Look to the left, under your avatar... says you still own a Kubota L3400

Good catch. Just spent 5 min trying to figure out how to change it on the freakin Mobil version of the site on my phone here.....no dice. Will change it when I get home I guess. If I forget, just nag me again about it in a day or two

Yeah and this from a man who put spots on on my deer.

Ya, just a tad. Spec says 250 hp min to have a tractor big enough to support the tongue weight...a whopping 6500 lbs

I went from a 6 foot to a dual 8 hardee cutter, such a big difference. It only has a blade speed around 13,700 but does a nice job of finish cutting , but I keep good blades on it and don't use it for very rough cutting. It weighs 1600 and even on real steep inclines like my dam, it doesn't make the front to lite, but you can tell its on there, however I do run with the loader on but no bucket or anything. Only real complaint I have is that it windrows the cuttings a lot since the spindles counter rotate.

Is the counter rotating spindles the norm with dual spindle cutters or is your different? Do dual spindle cutters have blade overlap or are they just "close"? If they have any overlap, they kinda need to be counter-rotating one way or the other.
