- Mahindra 5005DI
Hello, just joined. I recently traded my 1982 Kubota M4050 for the 2002 Mahindra 5005 with a ML214 Loader (plus a few $). Had the Kubota for a few years and did a good bit of work to get it right, but it was long in the tooth (3,500+ hrs) and did not have a loader. The 5005 popped up from a neighbor who has a tractor repair shop. It has 520 hours on the clock and is in great shape. My neighbor changed the oil, hydraulic & transmission fluids/filters and I just did the fuel filters and greased all the zircs. I also fabbed 2 arms to hold an ATV basket off the rear of the ROPs and mounted a tool box on the right fender. Tired of driving back to my truck to get a tool and carrying my chainsaws in the bucket while brush hogging. Lots of work to do on my 80 acres this spring with food plots a pumpkin patch and some drainage work. I have the owner/operator, service, and loader manuals, all of which are a bit lacking, so hopefully this site can fill in any necessary additional information. Hoping for a smooth growing season with the 'new' tractor.
