    Adding euro three point hooks

    Been wanting to add these for several years and finally doing it. Ordered the weld on hooks and an assortment of balls from Fit-right hydraulics. I have some class 1 and 2 as well as some nonstandard implements so decided on these. Ordering from Brian was quick and the hooks showed up well...

    Anyone have one of these? Been wanting a canopy that can be installed and removed easily, only want a canopy when mowing so this canopy with the easy mount bracket looked interesting. My concern was that the roof is two pieces put together with double sided tape, but the roof appears very...

    tree/post puller

    Would like to know if one of these would work well on the fel of a Kubota 5740 to pull up to 3" elm and hedge trees. Anything bigger I can saw and spray the stumps but its hard to find those small stumps after being cut. Is there an issue with regrowth on any roots that don't get...

    Box Scraper  Bought a box blade

    In a previous thread I asked about the difference between several Landpride series box blades. Talked to dealer and he told me he had gotten a fairly heavy box in on a trade. The back is straight and clearance under the front seems less than other brands but it is made out of fairly thick...

    Landpride boxblade

    Looking for a boxblade and was wondering if the difference between Landpride's 15 and 25 series was worth the extra money. Box will go on a Kubota L5740 and thinking a 72" width. Three point brackets and end plates are heavier and there is an additional ripper tooth on the 25 series but it only...

    bought a grapple

    Went and looked at grapples again, brought home a Wildkat econo rock bucket grapple. Had looked at their heavy duty one a few weeks back but at 850# it was way to heavy. Went expecting to buy a economy single grapple root grapple but when I found this one I decided to buy it. Not a big fan of...

    Wildkat pallet fork grapple

    Been looking for a brush grapple and noticed Wildkat had a set of adjustable 48" pallet forks with a built in grapple for $1000. I don't have a set of forks yet and was wondering if this setup would be a good compromise or would I still not regret spending the extra $600 and get a set of forks...

    stand up or slide in ramps

    Need a trailer to haul my kubota 5740 and had originally thought about a trailer with 5200 # axles but for a few hundred more I decided to go with a 14000 # 18+2 dovetail (may need to haul broken vehicles) trailer. Leaning towards getting the stand up ramps but was curious what others opinion...

    pallet forks add a grapple

    Saw a grapple that slides onto a set of pallet forks this weekend and was wondering if this arrangement would be a good way of moving brush. Don't own pallet forks but imagine them being handy. Can buy the grapple and pallet forks for around $1400. My question is would this be to much of a...

    push button p.t.o. engagement

    All my tractors have a clutch that engages the pto was curious when using a bushhog type mower if the push button engagement slowly starts the pto turning or is it more like the way an electric clutch on a riding lawn mower kicks in?

    Price Check  new year old tractor price

    Besides getting a; before price increase quote on a tractor, how much less would a person expect to pay if the tractor had been on the lot for a year and a half? I know the tractor would still be considered new but I would think it would still already be considered one or two years old.

    wieght difference between gear and hydro

    I have a thread going on general discussion about 50 hp tractors but have a question that is more specific to a mahindra 5035.

    5035 remote lines routing

    The 5035 that dealer has still has the rear remote lever by the seat but noticed the new ones have the lever on the fender, was wondering how they ran the lines to the back and how they were protected. The fender location looked more convenient as long as the lines are not exposed.
