    losing lots of water too quickly- help!

    I have a late 70's model L275 Kubota. Lately, I'm losing 2-3 quarts of the water in the radiator after only 1-2 hours of operation. All the loss is through the overflow tube. I have replaced the radiator cap with a new one from Kubota, but the problem persists. I don't know a whole lot about...

    best way to add stability to YM2000?

    I'll soon be buying a YM 2000, rotary cutter, and finish mower. I have some hills and uneven terrain and want to make tractor as stable as possible but not make it so heavy as to mar the ground badly. Between adding 200lbs. of front weights or filling the tires, which would be most advantageous...

    improvements in 2006 Jinma tractors?

    In my research I've heard of many more problems with the Jinma tractors as compared to the Japanese tractors like Yanmar. Anyone have any ideas on whether the 2006 line-up has improved quality and dependability long-term? I like the idea of a 'new' tractor but afraid of less than stellar...

    need help choosing: YM2000 or 1610

    Is there any advantage/disadvantage between these two models? The hp difference is only 5. Size is nearly identical (2000 weighs 165lbs more). Price is only $250 different. The 1610 has 3cyl. vs 2 on the 2000. 2000 is gear-drive, while 1610 is powershift trans. I've heard lots about the...

    Price Check  Price check on B7510HST

    I'm having a devil of a time getting Kubota dealers to give me a price, but the one I have gotten for B7510HST with 60" MMM is $10,575. That's an up-front number , so I assume it could go lower. How does that sound? This is in Georgia.

    3325 being phased out?

    I was curious if anyone knows if Mahindra is discontinuing the 3325? I'm seeing this model advertised for really low prices lately ( less than $10,000) which seems odd for a 35 HP tractor. Most small tractors near 20 HP are more expensive than this. Any thoughts? What I've seen from a Georgia...

    Weight of 3325 too much to mow?

    The weight of a 3325 (3990 lbs.) seems like it is too heavy to finish mow with R4 ag tires. What do you guys think? It wouldn't be a front yard, but still an area I wouldn't want to tear up a whole lot.

    Who makes Lenar tractors?

    Anyone know who makes Lenar? Is it Chinese or Japanese? From all I've read, Chinese tractors make me nervous as to their dependability. If Lenar is Chinese, how does it compare to Jinma? I've read a lot of negatives about Jinma. Price seems to be the Chinese tractors only real positive. Am I...

    weight of YM 2000?

    Anybody know the approximate weight of a YM 2000? I'm thinking of buying one and putting R4 ag tires to be able to finish mow some areas with minimal turf damage. The weight of some compacts like Mahindra and Kioti seems too much. By comparison, Kubotas are very light, maybe too light?

    financing a used tractor

    I'm looking at buying a Yanmar 2000 and wondered if anyone had any suggestions on where I may look to get financing for 60 months. It makes a pretty big difference in the monthly payment from the 48 months I can get from my credit union. I may still get the 48 month, but I'd like to have options...

    Tires  R4 tires for YM 2000?

    Just wondering if anyone knows if you can put R4 industrial tires on a Yanmar. I've been told by a dealer once that he could put turf tires on one. My rationale here is to lessen the damage done by ag tires on some areas I finish mow, but get more traction than turf tires offer for bush-hogging.

    YM 2000-problem of push from implements?

    I'm seriously considering buying a Yanmar 2000 to use for bush-hogging and light box blade work. I've been reading about problems with implements, especially rotary cutters, pushing the tractor forward after the clutch is pushed since the PTO is tranny-driven. Is this a problem with the 2000? If...

    Price Check  Looking for CK 20 price and dealer in AL

    After looking at many compacts, the Kioti still intrigues me. I have seen almost no negative comments about them. I only know of one Kioti dealer in Alabama. Does anyone know of any? Also, I see lots of talk on CK 20's with FEL's, but what should I expect on a price? One online quote I got, from...

    Price Check  Price of a new DX23?

    While I'm waiting for a a response from a local dealer on a DX23, what can I expect to pay? (manual trans, no FEL) A Kubota dealer who sells Case told me that they were getting out of Case because it was so inferior to comparable Kubota models that they just couldn't sell them. Is this true, or...

    Price Check  Price check on TC30?

    I got a quote from dealer in central Alabama of $11, 800 for a new TC30, 4WD, manual trans. I've seen pricing discussions here, but they always involve a FEL. This one is w/o FEL. Are all TC30's 4WD? If not, how much less would a 2WD model be? Lastly, is a TC23DA cheaper than a TC30? I've heard...

    I'm in central Alabama. I've been researching on internet for a while now. I'm having no luck getting internet price quotes from my local Kubota dealers. What kind of price can I expect to pay on a new 7510 (manual trans, no FEL) ? How about a 2630?
