Will the L285 pull a single bottom plow well? I would not use a 16 inch, more like 14 or 12.

If rears are loaded, can this unit function as a good and solid tractor for low to moderate work loads?

Are parts getting to be a difficult situation? I see a few of these units with low hours and wonder why they are so cheap.


thanks

I have an early kubota L285 as well, I use a 6ft box blade, and a small 12" homemade middlebuster. No reason a 30hp cant pull a sungle bottom just fine. Parts should be OK, try Messericks if you need something. Only problem with parts is they will quickly pass your total purchase price if you need/want many new parts.
