    Vertical exhaust conversion.

    Anybody do a vertical exhaust on their B? I did to my B3200. I got tired of soot on everything. I got a short bend 90 and went straight up from the outlet of the muffler. It did involve cutting a hole in the hood but I must say once i got over that I am very pleased. It involves pulling the...

    Gator vs Kubota RTV

    I presently own a diesel JD Gator but have been considering the Kubota RTV. Should I be or should I stick with the Gator.
