The trailer is rated at 7000# gross. I do not haul the 3940 on it. That trailer is for my small stuff.

I like that your bucket hook(s) are on the back side of your bucket and not directly on top of it. Yeah, nice set up you have there.

I always put one on the back so I can lift near the pins when possible. The other one allows me to dump the bucket and lift over the front.

Nice looking tractor! Must be a showroom display though! Not even a scratch on the bucket.

Neat idea with the hook on the back!

I don't recall seeing a cylinder attach like that. Could you take another pic of how it mounts and is connected to the bucket? Maybe I'm just not looking at it right. Oh, BTW, nice tractor.

I have been using the forks and grubber since I got it. Been pushing a little dirt with the old B7500.

The QA came with the loader from Kubota. I do not know who made it for Kubota. I will look it over and see if it says.

The cylinder is attached to relay link. I will try to remember to get a pic of it.

That's a better overall pic. Thanks. I guess the way the cylinder rod looks like it screws into the pipe is what had me puzzled.

Sweeeet new L tractor.

It looks like the curl cylinder linkage on the loader has 2 positions
on the QA bracket. Some thought went into that design.

Thanks for the links, came close to ordering on Friday, but decided to check out the 1 local tractor place I haven't visited - Washington County Tractors (NewHolland dealer) - Brenham TX. They carry them for hust under $5. Only problem they only had 1 and I want 4 or 5, should have them in a week - so by next weekend I should be set to head to my cousin-in-law with my bucket, hooks and a 12 pack of his choice.
