    Farmers: What is the legal structure of your farm?

    We put all our property into a trust for our grandchildren. We are the trustees and when we depart our children will be trustees.

    To till or not to till 😁

    I agree. Tilling would help. Many plants thrive in sandy soil, especially with organic matter added.

    Industrial or Ag tires. Smoothest?

    Thanks. I have lowered the pressure in the past and popped a bead. Real PITA!

    First time plowing with SSQA plow, float mode just digs into the driveway

    The first time I saw one of those plow attachments my thought was what an easy way to twist a loader frame! Extended that far out is a huge amount of leverage on the loader frame. I can easily imagine using it at a right or left angle would make the tractor extremely difficult to control from...

    Industrial or Ag tires. Smoothest?

    I love my Kubota but those ag tires seem really hard riding and slow my speed across the field. My previous tractor had ag tires and seemed to ride across the field much smoother. Have you had the same experience? Has anyone switched tires on the same tractor and noticed a big difference? I...

    Bush Hog repair question

    Take it off, clean it up and weld it if you can weld well. You might even want to reinforce it a bit. Bushhogs seldom are well-balanced after they have run for a few years. A little extra weight that close to the center would not be a problem. If you want to balance the part you could weld a...

    What could have caused this ???

    I grew up in Arizona and there was what was called HEAT lightning. Other than that, could a large drone have impacted the house?

    What to do with a short PTO

    If you can find one half that is longer you may end up with one that is long enough and much cheaper. You only need enough length to ensure it stays together when fully extended, but if that is the position in which power is applied make sure there are several inches of overlap. Put one half...

    Which machine would you use?

    In the amount of time it would take to pick up and return the trencher and dig the trenches (not counting the time to earn the money to pay the rental) you can dig a trench with a sharpshooter shovel.

    To upgrade or not

    Only if it is a free newspaper! You do not want to fund fake news.

    Gov't mandates gas can flame arrestors.

    This is a perfect example of government stepping into areas it has no business! While they try to micromanage our lives they are neglecting the two primary functions of our federal government, protecting lives and protecting property.

    Kubota regened again today

    I do a lot of work grading, carrying hay, and things that do not require much RPM. Then, there is hay time and bushogging which require high RPMs. I have seen no difference in how often it regens. These engines inject a very lean mixture to begin with, and the RPMs does not change the...

    Submersible well pump went out, thoughts?

    I would only buy an American-made pump if you can find one. That is too much labor to do it again because of a cheap pump. AND! Check the pipe from the pump when you pull it. Many installers use PVC and it has been known to crack due to the torque of the pump. If cracked, it could be leaking...

    Metal Thickness?

    I use a chisel plow with a simple adapter and a cable pulling grip to pull pex through the pasture to water my cows here in Tennessee. Goes 6-8" deep and has never frozen.

    Direct sump return line on Kubota L6060

    It will get pressure from the rear remote. Laneshark says the return must be direct to protect the tractor pump. That plug with the 10 mm goes direct but appears to be a very odd size.

    Direct sump return line on Kubota L6060

    I am connecting a Lane Shark FEL brush cutter. They show a plug with a 10mm hex socket on top of the transmission, but other people have said it is on the side.

    Direct sump return line on Kubota L6060

    Where do I connect a direct return to the sump on my L6060? The dealer will not give out that info.

    Plumbing loader disrupts 3pt lift.

    My Tafe 5040 is similar to many Massey models. It has three "tapping points" to use the 3pt lift hydraulics for other uses. For years I connected my loader to the auxiliary connections with quick connects. But I wanted to free up the aux connections for other things so I connected the loader...
