One of our homes we lived far out in the country, very wooded, area. There were a lot of gray squirrels. If they can get into your home, they will during the winter to raise their young. They will chew through drywall, chew wires, chew anything plastic (tools, fence insulators, etc.), and...

Do any dealers do on site service (coming to your farm) for smaller tractors? My Kubota L6060HSTC threw a code 20 today and won't start. Every time I call the dealer, they want to haul it into the shop, without even sending someone out. I told them it has the box blade and loader on it at the...

Has anyone ever tried to mix river gravel and crushed limestone? I have a bunch of extra river gravel and I though about using it as a temporary base for a section of road between my house and shed until I can afford some #1 base next year. I was installing culvert (15” ads) and ordered 3/4”...

Does anyone know how the hydraulic circuit is supposed to be plumbed when using power beyond and third function on a Grand L (L6060HSTC)? My backhoe keeps leaking at the valve block. When I purchased the tractor, the dealer told me over the phone they were working a problem waiting for the...

Ok, after my tractor being at the dealer for a little over a month, I finally got it back and mostly fixed. I can't say the same for the backhoe, but let's get back to the third function... They put 45 ells on there and created a guard. It actually looks pretty good. So here are some pics...

That's an interesting thought. However, I would have to see if it would impact the connection into the backhoe. The only thing I would worry is it hitting the top of the lift arm at that point, but I think it would clear. If I could pick one up locally that might be a quick temporary fix to...

When using a cat2 implement on my Kubota L6060HSTC, I have found the adjustable lift rod on the right side contacts with the power beyond line. This damaged my power beyond hose last year. I am looking for a way to resolve this so the power beyond hose is not in danger of being contacted by...

What do you all to safely secure keys from kids, visitors, or worse vandals? Currently I have a keyring of my tractor, side by side, truck, trailer, various gates, shed, barn, etc. that I carry around with me. It's rather uncomfortable to carry so many keys all the time. I thought about...

So I have not updated this thread in a great while. Thus far I have used the BH92 backhoe, LA1055 loader (with bucket, forks, and EA grapple), Woods HC60 rotary cutter, and Woods BSM84 7' box blade with the tractor. My greatest pain point has been the BH92. The relief valves started leaking...

So the thing is, this is on the power beyond. So it's not just one cylinder that is on this hose. Everything goes through it I thought. My first Long Farmtrac had the crank on the lift rod. Those are awesome. I ended up moving the lift rod up a notch while allowed the box blade to be lifted...

Today I went to use my box blade which has a category 2 three point. When I raised the three point, the metal pieces on the outside of the adjusting handle on three point lifting rod contacted the power beyond hose and put a huge gash in it. Luckily it did not go through the metal in the hose...

I have two of these I didn’t install when I changed my oil on the 50hr because the other ones were stuck good and looked ok. Inside is 12.65mm Outside is 18.83mm Granted that’s using my crappy Pittsburgh digital caliper from HF but I measured it several times. Don’t have any of the others to...

Ok these are pictures I took before I had a chance to wash it but good enough. I'm not sure why but the resolution was to simply tighten the nut and I had no issues finishing my mowing today. I lost 6 gallons of clear liquid gold known as Super UDT2 and had to take out a small loan to...

So finally got to cutting and about 4 hours in I hit a stump I didn’t see and didn’t hit with the loader. It snagged the third function lines. I knew this was inevitable when I got the tractor. I dumped all the fluid getting back to the barn all up my driveway. Can you all share how you...

I bought ETA-COMP-PF-4848 Inch Compact Tractor Pallet Forks by Everything Attachments 3000 lb capacity For my L6060HSTC. I guarantee the tractor will break before the forks. I picked up 20 rubber mats Saturday at 72# each about 4” not against the back of the forks (couldn’t go in that far)...
