Thanks to everyone for the advice. I appreciate the feedback.

Hello All, I have a M4-071 with the Kubota 3rd function valve. I just acquired a bucket grapple (dual grapple arms). The 3rd function valve has them operating very quickly. Is there any way to reduce the speed of the grapple arms? It seems adding a flow control valve seems to really be the...

I have a new M4 (delux cab) and I am looking to add a radio. looking for recommendations/suggestions for as close to "Plug & Play" as possible. Thanks,

anyone have any thoughts pro/con on this tire type? interesting looking tread. I have used R4 industrial tires on my previous tractors. Thinking this might be a viable option. thanks,

I can rent a bobcat E50 excavator or a Vermeer SC372 stump grinder for the same price at the local rental yard. Which would you recommend for removing stumps that range from 6" to 20". Trees were oak, cherry and mulberry (along the fence line). Thanks,

Hello All, I have an L3901 HST 4wd with 1 rear remote. it has started to push hydraulic fluid (a LOT!!) out of the vent tube whenever I use the rear remote valve. when there is no load, all seems to be good. there was so much fluid, I initially thought a line or fitting had failed. I will...

I have a 1975 Satoh S650 that I am selling/parting out. the tractor runs fine and is in very good condition (barn stored), it does need a carb rebuild. I also have a workshop manual (copied) and a spare motor (out of a Satoh Elk). if anyone is in need of spare parts/tractor, shoot me a PM.

I have an older model bushhog squealer SQ60. I have managed to bend up the a-frame assembly (Homer Simpson moment). I have gotten the two side pieces that mount to the deck and top link straightened back to original shape, but I have broken the support piece that ties those two pieces together...

whats everyones opinion on using wood chips to put down as a temporary surface over a path thru a hayfield? it would be temporary as a realigned road will be built later on, but for the next year or so, i need to have this path usable, but dont want to put stone down as it will become part of...

So I need replacement blades for my older bushhog. tractor supply has the correct blade (length, offset, etc) however the cutting edge is about 3 inches shorter than the original. will this make a difference? I was told the difference was so bushhog wouldn't come after them for copying a part. I...

I replaced my old bushog with another preowned unit. the one I had used a solid bar to the tailwheel from the A frame. the unit I have now has a chain. So, what are the advantages and disadvantage of each? it appears the newer models are all "solid" mounted with a frame piece to the rear of...

I have a farmer that cuts & bales my hayfields. It is a good arraingment, he does the soil tests 2x/yr, and has the fields fetilized based on the tests, and and sprayed for weeds usually 1x/yr. Our crop split works for both of us. I am concerned that he seems to let the hay (orchardgrass/timothy...

looking for input from everyone: I am in need of a larger flatdeck trailer to move a grain truck. I cannot find one anywhere to borrow/rent. the few I have come across are too short. So I was thinking of purchasing a 30ft flatdeck and making it available for rent. I will use it during hay...

I have a 2012 MX5100 HST. It has 1 rear remote and I wanted to add a second. Sounds simple right? I have been to 3 different dealers and have gotten 3 different answers. first said cant do it, second said he could but wouldnt provide any part numbers or pricing, the third said I had to spend $1k...

I have a Kubota MX5100 HST (4wd). I am looking to purchase a box blade and was looking for advice on size. would this tractor be able to pull a 6 ft box blade? the loader is 6 ft and I can dig some pretty good holes with it. I am looking to prep a dirt path to be able to put down gravel and an...

I have an MX5100 HST that has been very reliable. It has developed what seems to be a bearing noise when in mid range or high range. the noise doesnt occur when loaded at lower speeds and not at all in low range. the noise is different from the trans whine. all fluids are changed on schedule...

I have an older 3pt logsplitter with a cross SCD2E valve. the valve has started to weep pretty good from the handle area and the return detent no longer works. Does anyone know of a source for a rebuild kit for this valve? Thanks,

I am reclaiming several acres of our property that have "gone back to nature". i have already cleaned up the old dump piles. (the previous owners drank a LOT of beer, I got about $200 recycling all the old beer cans). At this point there are a bunch of trees to come down, and instead of...

My MX5100 has a third function valve on the FEL. the connectors are Stucchi IRB38. Does anyone have a source where i can get caps and plugs to protect the couplers when not in use? I have a set of Pioneer caps, but they are too big for the male coupler. Thanks,

looking for some input on which pallet forks to buy. I have a choice of 42" versatech or ansung pf46c. my understanding is the versatech has a rating of 2000lbs and the ansung have 4000lb rating. i have a MX5100 and i believe the loader specs are about 2200 lbs. Thanks,

Its time to find a new home for my S650G. we purchased a farm and the acreage requires a much, much larger tractor. the tractor is in good shape, it does need a carb rebuild. I have the workshop manual, the tractor has an auxilay block for remote hydraulics ( I was using a log splitter), and I...

I am doing the 50 hr service on my MX5100 and I cant seem to get the HST filter off. That rascal seems to be on there quite tight. Can I use a hammer and drift against the slots machined into the filter, or does Kubota have a special wrench for this thing? Thanks,

Hello all, I just purchased an MX5100. WOW. great unit, going to put a bunch of hours on it this weekend. I got the R4 tires even though I wanted ag tires because the ag front is 9.5x16. it seems so skinny I am wondering about it digging in making huge ruts especially when the FEL is full of...

I have an MTD garden tractor w/21 hp briggs & stratton engine. tractor runs good except i have to use almost full choke to keep the engine running. It would run at idle without choke for a short while. I noticed that the fuel filter doesnt fill while running and before I look at the carb, I am...

Working on a Sears Craftsman model 917272021 16.5 hp tractor. Unit was running fine and then cut off while the wife was using. (Yea, I know but lets try to stay on track here :):laughing::)) Tractor starts and engine runs fine. When PTO is engaged, and/or clutch engaged, the engine cuts off. I...
