Hello all, I've been enjoying my L2501 and have about 20 hours on it now. I might be in the market to add a rear remote and a hydraulic cylinder when I take it in for the 50 hour service. I use the box blade a LOT, but still need to improve my skills...a LOT. Even more than *gasp* my...

Accidentally ran the truck battery down today... Kubota to the rescue! Does this meet approval of the jump start experts on here?

Just bought a new welder and learning to weld. Thinking a fun and useful project would be to make some gauge wheels for my landscape rake. Looking for some cheap wheel forks or advice on best/easiest way to fabricate them.

My ground is soft, fine sand. I've got a flat area near the front, rest of it is sloped. My tractor is likely better suited for my land than your's and visa versa.

Looking to get a landscape rake. Does anyone have experience with Tractor Supply's County Line rake? Land Pride has an astronomical price. I love me some Land Pride, but dang! Everything Attachments is a little less than the Land Pride but still about 250 bucks more than the County Line. The...

This touches pretty well on my own thoughts. I just spend my third weekend with my new L2501. Thoroughly enjoying it. There's a lot of choice out there. I wrote up a review on why I went with the L2501 here...

How would these compare in ability to just dig a hole? Not a trench or moving around doing myriad work tasks...Just a single hole.

Well there it is - took delivery yesterday. With the fluid in the rears and the upgraded box blade on the back (about 430 lbs), tires stayed fully intact with the ground while lifting a full bucket of sandy gravel (about as much as the loader would lift). I was a little annoyed that the...

Well, thanks for all the useful information on this forum guys! My search has ended and the purchase has been made. I will say that I strongly considered Kioti and Deere. At one point, I was 90 percent sure I was going to buy a tractor of each of these three brands. I was initially set on a...

I'm looking into wheel weights for a Kubota L2501. The part number at Messicks is: WEIGHT,REAR WHEEL 99281-15110. Found at: Kubota L251H Parts Diagrams I can't figure out what the weight of the weight is. Also, is this for a set, or a single weight?

What do you all think about these grapples for an L2501? The SGC0660 is 250 lbs (60 inches wide) The SGC1060 is 390 lbs (60 inches wide) Kubota rates the SGC1060 for the L3301, but not the L2501. Not sure why since they both have the same lift capacity. I like the tines on the SGC1060...

The topic of the gas tank location came up in another thread and I was curious what y'all's experience has been. Most of the newer tractors have tanks on the back. Kubota L Series still has it under the hood. So does Deere in most of their small tractors. I feel like under the hood is a...

Getting ever closer to my purchase, trying to decide on a grapple. My final contenders are: 1.) EA 55 inch Wicked Root Rake Grapple (clam shell type) $1850.00 2.) EA 50 inch Wicked Root Grapple (top lid type with flat bottom) $1580.00 3.) LP SG0660 (clam shell type) $1700.00 I'll be using...

Anybody remember enough physics to calculate the distance of the centroid of beat juice (or any other fluid) in a 3/4 full tire? Assume an R4 tire for an L2501. Curious how much lower it would be compared to wheel weights centered on the axle. Just looking at a sketch, I am guestimating it...

I am planning to buy a new tractor in a couple months. Been vacillating between Kubota and Kioti, but it's a tough decision. Kioti resale value is harder to evaluate since there are not as many used Kiotis on the market. With Kubota, however, it looks like the cheaper the new tractor...
