a person I know personally was an executor of his mother's estate and he mishandled it, it was to split everthing with his sister- he spent 18 months in prison

For tractor, storage sheds and air compressors I recommend to get one size bigger that needed for the job!

Alan W.- why doesn't the spreader fit the quick hitch- is it the top hook that does not hook up?

I'm in the market for a 3 point spreader, I have searched this forum and cannot find a post related to my question. My L3400 has a quick hitch on rear and it looks to me if I buy a spreader that the control lever will be too far back to reach while sitting in the seat. Is there an extension made...

look for a used tractor with low hours. A senario I like is to buy from a widow whose husband has passed is a better situation that to buy from someone alive because they may be getting rid of it for a problem. Example- I bought 2009 kubota L3400 4Wd in early 2022 with 372 hours on it with a...

Original poster again- pins came out easy, just a light tap with a 12 OZ ball peen and a 3/4 punch so it pays to keep trractor lubed well!!! Oldstuff

Original poster here with update- parked tractor on level surface and those pins came out with

I went with a tractor innovations for my L3400 last year and love it. Oldstuff

To original poster. I have 3 Reveal Tactacam camers. The Pro model is easiest on batteries. I mount them about 10 feet up in a tree and they are less noticable that way. They send a text picture within 2 or 3 minutes max from time pic was taken, sometimes within 30 seconds.

What other pin on front options are/were available other than bucket, spears and pallet forks. Have a L3400.- any? Thanks- Oldstuff

original poster again- you guys are giving me good additional ideas. 2manyrocks, if you look at my post #11 and click on the blue highlighted print you will see what I am talking about in post #4 of that thread. I guess I will call that a quick attach for the bucket only. Oldstuff

Original poster here- tractor is just a little too long to park in my shed with brush cutter attached. I have measured and if I get a quick attach as shown in this post - Quick attach options - I will detach the bucket and leave it off as I only use it maybe once a year. I also do not need any...

Thanks to All for you help, it will be a couple of weeks before I get to this so I'll spray with some PB Blaster until then. Oldstuff

I have never removed a bucket from a FEL before, I looked it over and am wondering how difficult it is to remove those pins? I guess drive them out with a large punch? Nothing is rusted as tractor has been in a shed for it's life. L3400 from 2009. Thanks- Oldstuff

Look for a 2-13 tractor with low hours, that is what I did

When I read the original post I thought this post could have wriiten by me, my 110 acre hunting land is 150 miles from my home. I have a 1.2 acre food plot to mow the clover and to replant it about every third year. I also have 3 acres of trails through the woods to mow. Also have a 1/4 mile...

I live within 1,000 feet of BNSF rails in northeast Missouri and the traffic on these rails is increasing!

my agent told me that if repair exceeded 80% of car value it would be a total

I agree about the kits being expensive, however- I am totally happy with my tractorinnovations kit for my L3400!

about 25 years ago we cleared some land and had a lot of 2 to 4 inch rocks- I set the rock rake at 45 degreed and raked them into a windrow and another tractor scooped them up in the FEL and dumped them into a gulley. Worked great.

Thanks for your replies, I have actually operated another L3400 with a 5 foot KK and it was no task at all.

I forgot to include I am tilling one acre.

I know similar post have been here before and I did a search related to this issue. Tractor is a 2009 Kubota L3400 extra power, 35.7 HP and 28.5 pto HP, HST with ag tires. Farm is in NE Missouri and the ground is pretty decent- not hard clay. I have looked at KK 60 and 72 inch tillers and the 72...

I will likely purchase a king Kutter 5 ft tiller soon and my Kubota L3400 has a quick attach and am wondering if the pto shaft that comes with the tiller will be long enough. Can anyone help with this? Thanks

I can only tell you I have a 2003 Simplicity ZT, it has been a great and reliable mower. It is only a 44 incher and I mow a 1/2 acre yard.

Thanks K5, that is what I was thinking but wanted to hear another opinion. Oldstuff

I am about to buy a cylinder to add to the rear of my L3400 for my top link, I am looking at other posts here on this site and see some add a check valve and others do not. I use my tractor with a rotary cutter mainly but also have a 7-shank cultivator for putting in my food plot and a rear...

I do not understand why lead shot into the ground is a problem because it was mined from the ground in the first place?

Since others are adding comments for comparison I have a question also. Kubota, 2009 L3400 Extra power HST,engine 35.7 HP, PTO 28.5 HP would you get a 5 ft or 6 ft tiller?

I am pretty sure it is a swamp white oak- I have many many on my farm. https://search.yahoo.com/search?p=swamp+white+oak+leaf+pictures&fr=yfp-t-s&fr2=p%3Afp%2Cm%3Asa%2Cct%3Asa%2Ckt%3Anone&ei=UTF-8&fp=1

I do not see a shifter for low/high, so it as I say above a great tractor but not for using with a tiller. I sold mine in April for $2600, it was mechanically sound, engine replaced in 1988 and mine had great paint and was stored inside.

They are great tractors, I just sold mine in June. I mainly mowed, sprayed and raked rock. Also used a 7 tine cultivator for making food plots. I sold it for exactly what John said- won't go slow enough to operate a tiller.

Yes on the boom pole- I did it for my Priefert 6 foot by 6 foot

Clarification of my terms- Since the Massey 261 is 60 HP I assume the PTO shaft is a Category 2, would this be correct? Oldstuff

Original poster here, I just realized I for got to ask what class of PTO would a Massey model 261 have- class 1 or 2. I do not see it on tractor data. Oldstuff

Got it, thanks. Oldstuff

I looked on tractor data and it list a Massey Ferguson model 261 as a class 11/1 3 point setup. I am not familiar with a multi class arrangement- what does this mean?

Thanks wirlybird

For after seeding the harrow will bury the seed to deep for good germination- use a cultipacker

wirlbird, it is a 5 footer- I cannot check myself because tractor is 160 miles away Thanks

I'm in the process of upgrading to a tractor that has a FEL (not quick disconnect) but am trying to determine if it will fit in my shed with a bruch cutter on it. I know the exact distance from the front of the FEL to the holes in the lift arms at the rear and it looks like my brush cutter (King...

M1 garand- I do not understand how your purchase of 1 lot affected the developement from selling lots and building homes? Is it because you could use that lot for an entry/exit from you land and they would find that oblectionable? Oldstuff

I was told by my late friend that worked for the state as a watershed specialist that you want 1/3 of a pond to be 8 feet or more deep to prevent killing the fish in the winter- i see you are in Minnesota. Oldstuff

I HAVE A SUNJOE ALSO AND AM HAPPY WITH IT

My existing tractor (1963 Ford 2000) has had no problems with mice chewing on wiring or hoses and I do have mice. Am looking right now for a newer tractor made between 1998 and 2013. Are any owners of Kubota and New Holland tractors having good luck with no mice/wiring problems with these...

Thanks for the help from all of you guys. I had been looking at TC29 & 30 because I had heard good things about Shibaura. My original thought was to get a Kubota L series due the the framework being a bit heavier than the B series and I wanted to make sure I was keeping with that original...

I am familair with Kubota as far as which models I would want and want to expand my search to include New Holland. I did a search on here and could not find what I am looking for. I am not looking for price comparisons of this brand is better than that brand. I am looking for a New Holland model...

On Tractor Data I see the length of a L2501 Kubota but it does not list the total length with the 525 FEL on it. Does anyone know the actual total length so I can see if it will fit into my shed. Thanks!

I have a very similar sprayer setup, mine is a 25 gallon tank also and is actually designed to go on the back of an ATV but I mount mine in a carryall on back of the tractor. Mine differs from yours in that it does not have a spray bar, it has what I think is called an omni spray head and sprays...

Original poster here, anchoring the pull chain so it was fixed and could not slide around the hitch ball solved the problem. The ground is too wet to till right now so I had some time for innovation, I have a boom pole that was not being used so I unhooked the chain harrow and hooked up the boom...

Got a new 6 ft wide by 5 ft long chain harrow and hooked up to the tractor to test. It was getting real dark so I had limited time and the farm is 150 miles away so I just had a few minutes to try it, I noticed that when I made a sort of tight turn but not extremely tight and the hooks that hold...

I have been doing plots for wildlife since 2004 and the cultipacker is a great tool. When mine was made by a local that makes them I selected to get a tow behind at the recommendation of a friend that has a 3 point and a tow behind cultipacker. This one is 6 foot working area. It was made from...

I am in need of another rim for my 1963 Ford model 2000. When I measured it I measured inside width from bead to bead and it was 10 inches. Now that I am looking for another wheel I am assuming that is how to measure them, because I am seeing 10, 11 and 12 inch rims for sale. My tire size is...

here is a pic of mine hand made bracket that allows me to retain the floating link on my brush cutter. Oldstuff

Since the government is likely to raise the mandatory ethanol % in our gasoline from 10 to 15 % what does this do to us tractor owners of old tractors. For example- I have a 1963 Ford model 2000 4 cyl gas. I have heard that this will be hard on carburators. Is ther an additive to compensate...

Is there such a thing as an electric top link? By this I mean one that is electric (12 volt DC) only or an electric motor driven hydraulic cylinder? Would be helpful on a tractor that has no rear hydraulics. Thanks, Oldstuff

I have already sent an email to King Kutter about this today but have not had a reply yet, thought I would run it by the people here as I really like and respect this site. Tractor is a 1963 Ford model 2000 and the rotary cutter is a King Kutter 5 foot model light weight- works well for what...

I have been keeping an eye out for a cultipacker about 6 foot wide (no less) in order to cover the wheel width of a Ford model 2000 gas engine which is 36 HP. Up until now I had not given what horsepower is needed to pull a cultipacker since I am looking at it as a rolling load and not to much...

I did a search and could not find anything that will match the correct size for me, so, What would be the correct size disk for a Ford model 2000 with 36 engine HP and 31 PTO HP? Thanks, Oldstuff

I have a 1963 Ford 2000 tractor with a gas engine that I use once every 6 to 8 weeks and when I do use it I put anywhere from 2 to 4 hours on it. In between the times I use it I leave the tank full of gas and the gas has had Stabil added. Up until yesterday I have had no trouble starting it...

I have had a 1963 Ford 2000 4 cyl tractor since last fall and all is well, I really like it for what I am doing- mainly mowing with a little rear grader blade work. I want to be ready for replacing points and condenser when the time arrives, however, when I look at tune up kits at Tractor...

I am a first time tractor owner and poster on this site. I want to make sure I get off to a good start by NOT buying a tiller and rotary cutter that is the wrong size for my tractor. First- I need a rotary cutter to mow 2 areas, to mow a one acre food plot of clover that I now have mowed 2...
