Here are my thoughts Landscape rake York - York Rakes, Dethatchers & Landscape Equipment | York Modern Corp. they make the best rakes with the most options. Woods Landpride Good blades are made by; Rhino / Bush Hog Woods Landpride There are lots of great equipment manufactures out there...

I started mowing on a zero turn when I was 7 but only the flat sections. I was threatened with corporal punishment if I went anywhere near the hills. My father has informed me (now that I am older) that the lawn looked like $#!* when I was done. When I was 11 or so I started mowing the hills...

That tube is pretty rusty. I agree that your best choice is to remove or repair. Flailmaster offers a replacement roller. Not sure what the cost would be.

The roller is not needed but it makes it darned hard to scalp with. I would set it an inch or two higher than the wheels. How rusted is it? A few photos would be nice. An Alamo flail is not a bush hog replacement. They cannot handle thick woody brush very well. The photo you posted does not...

What are you trying to protect yourself from? Also what tractor are you mounting it on? Aluminum will most likely have more deformation than a steel plate. If memory serves right its SAE J231 that regulates FOPS. Here are some photos of a FOPS test for a Hough H60 by Sims cab company in...

Yep the darned parts book listed it in the 1110 manual with a note that it fit the 1210. Typical Ford parts books, you have to read close or they will get you.

The part number for the head is SBA111016622. This supersedes 83941096, 83943160, SBA111016610, SBA111016611, SBA111016620, SBA111016621. It is listed as fitting the 1110, 1120, 1210, 1215, 1220, and 1310. For looking up the parts for a CNH item I use the OEM parts books at mycnhstore.com...

Camera's are a great idea, but have many pitfalls too. They require a more complex installation with bringing wires in from outside the cab, they are one more thing to troubleshoot when they act up, and the camera is often outside and gets dirty making it hard to see when its facing into the...

If the tractor is in 4wd and you have the front in the air then turning one tire should turn the other tire the opposite direction. This indicates that your issue is in the front axle or the coupler between the driveshaft and the axle. 1.) Turn the tire slowly and see if there is any noise...

Interesting. What is the background on the unit? I am guessing it was modified by a 3rd party. Any more photos of it?

I would encourage you to use the search function to explore this topic. It has been well covered here with several dozen threads. I made one for my tractor, but it does not differ much from what others have shown in their threads. Here are the first 5 search results I found...

The quality of your work is top notch. I really enjoy the detail you put into your projects and never settling for less than perfection. Your ability to re utilize stuff and making it look like factory is awesome. Keep the pictures and updates coming.

When you consider that ASAP purchases a decent % of its parts from A&I a distributor, and every JD dealer is a dealer for A&I (A&I is owned by JD), along with most other ag dealers. I would guess the three big distributors A&I has 10,000 dealers in the US, with SMA around 8,000, and Atlantic...

They did make some changes to the most recent website I thought was interesting. On the meet the Team they removed the group photo, as well as Rick and Peanuts Bio's comparing the June 5th 2023 version to now. https://www.(Temporarily blocked due to reports of company closure)/Meet-the-Everything-Attachments-Team-s/3496.htm...

Parts ASAP started as All States Ag Parts (ASAP). It was founded by David Dyke who had originally owned Worthington Ag Parts a salvage yard. He sold Worthington and as soon as his non compete was up he bought Downing Tractor Parts in WI. They then started buying other salvage yards. It was a...

I use the 9" most for 4' posts as it allows me to use a tamping bar around it when back filling dirt. For corner posts I use a 12" as they are larger in diameter. I only backfill with dirt as I have had bad luck with concrete. I have 6", 9", 12", and 18" augers.

This is a rough read. I feel bad for Fbitz. Simple mistake and did not realize that there was no rider for the tractor on home owners insurance. I am amazed that KTAC did not catch that. I have had more than my share of fire issues for my age. Had a Kubota RTV900 burn up in college while...

I cannot remember where the plate you remove is on the tractor. I think it is on the right side in front of the axle near where the 3pt control shaft goes into the rear. You remove a cover plate then sandwich this plate between the cover plate and the tractor. To do so you need longer bolts...

The steering on the tractor is like what is on the 165's. I remember talking to a guy and he said that the linkage was key to setup and it was not 100% intuitive. This is a quote from another forum (If I violate any rules please delete link)...

I have had good luck with completely redoing fields to smooth them out. I started with a moldboard plow, then disked it twice, ran a grain drill over it, then rolled it all in. Makes for a nice smooth field. Had one field that the ground hogs had just destroyed, it was painful spreading...

There is no joystick conversion for the 4500 / 755. You would have to fabricate your own or figure out how to adapt something from a 555 hoe. I would get a set of 1/2" crowfoot wrenches for the working on hydraulic lines. They make it much easier to access what you need. Angle wrenches are...

Good point. I never thought of using the clutch button that way. Other machines have a neutral on the reverser lever that could be used that way.

Hydrostats are easier to learn and for folks who are new to the equipment operating world they make the learning curve much shorter and shallower. Most of the folks here are not use to operating heavy equipment so the quick learning is a major benefit. Remember the average compact tractor only...

If your knees are bad I think you would want a powershift, or IVT (aka CVT) transmission if your wanting direct drive. A power shuttle still requires clutching between gears, it just does not require clutching to change direction. *For kubota they offer a GST (power shift) in the L4060...

This depends on the rotation of the flail. With a reverse rotation flail the mower will do some mulching. However with a forward rotation flail there is little to no mulching. My Alamo SHD88 can be configured either way, but it like most Alamo SHD course cuts are forward rotation. This picks...

A harley rake was designed for just what the Braccet wants to do. It will level / remove clumps and prep the soil for seeding. Renting one would be my first choice. If not then I would use a tiller and turn it into a powder then water and roll it back smooth.

On my Massey 20C I have to set my head on the window to see the edge of the quick attach. On the Kubota M105 I ran you could see the quick attach if you leaned way over. On a 3301 you should be able to see the top edge of the quick attach if you lean side to side. Here are the steps I follow...

The question depends on what your mowing and what type of flail you have. 1-5" thick saplings (is it still a sapling at 5" in diameter?) is Heavy Duty brush hog material. Unless you go with a forestry flail with large hammers. I have an Alamo SHD88 with the course cut knives. I can mow...

With a power shuttle there is no need to clutch as the tractor does it for you. However the power shuttle is harder on the clutch packs than using the foot clutch to feather the clutch in and out. Its not that you need to clutch, it just reduces wear on equipment. The key with using the power...

The New Holland TV145 when tested on test 1886 at UNL Nebraska weighed 14,715 lbs, according to CNH the max weight is 22,000. I would suspect that the tractor weigh's somewhere around 16,000 lbs. It is 77.4-97.4" wide, with the tires turned out it will be wide. With the cage on it it will be a...

I remember the first time I had to back a wagon up. It was a gravity feed wagon which have a short wheelbase and the ground was ice covered. Probably took me 30 minutes to get it just inside a barn door. I have gotten pretty good at it now. The key is to go slow and counter steer as soon as...

Another option would be to use a hydraulic rotary actuator. They are made to have much more torque than motors and provide a controllable rotation. Most do not have 360 degree rotation. To get the torque you need you would most likely need a double rack unit.

It depends on how far it is on how far a long reach would work. An Cat 317 has a reach of 29.5 ft. A long reach will have a 50' or longer boom. C. Norris Manfacturing | Canton, OH | Commercial & Industrial Equipment Supplier is an example of a manufacture of long reach with products 50-100'...

I have done both. But they were on longer trips behind a truck. With a tire we would just go get a spare, bearing required a trip to the parts store and a roadside repair. But in both cases it was dragging back auction junk 45+ miles. If you check the equipment out, air up the tires, and...

The Kubota M5660 has a 540E PTO as an option taking the operating engine RPM's down from 2500 to 1850 (I think). The M5660 speed at 2500 RPM is 1.6 mph so with 540E it would be 1.2 mph. The M5660 has 10.6 GPM flow on the hydraulics. If it is a 2500 PSI system then you have 15.4 hp of pto...

To change the spader to run on 1000 rpm will require some changes to the spader. You will need to change gears/belts/sprockets/or gearboxes. This will let the spader run correctly on 1000 RPM input. However since your tractor can only run at 540 this will cut the speed that the spader runs in...

Wow that is a really neat unit. Thank you very much for posting the photos. Very cool machine!

The 302A is a modified 1520. They share the same injection pump, and many other components.

With it being only 10 miles I would just drive it over with the tractor. Make sure there is an SMV sign on the implement, the tires are good, transport axle is greased, and stay off the interstate. A 10' disc is only 1.5' to 2' wider than a normal trailer so it will fit on most roads just...

Many of the "amazon special" stake pocket tire carriers are flimsy. The Buyers 5201012 tire carrier is well built and does not rattle. Most of the off brands knocked the design off and are half the weight. https://www.amazon.com/Buyers-Products-5201012-Pocket-Carrier/dp/B07FGNLKNS My trailer has...

Wow that is a rare machine. I have never seen anything like it. Most of the Emco conversions were stuffing a power wagon axle under the front of the tractor to make it 4x4. Please post more pictures of it! especially of the rear axle.

I used forks for moving 5x6 twine bales and they worked good enough. Hay Dude lays out the points well. Used a rough terrain forklift a few times when the skidsteer or backhoe was at another farm. Bale Spear is much easier and does not require any skill. A Squeeze Grapple like @LouNY...

This applies to class 8 trucks. However farm equipment has all sorts of different mounting patterns, mounting angles, ride heights, and two main different types of safety switches. This is one of the reasons finding seats for compact tractors is such a pain. Seats are so different on so many...

Chocking is not an acceptable primary method of restraint per the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, the rule making body for commercial on road transportation. Straps or chains are considered the main method of securing a load. @sea2summit posted excellent information on load...

The R1's are meant to squat more than a R4 or a car tire. The sidewalls are designed to flex more to increase the tire footprint lowering ground pressure. R4's are designed to hold loads with minimal side wall flex as it could lead to the tire breaking the bead on a skidsteer, or causing scary...

The issue is that with a box it does not get the scouring action that a plow does as the snow is not sliding across the surface. Therefor it does not see the cleaning action snow gives a blade. However with a box it really likes to pack in there. If the surface is not smooth it will be much...

Interesting, I did not realize that all the models shared the same transmission. I think knowing what the base model is would help with all parts issues. Also it is hard to say that it is not an older machine, and the year is wrong given the disconnect between 80's and 4500 model. Having the...

The best option would be to try to ID the base tractor. So when your looking at the radiator from the outside of the machine the data will be on the left side as seen shown in the photo below. Post the numbers and we will ID the machine. The model code is the important one, the other numbers...

I am not much help on an OEM knob. However the thread is a 10mmx1.5 so you could use any knob that has that thread such as the one below. https://www.amazon.com/HHIP-8017-0035-Ball-Knob-Thread/dp/B019RATYSW Not sure if this is what you were looking for but its an idea.

Thanks for posting the follow up. Let us know how it does for you once you get the weights in!

I agree with the prior 5 posters that I do not think this is a good idea. But using a clip like the one below will work. Put the loop in the door and push until the latch locks. Then use the clip to clip on the post on the cab pillar. It will put your door 3-4" open. If you decide to go...

The AGCO part number for the rocker arm is 33-0019348. It is used on the white 2-30 and 2-35. Below is a listing of some salvage machines. I will add that if they are an all states ag parts yard then call the yard the machine is located at and reference the stock number of the machine. I have...

Not to derail your thread but this is a great idea, I had never thought of it but it makes lots of sense. Thanks for sharing the manual diverter setup idea to switch between hyd SSQA and 3rd function.

If the tachometer is not working make sure to fix that when it is split. On the 20C diesel getting the tachometer cable off is a real SOB with the engine on. You have to pull the engine to take the tach drive off. For the throttle you might need a new friction disc 180713M2.

I would replace the following on the transmission: Pressure plate. In your post you mentioned PTO slipping. The pto disc wear caused the slipping indicating that it is nearing the end of its life, adjusting it is a last resort to avoid splitting. 180434M1 seal for input housing 192329M2 housing...

Good news is that you do not need to pull the main input shaft out of the rear. Here are the instructions for the 20C which is newer than yours but most of the components are the same.

LouNY has great advice in both his posts even if I disagree on R1W as there is a place for them just not what LouNY is doing. 6 degrees of slope is pancake flat in my area. A higher ply tire is better for corn stubble. For doing loader work I like a higher ply tire. For doing hay, and seeding...

What model of tractor do you have? L42 is not a valid Kubota model. Once we have a correct model we can provide pertinent advice. If you have a nut on the outside then the fastener is a stud and they are press fit in. If they fastener on the outside is a bolthead then they are lug bolts and...

Cables are often made to a standard. I know I had good luck with the local Caterpillar dealer making up control cables for equipment for me. Your going to most likely have problems with a used cable. If the machine was bad enough to end up in a salvage yard I would be suspect of the cable.

What transmission do you have? There was a 8x2 (4 speed with 2 ranges) or a 6 speed manual reverse (3 speed with 2 ranges and a third lever for reverse). Also have you investigated the parts manual...

I was unable to determine the part number for the weights.

Bentram and scipiousa are spot on. I know that the 9 spring clutch on my Massey is a real sob to depress. A medium duty 6 spring will be much easier to depress.

The E-PTO function is in the transmission section. I do not think you can remove just that section of the transmission and transplant it. Brown Dog listed what transmissions came with E-PTO. I am no expert on the transmission. That damn clutch caused me a lot of headache at work. Not that...

Kubota offers weight brackets for when the mower is equipped with a grass catcher. I do not know what catcher fits your mower, but for the GCK72H the left bracket is K6031-21812 and the right is K6031-21822. Then you set suitcase weights on them to weight the mower down. Please note that if...

They work great for all but heavy slushy snow. I used a sweepster broom on a 5610 and it could chew through drifts higher than it (very slowly). Brooms leave a very good finish on virgin snow. However they would leave packed snow like footprints or tire tracks in place. We used it on an area...

What you describe sounds like the pto disc is slipping. I had the same problem with my Massey 20C and was able to adjust the clutch to get more life out of it. Below is a guide that Big Dean made that describes the adjustment process.

The 5045E was only offered with the 9x3 transmission. The dry clutch is an Carraro unit. It is built backwards of most dual clutches with the transmission disc captured and the pto disc at the front free. This is a pain as you either have to disassemble the entire clutch to replace the...

I like quick hitches as I can back up to implements and hook up only getting out to attach the PTO shaft. A hydraulic toplink makes life much easier. I have an Agsmart cat 1 quick hitch on my 45hp tractor. It does not work on every implement such as the moldboard plow and my box blade (Massey...

I am pretty sure it is an Athens. The top of the springs on the Athens are not connected like the IHC, the wheels are on the outside of the frame, and the toplink attaches to the vertical part of the 3pt mast not the angled support like the IHC 55...

Nice job on the 3pt controls and the tool boxes XXLT250RXX. I like the functionality, it sure beats getting in the cab to adjust the hitch when hooking up implements. What did you use for the handle? How did you hook it up under the tractor? How are the boxes in the way? The remotes are...

What do you plan on doing? What tasks do you need done, and in what conditions? Tractors make poor dozers due to lack of ability to put the power to the ground, difficulty steering under load, and a drivetrain that is not meant for those sort of loads. With that being said the following...

A spool uses a 5" or so casing above the pitless so you have zero protrusion into the well. They are nice to work on. Thanks for posting the well log. Makes life easier. You have a screened well, it has a reasonable draw down. If you have to replace it I would do the same depth, with the...

A few questions: * Is the well a screened well (casing to a screen) or is it open bore (casing to rock then a hole drilled through the rock) ** If the well is screened how long is the screen? ** If the well is an open bore how long is the casing? * What depth is the pump hung at? (how far below...

I have cut the teeth off with a angle grinder and cut off wheel. you might be able to drill the dimple out. As stated already a torch works too. Let us know what you do!

Going with new valves is the best choice given the age of the machine. I think JD was using Gresen so a direct replacement is no longer available. Rich B1 is correct about the different spools. The JD manual shows that each spool had a different housing. You can restore operability with...

Yep, that's a Massey 50A. Has a 300 front loader with a 54 backhoe. The rotary swing motors on the backhoes are a real SOB to find parts for. The backhoe can dig 174", with a 206" reach from the swing post. Total weight is over 10,500 lbs. It looks well used so if your up for repairing...

There was a Massey 30 tractor that was sold as a Tractor-Loader-Backhoe. There was also a Massey 300 Loader that was mounted on the Massey 50A Tractor that was sold as a tractor-loader-backhoe. It is common for folks to see the tag on the left side loader support arm and think its a tag for...

The clutch housing TC020-14116 was only used on the L3000 in the us. Tractorhouse.com lists dismantled equipment in salvage yards. https://www.tractorhouse.com/listings/search?ModelGroup=L3000&Manufacturer=KUBOTA&Condition=DISMANTLED Some of these might be viable parts donors.

So the 5045E was not offered with a 1000rpm, or a 540E PTO. Hub city offers a speed increaser for taking a 540 to 1000rpm allowing you to run at almost 1/2 speed. The part number is 0220-06207-390 and I am not sure if they still offer them.

Had a friend with a 550 and a 655D that we would move 5x6 round bales with. I always liked using a TLB instead of a skid steer. Good visibility with the TLB, as the skidsteer was driving by brail with a 6' wide bale on the front. I would not try a chain on spear with a regular farm bucket...

The most common cause for the lift cover cylinder cracking is that the relief valve on the hydraulic pump was stuck and allowed the system to over pressurize. I would encourage you to replace the relief valve, it is on the pump and easily accessible when you fix the cylinder. There are...

There could be several causes for your well over flowing. Do your neighbors have high water levels in their wells? Did the well always flow over? How old is the well? If the aquifer your in has a high static water level it could cause the well go go artisian. Depending on the weather it...

I was at a farm show last year and noticed there is no consistency from the OEM's on this. Below is what I saw on the Loader: Case IH: 2 Male Flush Face Fent: 2 Female AG John Deere: Male / Female Ag Kubota: Male / Female Ag Versatile: 2 male AG Zetor: 2 Female AG Almost all skid steers will...

So there are PTO driven water pumps available. I do not know your exact details but some pumps might work, whereas others will not. Trash pumps, can lift a moderate head, and can be used with a decently long discharge...

Ford used lots of metal tube and rubber hose hybrids. Most of the time they are no longer available. The best way to fix these is to use a tube bite fitting. Swagelok and the Parker Ferulok are two good examples. You will cut the tube off on a straight section close to the hose. Then clean...

There are difference in the different pumps. There were multiple sizes of pistons, different relief valves, shafts etc. Many can interchange, however put a high pressure big bore pump on a thin lift cover tractor, and really bad things happen. The 35 used a lower pressure 0.91" piston pump...

That is a one pipe jet pump. Water is pumped down the center pipe goes through a venturi, then comes up the space between the pipe going down and the well casing and into the house. You can replace it with a vertical style of pump, however you would need to find a well cap that would let you...

The depth of a well is irrelevant, I worked on a 300' well that had a pump hung at 27', it was an odd area where the water was deep, but the water level was high. How deep is the water table, how much draw down does the well have, what is the desired flow rate (or the production capacity of the...

The RCK54-32 is used for the B2301, B2401, B2601. I do not know what the differences between it and the RCK54-29B is. If your serious I would look on the kubota parts website and compare the two models side by side. https://shop.kubotausa.com/oemparts/c/kubota_tractor/parts on the right type...

Its been some time, however I finally got around to working on this. I learned from the previous owner that the bucket only worked backwards after he had a guy put in a new joystick. I replaced that joystick with a Buyers B206305 joystick and two 48" Buyers B302845048 cables. I had to drill...

For weights, ASAP has some decent prices. I had a friend put them on his NH TC31DA with R4. Not sure if these exact ones would work on your R1 tires. But I would check out All States Ag Parts for new weights. https://www.tractorpartsasap.com/weight-wheel-rear-new-agco-79018829-case-ih-123285.html

That is impressive! Hats off to LS! Thank you for sharing what they did, I have a hard time believing JD, Kubota, NH or most any other brand going that far for a customer. I am glad that they fixed the issue, and fixed it right!

Well not every part.... But damn near every part. The Long 550 is not a bad machine. The power steering, 8 speed transmission, and independent PTO will be pure luxury compared to the bare bones 8N. The Long 550 was made in Romania, however some parts might be getting hard to find for it. Its...

Pulling wells can be hard, or easy. Depends on what it has for drop pipe, condition of well and and the pitless adapter style. Most drop pipe is 1" for residential wells. Note that Cycle Stop is 1-1/4" female NPT, so you will most likely need a 1" female to 1-1/4" male adapter. If the pitless...

Not sure if I would pull the entire section out. I get nervous opening valves up. I would just take the end cap off and clean that up. Leave the spool in the bore less chances of inducing contamination. If I remember right some of the MF loaders had self leveling built into the valves. I...

Neat old tiller! Can you measure how long the cylinder is retracted? You might be able to replace it with a rachet jack. These are commonly used on rotary cutters, and other applications in place of a hydraulic cylinder...

I had a similar issue with a tractor running poorly. It turned out to be a problem with the fuel shut off. This tractor had a cable actuated shut off and the cable had slipped causing it to not completely open up with the cable pushed in. The engine was lugging like OP, and it had no throttle...

Your local dealer might be more cost effective. Since they often get free shipping from the distributors if they buy enough. Buying blades online can be $$ due to shipping.

IF you do not switch the Kioti to 1/2" you could make an adapter. I would keep the grapple 1/2" as that is more common. Parker and Safeway are both USA made brands. 1/2" body female body 1/2" female NPT https://qualityfarmsupply.com/products/hyd-coupler-body 1/2" male to 3/8" male NPT...

The Ultra Cab II is used on the M95, M96, M105, M108, M4900, M5700, M6800, M8200, M9000 tractors. Here are a few things I have found out about them. The front 34070-71130 wiper is a 17" j hook style front wiper that is common to many vehicles these days. Some wipers will hit the arm, so you...

The 1720 used the 7108 loader, the 7108 fit the 1320-1920. For the 3 cylinder tractors it used a 9600429 rear bracket, and a 9600438 front bracket. The 4 cylinder 1920 used a 9600682 rear bracket and a 9600675 front bracket. This definitively suggests that the brackets would need to be...

Yep your right. I have corrected my post!

Kubota utilizes Cummins in their M8 line, the M7 line still is Kubota engined. Yep, the Versatile Nemesis is the Kubota M8. Kubota is not making the M8, it is made in the Versatile factory. Versatile painted it orange, and made some changes per Kubota's request to differentiate it.

The hitch that PTSG posted is often called a pickup hitch. I have never seen them available on a US spec tractor, they are common on euro spec. The trailers use a lunette ring instead of pin hole clevis style that is common in the US. The trailer tongues will also have a short stand to hold...

Bolens / Iseki parts are going to be a pain to get. There might be places that offer them, however it is going to be a pain most of the time you need to get parts. I would be very hesitant to get a Bolens / Iseki due to parts availability or lack there of. If your comfortable with that...

If your cab is that badly tweaked it could put pressure on the glass causing it to break again. A temporary plexiglass windshield might be in order for this season. Menards has big sheets of Lexan and Plexiglass that you could cut with a jigsaw. Once the cab is fixed then get a real glass...

If the glass is flat it is not a problem to get new glass. You just have to find a glass shop (not an auto glass installer). If it is curved glass your going to be in trouble. I have had glass cut for a few pieces of equipment by different glass companies. I will make a template out of 1/4"...

In worst case you might want to try a custom rim manufacture. Below are the ones I know of that are reputable. These rims will be some $$ but its better than a worthless tractor. https://heywheel.com/ https://www.woldinc.com/ You will need to find a dealer for Unverferth. https://www.umequip.com/

The SBA320111115 replaces 87761135, 87778681, 87780625, SBA320111112, SBA320111113, SBA320111114, SBA320111440. However I am not 100% positive on the backwards compatibility of the housings. I suspect it would work. However I can not definitively say so. If you spend some time looking at the...

Lineman are human and make mistakes, a backfeeding generator can kill them if they screw up. Yes, they should have the line grounded or covered up when working near them. However how many days has that lineman been working straight. It significantly increases the chance of them making an...

The Pats quick hitch should fit. I prefer a U frame style quick hitch, it has been hashed over here a million times pats vs u frame, there are pros and cons to each. Also a bush hog can be heavy. Your 231 does not have any weights on the front so it could be a light front causing your steering...

The challenges with rims is that the bolt circle and pattern for the inner disc is not standardized. I know that Kubota utilizes the same design, but am not sure if the pattern is the same. I am also not aware of any aftermarket vendor offering this style of rim. In the link you provided it...

Glass doors break all the time. I never move the tractor without the doors shut. Have seen them get busted by almost anything. Gate posts, rocks, barn doors, etc. They are dang expensive to replace too. Would hate to bust a glass door or bend a metal door up.

It is below the steering wheel on the dash to right of the steering column if memory serves me right.

I always thought a tinnerman washer was a countersunk washer. A concave washer meant to apply tension to a part is a bellville washer. If made of a thinner material and used as a spring then its a belleville spring. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belleville_washer

Not sure what the area your looking at plowing or your snow falls but here are my thoughts. A 6' blade at a 30 degree angle will clear 62" so you might not run it at full angle, an 7' blade will clear 72". If your planning on leaving the blade on with the blower I would get the narrower blade...

*Check reservoir on steering pump to make sure it is full. *See if you can turn wheels by spinning steering wheel with engine off (lots of turns, hard work) *Take the output line off of the pump and plug in the pressure gauge. Start the tractor and rev it up. The pressure should be 1500PSI...

Is the handle with the round ball (draft control, outer lever) all the way back? If the draft control is not all the way back the square knob handle (position control, lever closer to you) will not work right.

I am glad Kubota does not spec out synthetic. The cost of it is much much higher than traditional dino oil. When i lived up in mid Minnesota we would run equipment with 15W40 and start it at -15 F on a daily bases. This is air temp, not windchill. If it was below -20 we did our best to...

Generally and offset disc is a primary tillage tool, whereas an tandem disc is a secondary tillage tool. Primary tillage such as moldboard plows and offset discs are meant to break the ground, and secondary tillage such as tandem discs are to condition the already broken soil. Offset discs...

The 20 series and later had this, this was just for hooking up with. There was no way to keep them extended.

The fixed side is known as the side link, the adjustable side is the leveling arm or leveling box assembly. Not sure why one side is a link but the other is an arm. I am sure there are other regional names. The lift arm are the two lower horizontal pieces that attach to the implement.

Adjustable length lift arms? Can you post photos of them? I have seen extendable lift arms, however they are for hooking up an implement and will retract if compression is applied to them. They are not designed to be used extended. However adjustable length lift arms are something I have...

Not sure which wrench set your needing. For undoing most lines I like a regular open end crowfoot. It gives you the ability to use extensions to reach up into areas to get to hoses. On a 550 Backhoe I had to replace the main pressure line and it is way up in the frame, I used a extension with...

The McCormick CT41 is equal to the LS R4041 and the New Holland Boomer 40.

its pretty straightforward. You dont stand between the implement and the rear tire, you stand to the side. There is no safety issue if you don't do anything stupid. If you watch the vid Bryce is standing outside of the tire so no danger. Bryce did a great job on the control.

The part you need is the K913224. It was used on the Case 380CK, 1194, and David Brown 770A, 770B, 780, 885, 885N. Below are listing for some dismantled machines. https://www.tractorhouse.com/listings/search?Model=380CK%7C770A&Manufacturer=CASE%7CDAVID%20BROWN&Condition=DISMANTLED...

I like the Pioneer plugs and caps. They are available in different colors such as Black, Blue, Red, Yellow, Green. The plugs are part number 5205-4M and the caps are 5209-4M for 1/2" body units in black. https://qualityfarmsupply.com/collections/rubber-dust-plugs-caps-pioneer The Faster...

yep. You could get them from JoeCDeere's link or Gators link. https://qualityfarmsupply.com/collections/slip-clutch-discs/products/slip-clutch-disc-6-5x2-63 Once they are replaced and the nut is tightened enough then your good.

I am thinking that those "gaskets" are actually friction material (like whats on brake pads).

Width depends on how you use it. Wide as tractor - can grab more volume of brush - good if used as a rake as it cleans up the width of the tractor. Narrower - uses less of loader rating you can carry heavier loads - more maneuverable in the woods - can grab a branch / log that is at more of an...

You can buy a category 1-2 bushing then put a category 2-3 bushing over that and get the implement the right size. The bushings are cheap enough you can just leave them on. 1 to 2 https://agcrazy.com/873-351-lift-arm-bushing-cat-1-2-1-3-4-l 2 to 3...

I have seen similar heavy spec, long and narrow trailers for rollers and pavers. With pavers they would side load them with long ramps. Not saying that is what this was used for. But it could be.

That is a slip clutch. It appears to be a belleville spring style. I would try tightening the nut on the back between the gear box and the clutch. If that does not work I would remove the clutch from the gear box and disassemble it to see if it has friction material in it. If it does most...

I love having a steering knob. When your doing hay it makes turning back in on a row much easier than having to spin the steering wheel by and and gives a general reference on when your wheels are straight again. I also like it for loader work as you can keep one hand on the loader controls...

I would make a shed with a concrete floor that would house everything. No need to make it removable by tractor, so long as you can get get a tank in it, you will be fine, however the well contractors always appreciate it if you make it a little larger so you have room to hook up pipes. A small...

It is not quite this clear. The OEM will sometimes buy from a distributor to reduce number of vendors they have to deal with. So figure 30% gross margin for that distributor = 42% markup $10 part is not $14.20. The part now needs to go to a repackaging firm so add another $2 to get the part...

I am not trying to argue. But I would encourage you to look at the test reports I posted. I do not know the exact transmission set up you have as there are multiple tests for most major types of transmissions. Below are some exerts from the reports listed in my prior post. MX135X standard PTO...

Arrow, thank you for the honest review. It is the first one I have read on TBN of a person who actually drove an electric tractor. I believe that there is a place for them, as you have stated. Also the industry numbers I have seen are around 26 hours per year are average for a compact...

The Agco Challenger equivalent to the MX135X was the Challenger MT475B. The MT535B is the next frame size up tractor compared to the M135X or the MT475B. In your situation the larger framed tractor fits your needs much better. Kubota is not known for the best ergonomics or cutting edge...

They might be. I am not privy to the inner workings of Bad Boy. What I was there for did not involve implements nor upper management. Generally the tractor manufactures will switch implement providers on a whim. There is no loyalty to implement makers, just a swap and run if the tractor...

I have been to the Bad Boy factory in Batesville AR and saw LS Landplanes, Box Blades, and Rotary Cutters being made there.

Male poppet and female coupler replaced on both lines in the spool. This was my inital though which is why I replaced them. A blown seal would cause drift in tension cylinders. The bucket stays still with no drift. 4 way 3 position is in reference to the bucket section. The boom section is...

It is not a regenerative dump system. It is only a standard 4 way 3 position valve.

Most tractor lines are steel or stainless steel. Grainger, and Zoro both list high pressure stainless tubing. I am sure that there are other sources as well. A common set up for hydraulic lines is to use a swagelok style fitting, or to flare the line and use a JIC or SAE fitting. I will use...

So I have a unique problem with a hydraulic valve that I have never seen before. Helping a friend with a Kubota M108S and a LA1403 loader that he recently bought. The tractor has open center hydraulics. When he bought the tractor the bucket was hooked up backwards. So when you moved the...

I do not normally post in the buying section as folks just post "buy what I did as its the best" or even stupider "weight is the number one consideration when buying a tractor". Here are my thoughts, you did not mention much about the lay of the land so I do not know if you have much in the way...

For this discussions sake I called them steel wheels. Your correct they do have some rubber, and it is bolted on a steel wheel, some anabaptist faiths utilize these wheels. Due to the lack of traction and damage to the roads they will wrap the steel wheels with treads or rubber blocks. They...

I am not that familiar with the 2605H. However I believe that all came with draft control. It would be the taller of the two outside levers next to the 3point hitch controls. The plastic handled unit is the position control, the taller of the outer levers is draft control, and the smaller of...

In the link that SmallChange posted it shows an older massey tractor with rubber front tires and steel rear with a small mesh utility type trailer. I am guessing Amish and they were going somewhere as a family.

I have been to Bad Boy's factory in Batesville, AR and can say for certain that they are making their own box blades, land grader, and rotary cutters in the USA. I am not sure about the other stuff. They are also making attachments for LS as well...

You need a heater houser / weather brake. They have been used since the 50's. They are made large enough to fit your tractor. Don't offer any protection from the snow, but they do keep you warm. http://www.femcomfg.com/products/weather-protection

Can you provide some additional background? There is way to many variables for us to offer good solid suggestions without additional data. Glad to see your running the PTO at 540, its amazing the number of folks who do not, then wonder why the finish is not good. What make / model of flail...

Being an engineer I am am sure you already know this. Take the extra time and lay the harness out and label all the plugs. Test fit all items that are being replaced in the harness before installing them. It makes it easier to find any issues that either need corrected or a new harness...

I would not worry much about the axles. They are built much heavier than the cab. From the damage the cab took, I would strongly suspect your axles are fine. If the cab had been completely flat then I would worry about axles, and bellhousing of engine / transmission. However it never hurts...

Labeling and photographing everything, then disassembling the wiring, cab interior and HVAC, steering, hydraulic controls, etc, then reassembling it, troubleshooting whatever gremlins show up and fixing them. On top of that it is a job the mechanic has never done on this tractor. I think that...

You can you water pipe fittings for high pressure lines, however you will potentially have increased failures. High pressure fittings have tighter tolerances, and better quality control. The biggest issue is liability. Lawyers can get pretty excited about using low pressure fittings for high...

Lucas has been really struggling with keeping up with demand. Where I work is a distributor for them and their on time delivery rates on grease is particularly bad. I completely understand the hesitation to mix grease haydude.

John Deere uses lug bolts on all their compact MFWD tractors front axles, as you get larger its a mixed bag. For example the 8R370 uses lug bolts, but the 5090E uses lug nuts, not sure of JD's logic behind the randomness. Kubota uses lug bolts on all their compact tractors, but studs on their...

A loose wheel bolt is normally a result of error. Loosing a whole wheel is the same situation. I am pretty sure the manual says to check for loose bolts and periodically retighten. I have not heard of loose lug bolts occurring more on any JD compared to other brands. I had a wheel fall off...

Thanks for starting this thread. I wish you luck on getting it all squared away!

I was really hoping that someone had found the magical quiet tractor. I am very noise adverse, however have never found a "quiet tractor". The closest would have been a International 140 that had been modified as a carrier for a piece of specialty equipment. The tractor never ran above fast...

There are two blow guns that I use to clean out the radiator. I like the Milton 159 4' blow gun as you get to stand mostly out of the dust cloud when cleaning the radiator. I use the safety tip with it to reduce chance of bending fins. It is USA made too...

Kubota is pretty stringent on dealers not selling much below MSRP. Messicks and Coleman equipment both have strong online stores for Kubota parts. However the price will most likely not be much if at all lower than your local dealer, and you have to pay for shipping. OEM dealers also do not...

If your tractor has a skidsteer quick attach there will be several options for 4in1 buckets. However you will need to be careful as the lift capacity on a KL130 loader is only 1155 lbs. 4in1 buckets are significantly heavier than regular buckets because of the bottom lip being very thick...

Some ideas, not if they would do the job though. Try replacing the knives with cup knifes instead of L knifes for a finer cut. Pull a trailer behind to blow into. https://www.deere.com/en/hay-forage/harvesting/flail-chopper/ If you watch golf course auctions these come up every so often...

I have the lines on the third function on my loader valve going to a Tee so that the rear remote is the same as the loader auxillary. It is not ideal, as you can only leave one implement hooked up at a time, however it lets me have a rear remote. Better way would be to put a power beyond port...

For flaring you would it is common to use a Ridgid 377 or Imperial 447 or 537. The Imperials are rated for a heavier wall than the Ridgid. For bending there are more options but Imperial 564, Ridgid 600 or 3?8, and Parker all offer tools. The larger stuff 5/8" and 3/4" requires geared benders...

You have a Bondioli Pavasi shaft.

Most tractor lines are steel or stainless steel. This is because cupro-nickel are easier to damage, also working pressure is not always enough for hydraulics. I believe with a B21 you will need 2500 PSI working pressure absolute minimum, but a 3000 PSI working pressure would be safer. A...

I would probably use Stainless lines and look for something with a 3,000 psi working. I would encourage you to go with 3/8" tubing as it will be close to 1/4" hoses in size. Tubing is measured by the OD and hose is measured by the ID. 1/4" tubing is extremely small and will be very very slow...

Nice job. Very professional looking. Thank you for sharing.

Good approach to good ownership. Its amazing what you find when greasing. Not a fun task, but an important one for good care of equipment.

I try to grease every 8 hours. However I will grease before doing a large job, or after a long time of sitting. Figure the grease drives the water and contaminates out. I would love a battery powered grease gun, but have to settle for an air powered one for now. Greasing every oil change is...

The part number is BU81622. It is discontinued by CNH. it was previously $1621. Buying the parts unit would most likely be the best option, assuming no other damage was done to the unit when it snapped. Catastrophic damage like what is on your unit had to have required some significant...

Reddogs, all the brands you list make good machines for the most part. They have all made duds as well. The dealer is the deciding factor. For example I know Challenger is a good brand, however my coworker has terrible issues with his, but most is due to an incompetent dealer. With that...

On a shear bolt style driveline the pin hole is normally small. Its a pilot hole and you drill it out to fit your needs.

There is a member here who helps lots of folks on pump questions. He has an injection pump shop and is well thought of in this forum and others. Below is his profile. https://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/members/thepumpguysc.91346/

I am assuming you have a Kubota MX5400, since the MX54 is not a valid model. The door latch on the MX5400 left door appears to be the same as the Kubota B3030. The B3030 has a handle for the right door I am guessing that they would work on your right door. Below is the diagram for the B3030...

Not Sure about AU, but finding banjo fittings in the US is terrible. We normally replace them with O-Ring Boss (ORB) due to rarity.

I believe the part you need for the clutch housing is SBA320111930. It is used on the New Holland TC34DA, TC35DA, Boomer 2035, T2220, Case IH: DX34, DX35. Parts Manuals can be found here. mycnhistore.com Salvage tractors can be found here...

Not sure were Reddogs is but if he is up north the steel deck trailers rust something horrid. Salt gets in between the deck and the cross members and wrecks havoc. What is the weight capacity of the current trailer are you using Red? I am surprised that it is struggling with your Kubota if it...

I hope you don't mine I have a few more questions. What did you use for a pump and motor, make/model or specs? Also what were the diameters of the lines you used?

I do not know how I missed this thread. Orebonder you did a great job on the fab work. Thank you for showing us what you did and how you constructed it. I am curious on some details on the reservoir. The well pressure tanks generally have a diaphragm that is attached to the inside sides of...

The Little Wonder blower most likely has a 3600 rpm engine on it. With a 540 PTO you will have no blow, and it will most likely turn the wrong direction. You will most likely have to replace the motor, or look at some serious fab work to make it function how you want.

With allpartsstore it is a site run by A&I for the dealer. So your buying from A&I with the local dealer getting a cut, if I remember correctly. I know that would be a good safe bet. I cannot speak about the other sites, not that they are not reputable.

A&I is one of the major aftermarket agricultural parts distributors in the US. They have thousands of dealers, and are a reputable company, and have been in business for quite some time. But watch out about shipping glass from them. I know they pack it really well, however they have some...

I like a 12 gauge SOOW or SJOOW cord. They are very flexible down to -10 or so. I have not see any other cord be able to handle the cold the same. I have destroyed many of the thermoplastic cords in winter. I would have to move cords between equipment at job sites due to limited power...

I did this a few winters ago with a Ford 655D. Had a limb hit me in the face and throw my glasses off. Had to have my friend who was in the tractor lower the bucket so I could find my glasses. Not what I would call safe. But you have to do what you have to do some times. I had made a...

I like 48" for most things. 48" allows for me to set things further back in truck beds, or the center of a trailer. I can lift more logs / pipe / etch with a 48". They allow for me to get further under what I am lifting such as a trailer. In the woods or barn, I just watch what I am doing. I...

Whats the weight on the Prime Grapple? Also do you want a rock grapple or a brush grapple? The brush grapple has wider spacing so debris falls through like DGZRT posted. A rock grapple will have narrower spacing to allow dirt to fall through but retain rocks. The removable sides, along with...

I see Grainger has some USA made 20 gallon Speedaire units. Not sure who else makes a portable unit. 20 gallons is a darned big tank to lug around.

A local hydraulics shop should be able to provide the seals needed, if you bring the cylinder to them. Otherwise Bradco is part of Paladin now. https://www.paladinattachments.com/dealer-locator

They only sell to dealers.

I know HLA makes several quick attach adaptors, they are in Listowel ON it might be worth giving them a call.

You have a pin grabber. It will allow you to only use attachments that are made for that model of loader. If you want to use the standard skid steer quick attach you will need to get an adapter that will replace the pin grabber, something like an ATI MF3. You will then need a bucket with a...
