Hello and thanks for the welcome. I presently own a Kubota 4030 utility tractor that I bought new in 1995. It has been a great tractor and have never had to tighten anything, ever. These Kubotas are put together well. I just bought a John Deere 3205 with loader for my son. Bought a new JD 2840 in 1977 and kept it til 1995. Could not have asked for a better tractor. Had more power than I could get to the ground. Never had any problem and pulled a 13' BWA without the wings. Did a great job with that.
