    GC Series - 23 or 25 HP from the same size engine: How do they do that?

    Its really more like 5% difference in HP and 6.5% in GPM. Still not that much, I suppose. But I wonder if it is the gearing ratios that might have more impact.

    GC Series - 23 or 25 HP from the same size engine: How do they do that?

    Yep, with my debris forks on and a few straw bales on the loader, I lost traction from my rear wheels on sorta wet grass. I had to switch to 4-wheel drive to keep moving. So, that ballast thing is a real issue.

    Should I add mulching blades to my 2326 mid-mount mower?

    WAIT! Looking at this, I guess you can't get mulching blades for the 60" 2326. Meaning mulching is not an option. I didn't have that for my Kubota 60" deck either, but i thought I saw where you could add three smaller mulching blades to it. Guess not. Is the point being that since it is a...

    Should I add mulching blades to my 2326 mid-mount mower?

    How much difference do the extra, smaller mulching blades make (four blades rather than two)? I mow about 3 acres and I do not collect grass as I mow.

    Perfect W Rotary Mower with swing arm Model ar-2164 - How to Restore?

    OH, they are Dutch! Excellent. I will write them and see what I can find. And also would be happy to follow up with your dealer in Ontario. I guess such a mower shows up here in KY in order to mow under miles of 4-board fencing on horse farms. But they bought it untested. Now we have to...

    Perfect W Rotary Mower with swing arm Model ar-2164 - How to Restore?

    I volunteer with the Kentucky Humane Society Equine Rescue, and they have obtained an old (how old?) Perfect W AR-2164 rotary mower with swing arm to mow around 4-board fencing posts. It is a beast. I suspect it weighs over 1,000 lbs. It has two hydraulic hoses, which need replaced. There are...

    GC Series - 23 or 25 HP from the same size engine: How do they do that?

    And so it all begs the question: If this is simply tweaks to the same engine, why not pick the optimum tweak for durability and function, and stay there? If my 1715 is tweaked to deliver a couple more horsepower, does that come at the cost of longevity?

    GC Series - 23 or 25 HP from the same size engine: How do they do that?

    From my reading, specs on the engines on the GC MF 23/25 horse tractors are the same. But the higher horse engines run at a couple hundred higher rpm. What all is going on with that? I have a GC1715 (with about 20 hours on it now), so I get that extra couple of horses, but I don't understand...

    My Used GC1715,Warranties and Dealers - What Warranty Will Transfer?

    I bought my 2017 Massey from a Kubota dealer who took it as a trade in but just wanted to turn and unload it. I cannot find out the original dealership where this tractor was purchased. Everything is fine with it, but I want to figure out what warranty might transfer to me, and I would like to...

    Kubota B310 Screw Wood Splitter

    I bought one recently, and have been using it for a few months. While it makes me nervous, it works pretty well on my B7100. I have bound it up once on a large log, and had to use a chain saw to cut it free. Other than that, I have gone through of couple of cords of red oak from a couple of...
