishers on my vehicles L3830 kubota Gator xuv 855D

Here is my 855D XUV gator

I just finished installing a remote gate control for my three point spreader. I got it from John deere. It replaces the manual lever on the spreader and attaches to the remote control lever on the tractor with a cable. It works really well. I got tired of leaning over backward to reach the lever...

My neighbor saw this guy in our back horse pasture last week. I have heard they have been showing up in southeast Pennsylvania but this is my first experience with a coyote. We have a lot of foxes and occasional bobcat. Mike

I have an 855D XUV Gator that I had to have fixed last year for a "frozen" transmission. I could not shift it. They replaced part of the clutch mechanism. It seemed to work better and shift smoother, but yesterday when it was pointed downhill and in low gear I was unable to shift it back into...

Hi- I am getting ready to do a 500 hr oil and filter change on my L3830 Kubota. Kubota recommends using 10w30, 10w40 or SAE30 oil - all are okay with temperature ranges I live in. Lows of 10Fin winter and highs of 95-100F in summer. Is there any rhyme or reason as to what to use? I would...

I noticed that when I fill the tractor from a 5 gallon diesel can there is fine flecks of brown material on the funnel filter screen. The diesel has powerservice white bottle additive in it and sometimes is probably 1-2 months old. Is this algae? I am going to try to reduce the time the fuel...

Just got off the phone with the John Deere mechanic. My 855D XUV froze up on the weekend while I was moving multiple loads of old hay to a compost pile. I was going in and out of gear driving to and then backing up to the pile. I was in four wheel drive in high gear and it froze in reverse and...

Holy cow! I just changed the oil and filter on my 855D and could not believe how difficult it is to get to the oil filter. It is behind the engine jammed in between it and the transmission and requires you to be a contortionist to get to it. Unfortunately the fuel filter is right next to it...

Hi guys- I looked at a 2010 855d gator yesterday that I am planning on buying. The only thing I was wondering about was that when you first depress the "gas" pedal the diesel starts to increase its rpm before there is any forward movement. It runs really well and I like it alot but wondered...

Hey guys- I am going to cut down a dead pear tree which will have about an 8" diameter stump at the base and I want to burn it out. How do I go about doing that? Diesel? Should I wait awhile for it to dry out or can I burn it after I cut down the tree? Thanks in advance for the info. Mike

Guys- A little bit off topic for this category, but I need help. I have an Ariens 622ST walk behind string trimmer which was working fine until I ran out of gas. Now she will start but only runs for 10-20 seconds than cuts out. I thought there might be dirt in fuel line, but the screen in...

I was wondering how well the tire plug kits work on large rear fluid filled tractor tires? I have a Kubota L3830 and have put slime in the front tires which have handled a small puncture. Do the plugs they sell really seal up small leaks? Thanks - any coments from those who have used them would...

I was looking on line at rotary tillers - was looking to get a 48-50" tiller with offset capability to run with my L3830 Kubota (PTO=30.5hp) and I was surprised to see that they have both recommended minimum and maximum hp ratings. I assume the upper end number is related to the gearbox? Would...

I recently "built" a JD850D XUV on the JD web site and requested an online quote from the local JD dealer in pennsylvania. I never heard aything back from them. The next day I got a follow-up e-mail from Deere asking if I got a reply. When I told them no they sent a reminder to the dealer to...

I am looking to purchase a diesel utility vehicle for use on my horse farm. It is 36 acres and I need it primarily for doing things like moving manure, hay bales, dirt, firewood, etc. I have been reading all of the past posts and am thinging about a RTV900 vs JD XUV Diesel. I was leaning...

Slightly out of the ordinary attachment question- Does anyone have any experience with a Riata ranch II arena drag? It is a pull behind arena drag with vertical spikes and a metal "comb"-like attachment that levels and grooms a horse arena. It attaches to a 2" ball attached to the tractor's...

I took of my FEL on my L3830 so that I could mow around my fences easier with my 5ft brush cutter. Added 4 55lb suitcase weights to front bumper for stability which worked out real well. When I went to put the FEL back on I couldn't get it to seat properly until I removed the weights. Seems...

This is a real basic question, but I don't have any prior experience with a grease gun. I am getting ready to lubricate my FEL on my new Kubota L3830HST after the first 10 hours of use. After you hook up the gun to the grease fittings how do you know when you have injected enough grease into...

I am in the process of buying a Kubota L3830 and wanted to get a blade for snow removal. We have a dirt and gravel lane which is about 1/4 mile long. In southern chester county PA we get usually about 30 - 40 inches of snow a season with occasional storms dumping up to 10" I was thinking of...

We just purchased a 36 acre horse farm (13-14 acres of pasture) in Landenberg, PA and I plan on buying a tractor for mowing the fields, etc. I am looking at a Kubota L3830 with FEL and rotary cutter. I know the GST model gives you more PTO horsepower - any other differences compared to HST...
