I removed the oil filter on my NX5510 and the threaded connecting tube came off with it! I managed to get the old oil filter off the tube without damaging anything, but what is the torque specification for tightening down the connecting tube back into the engine?

There are radically different specifications listed for wheel bolt torque for the NX5510 in the owner's manual versus the shop manual: NX5510 Owner's Manual: Front Wheel = 57-67 ft lbs for the Bolt and 46-54 ft lbs for the Nut. Rear Wheel = 166 ft lbs for both the Bolt and Nut. NX5510 Shop...

These are 6"x20" and made of steel and UHMW (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene).

Here is my new NX 5510 with 24x24 transmission (Land Pride SB2584 Snow Blower). I'll give some updates in the future. So far, no problems.

After two months of reading, researching, viewing, and driving, I ordered a new NX5510 Cab 24X24 with the turf tire option. I have a John Deere 1070 and a 6400 (with loader), both of which are great tractors and have been absolutely bulletproof. The 6400 does the heavy lifting and brush hogging...

Looking for a relatively simple and reliable tractor with at least 45 pto HP for field mowing and snow blowing -- no loader work or back and forth stuff. I like the looks of the NX 5510 Cab with the 24x24 transmission. Does anyone have the NX with this transmission? If yes, what are your...

I am looking for a non-hydro tractor with a cab and turf tires that will fit under a 94 inch doorway. Does Kubota have anything that meets these conditions?

Has anyone bought the new Boomer 54D? If yes, what do you think of the tractor? There are press releases out there and marketing literature, but I cannot find any opinions from real users.

I'm sure this has been answered before, but I could not find it. What is the best way to tell when a kubota tractor was built (e.g., 2003, 2002, ect.).

In my long search for the right utility tractor (so far unsuccessful), I have restricted myself to those with a ROPS and canopy. There is no shortage of ROPSwCanopy models. However, the ROPS is way too high. This is bad for two reasons. First, you cannot fold back the ROPS to get through a...

I understand the meaning of R1 and R4 tires, but what are F3 tires? Are they field, industrial or turf?

I was at the library reading the operators manual for the M9000, and I saw the following: "Creep speed cannot be used for any of the following: 1. Pulling a trailer. 2. Front-loader operation. 3. Earth Moving. 4. Entering or leaving a field. 5. Loading onto and unloading from a truck." It...

I’m getting very close to pulling the trigger on a M9000 low profile. The only question left is whether to go with a manual or hydraulic shuttle. I will not have a FEL attached. I will use it for mowing and doing chores in close quarters. I’m the type of person that keeps a tractor for a...

I noticed the M9000 has an intercooler with its turbo, and lower M turbo models do not. What is an intercooler? Is it necessary, or just something else to go wrong?

I know what a dry clutch is. I know what a wet clutch is. The wet clutch will outlast the dry three time over. When reading about the HST, sometimes I get the impression that it has a dry clutch, other time a wet clutch. If it is not a dry clutch, will it outlast a dry clutch?

I have always thought that direct fuel injection was better than indirect fuel injection. However, reading many threads on the Kubota M9000 (has indirect), the words smooth, powerful, and quiet keep coming up to describe the engine. What are the advantages and disadvantages of direct and...

Price Check: TN70, open station, 16x16 power shuttle, 4X4, 19.5x24 R4 on rear, 10.5x20 R4 on front, horizontal exhaust, arms rests, block heater, grill guard, steel canopy. $28,000.

I have narrowed my search for a 50-60 hp tractor to either JD or NH. I have read threads where JD has a lot more plastic than NH. Plastic fenders do not bother me, but plastic engine or driveline parts seems odd to me. I'll end up getting either an 05 or 25 JD or a TN NH model. How much...

There is a NH dealer close to my farm. I have always been a Kubota/Deere man in the past. I saw a TN70, 12x12 trans, 4x4, canopy, grill guard, with R4 19.5x24 and R4 10.5x20 for $24,750. I liked the looks, and I am tempted. However, there seems to be a lot of chatter on the tractor message...

Okay, no loader work, just normal mowing and a little brush-hogging. What would be the typical life of a dry clutch? 500, 1,000, 1,500 hours or what?

I am in the market for a new 50-60 PTO Hp tractor. I know quite a bit about JD and Kubota, but nothing about NH. Would someone please give me a little background on NH tractors: Where are they made? Are they clones of JD and Kubota, or do they have different strengths and weaknesses? What...

An Ohio dealer gave me a cash price on a new L5030HST (no cab, no attachments) of $22,200 today. Does this sound about right?

I am looking at the Grand L5030. Which transmission (GST or Hydro) will generally last the longest without needing repairs? For example, I know a wet clutch will outlast a dry clutch. Are there any similar generalizations with these transmissions?

What size tractor do I need to comfortably run a Woods RM990 week-in, week-out, year after year without putting a strain on the tractor? Woods says 25 hp at the pto is the minimum. However, I am skeptical of this claim.

I am considering the purchase of a John Deere 5205 (or 5325) with 4WD. I have read many comments that this is an economical tractor. However, my primary concern is “quality.” Is the 5205 a well-built tractor? If I step up to the 5025 series, is the build quality higher, or am I just paying...
