Questions Re ROPs Options and Backhoe on L \'30s Some related questions on the ROPs options for the Grand L '30 series and the new BH90 backhoe. 1. I understand that there are both a folding ROPs and a non-folding ROPs available. The folding is about 91 inches high; the non-folding is about 85...

Top n Tilt on Grand L \'30 Series Usually knowledgeable dealers are giving me inconsistent info on the physical set-up and pricing on TnT. What is clear is that Kubota has a TnT "kit" that lists for $700. Separately, also listed are stackable rear remote outlet/valve/lever kit packages: $600...

Six months ago it was the only site on all the internet that would not recognize carriage returns with a Mac running OS X. Now it recognizes them. Congratulations. Or maybe not. Who knows the reason? There have been a few OS X release levels since then, and I have also switched to the beta...

... (subtitle) Never Underestimate the Omnipotence of a FEL and Coolie Labor. It was June 1. It was cold. It was raining. Again. (Where is global warming when you need it? Obviously hijacked during the Klintoon administration.) Its piddly drainage routes clogged by silt, the Oozama VerBoten...

Anyone else have the dubious pleasure of getting one of these? I got a case of Ehrlichiosis this summer. Like Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain spotted fever, it comes from a tick bite. What a sneaky sucker. You don't even know you have anything until you feel like dying. This particular disease...

When the tractorman is driving his tractor over a swamp at night, taking his two dogs out for their midnight frolic, he often gazes in awe at the glittering sky. And wonders. What are the stars and galaxies made of? What else is out there? Does it bother anyone else that the answer now seems to...

A browse by state feature. To locate equipment close to home.

There are many and ever-recurring threads here about how to fit up a tractor with a toolbox. All these threads miss the obvious: you don't need a toolbox on a tractor. I've proved it. Owned a tractor for two years and never needed a tool for any reason. Here are the specifics for the newbies...

I'd like to make believe that this is a general observation, but we all know what I am referring to. So, to get to the point: I don't think extremely long customization threads are the best presentation of the substantive ideas they contain.....These threads contain some of the most...

Is there such a thing as a hydraulic skidsteer finish mower that could be mounted on FEL arms? Were I to get a new tractor, I would have an ATI skidsteer attachment plate put on the FEL so that I could use skidsteer quick-attach buckets, forks, augurs, hoes, etc. It would seem that one should...

It\'s Rumor Time, boogedy, boogedy . . . . . . boogedy, boogedy, shoot! With apologies to Chubby Checker, its time to start the the rumors of a <font color=orange>Brand New Tractor Series</font color=orange>. Last year at this time it was the first rumors of the JD TEN Series. Today, I was...

Who\'s Got the Most Acreage? I was just reading a thread and clicked on jrpoux's profile. He's got . . . egads. . . 6000 acres! (Texas, naturally.) Does anyone have more than that?

I'm seriously thinking of hitting the road. Vamoosing. Getting out of Dodge. In other words, screwing it..........But I don't yet know where I would settle down, if anywhere, and I wouldn't have much money available.......One idea that seems reasonable is to get a motor home and do a vagabond...

Is there such a thing as a dump trailer that you can tow with a compact tractor that can hold the equivalent of the bed of a large pickup truck?.........I would like to haul several score tons of gravel and dirt onto my property but I don't want to buy or rent or pay for a truck to do that...

Has anyone put an after market seat on a Kubota Grand L? I have become very partial to seats that have arms (which the L doesn't), that can recline (which the L does), and that have a lot of vertical travel (which the L is sort of mediocre at).....Any good or bad experiences or other info would...
