I wish I could buy a programmer for my tractor like I have for my duramax to gain a few extra pony's lol

Don't need a programmer to do that search for turning up injection pump. I assume you know this will void your warranty if you have one.

 

[nauxier16]

Yeah that would work but I sure don't want to void the warranty....it only has 30 hours on it lol, long time to go if something major happens

Guess it's too late to tell you this since you have bought a weight bracket. I'll go ahead and say in case someone else is looking....

There is an optional Kubota OEM weight bracket that will fit up to the M - series tractors that will hold 7 of the 105 lb weights. I have one on my M9540 and it fits nicely between the front grill guard on mine. My grill guard that was on my tractor won't allow me to put the larger/heavier cast weight bracket that holds 10 weights. The Kubota site (build it now) price is $211 for the weight bracket and $55 for the bolt/bar kit you need to secure the weights to bracket. Weights are $85 each.

Goodluck with your new bracket! I'm with you in that I remove my loader and load up the weights for cutting on the hillsides. Visibility is much better less the loader and the steering/manueverability is easier.

Good input Davidsan!!! I wonder what that bracket costs if you go to the dealership and buy it thru Parts???

Yeah that's what I was wondering too, the first dealer I tried to deal with told me the bracket would be $280.00 and the weights were $1.00 per pound, that was when I was going that route instead of the loader but I'm glad I went with the FEL
