I use the box blade a lot more than I use the rear blade and use tilt on that quite a bit. I got the T&T for the top more than the tilt, but it came as a package.

That's my plan as well for now as well. I also throw the turnbuckle on when using my rear blade as it takes up all of the rear hydraulics and has its own tilt.

I'm a sucker, give me my heated seats and hydraulic everything :p

I'm jealous, ATV is top on my list of things I don't have but could really use. Would help to not have to squeeze the full size through the woods and loading up the tractor or swapping implements over to "carry" implements is a real chore.

I knew you were on here Elon!

Value is not always measured in number of hours.

LOL I think I'd probably end up doing more damage than good :LOL:

Heck if my tractor could run a dang chainsaw it'd have a lot more hours on it

I've got a few old dishes lying around I can send your way as memorabilia if you like :p

Viasat and Hughesnet can go to hell. Put your name in for Starlink, it's been a life saver out in very rural Olympic Peninsula!

What do you folks with brush hogs do for blade maintenance with stuff like this? Do you just let them ride or do you rework them when you're hitting stuff like this?

You guys are really making me feel better about my mowing experiences. What's a few basketball size rocks and logging cable compared to telephone boxes and manhole covers :p

If only! :LOL:

Sometimes I wonder about myself

Gone back to sand

Did you get a new side link that has a DPOV on it or did you get a DPOV separately and mount it somehow?

Winner right here...

Was going to ask if you sharpen them ever, but then did the double take :love:

Sometimes I feel like what I'm mowing is more rock than grass...

Of course! Quite a nice setup for the situation.

Yesterday after a day of mowing some pretty gnarly trails with the brush hog, I noticed a spot on the way home that I had missed. No problem, popped the PTO on and backed into it. I immediately caught something so big it stopped the tractor dead. Thankfully I had just slipped my clutch the day...

Adding manual valves I have to actuate from outside almost makes me want to throw my turn buckle tilt link back on and call it a day. Something I'll have to contemplate if it's worth it.

That's an easy one. You just throw it inline on all the rear remote hoses?

Wow good to know. I was having trouble finding anything exactly relevant so thanks for the info. Really appreciate the nice "upgrade" as a Grand L owner :D I freakin' love all my Kubota products, but I definitely won't defend poor design or implementation decisions! I guess it's on to the...

Alder thinning season...

Very interesting, thanks. So basically, the standard rear remote valves Kubota uses just don't hold up to the weight and pressures of 3 pt implement use...

Thanks for the info, will definitely check these out.

Would love to check this. Where can I find this to check? :)

Results: With everything disconnected from the tractor, there was no movement on either the top or tilt cylinder over the course of an hour. Hooked up to the tractor: Top moved from 7.5" to 8" exposed (.5") Tilt moved from 4.25" to 4.5" exposed (.25") I saw a lot more dramatic movement on...

I had that realization, so unfortunately not for me!

That sounds pretty slick, unfortunately the lines plumb directly into the cylinders.

As usual, Brian to the rescue. I'm on it and will report back! Based on the four options at the end, is the implication that some control valves just leak beyond expectation and we have to work around it?

Hey folks, I've got a Kubota L6060 with only about 50 hours on it, and finding that my tilt cylinder is leaking down during use such that I need to adjust my tilt cylinder every 5-10 minutes. I realize it's a relatively small cylinder holding some beefy weight, so I'm wondering if this is...

This is excellent, thanks for posting the full list. Can you confirm this is the most up to date? I have 14.9-26 r1 and my B setting was 1919 which isn't even in the list.

That was my worry. I'll fiddle with the hoses to see if there's any issue there. When you say "top of stack with a flow control just under it", can you clarify what you mean by that?

I'll definitely give both of those a try, thanks.

Hey all, I just took delivery on a shiny new L6060 (woo!). While most of my implements are back ordered into oblivion, I at least got my hydraulic rear blade to play with. When I started using it I noticed something really funky with my rear remotes. I'm hoping someone could give some feedback...

Well thanks everyone, I finally got the whole order in for everything. Looking forward to the community!

Thanks, given how my woods are I am already looking forward to my first puncture with RimGuard. We'll see how it goes...

I'll just sit quietly over here in minor jealousy

Exactly my takeaway. The more debate threads I read the more questions I had. Seems like everyone has had good or bad success with each, in incredibly varied tractors and incredibly varied environments/climates. Appreciate your input for sure.

Good to hear. I am more confident knowing the R1s are same ply as the R4s for this tractor as well.

I was about to just go with R4 to make things simple but had that feeling I'd be more like swapping out to R1 eventually based on the feedback.

Ended up putting the order in yesterday with the 14.9-26 R1s, Kubota L6060.

I think I am going to go with the R1s for my needs. I'm wondering if you all have any input on getting a 13.6x28 vs 14.9x26 R1. I would think the wider tire may be a better option in general, but would love your thoughts. Oddly enough, the 14.9-26 actually allows for less total width of the...

Thanks I'm definitely interested in feedback from other PNW folks. I'm just below the snow line and with things warming it snows less and less at lower elevations here so worst case in winter there would be a few days a year with some on the ground. It seems like people are definitely back and...

Tell me about it! I feel like you have to have 20+ years experience before making the decision on your first tractor! :D I was looking at the bigger sized machines but I am hesitant to go that big with how tight things can be on the property. I am moving in and will be building there and...

I am definitely getting the HD bucket, but that thing looks insanely cool.

Black definitely makes it look cool and aggressive but I could see it looking great with the WWII fighter plane face too :D

Don't I know it. I have about half a dozen pieces of equipment or tools on order, nobody is quite sure when if ever anything will become available. I'm just going ahead with a custom order for the tractor since they don't have anything coming in that's not already sold, so I can choose which...

Very good info, thanks so much. It looks like both R1 and R4 for the Grand L are 6 ply. I did have concerns that an R1 would limit FEL capacity but it sounds like with the higher ply this may not be the case? I am expecting that I'll be splitting time pretty evenly between forest trail and...

Thanks so much for the info. Beautiful set you have there, that looks like about exactly what I am planning to run on my tractor majority of the time. I like the looks of your grill guard especially. My original thoughts were to lean toward the R1 like you, but of course the dealer questioned...

Hi there folks, I'm in the process of purchasing my very first tractor and the only decision left to make is which tires will best fit my needs. I've read about a million threads on R1 vs R4 and it's obviously very situation-dependent, so I'm hoping you can help give me some insight for mine...
