I sold a MF 1723eb and figured out I still need a tractor. My kioti 4210 should be here in a week or so. Probably a little overkill for my 3 acres [emoji23]

Maybe a better view

I used the backhoe to dig around the tree and then I pushed it over and filled in the hole

My new neighbors moved in a few weeks ago and I told them I’d clear their back yard for them. He was surprised what I could do with the 1723eb [emoji16]. Now the wife is on me to clear mine up And my backyard

I did my 50 hour oil/filter change with Amsoil and installed my Bro-Tek skid plate [emoji1303]

Did some hardscape. Moved some trees. Dug irrigation lines. Moved pallets of swisstrax flooring [emoji2]

Cleaning up around my property [emoji1303]. Managed to break the plastic hydraulic hose cover on the loader.

I thought it was a fuel filter since when I replaced it, the mower ran fine for another hour or so. Then it happened again. I replaced the fuel filter again and put new fuel in it. Same thing. Come to find out if I disconnect the fuel line and put it back it works again w/o changing the...

Mine has been on the last 8 hours running a PTO generator for the house. We have everything on except the AC. It is killing me to leave it out in the rain but it beats having no power ;)

Well today was/is the first time I've had to use my PTO generator. My question is how in the heck to secure it from theft or personal injury. I'm more worried about a neighborhood kid coming by and screwing with it and getting hurt more then anything. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

Found this rock and decided to bring it back home. Tractor didn't complain at all ;)

Quick question. Wife and kids want to get me some type of easy hitch or quick hitch and I'm not sure on which one to get. Here is a list of my attatchments for my Mahindra 2516. 42" Woods bushhog (trying to trade it for a 5' unit if anyone has one that is too big for them) 66" Woods...

I need a boxblade for my 2516. I'm thinking 5' as that would barely cover my tracks. I don't want to buy too small or too cheap of a blade. I made that mistake twice. I have a 42" Woods bushhog that it too small (great cutter though) and a cheapo 5' rear blade I bent running it behind my...

Not your typical FEL use but I had to purchase another safe today as I've run out of room in my others. I don't know how I get by w/o a FEL :) The loader handled the safe with ease!

I'm thinking about adding a hydro toplink and I do not have a rear remote at this time. Anyone use one on their Mahindra and how hard it is to install. I don't want to run a line from the loader...I want to tap into the hydro from the rear. I'm thinking once I get the rear remote I'll find...

Too bad my tractor is in the shop...... Guess I'll have to rely on the Subaru to get me out of the driveway. They are calling for 15-18 inches of the white stuff here....

Here in VA I have heard numbers over 12" might be hitting us. I just took of the bushhog and put my rear blade on. This is gonna be a lot of WORK (cough fun) lol.

I've just started to use the 2516 I bought and come to find out my diff lock doesn't actuate. I step on the diff lock pedal and it is still a one wheel wonder. Is there an adjustment for this? There is VERY little play in the pedal and if I move it with my hand it jiggles. Not a real...

I can't wait! I am purchasing from Wallace tractor and think I got a decent deal! I've already picked up a Woods 48" bush hog (used once) and I paid $700 for it :) I also found a 3 pt hitch areator for $200 so I think I'm on a roll. I'll post pics this weekend I hope!

I'm going to look at Mahindra as I hear a lot of good things about them. I have 4 acres and need something with 4wd and a loader. I don't *NEED* Hydro. I was first considering a Kubota or Deere in the 30hp range but that might be above my budget. Found a dealer with this deal.... 2009...

Hello all! I'd like to start out saying I've owned a Yanmar 1702d, Kubota BX22 and then a Kioti LK3054 before. For some odd reason I thought I was done with tractor ownership but the boss (wife) and myself have come to the conclusion that I probably need to buy another tractor. I currently...

I sold my old place and moved into a <GASP!> neighborhood. Now I have this 2004 Kioti 3054 loader with a 72" rear finish mower sitting here. I've already used it to prep the yard for seed and bushhogged between the pine trees. The mower is way too big to get into the tightspots. I'd like to...

LK3054 with 1430 loader won\'t hardly curl Subject says it all. It still has plenty of "chrome" on the cylinder showing and it won't curl. If I have the bucket all the way down and curled all the way up it is almost level to the ground. It may "roll back" a couple of degree's but if you hit...

Well my wifes uncle calls me over to show me the Bobcat 753 he rented for the weekend. I drove my tractor over 1/4 mile from the house and watched as he learned to manuver the Bobcat. He rented it to move some fallen logs from his property. He proceeds to go through a bottom that looked a...

Ok hit 51hrs (oops!) on the LK. What do I need now? Is there a NAPA filter or other oil filter that I can buy from an auto/truck part store that will fit? Oil choices?? Thanks!

Hey all I'm considering putting up a steel building. I'm not sure what size I'm looking for. I'd like to put my 03' Dodge 2500 and my Kioti 3054 tractor in there with room for attatchments etc. I also will need to have a slab poured. One 12 or 14' high door should be fine. I will do all...

Renting a 3pt hitch auger \"CENTRAL VA\" I'm not having any luck at all finding a 3 pt hitch auger for rent in the area. Does anyone know where I could rent one? Do you have one sitting around and live near Richmond? I'd be willing to rent it from you and pick it up/drop it off. Shoot me...

Recieved my 3054, FEL and 72\" finish mower !!! 6:47AM the phone rings and it is the man delivering the tractor from Carver Equipment! I run out and it is everything I expected and more. I've already finish mowed 4 or so acres and the Kioti finish mower leaves a wonderful cut! My wife even...

The topic pretty much asks the question. I saw one in person today and it didn't look too easy to take off. Coming from a Kubota BX22 where the FEL and BH are simple is the Kioti loader going to be a chore? Thanks! Chris

First Choice 72\" Rear finish mower I just ordered a new Kioti 3054 and I added a 72" first choice rear finish mower with it. Does anyone have one and how do you like/dislike it? Thanks!

I'm just wondering if the L3054 will work as well as a L3000DT. This will be my last tractor (i'm 25, so old ) so resale is not a concern for me. The price on the other hand is the concern. I'm looking at a L3054 with a Kioti loader and a 72" First choice finish mower. I have 11 acres with...

I was walking around my pond with my German Shep today and I though I stepped on a stick. To my surprise this snake was trying to come at me. Striking into mid-air about 2 ft from me. I went back one of the barns that had the closest gun and grabbed my Savage model 24 22lr/410 over under...

I went to my local Kubota dealer today where I bought my BX22. I got the dealer to give me a price on the following. 4wd 3130 DT ( do they make a 3130 DT or is it just the 3000 DT?) with R-1 tires, 513 FEL with the standard 60" bucket. He gave me a price of $15,900 w/o taxes etc.. I asked...

I was cleaning up some of my ATV trails and got the 'Bota stuck. My Jeep Cherokee with an open front diff but a lock rear woudln't budge it. I guess I need get rid of my BFG All Terrains and invest in some Mud Terrains . My brother in law came over with his Dodge 1500 and some 10" of lift...

Ok ... I went to connect the backhoe to my Kubota BX22 since there is no snow in the forcast and have no need for the rear blade. I go and backup to the hoe and shut off the tractor. I try to connect the lines from the hoe to the tractor and tractor to the hoe and they won't connect. I...

I tried the classifieds thing but no one could come up with any money so I figured I'd try the Ebay route. Hopefully it will sell there! http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1924560264&ssPageName=ADME:B:LC:US:1

I had to put the BX22 in the picture too!

Hello I've been posting on TBN for a while now and I just noticed another orange tractor brand! I'm trying to sell my Kubota BX22 because I'm purchasing more property in the near future. Now that I have read about the Kioti's I'm going to try to find a dealer around my part of VA. I'll be...

Hello everyone. Well the subject says it all. I'm considering selling my BX22 and I was wondering what would be a fair price to ask for it. It has 78 hours on it and most of that time has been cutting grass with the 60" MMM. I also have a 48" Howse bushhog and a 5' light duty rear blade that...

I have on for my BX22. I planned on putting a ball on it so I could pull my 6'x10' utility trailer but the drawbar turns when I try to pull a load. What else can I use it for :)

I had to add a sport ATV to my collection. Pic should be attatched :)

Sons 3rd birthday party pinatta :) (they used a plastic bat)

Use #445 for a backhoe :) It was my sons birthday party yesterday and the theme was "bob the builder" . The kids used a plastic bat so they didnt' tear up my tractor !

Well to make a long story short. I had my blades replaced and my spindles checked because I ran over a tow truck chain with the MMM and tore up the blades. The dealer installed 3 new blades and checked the spindles. I took it out to mow for the first time and one of the blades ended up...

I went over to my neighbors farm today and he asked me a question and I told him I'd have to ask it over here :) He has a Ford 5000 and it has a little over 9000 hours on it. He is wondering how many miles that would be equivlent too. Any estimates would be great :) Oh one thing about the...

So I went to my dealer today to iniquire about renting a L48. He said he could rent me one for $175 a day including delivery and pickup. Does that sound reasonable? I'll be using the L48 for taking out some small islands that are in my "so called" pond. It is so dry right now I can drive...

I can't believe it. I was cutting the grass yesterday morning when all of the sudden I heard CLANG BANG BOOM!!! The tractor shut off and I got off to inspect. I found that I had finally found the tow truck chain I'd lost while pulling a friend out of a mudhole with my Jeep. I was using the...

Some of my neighbors aren't as well off as me and my wife. Figuring the median income in my area is $16,900 I think most of you can understand what I'm talking about. After talking to many a neighbor they said they wish they had a way to communicate via email and browse the web for gardening...

I found out why I don\'t have any fresh eggs.. This thing was in the process of eating them as I went in one night. I know there is more then one around. I was lucky it wasn't one of the P'd off copperheads I've seen around! Pic attatched...

I'm not sure what to do. My pond is quite low. I moved here last June and it has never really been full but we haven't had that much rain either. Its only sourch of water is run-off and hopefully I'll add some since I put drain pipes in from my downspouts and ran them to the pond. I'll...

Here are some pictures of the completed drain from my downspouts to the pond. Hopefully it should help fill it up.

I was bushhogging a field the yesterday and didn't bother to take off the MMM. Can anyone with a BX22 and 60" MMM tell me how close the rear of the MMM is to the rear wheels when raised up? Mine looks really close. It maybe has an 1 1/2" before the rear tire would hit the MMM. While...

Does any one have one on the BX22? I'm interested in getting one to keep the sun off me and to mount some type of radio underneath of it. It sure does get old riding around for hours on end without any toons :) Pics would be great if you have any!

test shot!

How many other people would like to see a forum on TBN devoted to farming/gardening? I'd be interested and be willing to help get it started if any is needed.

When I leave the tractor for a while. (parked for a week or so) and I come back. My BH is resting on the ground and the stabilizers are down a tad. Is it normal for them to drop a when parked? Thanks for the help.

Just posting some pictures. Not that great of quality :)

This is what I caught right before I came inside. Sorry for the poor quality. I took a still of it off my camcorder :)

The Yanmar that was traded in.

Put the ol' Yanmar on the trailer (10x6) and brought home the BX22. What a tight squeeze! They would have delievered it but I wanted to see if it would fit on a 10'x 6' trailer and it did! I had to raise the FEL and move the backhoe to the side and it left me just enough room to be...

A co-worker and a friend was involved in a tractor accident. He was using an auger to dig three holes for a gate. He got off the tractor to put pressure on the auger and his long sleeve shirt got caught up in the auger. The next thing he remembers was that he was on the ground trying to stand...

Just left Dinwiddie Tractor and left my deposit for a BX22. The dealer said it should be here at the end of the week or into next week. $16,500 plus $500 in tax got me the following. BX22 with FEL and BH, Kubota 60" MMM. He even gave me $4200 trade in on my grey market Yanmar 1702d with no...

I'm wondering what I can expect on trade in for a Yanmar 1702d. It has just over 700 hours, 4wd, 3 cyl diesel and is in great shape! Thanks!

Ok went on down to the local Kubota dealer and told him what I wanted. BX22 with FEL, 10"BH, 60" MMM. We came up with a price of $16,500. He also wants me to bring in my Yanmar 1702D 4wd diesel for a possible trade in. Anything sound wrong here? $16,500 a fair price for both of us? Thanks!

Now I'm in the mood to lay down some cash. Right now I have a Yanmar 1702D 4wd (forsale) and I was looking to add a FEL and BH. Then I saw all this talk of a BX22. I was thinking I needed more power then 22 hp but I think it should do. I plan on doing the following with the BX: Cutting...

I'm looking to move up a little bit from my Yanmar 1702. I was looking at a JD 4310, Kubuota?, and a NH 33 I believe. The question is do I need 4wd? I've got in on my Yanmar and I've only used it once when moving some snow around. If I ever feel like I need more traction I just press the...
