You must feel like the guy in the song with the chorus that goes:

She can punch ahead in any gale
And ride the fishing ground
I often thought how proud I'd be
In a boat like Gideon Brown
In a boat like Gideon Brown

Nice fleet you have, there!
I'm looking forward to some good snow pictures from you this Winter.

Thanks for the info on the fenders. Now the debate with my wife as to whether or not I need them. Her argument may be that now that I have a cab, what is a little mud/snow/ice going to hurt you.

Your more than welcome sir. Glad I could help out. Just tell the wife that you need the fenders to protect all the glass in the cab. It just might work ;)

Sure is! :thumbsup:

Thanks!

Thank you. Well the story is: When I went to buy a new tractor back in 2008 I almost had a Kioti tractor bought until I seen the Kubota 4240 in the Grand L series with the front fenders and all the cool stuff on it and fell in love. That killed the Kioti sale right away because I bought the Kubota. I called that tractor Kioti Killer for that reason. Seeing this is my second Grand L I called it Kioti Killer 2. I think it fits :laughing:

Paul greetings from New Hampshire! What a nice rig!!!!! To all USA members looking for "front fenders" Paul is correct, item is only available thru canada, I got them for my 06' L-4330HSTC, they are a kit, mounting brackets etc., Call a Canadian Kubota Dealer, etc. Paul looking forward to snow???lol

I added a bracket to the rear roof hinge mounts with a flat plate so i could attach a Whelen L31 high intensity strobe for night snow work. I have it set to remove easily come spring/summer as its not needed. Man that is one BRIGHT LED light.

I added 2 switches in the spaces provided next to the wiper switches. Now i just need some chains, and im all set for winter.
