I don't remember. I do know it spins the old Kubota faster than it's turned over in years.

And the correct battery for the 2007 Kubota L3400HST is..................................................group 24. Funny part is, I went and pulled the old battery out, and noticed it had one of those eyes to look in. It showed green. Ended up with a Deka.

I read that the difference between a 24, a 24F, the F is a flat top and the 24R was reverse polarity. I don't remember a flat top....of course I don't remember lots of things anymore.

No shop manual, just the owners manual and all it mentios is 12v, CCA and the like.

I want to get a new battery for my L3400HST. I can't seem to find a definite answer as to size and the tractor is 60 miles away. Most charts say Group 24 but a few say 24F. The tractor was purchased new in 2007 or 2008 and beleive it or not, still has the original battery. Towards thge end of...

The water well at our cabin property is marginal at best. It tests very good for iron, hardness and so forth but since it's use is only on the weekends, it puts out a lot of sand/silt. It makes the water tea colored. Sometimes if we use alot of water in a short time, I can run it out of water...

Just had a disappointing experiance with my new S&W Bodyguard 38. I have always carried IWB in a Milt Sparks VM2 with the kydex clips so I could tuck in my shirt over it. Well in the summer heat, it can get a little hot and sticky where the holster rides aginst my skin. In talking to a guy at...

My cabin property is in Harrison County Ohio and as some may know, is a hotbed of oil and gas activity as of late, primarily the Utica shale play. A few weeks ago a guy contacted me and asked permission to do a servey study of a proposed 30" gas line. The plan is to parallel the existing power...

At last I found a nice cultipacker. :thumbsup: It's a 10' Dunham double roller in pretty good shape. Going to pick it up tomorrow night and take it to my cabin property. Since I have no trailer, a buddy said I could use his as long as it gets returned by Thursday. My worry at this point is...

I hope some one can help out a dummy. I have a 2 row John Deere planter, cut down model 1240, and lost a part. ( Well actually 2 ). The part goes on the rear press wheel adjustment linkage and is used to adjust the planting depth. It is about 1 1/2" long, round and less than 1/4" diameter, and...

I am in the process of building a shooting range. It will be primarily a pistol range with the occassional rlfle round. It sits about 65 yards down a grade from my cabin so richocetts are a concern. So far I set 2 pieces of 4 1/2" well casing 3' in the ground with concrete. They are about 6'...

Is it just me or are the roma's the best tasting tomatos for just eating? Used to think the beef steaks were the best but not any more. I love to keep them in the fridge and grab a few and a salt shaker for a snack. :thumbsup:

Thought I would ask this question here rather than in attachments hoping for a tractor specific rsponse. Looking for folks who have used a "quick hitch" on their L3400. As you 3400 owners know, the rear of these tractors are pretty narrow. My question is not about the merits or lack there of on...

Before I just cut this crap out of the way, thought I would ask here. I am trying to replace a grease zerk in my brand new tillers PTO shaft (it will not take grease) and the big plastic shield around the universal joint is giving me fits. Is ther a way to un-do or un-snap the collar that covers...

I finally pulled the trigger on a new tiller today. After much diliberation between the 60'" and the 72", I bought the 60". It will cover my tracks by a few inchs on either side and will be a bit easier on the tractor. I bought it at Rural King since they were on sale at $1349. :D They prepped...

Wasn't sure the of the best place to ask about game/trail cameras, so I put it here. I am in the market for another camera. I am pretty much sold on the infared type over the flash models. Looking for a no frill, long lasting model. We use our camera alot at our cabin property pointed at the...

I came across a potential deal on a tiller not far from me. It's a Befco T60 series that is very heavy duty and 74" wide. From the pics, it's in like new condition. Here is a link: BEFCO - Products - Rotary tillers - Till-rite T60 My tractor is a Kubota L3400. I know if I had my choice, I would...

Thought I would ask fellow TBNer's if anyone has first hand experience removing the alge stains from roof shingles. I have read many different recipes on how to get them clean. Some say TSP and clorine bleach in anywhere from a 50/50 mix to 25/75 (bleach and water) and a few spoons of TSP per...

Not sure where to post this question, but since it is a project... I am in the process of rebuilding/repainting my Dearborn plow. I got all the parts and new bolts ready to go. The smaller parts were blasted in a small bead blaster and the larger ones were wire brushed the best I could. I did...

Can some one tell me the difference between say a John Deere 494/495 and the same 494/495A? What is the "A"? Is the "A" plateless or something? TIA

Once again I need help. I just picked up a refurbished John Deere 1240 corn planter that has been cut down to a 3pt 2 row unit. The guy did a first rate job on the conversion and placed the drive wheel in the center of the planters. It will move from 28" to 44" on row spacing, has the larger...

Kind of a long story, so I will try to keep it as short as possible. I wanted to bring my tractor home from our cabin property for the winter so it could be used for snow removal and maybe install some rear remotes. I borrow a truck and trailer and head out early in the morning to get it. Also...

Anyone know where farmwithjunk has been? I thought I would post this here since his knowledge helped so much in this section.

Quick question on changing out the fuel filter on an L3400. The manual says the system needs to bleed following the change. I have talked to others that say just slap the new one in and start it up. It appears as though if you let the fuel flow it would fill the bowl as it was being tightened...

Once again, I need some help. I came across a Ferguson #25 disk set in 7.5' (came highly reccommended by FarmWithJunk). The thing was in great shape and stored indoors...so I probably paid a bit too much. Anyway, I get it down to my cabin property any get it hooked up and adjusted and make about...

Picked up a disc set this weekend. It is certainly not the type I was shopping for, but it was close and cheap. It measures about 66" wide and about 110' long. Made by Dunham it is a bit heavier than I thought. :eek: Put my L3400 up on three wheels when I hit a rut while unloading it with the...

I just got a notice from Kubota that my 2 year warranty will expire at the end of next month. I own a L3400HST and have about 70 hours on it. My question is, do I buy the extended warranty or not. Anyone else on the bubble on this issue. BTW...I have had ZERO problems with my machine, but...

Found one with in an hour away on Craigslist this morning for $150. I was off work so I ran up and looked at it. The over all condition was very nice. No broken parts, nothing seemed bent or abused, so I grabbed it. It has something that I can't find any pics of on other plows. In front of both...

Over the weekend on my cabin property, I decided to do some brush mowing. All went well and mowed about 3 hours. I noticed the neighbor was working on a small shed trying to get it ready to slide it about 100 feet and reset it. Another neighbor had his 18hp Deere and CX200 FEL on the job. Of...

I have a chance to pick up a Woods RM306 3 point finish mower for about $250.00. It belongs to a friend and works fine. He is even throwing a few brand new extra parts in the deal. My question is, it has only 2 rear caster wheels and the front is supported by the lower arms. I would think this...

Started to do a little brush mowing last Saturday. It was 93+ degrees and not all that much fun. Well after about 5 laps around a 4 acre field I look back and see my Woods rotary mower a little crooked. I look at the other side and the main pin that attaches to the lower arms is gone. I walk...

Just need some input, both pro and con, of foam in the front tires only. I have a Kubota L3400 with R4 tires. In just 31 hours, I am on my second flat on the fronts. The first time I put Slime in it and all was fine. That was last fall and yesterday as I was brush hogging, it managed to go flat...

Well I got some time this week to try out my new Woods GB65 box-blade. I bought it with the idea of expanding it's role from traditional box-blade work to sod buster/plow work for a few small food plots. Let me explain the plan. I have about a 4-5 acre overgrown field that I used a brush hog to...

I need some ideas on how to reseat a rear tire on it's rim. This is what happened. My new Kubota L3400 had a defective rear tire (out of round). My dealer got it handled through the manufacturer. They came out and installed a new tire about a month ago and I put the tractor back in the barn. I...

Markham Welding is the best! The wife agreed to get me a tooth bar for Christmas so I talked to Melisa at Markham last Friday and got directions on what and how to measure. The tractor is not at my home, but rather my cabin, so I went there over the weekend and got the measurements. Called...

Need some advice on reclaiming a field. The soil is mostly clay and a few rocks. I want to put in a food plot and some pumpkins and such for the wife. This field is about 4 or so acres and has been grown over since I bought the property 15 years ago. Most of the growth was briars and scrap...

I want to buy a RTV900 Worksite but am in no real hurry. I am however a real sucker for the zero percent finance offers. My question is, do you guys think Kubota will increase the offer on RTV's from 24 to 36 months? As I said, no hurry, but I will pull the trigger if/when the offer presents...

This is my first try at posting pics, so there may be a learning curve. :confused: I started this project back in early September. The building is a pole barn, 16x32 with a garage door and all metal siding. A friend and my son did most all of construction, I acted as ground gofer, tool getter...

Hope this question is not overly stupid but here goes. I have a Kubota L3400HST with the 463 loader and am wondering about converting it to Quick-Attach. Is this possible or does it require a different bucket or is there a conversion/adapter to use my existing bucket. Is this something I should...

Thanks to TBN, I have come to the realization I need a box blade. :) My tractor is a Kubota L3400HST. I also have decided not to buy a cheapie and end up regretting it. That said, I do like the looks of the Woods GB series and thought the 60" model would be a good fit. Well I came across a very...

Just got my Quick Hitch from Carter and Sons and it works! I have a Kubota L3400 HST and a Woods BB60 shreader. I liked the fact their system put the connection above the lower arms rather than behind but had concern if the hooks would fit in the "boxed" area of the deck where the captive pins...

This may sound weird to some of you veterns, but I have lost 2 of those "hair pin" type fastners on my new Kubota L3400. Not from the same place and of different sizes. The first one was the seat hinge, next the one that holds the storage leg in place for the FEL, all within the first 15 hours...

At last the day is near. Getting my new tractor Saturday at noon. My dealer had the tractor in stock (still in the crate), but had to get the LA463 FEL. Also getting the Woods BB60X 5' brush cutter and the Kubota 1000lb ballast box. Gonna be tough to sleep to night. This is my first tractor so I...

Going to order my tractor next week and have a few last questions. My choices are between the B3030 and the L3400 (maybe the L3130 if the price isn't too much more). I have read all comparisons here and elsewhere and it seems to come down to the B's bells and whistles or the L's weight and...

Can I get some info on the pro's and con's of loading the rear tires. I am in the final stages of ordering my new Kubota. Going with either the B7800 or B3030. Just getting the loader and bush hog for now. The mowing I need to do is woods trails and general work. If I understand correctly, a...

I think the B7800 is my choice. Went to the local dealer today and spent about an hour and a half. Great salesman answered all questions. They had only one B7800 and it had a FEL and turf tires. It was sold but he let me take it for a spin. I LOVED it. I compared it to the MF 1500 series and the...

In my search for a 4x4 tractor, I stumbled on a MF dealer who has a 2001 MF 1230 with a LandPride loader. It shows 18 hrs and has never been sold. They tell me I would get a 2 year warranty as I would be purchasing it new. It looks as though it has been kept outside as the paint is faded and...

Not sure if this is the right place but here goes. What will kill ALL weeds and briars for a long period of time? I would like to do all my trails (in woods) and driveway. Tried Round-Up, deisel, gas, ect with little success. Thinking of tring some brine water. Any thoughts?

Hi all. Been reading this site for a few weeks now and need some advice. I am looking for a tractor to do brush hog work and driveway maintaince at our cabin. I have looked at about 40 units so far and found one that seems nice and clean. It's a Massey 135 with the 3 cylinder gas engine and...
