I 'v gotten good advice on the trailer forum from members about brakes, but its time to expand here for more feed back on other aspects. I 'm having trouble prioritizing work order for this project. I want to get it minimally serviceable for short camping trips ( mostly primitive ) while I...

Sinned yesterday and hosed/washed my tractor :ashamed:. I did not sin enough to use soap or wax :thumbsup: I tilted the seat forward for quicker drying. This a.m. I tilted seat back and cranked her up. Noticed that the seat was not level from left to right. Put her in M gear, moved forward and...

I inherited a small 1973 Tag-A-Long travel trailer. It appears as though it was rigged for electric brakes. There are two wires ( cut ) coming out of each of the well drums( total of 4 wires ). How might I test to see if the brakes still function before buying needed vehicle controller and...

B2320 tractor - knob located below seat will not hand turn in either direction. It is set so that the 3ph will raise and lower. Knob has worked in the past, but I 've not tried to turn it lately until yesterday. I 'm reluctant to use any kind of wrench at this time for fear of braking the...

I 'm pretty much just tryin' to ballast FEL a bit when using for wood hauling, dirt, or road gravel. And I 'd like to stick with and average rate instead of adding or removing weight for a particular job as I 'm gonna use concrete for weight in one of those post cylinder things with a rod...

Kubota B2320 - changed out my fuel filter and it appears I may have a small leak somewhere around where the bowl screws into the receiver. My first thought is that I damaged one of the rubber O rings that seal bowl or tightened too much and cracked bowl. Bought replacement rings and, to be...

been lookin' at boxblades on TSC website. A 48'' and 72" are listed. Unfortunately, no weights are given so I can 't match them well with my Kubota B2320 recommended max. 54" 375 lbs. Is there anyplace on web I can get the weights ( nearest TSC to me is 30 mi. one way) ? I'd like 5 ' for 6"...

My 5 K genie has not been gettin' my power tool saws up to operating rpm . I metered it and found it is outputting 112 V.

I live in S.E. La. in deep thick woods and brush and am wondering when do those small horrible ground bees/wasps/hornets that swarm and attack relentlessly when disturbed begin to ground nest ? I need to do some heavy tractor work in back woods and want to be prepared. Doin' bush hoggin' and...

Ownin' up to bonehead move. I left oil filler cap off when adding a small amount of oil. Ran tractor intermittently for a total of maybe 45 mins run time.

I have a cat1 KK carryall. The lower pins point outward and are long. This causes me to have to spread lift arms very wide to insert pins in fisheyes. Is there any reason I shouldn 't or can 't reverse the direction of pins inward ? This would allow me to lift arms from the inside of pins and...

Ok, I did search the forum for an answer to this question, but found nothing that quite fit. I have a B2320, industrial tires. Manual says 40 psi rears and 35 psi front.

Been fightin' this a long time. I have a 5K coleman gasoline genie. The fuel tank has a recess at bottom of tank where screen filter empties into stopcock. I constantly get water condensation in tank so that water is the first thing sucked into the carb. Impossible to drain tank fully because...

Not in terms of what my tractor can handle, but in terms of how the buster performs. I 'm planning on getting one. Having never used one I don 't know if it has to be heavy to penetrate the ground or if the blade actual takes care of this. I 'm in fairly soft dirt with small diameter roots...

B2320, 48 " bucket, no tooth bar. I would be digging in fairly soft top soil ( no rocks ) with clay under it at about 6 " no deeper than a light drainage ditch maybe 8 ". Is this possible and what would be a good method ? How deep can a person dig with a FEL ?

I've got 52 hrs on tractor. Noticed yesterday that the seat vinyl is separating from the foam on the left "butt" side leaving a bubble as big if not bigger than my hand. Anyone had this problem ? should it be covered under warranty ? I 'll be wound tight if I here b.s. from dealer tomorrow...
