    Oil & Fuel  Should I drain the fuel tank?

    Since moving to warmer climes, I have found it necessary to store my L4400 in a barn in New Hampshire. I'm only up there in the summer now, and for the past three summers it's seen only minimal use....<20 hours. I make an effort to see that the fuel tank is topped off with fresh (with...

    Price Check  50" Dirt Bucket

    I'm hoping that some of you guys are familiar with Bobcat OEM pricing. I have a chance to buy a small dirt bucket to use on the FEL of my Kubota, and I want to be sure that I don't overspend. The Bobcat part number is 7117434. The dealer says that it's brand new, but has been sitting in his...

    Loader  50 inch bucket

    My L4400 has a skid steer compatible quick attach feature on the FEL. I'm interested in locating a small bucket (48-52 inches wide) that I can use to offload a utility trailer that I use for mulch, stone, loam, gravel, etc. I assumed that my best bet was to find a used skid steer bucket since...

    Quick Hitches  Quick hitch question

    I've seen a number of posts here talking about modifying implements to be compatible with a quick hitch and I'm looking for more information on that topic. I have a Bush Hog backblade that is compatible and in the summer around here, I need to change out that blade with a splitter and an older...

    Front-End Loader  Toothbar on FEL bucket

    I use the bucket on my FEL quite a bit to "regrade" potholes on a gravel road. Unless I do it right after a rain, that gravel is pretty well packed and hard to scrape. Would a toothbar help with this? Also, if I keep the toothbar on the bucket all of the time, will it affect my ability to...

    American brand 3PH log splitters

    Just wondering if anybody had any experience with these splitters made by American. I have a chance to buy one that seems "next to new" for $800. I understand that they're made in upstate NY. I looked at their website, but it didn't offer pricing or a dealer locator. Does this look like a...

    CountyLine from Tractor Supply

    Does anybody have any practical experience with the new lower priced implements from TSC? I'm looking to buy a 5-6 foot backblade for very occasional use grading the rough spots/pot holes out of my road before gettin' after it with the York rake. It looks like the "old" KingKutter stuff is...

    Forks  QA Pallet fork design

    I wanted a set of QA pallet forks for my new L4400 and I already had a pair of old forks, so I did a little sketching and took them down to a welder friend (I can't weld worth a darn). I gave him the sketchs and asked him to be gentle on the price, hoping he could use steel he already had...

    QA Adapter Plate

    Just bought a brand new ('08) L4400 with QA loader. I also have a pair of old fork lift forks that I'd like to use on the new loader. I'm willing to detach the bucket and attach a separate setup when I want to use the pallet forks, but I also want the freedom to adjust the spacing between the...

    Block heater

    Just replaced a 1980 JD2040 with a brand new L4400. The JD was very hard starting in the winter and required the use of the block heater almost anytime the temperature went below 35 degrees F. I've been reading the posts here and see that most New England users feel that they don't need the...

    L4400 Block heater

    Just bought a new L4400 to replace a 1980 JD2040. I live in NH and always needed to use the block heater on the JD. I've been reading some of these threads and see that most guys in New England don't worry too much about cold starting, but without that block heater, I would've been in a world...
