Kubota 3010 - Trailer

sroane · Mar 14, 2006

I'm looking for the specs on a Kubota 3010 with FEL (weight, length and width) so that I can buy the right trailer to haul it (buying a '99 model this weekend). Where can I find the specs? Any suggestions on trailers?
Thanks!!!

I haul mine on a 14' tandem axle trailer with 3500 # axles and I've had no problems. The trailer frame is not heavy duty by any means.

My neighbor hauls his on a 6' 8" wide x 18' long deck tandem 3500 lbs Dexter axles ( 7,000 GVW) equipped with a 2 5/16" ball. He can leave his attachments in place. FEL and Bushog mower with no interference to tailself. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Tractor is 2800, the FEl is about 1000 to 1200 with the mounts and bucket. IF the tires are filled that adds about 400-500 more pounds per tire depending on size and fill material. Firestone's web site has weight specs on filled tires. If you put a heavy implement on it, you will be close to over weight for a 7k trailer. You only get to haul about 5000 pounds net weight as the trailer is about 2000 pounds. If it's a one time shot to get the tractor...well it's up to you. Don't forget to chain it down good. I go thru the big hole in the loader and thru the rear wheels. Use a ratcheting binder, not the snap over ones. Around here the troopers will stop you if you don't use DOT transport chains.

They'll stop you for chaining the FEL not the tractor too. Chain to the frame of the tractor (through the brush guard or whatever) not just the FEL.

Never use nylon or poly straps either. Sure way to get a ticket.
