L4850 Kubota
About The Right Size Tractor
Model Year: 1991

The only problem noted with this tractor is the transmission is hard to get into 2nd and 4th (or 6 and 8 in high). Once you get it in gear it's okay, but will pop out sometimes. Seems like you can't pull the lever back far enough to get the tractor soldily in gear. Thinking about bending the linkage to see if that will cure my problem.

Pros: Right size.
Cons: No rear hydraulics.
