Kubota Factory or dealer installed TNT

[Anonymous Poster]

I took delivery of a Kubota L4610 about 10 days ago. I had the dealer add TnT. Inside the cab next to the seat on the right side there are 3 small levers, like miniature versions of the draft control. The first is the top link, second (middle) is the tilt, and the third is hydraulic remote at rear above rt of 3ph which I use for the hydraulic raise/lower scarifiers on my box blade. Works great. Still learning to remember that these three controls don't work like the draft control. For example, when raising the top link you move the lever
B U T you have to place the lever in "neutral" when you get the top link where you want it 'cause it will go to the limit and bypass if you don't cancell the control, unlike the draft control where a position of the control corresponds to a position of the hitch.

Total cost: $1500 A N D W O R T H I T

Plus it came with extra parts, hoses, female couplings etc incase I want to relocate the remote hydraulics.

Patrick, that sounds like a great setup. But I think (could be wrong) that you're talking about "position control" when you say "draft control". They're two different things.

I paid approx $1500 for a dealer installed Gearmore, three spool valve, TNT, and the extra circuit ran up to the FEL for a grapple. I'm glad I bit the bullet up front. The Gearmore seems to be high quality, and the installation was very sanitary. It hangs on the right side of the ROPS. I end up driving with the left, right hand on the TNT, while looking towards the back. I chose to spend the money here vs a box blade with hydro scarifiers. I love it. BUT! Be aware, there are people that have never had TNT, and can use their blade 500% better than me. I believe experience is the key here.

Driver,

Here's the thread with the photos of my Gearmore setup.

I built my own TnT, and really like it. However, if I were to buy a new tractor, I would get it new with the tractor. since I got mine used, i made it myself.
