WVBIll, and VON
Thanks for all the info. I had a look at the 3ph on EBay - seems good value at $219, but there's no top link shown (plus I live across the 'pond') Nothing listed for kubota on ebay.co.uk. I think that Kubota is a minor-league supplier here in the UK, compared to JD,NH,Case etc
Still doesn't get round the problem of the mini-sized, reverse spinning pto on the 6000!!!
I know that there are reverser/converters available, but by the time I've got one of these, plus the 3ph bits, I may as well buy a cheap full size tractor with everything as standard. I could pick up an old Fergie T20 for around £800, possibly even less as so many farms here in England are going bust :-(
Thanks again for your help - really appreciated.
