Bought a used Alamo74 cutter. One of the features is dual rear laminated, bushhog type trailing height gauge wheels. It’s also has the roller bar. The roller bar has some perforations from rust where it was sitting on the ground. Question, do you really need the roller bar with wheels? Patch...

Got a 2021 little truck for the farm, a Honda Ridgeline. Researching care and feeding found this Honda product. https://images.app.goo.gl/Hu6XCPEKWxEwGFtC9 Can see many useful applications of this product around the farm. Layer of capsaicin makes chewing unpleasant.

Been nice spring like weather for several days and really catching up on some outdoor projects including some that included clearing trees. Rain expected to start in a few hours so time to deal with a big stump from a large oak that fell last spring beside an animal shed. Have worked off and on...

Ideas on building a trailer stake pocket spare tire carrier? Store bought types look too flimsy. Want to be able to carry tire inboard or outboard. Bolt or clamp with lug nut size fastener to not rattle or easy to walk off. Ideas please.

Floor jack is a necessary tool for repairs and maintenance. Flat concrete is a precious commodity so most of my maintenance is outside on a gravel driveway. Recently bought a Harbor Freight Badlands off-road jack. Surprised by the features, fit and finish. Bigger tires roll instead of drag...

Picked up a slightly used 10kW Winco pto generator. Cute little rascal. This will be a backup to a backup 240v option. Going to mount on a to-be-built 3pt hitch. Have room in the barn for storage but when deployed for use at either cabin it and the tractor will be outside. Couple of...

Out this morning plucking trees out flower beds, along the roads and walls. This year black walnuts 4-6’ tall have longer than that tap roots that came out after last night storms. The two grippers have tab and slot near the tips that gives them strength when closed. Excavate only with...

Have 16.5 x 10.0 R4 tires on the front of the M59. Replaced the tires in 2017 with Carlisle Ultra Guard Industrial Tire -10-16.5 https://a.co/d/8mDZL6t Significant improvements in traction with a deep tread and heavy tire. Over twice the weight and ply of the OEM tire. While trying to grub...

For the past few year’s particularly under load hear what sounds like an exhaust system leak. Maybe getting worse? Exhaust system is readily accessible by raising the hood and removing the side panel. Inspection of manifold, turbo, tubing, muffler, flanges can’t feel or see any evidence of...

Had a sneaky limb push up the exhaust pipe while pilling brush with the grapple. Enough to tear a quarter size hole in the pipe where a support strap was welded. The way the exhaust system is made really need the support for vibration and operation. Got a 2” SS band exhaust clamp. $10 from...

Upgraded the backhoe for better maybe safer use on our farm. Hillsides, creeks, ponds, woods, road and utilities maintenance. Don’t need to dig that high most of the time. Working on slopes, soft ground the the taller wider pads help. Rubber grippers for hard surfaces. Cleats for soft. Guards...

2013 Kubota M59 with 1460 hours. First coolant change. Old coolant had some whitish color while flushing. Did several plain water flushes bring each up to operating temperature and getting diminishing color. Inspection of core looking down from radiator cap opening looked clear. Cleaned overflow...

In paint shop. Combination rubber pads and cleats. 16x18”, about 5” height advantage over OEM. Combo advantageous on our hillside, falling water farm. Terrain soft to rock on a slope.

Wanting similar guards like was on the M59. Rocks or inadvertent bucket strike can damage the rod. The added steps sure help climbing up and down for us older folks. This is the M59 cylinder guards. Using materials on hand so they are thicker metal than needed. 5” square tubing, 17” long...

Had red oak come down this week. 34” diameter 120’+ tall. Decades of leaning, weathering storms finally succumbing force of gravity. Age like gravity wins in the end. Jacked up the corner of the steer/goat shed about 4’. Have 50 years experience cutting trees. It is a risk complicated by...

Working slowly on making an attachment that will allow the backhoe to share attachments with the M59 with KX- miniX attachments. Most will probably be too big but hoping the ripper could help with some delicate maintenance. Also there is wide assortment of tools and cheap ears for other tools...

Pulling privet and Russian olive. Tight between trees and rocks in the backyard. Make a pile then haul to gully. Carrying this way is easier thru gates and narrow driveway. Lack of hirable labor and age have to engineer cyborg solutions. Good test of skills and balance. Shouldn’t be this much...

Love my new ripper for the Kubota M59. Kubota KX-QA is great. Only problem is the ripper wants to lay on its side. Too heavy to wrestle. Chunk of wood under the QA mount ears helps balance it so you can couple it has worked thus far and not a bad option. Made some shackle mounts to weld above...

Selectilth, 2 speed shift. Stored mostly inside most of its life. More dusty than rusty. Used yearly till a few years ago. $2,200 Knoxville, Tennessee

Anyone have experience using this type of adapter? This one made by ATI is heavy duty, well braced and expert welded. The SSQA pin boxes are extra thick to take excavator power. Got it use on M59 TLB. There are places I can’t reach with the FEL. Man basket, polesaw, intimidator maybe grapple...

Anyone figured out how to easily lube the cables from the handle to the FEL control valve? Sticky below 30 degrees. Technique and best product? Motorcycle cable lube and injection tool? 10 years old and 1400+hours.

Previous owner had mangled the OEM step on stabilizer arm. Added two steps to cylinder rod guard to help climb up and down.

Added a hand control lever to work in concert with the existing foot pedal on the M59 backhoe. Also added some tubing/grating to the pedal to better fit my brogans. Can use either or together. Lever was easy by welding a 3/8” hold down coupling nut to the pedal swivel/hinge block. Pedal...

Gathering materials to improve the pads. 2.5X more area. 4X heavier, 82#. 5.5” longer to the outside. 6” taller on rubber pads. Hopefully kinder on hard surfaces and lawn. OEM rubber pads engages 1.5” before steel cheats on soft or steep ground. In paint shop. Paint cost and much as the...

M59 backhoe attachment came with a 24” pin on bucket with hydraulic thumb. Looked for years to find a 12” bucket used. Kubota QA buckets are a little more common but still rare and have to buy $1,000 adapter. New M62s and L47s have three options. Pin on. Kubota M59 type QA or Kubota excavator...

Bought new HD 12 ply, extra deep thread skid steer tires to replace the worn and one slow leaking OEM tires on the Kubota front M59 a few years ago. Great improvement in traction especially loader work. Also pumped in about a half gallon of Gempler’s bulletproof tire sealant in each tire for...

Two modifications ideas considering for 12”backhoe bucket. First, sharpen and cut serrations in the side cutters to better cut/saw/break thru tree roots. Some single tooth rippers have this feature. Side cutters are AR400 1/2” steel. Second, weld a swinging 1” D-ring to top rear of the...

Need one to buy or build.

Had this used 5’ fail mower delivered yesterday. Paid $1,200. Older model but in nearly new condition. Trying to find out more information about the machine. First experience with flail mowing. Comparing to 6’ Woods rear 3pt finish mower behind a Kubota B26. The flail mower is; 1) Heavier...

https://www.messicks.com/part/CR10/comfort-ride-accumulator-kit-20-60hp?mc_cid=eabb6d6063&mc_eid=0b9f1c9d8a Adding a Kubota soft ride was one of the best modifications to the M59. Carrying logs and limbs so much smoother. Plays well with grapple. Anyone putting them on 20-30hp tractors?

Been using them for thirty years. Many pros and cons but are my preferred QC for loader 3rd function. Many tools available to help making connections. This is about Xboom coupler QC Mate Available as a complete tool for about $100. Or now can buy just the specialty jaws and use your...

Used on Kubota B26 plucking trees and brush. Some trees removed along the wooded driveway 20’ tall. Privet and Russian olives clumps easily pulled up. Small tractor gives great maneuverability and sight near fences and buildings. Easily pulled trees growing in the blueberry patch with surgical...

Bought an old, well worn 5’ brown tree cutter. Gearbox and stump jumper serviceable. Someone has tried to make blades from bush hog blades makes it very unbalanced. New blades are $165 each. Need four. Bolts are another $200. Only have $300 in it so far. May be worth only scrap. Has anyone...

Doing general maintenance on the little Kubota B26 and finish mower this afternoon. Greasing, sharpening and checking tire air pressure. The usual loss of a few pounds pressure over a years time. Checking the last tire, left rear, which has methanol ballast. Grabbed the metal cap and began...

New to me 286 bushog. $1,300. Some improvements over the past 25 years compared to my old one. Hard to find good used equipment. New stuff is getting expensive fast. Anybody found a good rebuild for the front skids? My old one didn’t have bolt-on replaceable skids. This one is only 1/4” thick...

Been wanting to build something like this for sometime. Now there are several brands available. Probably cost and time more efficient to buy a quality and time tested one like LimbSaw. What’s the fun in that? Plus some other features I would like to explore. Just getting started so haven’t got...

Pipe Thread Gauge BSPT British Standard Pipe Tapered Thread Identifier - Sizes 1/8-3/4 Pipe Thread Gauge BSPT British Standard Pipe Tapered Thread Identifier - Sizes 1/8-3/4: Amazon.com: Industrial & Scientific First time seeing this for British pipe threads often found on Kubotas. I have been...

Hadn’t used the Kubota M59 for a few weeks and only had a few killing Frosts lately. Preheated twice and fired up. Several dozen red oak acorns shot out of the side exhaust, blunder bust style! First I seen them use inside the exhaust. Checked under the hood and found a nest of grass and shedded...

Made 1981 for 2wd tractors. Pulled a lot timber out of the woods and trip bucket manure FEL stall cleaning. Used an old kitchen counter water heater tank, scrap steel and hand mixed concrete. Very handy at the time but use with 4wd tractors is none. Used as outdoor anvil or weight for proof...

Like the no-spill diesel fuel containers. Even my wife can fuel the little tractor but doesn’t like to. The bad part was holding the button down. 5gallons took 2-3 minutes to drain. Added these vents. ZOOYL Gas Can Vent Caps Retrofit Kit 6 Packs, Enhances Flow for Faster Refills, Universal...

What’s the best oil pump or technique to get oil from from bulk 5 gallon pails into tractors? Gear and transmission/hydraulic oil. Been pouring using funnels. Sometimes transferring to smaller containers.

Hitching up equipment, maintaining equipment or fabrication and repair having the the right tools sure helps. Have various pinch poles, crowbars and levers like most farms. Tried a small indexing head lever for the shop and was quickly a favorite go to tool. Bought the larger 48” to keep in the...

Bought a 20’ steel bridge this weekend. Doll up with some steel implement wheels, some base steel paint and set across the creek. Like I need another project.

https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/327536802334191/ Woods bb72 rotary cutter powered with 30hp Diesel engine.

Saw this at Bear Den campground off the Blue Ridge parkway. They are building and refurbishing new sites. Equipment parked beside us so felt at home. Level strapped to front guard L6060 with topNtilt yardbox.

Ordered a 3/8” full back ssqa plate late Monday, end of Titan Attachments Memorial Day sale for a project. Got here 10am Wednesday morning. Shipping weight 108#. $119. Box had just a few tears and the plate was plastic wrapped. No damage. Corners were welded. Nicely made. Took time grind a...

Put these on the front of a Kubota M59. Immediately improved traction. Heavy sidewall and rim guard helps with loader operations. Twice as heavy as OEM tires. Several years now and doing well. Tractor stays mostly in 4wd and scuffing off-road is minimal. Only problem is they are difficult to...

While browsing the local scrapyard for fun bought some short drops of stainless steel tubing. Back home cut some 2” rings of 5.5” OD, 1/8” wall tubing. Drilled a 1/2” hole for the lamp bolt. TSC has these lamps for $7. Had to slightly oval the hole and temporarily removed one lens for the lamp...

Forklift platforms are common and used safely everyday. For tractors the the hazards of off road and usually dangerous operation of construction, maintenance or tree work are many. Telehander type baskets closest comparison. Probably a good argument to never have personal on a tractor FEL...

Bought this flat belt saw at the scrap yard for $46. Simple angle iron frame with hinged table to crosscut firewood or posts. Poured bearings have no play and rotate. Better now with a few pumps of new grease. 28” blade pretty rusty. People spend that much on blades for decorating or cut up for...

This might be a trend on newer tractors. My 2016 Kubota B26 ssqa factory HD bucket has flared lips to help center the tractor ssqa mount when attaching. Of the dozen of other attachments from various manufacturers it’s the only one I have ever seen to have this feature. Have great line on sight...

The differential lock lever on the Kubota’s are rather simple compared to other tractors or equipment. Coupled with often muddy shoes a little lacking. When needing to engage one is usually preoccupied with competing operations or hazards. Spent hours thinking about different ways to improve...

Best idea or types of hooks for backhoe buckets? Hole or slots in the side cutters for Clevis or chain? Finally got around to welding a 3/8” chain hook like has been on several older buckets I’ve had. Don’t use much but very handy sometimes. Base welded a little ways up on the wear strip.

One of the best retirement jobs we did was to add a deck all along the back of the house. 48’ long, 13-14’ wide, mostly covered. Don’t like wood outside steps so bought steel and concrete used stair section from hotel demolition to install. Time changes plans. Had to spend time caregiving...

The spring house was crushed from tornado tree damage this summer. The spring was the water source and refrigerator for the 1000acre land grant over 250 years ago. It was rebuilt ~80 years ago with mostly white oak, rock and concrete. Currently supplies water to three houses and farm. Have done...

Bought this NOS off eBay for $47. 210psi precharge on one bulb. The other bulb has plastic mounting cover over stamped info. Quicke is a Denmark brand loader manufacturer? My idea is to use this on a Kubota B26 loader. Anyone tried this on a scut? Used this brand of accessory?

Recently retrofitted a Kubota Soft Ride (KSR) system to fit a M59 loader. Nice upgrade and would highly recommend this option if available. Greatly reduces stress while carrying loads. Added a permanent pressure gauge at the same time. Anyone else monitoring their loader lift pressure during...

The B26 with the rear discharge finish mower going reverse is an excellent leaf blower/mulcher for the yard and gravel driveway. Only problem is having to drive in plume of dust. Doesn’t work near as well going forward. Decided to wash off using a garden hose and brush with wash and wax...

BIL noted the lack of a vent on the rear of his tractor rear axle near dipstick and threaded fill port. My tractors have a rubber or plastic crooked neck to vent the hydraulic reservoir. Checked with local Kubota dealer service department and they could not find one. Ask their mechanic and he...

Like many I use my tractor grapples often to help keep up my property. Recent EF0 tornado bounced around and left us much tree damage. Several piles and over 100 trips to one gully. Lots of trees and tree tops that need to be cut up into manageable pieces. A lot of cut, clear and repeat. When...

We generate a tremendous amount of brush. 140 acre Tennessee foothills farm with about 40 acres cleared. 1/2 mile driveway thru the woods with miles of other trails. Much brush from keeping the roads, pastures and fields cleared. Have done some burn piles. Getting harder with permits and...

Interested how folks are cleaning their spark arrester mufflers Owners manual says every 250 hours. 2016 B26 has a simple cone screen attached to the tailpipe with one screw. Cleaned it a couple of times. The screen being about 20-30% plugged. The screen was an option (~$70) and I guess was...

5” of rain in a couple of hours last evening. Good gully washer. 20-25 miles any direction no rain. Very little washout in 0.5 mile main driveway, 0.3 secondary and miles of dirt. Creek waterfall sounds good from the back porch. Land plane has made more difference in the last 3 years than...

Did the first 400 hour change of front axle UDT oil. Surprised how dark and the fine metallic sheen of the old oil. Hope the gears have polished their contact patches. Put back 5qts Lucas 75W-90 synthetic gear oil. See how it does for the next 400 hours. Can tell the difference in gear sounds...

Needed more grill guard protection for brush, tree, dirt and stump work I tackle. With help of TBN members made improvements. The bonnet protector hinged to front guard was an option no longer available. Luckily found a NOS from Messicks. Had to source some of the hinge hardware also, no big...

While my brother in-law was bush hogging lost clutch. Making passes pushed in the clutch to roll back a bit and lost clutch. No noise and everything else works. Intelapanel says the gst transmission goes thru the gears. No forward or backward travel. No pto. He had just changed UDT and filters...

Coming up on 400 hour service. B26, 2016 model. Noted some external leakage at fill plug and dipstick after mowing for several hours at a time. Not much but enough to attract dirt. A friend with an earlier B26 had a worse problem caused by rubber elbow on the suction side of pump. Air was being...

Owners of L39 using Everything Attachments Wicked grapple? Up to 55hp. Or their heavier utility grapple for up to 75hp? L39 FEL is strong for its size.

While working on M59 a few days ago noted oil spray on the side. The dipstick was missing. Probably got dislodged during some recent brush moving. Looked for it but no go. Had the dealer order one and within a day got it. $ouch$ In >50 years and dozens of tractors this is only the 2nd time...

Using skid steer grapple I bought about 25 years ago on a M59. There seems to be excessive play in the mounting. Can’t see damage on the tractor or grapple side. Don’t note excessive wear. At the shop I could slide 1/4” plates between the lower tractor hitch and grapple tab. I also could put a...

Past several years the sheet metal belt guards mounting holes were fatigue cracking. One hole completely gone. Two top holes on two guards. From some scrap 1/4” plate cut some pieces to weld on top. Cut the hole/slot with the plasma cutter using 911motorsports.com templates. Perfect match...

Details on fabrication under general topics, customization. Share with my orange friends. Several ground defense plates added. Gas and oil for chainsaw. Container also carries saw wrench, round and flat files, sharpening guide, extra chain, and two wedges. Multi tool hammer wrench...

Bought a used M59 about three years ago. Idea was to replace my aging ag tractors and backhoe. No end to the comparison between R1 and R4 tires. Complicated by the tremendous lift strength of the FEL. 1000 hours had worn the fronts. I first grooved the worn tires to improve traction in mud and...

Gleaned lots of good ideas from this site. Building what hopefully works for me given skills and materials around most farm shops. Going to document as it evolves. Comments welcome. Plan is to attach a steel tube to the loader upright. 6x6x26.5” drop from scrapyard. Chain hook and drain holes...

Used the B26 and rear finish mower to blow leaves and chop up leaves on a 1/2 mile driveway. Noted black exhaust smoke when under load. At the shop stopped to check air cleaner. Packed with small acorns around the filter. Luckily no damage. Tied new dryer sheets in engine compartments of the...

Hydraulic Quick Coupler Connect Under Pressure Clamp XBoom Coupler QC-Mate 12-in | eBay Found this on eBay Made this years ago.

Tried before to get an option for the M59 front grill armor, a bonnet cover. Was told by local dealer they were no longer available. Thanks to a knowledgeable TBN contributor (rScotty) tried again thru Messicks. They had one, maybe the last one, at one of their stores. $230 +$30 shipping. It...

Noted a broken lower bucket pin while greasing the tractor. 1183hrs. Half the pin that has the grease zerk was gone. Several of the pins close to the bucket have considerable slop. Previous owner wasn’t friends with a grease gun. Question is there better sources for pins/bushings other than Kubota?

There have been good discussions on HST operations, fluids, noise and filters. Has anyone installed a temperature gauge? Best placement for the temperature probe? Love the operation of both M59 and B26 tractors. Probably don’t let them warm up enough in cold weather before use. Concern of...

Handy as pocket on a shirt. Indusco weld on hooks on Amazon are hard to beat. 3 ton, $20ea. Look for “used” on Amazon. Might be warehouse dirty? Or not in original bag but certainly good enough to weld or use at a cost savings. Have recently got 1” weld on D-ring for $7.11 delivered.

Hard to secure a sprayer in a bucket particularly on hilly ground. Tried old tire or blocks in the bucket to support the sprayer to strap it down. A hitch carrier in a bucket mounted receiver hitch works great. Chain/chainsaw holder makes for a convenient spray wand Scabbard.

3x6” tubing, 1/2” plate, 1/2” quarry screen, 3/8” chain hooks and 1” D-ring. The original guard went from 38 to 108#’s. Boxing the original guard metal and bends adds strength. This is the fifth guard I have done. Have had the tractor for about 2 years. Gathering materials from the scrapyard...

Often raise the loader to better access the engine for maintenance. Cleaning radiator/screen often required during mowing season. (Radiator Genie tools are the best!) Had a redwood 4x4 that was light and strong for a prop. The M59 has a well thought out metal U-shaped cylinder prop attached to...

I have only seen pictures of this accessory. Heavy metal hood/nose protector that hinges to the grill guard. Unique to the M59? Useful accessory? Worth buying ($225)or fabricating? Reviews please? Had a stump root come over the grill guard into my hood a while back. Able to bend, weld and...

Have a hydraulic leak on the right oil cooler connection on B26. Oil/dirt building up on radiator screen and around area. Looks like an external spring clip holds two metal tube fittings together. Suspect a bad O-ring between the two. This is where a parts manual would be helpful. Is this common...

When I bought my first new truck, 1996 Dodge diesel, the dealer gave a year subscription to “Turbo Diesel Register”. Joined the local group of diesel heads who know a lot more than I. One meeting was at a local high end commercial/industrial diesel shop for a weekend tour. Most of the truck guys...

Been playing around with grooving R4 tires. First tried worn M59 front tires. This helped with loader work and hilly lawn and pasture. Since replaced with high ply extra deep tread R4 Next R4 on B26. 4” of snow on my driveway would stop my old B20. These worked good in snow. Gravel will...

Bought a miller 211 mig about 10 years ago and just love it compared to stick welding for 98% of what I do. On any welder the ground wire and clamp are marginally acceptable. First thing I did was to double the size (gauge), length of the cable and improve the grounding clamp. Next change from...

We have tried many different machines to maintain our hilly, wooded property. We used a Kubota B20 and 6’ finish mowers for over 20 years. Upgraded to B26 a few years ago. Better in most all aspects. Installed 2” rear wheel spacers and ballast to help stability. The Woods RD7200 just turned 20...

Clearing trees is a frequent job. Homemade attachment makes carrying chain and chainsaw convenient and safe. The 5”x5” steel tubing is a nice size for a couple of chains. The threaded bar clamp is not necessary. The rubber appliance foot supports the saw body works the best to stop vibration...

Like many have a shelve full of different brands and types of spray lubricants. While spending several weeks per year on the gulf coast beach in an airstream trailer have tried many to combat corrosion. Local Ace hardware had several brands catering to marine fleets. New to me was a product...

Does the buckets for a Kubota B26 backhoe quick attach compatible with any other backhoe or small excavator? Are bucket hangers/ears the same with any model for DIY? Trying to source or make a root ripper.

Been digging out East Tennessee red clay bank to make space for future garage. Piranha toothbar makes this easy! One to two attempts fills the bucket. 5’ long bottom, high back bucket. Careful but had several spill overs onto the hood. Have seen pictures of an Kubota accessory plate the bolts...

Have a 2013 Kubota M59 tractor loader sold as a landscape model. 3pt hitch but no backhoe. Been looking for BT1200 backhoe attachment. Advice on looking and what would fit is welcome. East Tennessee area.

Have a 1/2 mile gravel driveway that has 330 feet of elevation drop winding thru the East Tennessee woods. Over half is 270 years old wagon trail. Worn and places much like a creek bed. So rough at first no one would spread gravel. Hauled by pickup, then one ton 4x4, 5 ton single axle now...

Disk blades help guide the wire off and keep the spool off the ground when using by hand in tight places. With a wire gripper tied to the hook often can stretch and position with tractor while securing to post. UHMW, brass washers, compression spring and nyloc nut give adjustable tension while...

We had a Kubota B20 that had very awkward parking brake and seatbelt that didn’t get used. Poor design. Wife does most of the mowing with a finish mower except for the really steep stuff. After 20+ years and 3600hrs upgraded to a B26. Much improved overall. Seatbelt is great and gets used. The...

Welded a piranha toothbar onto well worn bucket cutting edge. Used Miller 211 mig, set at max auto set amp, 0.035” solid wire. Original cutting edge 5/8”, new 1/2”. Beveled from wear so fit up not ideal. Took me a little time to try to improve technique. 60” weld. Ran out of wire 6” from end...

My M5030DT is built like a tank. Has front autolocking differential. With hilly East Tennessee makes a huge difference. Hillside mowing, turning uphill and loader operations are greatly enhanced and unnoticed until you try the same with a tractor without it. L3800 and M59 don’t have it. Not...
