Dirt Moving L39 TLB

[AJK CLASSIC MC]

Hi guys!

Just a hello to everyone out there that also owns a Kubota L39 TLB.
I am a new proud owner of a 2006 L39 TLB with a mere 410 hours on it. I was lucky to stumble onto this deal from a fellow in Bend Oregon. The unit is in very good condition and just had the complete 400 hour service performed by the original selling dealer who confirmed the unit was in very good condition. I trucked it home myself to Peace River in northern Alberta where it will be my personal unit around my 8 acres of riverfront property. The unit towed perfectly on my 18' 10,000 lb trailer behind my 1979 GMC 1 ton Frontier motorhome van with a 350 cubic engine. The L39 came with the standard 24" hoe bucket and 6' loader bucket plus a Woods DF4200 pallet fork and a Leinbach LBR-7WT back plow blade.

I am currently thinking of getting either a Woods XB72 or a LandPride HR2572 box scraper for this unit to do some landscape and driveway reconstruction on my fairly rough property. I would appreciate any feed backon these box scrapers and how they perform and wheter the hydraulic raising of the shanks performs any better to arrant the extra costs.

Love my L39. Six foot is a good size for box blades or angle blades behind L39. I take it your tractor does not have "top 'n tilt" hydraulics? Of the three functions... raising or lowering one side of the blade, adjusting top link length and raising or lowering scarifier teeth, the latter function is the one I'd do without. I don't use the teeth very often.

T 'n T is nice, and you or your dealer can add it at any time. But it is costly, probably $1K to $2K, most of it for the valves. Lots of hoses and fittings, too.

I recently got a 2006 L39 with 880hrs. on it. I just took the BH off & want to try out the 5' KK Tiller that came with it, land is starting to dry out now. My first Orange machine, so far I like it, should be very handy.
