My MF-5711D has a high-capacity bucket really meant for silage movement and similar "soft" loads. What I need is something that won't bend or break if it sees a big tree root or hits a rock! I have an FL3819 loader of that matters in terms of FEL bucket options! TIA, Sid

I have an affordable somewhat entry level 8' Land Plane for my MF-5711D that works well for its intended usage however, it is not a BOX BLADE! I need to get a box blade that will take the abuse my tractor can dish out so, ABSOLUTELY no Tractor Supply, Atwood, etc. level recommendations, please...

Any owners or users have one to comment on? I'm not interested in the EV or "base" models. I don't need >60MPH velocity but, the flatbed looks really nice. I have mixed feelings about the Kubota RTV1140 and JD Gator. Kubota 1140's are also pretty rare around where I live as well and JD seems...

I waffled and never got an EA landplane ordered, thank goodness. Who builds the better landplanes today for reasonable money, not cheap and not expensive? I need appropriate for my Massey 5711D so, construction and design quality matter so I don't tear it up on my farm property or my driveway...

I am specifically looking at this kit: M18 FUEL™ ½” Hammer Drill Driver | Milwaukee Tool The street price is ~$350 for it. I need a solid drill for mild steel and other hard uses on a farm. I have been told the M18 batteries are the best in the business. I am not impressed with the DeWalt...

Everything Attachments no longer carries these so, it is time to look somewhere else. I have a Massey 5711D with a Euro mount loader. I have a Euro-to-SSQA adaptor coming thanks to EA.com so, I thought I could score one of their Skid Steer rock buckets but no joy! 😭 Where should I look for a...

I am getting lost in the specs, prices, and options for a full-size UTV. A $25K model isn't really an option. I have used my friend's cabbed Kubota RTV1100C a lot at my place and find it to be really heavy and low-slung. It also struggles a bit on the sloped ground in addition to sinking to...

My new tractor has a Euro adaptor loader, an FL3819, that I need to use with my pallet forks from the SSQA it has. While I could buy new pallet forks, I think I will be better off with an adaptor since my friend has a bunch of SSQA attachments as well that I might want to use occasionally or...

Looking at a Massey 2860M, a dealer showed me a 2607 (think that was it but, it might have been a 2605 with less Hp) and it looked pretty similar to what I remember from a friend's Massey 255 a long time ago. The Simpson engine is apparently basically a licensed copy of the old Perkins that was...

I own a Kubota L-4600 today. In relatively flat Oklahoma where I grew up, it was a great tractor for chores but, where I am at in Texas is sloped with feral hog wallows hidden in the pasture grass and similar obstacles that are hard to see from the seat. I need something that is stable using a...

Ended up getting a Massey 6711D pending final terms! A little more spendy but, WOW! What a tractor. Brake-N-Go and the cab suspension combined with the Dyna transmission should make this tractor a real joy to use for years to come. I was shopping in East Texas FWIW. The newer loaders with...

The P100 Zetor locally is ~$70K new with loader and cab. Overall it looked like a really good tractor without most of the electronics on CNH and AGCO tractors in a similar size. Does anyone have experience with the large Zetor tractors that can compare and contrast them with a similar size...

New Hollands around me have a terrible reputation for emissions problems in newer tractors. As part of the CNH parent, I'm unsure if any of that reputation applies to the CaseIH brand. I'm sure AGCO has it reputational issues too but, there really aren't enough AGCO products around me to...

The T754 and T654 seem to be reasonably available in my region for $45K~$50K with a cab. The T1104 seems to be a rare creature. How do the larger TYM tractors compare to similar-sized and capacity tractors from the more popular USA brands in common availability? I know the smaller cabbed TYM...

Yanmar tractors seem really nice and would be a good SCUT and CUT tractor for many people but, instead, they seem to have abandoned the USA marketplace. I know Yanmar has sold tractors under different OEM names previously but, those deals seem to have ended. Are they just afraid to compete...

What can anyone tell me about the differences between a Massey 5700S and 5S? Has anyone run one of these Masseys and a CaseIh Maxxum or Vestrum that can comment on the experience? Is a $125K remotely reasonable to purchase one? And any comments from experience with ordering one to be built...

Pre-COVID, I was going to buy a Kubota M5-111 but, COVID hit before it could be delivered and all they got were "chicken coop" tractors which wouldn't work for me. Supply chain shortages and general price gouging due to limited supply and huge demand seems to be subsiding so, I'm back in the...

I am considering a Club Car XRT1550 with the Kubota D722, Club Car XRT1550, or a Kubota RTV-X1120 with its D1105. The XRT1550 has a smaller lower Hp engine but, has more trailering capacity and an aluminum chassis. The RTV-X1120 has a bit more ground speed on asphalt (25 vs 29MPH) and the...

I'm looking for a ~75Hp 4WD drive tractor with a strong loader. I originally was going to buy a Kubota M5-111 but, that ship sailed away 2 years ago and hasn't been seen since. I am not a fan of the John Deere mega-dealership plan and proprietary software in addition to premium pricing. I had...

I want to get a stationary engine, probably a McCormick-Deering but the John Deere options seem to be a lot easier to find along with Fairbanks Morse options. Where should I be looking? The Western Minnesota Threshermen show was a really good experience and while I really like the Steam...

I need a smaller tractor meaning not super heavy that will turn tight for general light duty usage and, if things go well basic transport at tractor shows between where I'm staying and the show itself as I am starting to volunteer some and might need something to pull a small trailer as well...

I'm initially looking at a Fimco 40 gal. 4-Nozzle 3 Point Hitch Sprayer commonly seen at Tractor Supply and similar big box stores. I don't want junk but, I also can't afford $3K for sprayer. I don't want to spend ~$600 on something that won't work in the long run or that is problem prone. I...

My friend and I currently have need of a class1/2 convertible rotary mower that has a 5' cut. He is looking at a 20-series LandPride/Kubota mower right now. Not sure on the cost, with a slip clutch it is likely in the ~$2500 range. I have a Kubota 4600 and he has a smaller Kioti that is ~30HP...

I bought a used LandPride finish 3-point mower and need a PTO shaft for it. Raised, it is 34" from gearbox shaft end to end, and lowered it is 35". I'm assuming I will need to cut anything I buy. Where will I find a reasonable quality PTO shaft that isn't ~$360? I would like the couplers...

I finally have the money to buy my tractor but, it has gone up $8K and does NOT INCLUDE an 11% steel premium from Kubota. I apparently can't order until Feb/March of next year and the earliest delivery date would be Jan 2023! The price today if I could order would be $72K plus 11% for the...

With Texas electricity costing (price capped) $9,000/KWHr :eek: and Natural gas going from $10 to $1,000 per 1,000 cubic feet :eek: IF you were still connected to the electric or natural gas network, the cost of a "Generac" whole house system doesn't seem so significant right now. That is not...

I have a more detailed post in the general forum looking for comparisons of an MF4707 against an M5. I don't know anyone who actually owns or uses a Kubota M5 so, this is a bit of a blind potential purchase for me. I need enough tractor weight for good ground engagement and occasional heavy...

I'm looking at loaders for a 70~90Hp tractor. Different strong opinions suggest one is drastically better than the other? I see Euro loaders being more frequently found on big tractors and large buckets. I assume this is an artifact of the bucket widths more than anything. Is the Euro bucket...

A few non-specific thoughts: John Deere and Kubota dealer support are much better than other options I have sandy and wet loose land to work traction in that ground is important 70Hp is a low as I want to go but, PTO Hp doesn't need to be huge either for mowers and balers (nothing over a 12'...

First, in real terms, there is a bit less than $10K price difference depending on the exact Kubota difference. My most expensive option is replacing a tractor that doesn't do what I need it to! ;) I grew up on BIG JD iron (~150Hp) and currently own a Kubota B2601 and L4600. I'm finding the...

My friend has a Kioti tractor he is going to upgrade and I'm on the fence about keeping my Kubota L4600 with a pending purchase of a MF4707. Local salesmen have recommended Facebook Marketplace but, their help forum doesn't really discuss something of significant value like this and is really...

I'm looking at an open station MF4707 with an FL3615 loader. Is a downward/forward exhaust a good option? My initial thoughts are biased by my more recent years of experience on the Kubota L4600 with its exhaust down low by the nose of the tractor. I have been unable to find any pictures...

I have a friend looking for a nominal 60hp tractor for general farm use. He has a over 100 acres of timber and maintains trails (wide enough for a pickup), ponds, dams, and other similar things with a chipper, rotary mower, and similar implements. He doesn't want something as heavy as a Massey...

I have been seriously shopping the MF4707 but, I think a 57xx for about a $7K 'upcharge' for a similar tractor may be a better choice for me. Massey's website is to say the least, a bit tedious fleshing out differences. Perhaps I missed a good YouTube video but, the one comparing the 4710 to...

I'm looking for a "good" tractor in the 70+hp range with a really strong loader and 3-pt. I grew up on ~150hp John Deere tractors and currently own a Kubota B2601 (love it) and a Kubota L4600 two wheel geared model (worked well in Oklahoma but, sucks here in Texas). I require 4 wheel drive...

.....

How does a Woods RC4 compare to a similar LandPride orange 'bush hog'? Or, what rotary mower - bush hog - shredder do you recommend for a B2601 and what is a reasonable 'street cost' for it? LandPride for me is $1620 with an unknown delivery date and a Woods RC4 is $1200 and two weeks as...

I'm looking for a new tractor in the 70hp~100hp range. I am not PTO HP limited, I am ground engagement and loader limited. I grew up on John Deere and I'm currently surrounded by a single source John Deere dealer network and one big tractor Kubota dealership with several more within a...

I see a lot of mixed comments on 6010 electrodes with DC Inverter welders. I don't understand why I would want to use 6010 over say 6011 and why it seems to be such a controversial topic. Is the Hobart Stickmate 210i compatible with 6010? Why would I want to use it over 6011? TIA, Sid

If you wanted a good grease gun, one that will work with tough zerks that put up a bit of struggle, what would you get? I need one with a fixed neck and a long handle (no pistol grips). I have tried the cheaper options from all the local places, Atwoods, Harbor Freight, WalMart, TSC, etc. I...

Hydraulic Shift Kit for Caroni Flail Mower | Agri Supply 68318 Flail Mower, Rear Flail Mower TM19 | Caroni 3837 Today I own a Kubota L4600 which is ~45Hp to the PTO. I am looking to get a good quality flail that isn't excessively expensive and see a lot of favorable comments about the...

I have used an older cabbed RTV. I found it be slow, like tractor slow. It was a solid rear axle (might have had leaf springs) and too little ground clearance. I was thinking about the Kawasaki Yanmar engine model or one of the Cherry motored gas units but, it looks like the new generation...

I need a smaller tractor bigger than a BX on my 40-acre homestead and out on the farm. The BX's I have use have too little ground clearance, tires are too small for a pasture, and they lack torque to pull any descent grass load mowing my front yard with a 54" deck. Primarily, I'm debating a...

I have a 40 acre property and a brush hog for heavy work with a Kubota L4600, to be replaced at some point in the future with something like a MF4707. Normal residential big box lawn tractors are a waste of money where I mow. My L4600 and brush hog are simply too long and tall to mow...

I need to upgrade from my Kubota L4600. While a great tractor, it just isn't meeting my needs today. I need more loader capacity (~3K#'s) and more 3-pt lift capacity and, the L4600 is too narrow (3-pt) for most of my 3-pt equipment which is class 1&2 compatible. I really like its low fuel use...

Right now I'm mowing my yard, fence line, around barns, corrals, etc. with a Kubota L4600 and a 5' brush hog (rotary cutter). With the canopy, mowing around trees is an issue as well. My property is sandy, sloped and, rough due to ground moles and ferral hogs. :smiley_aafz: I have used my...

I 'need' a tractor with large enough tires not to throw me around while mowing a really rough 'yard' and orchard, corrals, farm building, etc. Due to excessive wetness, sand, and inclines/declines, I really need 4WD. I have a gear drive 2WD L4600 with loader and hard canopy right now and...

Looking for a smaller (phyically) 4WD compact tractor to pair with my L4600 (gear drive 2WD), I was shopping the Kubuto L2501DT interest free 'deal' recently. One of the things the dealer warned me about was frequent clutch changes which run ~$2400. I can see the 150 hour clutch swaps for the...

I am trying to shop online to find a replacement "Tractor Yoke" coupler for my Kubota L4600. The PTO shaft itself is fine and is a fairly heavy "German Lemon" profile tube. The Yokes and Crosses are ~3.0" by my tape measure. Looking online has me confused. I'm pretty sure this is a metric...

What Sicma model is equivalent to the Angsung YJR? What other tillers are similar quality that should be considered? Is the Angsung the 'value leader'? Will it hold up to heavy usage over the 'long haul'? It needs to be able to break ground that has been grass pasture for a long time. I...

I am looking for a ~7' foot disc to disc a badly rutted grass pasture. I have a Kubota 2WD geared L4600 tractor and the pasture is sandy so I am probably traction limited with HP to spare. I am in East Texas FWIW. I can't find anything reasonable locally so I am looking online at the Dirt Dog...

HELP! I have a 3 acre mess at my mother's place to fix. She thought a black berry bush would be neat in the backyard/pasture at her homestead but, it has completely taken over. She is getting older and let it go so, now that one bush has grown into a thicket and it is covered in a thorny...

I can get a 2007 Kubota L4400 2WD with ~350 hours for right $8K plus transportation costs. A 2011 KUBOTA L3800DT 4WD with ~250 hours runs $11,750 plus transportation. A 2012 KUBOTA L3200F with ~30 hours is $8.5K. And finally, a John Deere5055D runs ~$12K with some hours with many specific...

A friend and I are both shopping for a Diesel Utility vehicle for general light farm work. How do people compare the mainstream diesel options in the new or gently used market? We both need something that is 4x4 due to loose soil and steep grades away from the house at my friends place and I...

I'm looking for a 80~100HP tractor to run a loader and for general implement work. I have been looking at the 5xxxE, 5xxxM, and stumbled onto this 6100D: 9F/3R SYNCHRO TRANS DRY CLUTCH, 2WD 18.4X34 R1 TIRES 10.00-16 FRONTS OPEN STATION 2 SCV'S NO AMS NO WEIGHTS NO FENDERS FLANGED AXLES 2...

I'm borrowing a friends tractor and took his backhoe off to use the box blade. After unhooking, I didn't put the arms all the way to the ground when I eased off and it caught the Hydraulic Filter. :( Is there any replacement for a Daedong T2185-38031 that I can get at a NAPA or similar place...
