2016 Kubota M6060
im not lazy and ive been using the search button but not getting anywhere.
1)kubota doesnt make a seat cover for this tractor.
is there an aftermarket company that does?
2)i already have 1 regret and that is that i didnt order the self-leveling bucket when i bought the tractor.
what are my options?
3)i want to add the rear wiper and the dealer wants $260.00 for the kit which seems pricey
is there a vendor that yall like thats fair on his pricing?
4)does the clutch engagement wear in as you break it in?
my clutch seems very abrupt.
5)i saw someone added a spring and washer setup for loader retention but i cant locate that thread now.
is this a must?
thanks everyone for your help:thumbsup:

1)kubota doesnt make a seat cover for this tractor.
is there an aftermarket company that does? Not that I am aware of, but it sure needs one, I've considered a generic slip over for a truck or car seat.
2)i already have 1 regret and that is that i didnt order the self-leveling bucket when i bought the tractor.
what are my options? I'm sure it can be installed by the dealer, but I'm sure it's a bit pricey, I didn't need one, so price?
3)i want to add the rear wiper and the dealer wants $260.00 for the kit which seems pricey. I'm in the same boat, I didn't get one and won't pay the money it would take to get it. I learned my lesson and got it on my 5740HSTC though.
is there a vendor that yall like thats fair on his pricing? Messick's is reasonable on prices.
4)does the clutch engagement wear in as you break it in?
my clutch seems very abrupt. Our hydraulic clutch is the same now as the day we bought it about five years ago, nature of the beast I am told, you'll adjust to it.
5)i saw someone added a spring and washer setup for loader retention but i cant locate that thread now. ovrszd came up with that, I put them on our L5740, but havent't gotten around to it on the M8540 and not had any problems. http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/...ubotas-reply-fel-safety-latch.html?highlight=

I need to get around to that, maybe this winter when things slow down.
