    Need a new log spliiter... thinking 37 Ton NorthStar?

    I need to upgrade from my 3pt log splitter. I've been doing my DD and found the NorthStar line to be robust and made from quality components. The price of $1799.00 is really appealing and I doubt I could build it for much less. I won't have to pay for shipping, because I'll make the drive to...

    Solar panel success stories in Wisconsin?

    I live south of Madison. I'm just wondering if the technology has progressed to point where it be worth the effort..... notice I didn't say cost. Electrical rates just keep going up and I would consider doing it if I could generate 20 - 60 percent of my needs for the majority of the year. It...

    Kubota V1305-E engine first start after 2+ years.

    Hey guys - I'm happy B7800 owner here. Came across this engine that has been sitting for more than 2 years. After I change all filters and fluids, I want to make sure the injection pump isn't fouled with sludge from sitting. I'm hoping someone knows of a way to bleed and inspect it prior to...

    Tweaking Kubota engines for more power...?

    In the diesel auto and truck world, it's pretty common to increase HP and overall performance by reprogramming the ECU and/or installing larger injectors. I'm curious if anyone on this site has done this or is looking into doing it. My B7800 could use a few more HP at the PTO. I would...

    New to Kubota (B7800), but not new to TBN... seeking input.

    Hello, I just purchased a slightly used (159 hours) B7800 with 402 FEL and finish mower. Back in 2000 I purchased a TC45D with FEL and BB, which I sold 3 years later. I was pretty active on the TBN site from 1999 - 2003, but not much after I sold my tractor. FYI - the TC45D was a great...
