kubota l4330

After reading advice from various members, I purchased a first Kubota (a cab L4330). It felt strange sitting in a cab model, but no more worries about the darn ground hornets!!! Also, adjusting to the climate control will prove welcome. The L4330 has just under 900 hours on it and seems in good...

I prefer older tractors in good shape and would like a tractor with more HP for the farm. I currently own three Yanmar YM series tractors but plan to thin the herd by at least one Yanmar YM276D and perhaps the Yanmar YM147D. The old Yanmar tractors are wonderful and nearly bulletproof. In the...

Hello all, I’ve used this site for a resource for quite some time. I decided to sign up so I can ask questions I can’t find threads on. Anyway, we have a Kubota L4330, we’d like to add a BH92. I can’t find anything clear about whether the current BH92 will mount to the non-current L4330. I’m...

Anyone know the aftermarket loader options for a Kubota l4330

Hi All, I'm in North Texas, high temps are in the low to mid 90s these days. I was mowing yesterday, 6 foot brush mower on my Kubota L4330. I was in some pretty heavy grass, and I notice that coolant is coming out of the overflow tank, dripping on the ground. The tractor did not overheat, it...

Service schedule says change hydraulic filter every 200 hrs but only change hydraulic oil every 400. Counter guy at dealership said that's not a misprint. So last time, I lost a lot of oil in the process, even though I tilted the tractor sideways to elevate the filter side. Anybody have a...

I have a 2006 L4330 HSTC. I used the tractor for a couple hours yesterday and then parked it. There were no issues with starting the tractor yesterday. This morning, I noticed a degradation of electrical components. First I was able to get the glow plug to turn on, but not crank the starter. The...

Just started with a problem. I start tractor run for a minute shuts off and I hear a clicking before it stops. Then I try again same thing.

Started up normally yesterday, was working, then took a break. Went back to it, tractor crank and crank - but no start. Usually it starts within a second or so, very fast. Did it yesterday, waited a couple hours, started right up. Did it a couple months ago; waited a couple hours, started...

I am in the process of replacing my HST transmission fluid and am attempting to find new metal/rubber gaskets for each of the three drain plugs; 1 large and 2 small. See picture. Respectively the approximate ID/OD are 20/30 and 9/17. The local dealer seems mystified by them and does not have...

Got my tractor stuck (again). Had to leave it yesterday but went back this morning and it initially started. I moved the HST lever to neutral to try to pull it out of the mud. Couldn't get the tractor to start again. I checked the battery with a DVM and it charged. Maybe too high as it was 16...

Looking for advice on tracking down an issue on my L4330 that is progressively getting worse. About 2 weeks ago I noticed that the GST transmission wouldn't go into 12 gear with the shifter at the bottom. Today I go out to do some mowing and with the lever all the way down (suppose to be 12th)...

For no apparent reason my L4330 3 point hitch will not lower, though I have a box blade on it and have adjusted the Lowering Speed Knob full travel either direction multiple times. I have removed the seat to look below and it appears that the Position Control Lever and the Lowering Speed knob...

Just over 1000 hours; fuel is above half full. Ran fine, then shut it off to do some work, went to restart, wouldn't start, no sputter, no smoke, good cranking otherwise. Came back an hour later fiddled with the PTO switch, cranked and started right up. Did some more work, happened again, PTO...

Anyone know what the original battery size is/was for the L4430. Someone put a replacement battery in my tractor and it is too short. The battery keeper bar is too tall. No way for it to hold the battery down as the hardware for the keeper bar is only threaded at the top. Can't screw it down...

I'n changing the transmission fluid in my L4330. The service manual drawing seems to point to multiple drain plugs. I only see the big guy (23MM or is is 24MM wrench required). Where are the other ones. I looks like there may be a drain plug on the inside of the rear wheel hub, I doubt that...

I have left the parking brake on a couple of times while running my tractor. The indicator light does not light up when I depress the brakes. I don't have a WSM for the tractor so I don't know if the bulb is out or there is an adjustment on the pedal itself. The tractor still operates with the...

Purchased a used 2006 L4330 last week. Was cleaning it this morning and found the ashtray. :laughing: Reminds me of when airplanes used to have ashtrays in the arm rest. Do the new models have a cigarette lighter and ashtray?

Found a used L4330HSTC. It is a 2006 model with 1,300 hours on it. The used Kubota with cab is less, but not too much less, than a new Mahindra 2538/2638. It makes me a little worried to consider a 12 year old machine that has no warranty but I am open to considering it. Any...

Hi gang, I've been working on adding 3 rear remotes to my L4330 (see thread in "Hydraulics"). As I'm putting everything back together, I notice that the PTO dash indicator doesn't light, and I assume (didn't actually do a visual) that the PTO is not engaging. I figured I had reversed the...

Hey Guys, I'm looking at used tractors. Between these two models, I'm getting myself confused. The L4400 seems to have more horsepower, but every other catagory the L4330 seems to outperform. This would include overall hydraulic flow, beefier FEL, and the ability to handle a BH92 better. Am...

So, this tractor only has 450 hrs and it always works great. Today I took a break and shut it off and it would not even crank or click when restarting it. Dropped the loader bucket suddenly to jar the tractor and it started right up on the next try. Ran fine until I shut it off again and then...

I have an interesting choice to make between two excellent tractors. Tractor #1 - 2002 Kubota L3710 4x4 with LA681 loader with 66" bucket. Ag tires. 780 hours 2-owners plus me. I've owned for 3 years and put on around 150 hours. Upgraded with canopy, LED lights front / rear, SSQA, electrical...

Hi All, I just scored a like new BH90 Backhoe and subframe that came off of a L4240 tractor. My question concerns the hydraulic hook-up. The backhoe has two lines, one male and one female and are quick disconnect. Additionally there are also two lines with male and female quick disconnects...

2005 L4330 has no rear hydraulics, Does anyone know if I can use the FEL controls, with a hydraulic hose back to the mower. It seems to me, all I need to figure out, is which line will raise the mower. Any thoughts Thanks.

Looking at a l4330 , 2006 with a loader. One owner, looks to be in good shape. 850 hours Asking 18500. Thanks for the help!

I'm trying to track down an issue with my pto gauge not reading when the pto is engaged. It was intermittent for a while and now doesn't work at all. One other problem is that the seat kill switch doesn't kill the tractor with the pto engaged. I've checked the seat switch and it appears to...

Well the day has finally happened. After over a year of non stop searching for the right deal and begging, borrowing and fixing borrowed to keep the property maintained the deed is done. Also came with a 6 ft HOWSE bush hog and a 6ft Woods box blade. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: Just dropped it...

i need tear down diaghram for transmission found piece of gear and is making noise only in 4 wheel

Just bought a used L4330 2007 model. Seems to have quite a lot of vibration at about 1500-1800 RPMs. It's my first HST. Is this normal? Also own L2850 and M4700. If not, someone has suggested that there could be air in Hydro lines. I have the owners manual but I see no solution to removing air...

Hey guys, just sold my L3010 tonight and went to look at an L4330. Was curious what you guys thought. It's a 2005 L4330 with La853 and a bh90 backhoe Hst r4s and 1200 hours. He wants 17,500 does that sound good? I am a little weary on 1200 hours but no leaks and really good condition, few...

Went out to the property today, one to drop off my hog trap/goat transporter cage, the other to see if my L4330 with it's forks would reach my 2nd floor mezzanine in the shop (it does!). However, while showing me the basic controls of the tractor, my BIL lifted then tried to drop the 3PH and it...

I put together the attached spreadsheet to try to find out the best bushhog for me and my L4330 tractor (40 hp/36 PTO). In addition to normal bushhogging operations, I plan to clear out about 30 acres of woods of various types and sizes of underbrush and small trees (up to 3" or so). Looking...

I have a L4330 with about 750 hrs on it. It seems to have excessive gear whine when traveling on the.road, out of 4x4. Lots really. Fluids are good. Book didn't show anything. Does everything in the rear oil from one case or am I missing one? I would really like thoughts on this, making me...

Looked at some land today, it will require a tractor and bushhogger to maintain. He two tractors, L3130, which he wants to keep and a L4330. He is willing to sell the Kubota L4330 GTX with 510.8 hours, FEL, 6' bushhog, box scraper, front forks and augur for $14,500. Good, bad or ugly deal...

Hello everyone, I have a L4330 with the larger loader and for some reason my unit has loosed the lower loader bolts as well as in some of the bolts mushed the threads to the point that the threads have stripped. I do have the additional brackets to support the ability to mount the sub frame...

Hello everyone - I have a 1997 kubota L4330 with 650 hours on it. Tractor was running fine and then all of a sudden it lost rpms, then seemed to recovery, then back to losing rpms and shortly thereafter died.

Attended the JSJ auction in Epping NH today. The L4330 HST with Cab, HD QA bucket, and two rear remotes with 317 hours sold for $22,000. This did have the subframe BH mount too for the Woods 80 BH. The same buyer bought the Woods BH for $5500. Total package with the BH was $27,500. They had...

Hi guys, My L4330 has recently developed a squeak somewhere in the lower parts of the front end, maybe around the right side power steering ram. It sounds like a rubber-on-metal squeak, but may be a hydraulic noise, I can't really tell. A brief inspection without any disassembly showed...

I looked at a 2006 Kubota L4330 GST 4x4 today here's the info: -1022 hrs -original owner -open cabin with canopy on rops -oil changed at 100hr increments (no written proof) -loader w/quick attach bucket (good condition) -pallet forks -4'x6' homemade (maybe?) man basket that slips onto pallet...

Hello everyone - I am in need of a 60 amp alternator for my L4330 which is the alternator that Kubota installed when a cab was ordered with the tractor. Mine has the non cab 45 amp alternator. Reason why I need it is that with my heater on and the tractor no rev'd up past 2200 rpm, I am...

Hello folks. Hopefully just a quick question... can anyone provide the size/number info for the coupler I'd need to attach to the rear hydraulic remote on my L4330HSTC? Here is a pic (sorry, it's inverted.) I'm having a bear of a time finding the right coupler and I'm trying to piece together...

I just purchased a set of 18 Watt LED lights that I am going to mount to the ROPS for plowing in the winter. I can't see ever using these lights separately from the stock factory lights. Can I just wire them into the factor lights so that when I flip on the factory light switch these new LED...

I posted about this a while ago but can not find the thread to update it. I have 8-16 R-1 front tires. I need something wider because of the wet clay I often find myself working in. I need R-1s because it is clay. After a LOT of time searching and reading tire spec sheets I found that a...

My engine blew up with 700hrs on it. The crank and 1 piston are no good. The dealer did not tell me this. The dealer instead charged me for a new re manufactured engine. I have everything off the original engine. If you are looking for a specific part, let me know.

I went by my local Kubota dealer today wanting to order 3 sets of remotes of my L4330. I got a quote for $1632 (not installed) plus the top and tilt kit for $812. I don't have anything to compare these prices to. How much have you guys paid for remotes and T-N-T kits? Any dealers on the form...

Hi Folks! I have not been here in years but thought of TBN while researching a tire issue for my 2004 L4330dt. It has 8-16 R-1 front tires. They are too narrow and sink into soft ground especially with the bucket loaded. I need wider tires. After a lot of research I found a R-1 tire that is...

Does anyone know the appropriate size for turf tires on an L4330? Tractor data only shows AG tires, which I already have. Thanks for any help!

Hello Guys. I have a home on 15 acres. 5 is finished/manicured lawn, the rest is brush hogged. I also have 1/2 mile of asphalt between the driveway and the paved area around my outbuilding. Currently, I'm paying someone to mow the manicured part weekly, plus paying $450/cut for brush hogging...

Just purchased a 2006 L4330. Worked it all day and did fine. I stopped two or three times and re cranked. No problem. When I went back this morning and it does not crank. It will not turn over. It's as if a sensor or something will not let the switch key work. 1. Got it in Neutral 2. PTO is not...

I have a Kubota L4330D (GST) tractor with a front end loader, bought around five or six years ago. I hit 350 hours yesterday, and the service light come on (indicating time for scheduled maintenance). Well, I haven't had the tractor serviced since around 100 hours, so I am curious what all needs...

Hello, I would like to add a set of rear remotes onto my L4330. Is this something I can walk into the Kubota dealership and order as a factory/stock item? Thanks

Hi all, Anyone own a L4330? Care to give any feedback for a potential owner? I will be using it for snowplowing a 1/2 long driveway and some logging in the mountains of Vermont. Well those will be the main uses at least. Would love to hear peoples advice about this particular model

Hi I was thinking of adding forward and rear facing lights to the ROPS on my K L4330. The headlights are not effective shining on the back of the bucket and backing up in the dark is sketchy. Has anyone done this? Looking for some advice? Thanks.

The four wheel drive worked the last time I used it while plowing snow with the bucket last winter. After finishing mowing for the season, I reinstalled the bucket. I tried to engage the four wheel drive. The lever moved into the proper position but it did not engage the four wheel drive and the...

I have an L4330 GST and the 3pt is not lifting until my control lever is at the very top of of it's operating range (like #7 or 8). Basically, entire range of the 3pt hitch is controlled by the last inch and half of control range. I'm sure there's an adjustment linkage or screw somewhere that...

Hello All I got started on this project yesterday, and have made enough progress for you to follow what I have in mind. I wanted to fabricate a toolbox bracket for my Grand L 4330, to mount on the right FEL tower. Two 5/8" holes were already drilled in the tower, I just drilled holes in my...

Does anyone know how much work and effort it is to add a mid mount PTO to a L4330? Thanks

Hello everyone - I believe Kubota offered auxillary front hydraulics on the L4330, has the L853 loader. Does anyone know the flow output? Do I assume it does not change from the overall hydraulic system which is 9.4 GPM? My hope is that the option of Front hydraulics on the bucket would be...

I've looked under my Kubota for the 4 trans drain locations, following the diagram in the Op Manual. Diagram shows two bolt-head plugs, I only see the one towards the rear. There's the clutch housing drain bolt with the pin, but that's all I see. Are the other drains internal hex plugs? I...

Hello all Is anyone familiar with the thread used on the transmission oil inlet of the Kubota L4330? I have a Bush Hog post hole digger model # 2102, with the optional down force kit. I am trying to plumb the downforce hydraulics to a Kubota L4330 Grand L tractor, but there is no available...

Hello, My 2003 Kubota L4330 Hydrostat 402 hours has begun to make a ker-chunk sound in the past day or so and I am trying to isolate the cause. It seems to occur mainly when I am in a tight turn or have just come out of one. This afternoon I noticed I did not hear/feel it as I drove into...

My L4330 has a little over 800hr and the HST is getting weak, I changed to fluid and filter at the recommended time. I guess it could be a filter but I also read about a sreen to check, Where to look for the screen? .. Thanks

I have an 04 grand L4430dt that I purchased new and it has just over 400 hours. I was using it today with a box blade and out of the blue it wouldn't raise the 3pt arms. I unhooked the box and with at least 1/2 throttle it would raise them, otherwise at idle it would not raise the arms...

I'm posting this problem for my dad. He's in rural Montana and has an L4330 with a BH90 backhoe. This season when he remounted the backhoe, he noticed very slow and weak backhoe operation. The loader works fine, with no problems. He took the tractor into town for a local guy (nearest Kubota...

Hello, Armed with info from a previous post (I cannot get a mid mount mower to fit this tractor with BH90 subframe) I am considering selling off my l4330HST with r4 tires, BH90 Backhoe, LA 853 loader, quick attach bucket, rear worklight, and mid pto. It has about 110 hrs on it. What do you...

Hello, I have an L4330 with about 100 hours on it. I have a BH90 hoe as well as the front loader. I have recently moved and now have about 5 acres of lawn to mow, so I am considering purchasing a MMM or a RFM for the tractor. Does anyone know if the MMM is compatible with the BH90 without...

On my right side (when driving forward and in reverse) I here a clacking noise. It use to be faint and very rare, but the more I use it, the more common and louder It is starting to get. Ideas anyone??

History: Earlier posts I was clearing in woods heard a pop sound. Some smoke I noticed hydro fluid spraying out of side of unit. Drove quickly to garage and parked. I have put several pictures online and am trying to isolate the problem as I have no warranty. I posted several pictures but it...

I would like to find a tractor to do everything I need which I know is almost impossible. I have 21 acres half pasture and half woods. I have found a 2004 M6800 4x4 fel rops non quick detatch kubota loader 400 hrs for 20000 and a 2005 L4330 4x4 cab no loader 50 hrs 18000. I will mainly bushhog...

Would a L 4330 kubota 4x4 fel and cab weighing in around 5000# be big enough to operate a small square baler like a new holland 273 or a jd 336 ? 44 gross hp 42 net and 37 pto hp we only want to bale about 5 acres of bermuda hay 3 times a year.This tractor is also a hst ( hydro) is this a problem?

Ok so here is a new post. I was working with tractor clearing. I heard a pop underneath saw smoke...shut down. Hydro fluid flying out under pressure when started. I took a few pictures but it is still hard to see where exactly it is coming from to the untrained eye. I am due for fluid...

I had been using my 4330 today and took a quick break, but when I went to go back to work it won't start. The engine cranks but it will never fire up. It is a dt model, clutched tractor. I have checked the pto switch, if I engage it the monitor shows "pto", I have checked the forward/reverser...

It has been a long time sense I visited this site, glad it is still here! Today I had mowed (brush-hog) with my L4330 for about 5 hours. Parked the tractor for 1/2 hour and headed of to the hunting grounds to mow some paths. I have to drive on roads about 3 mile to get there. I was in 11 gear...

I've pretty much narrowed down my new tractor to one of the two listed below. I'm leaning towards the L4630 because it's a little more powerful, and I think the powershift transmission will be better for my use, which will be loader work (maintaining manure), brush hogging, snowplowing my 1/4...

I got the following offers from my local dealer. Can you guys tell me if these prices are good, and what you think about these models? model L4630 2006 left over with powershift transmission and cab air ect ...46hp and LA853 loader with cupler ...$29675 sale price and available 1500$ cash...

DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT THE FRONT / REAR DRIVE TRAIN RATIO IS FOR A L4330HST 4WD? I NEED IT TO CHECK THE CORRECT SIZING OF MY FRONT / REAR TIRES. THANX

Hello, Haven't seen this problem listed and the Kubota dealer is closed today so.....Went out to start my L4330 but it wouldn't start. The procedure is to turn the key on, depress the clutch and turn the key to start. The Intellipanel displayed "hst" and "neutral". This has happened before so I...

Just purchased a new L4330 FST and it's dripping oil from a bronze colored bolt w/lock washer located directly behind the oil drain bolts. This bolt has a domed stem in the middle of it that moves up and down. The dealer did come get tractor and take it in for repairs; said it was a torn...

Any thoughts would be appreciated. Does the JD use newer technology?

I am doing the 50 hr service on my l4330 gst (w/o mid PTO) my book indicates 4 drain plugs for the hydro fluid: front behind oil plugs, middle rear, and then two offset left and right in the rear end up near the tires. I only see the two and not the offset plugs. Does anyone have any insight...

Does anyone have any information on aftermarket part#'s for the l4330 oil and hydro filter? Thnaks.

I am trying to decide between the Grand L3830 and the Grand L4330. The L4330 is about $2000 more. I have about 6 acres of brush on a 25 percent slope to deal with. There is another 6 acres on a steeper slope which may be inaccessible with the tractor. The tractor will have a 1000 lb 72 in...

Can anyone tell me what type 3ph backhoe I should purchase. I have a L4330 with FEL on it. Would like a separate pump system. An 8 ft. digging depth would be nice. Will use for personal use on 5 acre homesite i.e. digging up stumps, trees, burying cable/plumbing e.t.c. Have considered Taylor...

Looking for brand advice on purchase of a BH for my L4330 with 853FEL on it. Thinking of Taylor Way 766 or Koyker B-75. Want separate pump and easy on/off characteristics which 3ph models seem more able to provide, judging by the threads I have been reading. Does my Kubota require a sub-frame...

I'd like to start a discussion about the pros and cons of these two tractors. A side by side comparison, if you will. Please stick to features, HP, torque, etc. I know that everyone is biased in some way, but please try to stay away from "Green is made in America by REAL americans..." or...

Hello All I am mostly very satisfied with my newly aquired 4330 but have a few questions regarding the FEL capability of this tractor. 1) I am assuming that "breakout" is the limit in force before the hydrulic will simply not lift. I.E. you have the handle all the way open to lift but...

Okay, I think I've narrowed all my choices down to the L4330 or L5030 with GST. I tried out the HST and GST models this morning and really like the GST better for my primary useage. The L4330 is $24,000 with a LA-853 loader w/ toothbar and the L5030 is $26,800 with the same loader. I'm going...

I am considering repositioning my rear wheels with R1 tires, and am interested to hear from those who have done it on their's. One reason is to accomodate chains which seemingly will be very close to the fender, but that remains to be seen until they have arrived and I have installed them...

It occurred to me that since I won't be able to use the backhoe till July when the ground dries out, and since my friend down the road has offered to let me use his Kubota mini-excavator a couple times each year, that I ought to hold on the BH90 for now. So instead, I've locked in the price with...

Hello all, My first post so a little bio may be useful. I live at the end of a steep mountain road @ ½ mile and gravel. Periodically it needs scraping to smooth/reshape and clean ditches. And in the winter, now, I need to remove snow and ice to save the roadbed and to make vehicle passage safer...

My local dealer has both. If both are configured identically, the L4630HST with 230 hours on the clock comes in $1300 less than the brand new L4330. Advantage L4330: Brand spanking new. Virginal. Disadvantage L4330: A tad less power. Expense of the 50 hour service = $500. Advantage L4630...

Puma 72\" snowblower on a Kubota L4330 Hello all, I am looking to buy a three point hitch snow blower for my 4330 and have read good things here about the Puma. What I'm wondering is will the Puma 72" handle the 43 horsepower of the 4330? Their site says 18-25 horsepower recommended. It's...

How does $18,000 for this combination sound? Thanks for any advice/help

Lately, my cruise control inidcator has been intermittent. I am assuming the sensor is dirty, but where is it? I haven't really searched hard yet, but if someone knows of the top of their head, that would save me some time. Thanks, Joe

dealer called today to tell me he cant believe i was just driving down the road and the axle failed he thinks some other circumstance led to the failure he even called the wrecker outfit to verify where he picked it up i hope this doesnt get out of hand but anyway no cause as of yet i believe...

I'm about to buy an onroad dump trailer for hauling dirt, stone, etc. I have a 2500HD GMC with 8.1 gas & Allison to pull from wherever I pick up materials to my yard. Once I get the trailer to my driveway, I want to be able to drag it out back with the Kubota. I'm leaning toward a 10K GVW...

Hello all, I just recently took delivery of a new L4330 HST with a BH 90 on the back. When it was delivered the young man tried to show me how to take off and put on the loader which he assured me was a simple job. It came off no problem, but getting it back on was a fiasco. The back end of...

I just noticed the other day that the rubber boot covering the steering cyl. rod end is torn completly around. They look like a cv boot. Is this a major job to fix and must it be done asap?

As some of you know I posted a concern with the lack of power when grading with my new L4330 right after taking delivery. At 27 hours I have decided to trade it back to the dealer for a new in the box L5030 they just got in. It looks like the dealer and I are very close to making the deal work...

Howdy all, My name is Kevin and this is my first post here (after lurking for a while). Just recently purchased an L4330 after doing some research (of which this board was a big help) and am super happy with the tractor. Great site and I look forward to many hours in the saddle! Kevin

I used my new (9.0HR) L4330 on a job site today for the first time. With the 72" high back Gannon full of dirt and pulling through soft dirt the tractor felt a little underpowered. I had the trans in low range and the throttle wide open and I was almost able to kill the engine. I let up on the...

My new (3.0 HRS) L4330 emits a loud whine from the transmission area when traveling in 4X4. In two wheel drive the noise is gone. My dealer says the unit needs to break in, then it will be quite. Has anyone else experienced this condition? My B7800 is quite as a mouse in 4X4.

Does anyone happen to know what the hole diameter is in the 4330 drawbar? (mine's in the shop) John

I have a B2910 with 82 hours that I purchased in August, 2004. I use a 5 foot Woods rotary cutter and have the LA402 loader with a 4 in 1 bucket. After bush hogging for 17 hours over the weekend, I came to the realization that maybe I need a larger cutter. Contacted my dealer and he suggested...

Well I did it, after joining in some Kioti and general discussions, looking at JD4120, NH45TD, Kioti 55DK, I decided on a Kubota L4330, filled R4s, QA, eHydro to a HD 4 in 1. The 4 in 1 was admittedly a bit of last minute decision. It is an Extreme Duty 73" "Construction Attachments" I think...

The old L355SS that I have been using is dying. One of the rear tires was flat and after I got that fixed and inflated, one of the front tires blew out! (This was a tractor left behind by the old home owner.) My wife agrees this event is a sign to go out and get a new one. We have a large place...

I am still a rookie with this tractor thing so excuse my current excitement. I pruchased my family member L4340 in late september and used it vigorously while landscaping my new yard. After I regretfully parked her for the winter duration, I kept my attention on snowmobiling. Now that the snow...

I'm buying a new L4330 HSTC equippted with an ATI 4n1 bucket. When discussing an electric over hydraulic valve to control the bucket jaw, my salesman suggested a valve made by Fossi. I'd never heard of them but he assured me the dealership had used them a lot. I saw the tractor for the first...

I was planning on purchasing a L4330 with L853 loader. I need to take care of 110 acres. Mowing with very steep terrain, loader, backhoe applications, auger for fence posts, road maintenance, moving 3x3x8 square hay bales, and maybe tilling 1-5 acres. Have to maintain next to river; so lots of...

I took the manual for my Kabuto to Advance Auto parts to get oil for my new L4330 and did not find any oil that meet all the ratings (or reqirrements?) for my 50 hour service. The people are very nice but just did not know how to advise me, even sugested going with Kabuto oil. I did not want to...

I was on the phone with one of our local dealers trying to get a price quote on a Kubota L4330HST with front loader (LA853FL), which he gave me, $23,160. He also quoted me on a L5030HST with front loader (LA853FL) @ $25,930 which they have in stock. I'm not sure that I want the HST, but they...

Hi all, I'm getting ready for my 50hr service on the new L4330. I've noticed that many on the forum mention cleaning the hydraulic/HST strainer, but I cannot find it's location on the 4330. Since it has both a regular fluid filter plus an HST filter, did Kubota not include a separate...

I wanted to know how much my L4330 weighed so I drove it to the scales at our local Farm Bureau Co-Op. Boy was I surprised at how heavy it is. 7,400 lbs! It has a cab, LA853 loader, standard 6' bucket with toothbar, 6' Woods box scraper, tires loaded with Rim-guard, & wheel weights. It must add...

Hi Guys, excuse my ignorance but... I just brought home a big brother(L4330) for my BX. I skipped through the manual, but, didn't see any instructions on the clutch except to depress when starting. Also why the hook for the pedal? Thanks for the insight.

Finally got the new tractor. L4330 HSTC to replace the worn out pair of old 8N's and to work under the case 1370. Heres a couple quick pics from this weekend ill take some more when I get down to the farm this weekend. The dealer still hasnt gotten the bucket in however we picked the tractor up...

trying to get a good ball park price for each bare tractor

I searched and could not find any prices for 4330 with a cab. I was quoted $26,500 with a cab, HST and 853 quick attach. $22,200 for same tractor without cab and $20,900 for 3830 HST and 723 Loader quick attach. All tractors come with industrial tires and filled tires. I think the cab 4330 is...

How much difference is there between these two machines? Will one do something the other won't? I would assume the L4330 will be slightly faster and stronger, but for light/medium duty work will I ever really notice the difference? The work would include pulling a 6' bush hog and light FEL...

The dealer came to pick up my L4330 today to do more warranty work. The guy loads it up onto the trailer and I watch him tie it down. He throws a chain across the front of the loader just behind the bucket, and then puts another chain across the 3 point and pulls it tight. Right over the...

I called my dealership and asked how much to do a 50hr service on my L4330. They quoted $300 just for labor. Does this sound right? Thanks, Joe

Hey, I want to thank this group already! I decided I needed to buy a tractor but didn't have enough info to feel comfortable making that decision. I am getting there now after 7 hours yesterday reading on this site. I have a question...not that we would ever sell a tractor but how well do...

Is there any problem with me getting the 723 loader rather than the 853 to mount on the L4330? Is there any L4330 with the 723's out there?

My throttle pedal's cable wore into last weekend. Took 72 hours of very little use. I'm surprised how small and wimpy the thing is. Something I did not expect from a "quality" tractor. It was lubed with a grease, it did look black from the plastic covering it runs through. I'm thinking it will...

My side profile....

I had to post pictures of the new machine! I am so proud!

I'm trying to help my dad help spend some of his hard earned cash, and he wants either a Kubota L4330 or a JD 4610. I'd like to hear from anyone who has knowledge or experience with either one of these machines. With either one he wants a shuttle shift manual transmission (not hydro), loader...

I'm trying to help my dad spend some of his hard-earned cash. He's got his choice narrowed down to either a Kubota L4330 or a JD 4610. Anybody have a ballpark good price on an L4330 GST with LA853 loader with HD bucket, and a BH 90 backhoe?

I'm curious about what the consensus here is regarding the prices for these two tractors (I still am struggling to decide between the two, but that is the subject for another post). I have quotes from my local dealer $20100 for the 4330 and $24050 for the 5030, both with hydrostatic...

Im looking at a L3430 Hst cab A723 with R-4's How much more would it be to upgrade to a L4330 hst cab with the bigger loader and r-4's?? thanks

Hello to All, I've be away from TBN for a while, too much work. Now I am semi retired, more time for the tractors, I hope! Now for a question I hope someone can help me with. On two other tractors, both 3010s I installed a hydraulic top link. They both worked fine. Last weekend I finally got...

Hi All, My tractor needed fuel and thinking winter is coming I put in 10 gallons of #1 from Citco. I then thought that winter is really a ways off and am now wondering if I will hurt my engine running 10 gallons of #1 through it in warm weather. From what I have read #1 has slightly less...

Ordered a L4330 hyd.with cab over three months ago and wanted the low finance rate,they havent been able to get one so after the rates go up the next day they tell me that it is getting ready to be shipped,seems kinda odd how that has been working out.I told the dealer to forget it unless he...

Thanks to all your help, I now own the above. It is, as previously noted, complete with R-4s, LA853 FEL, HD 72" bucket, 3 spool hydraulics [top and tilt ripper], Woods industrial 72" box scraper. I am attaching a photo which I hope comes through. As expected, I am anxious to get to work. Little...

After finally realizing that my little Iseki TL1900F (a great little tractor, by the way, for its size) wasn't large enough to take on some of my heavy duty bush hogging requirements without me spending forever on my farm (wife won't allow ) I recently decided on a Kubota L4330. This forum was...

The L4330 was delivered on June 12 to our horse barn. One shameless plug for Byrd Tractor in Manassas, Virginia. David, our Sales Rep, did a wonderful job, and came out to the barn for a couple of hours to orient us on safe operation, FEL removal, maintenance, etc. I operated the tractor for...

anybody having trouble trying to buy a new Kubota,just went to try to buy another new 4330 and the dealer told me they cant get any more till september.

Wow! My friendly Kubota representative in Manassas VA came to the shop and opened up this afternoon for my wife and I to place our order for a new tractor. Our first new one. We have been operating a 2WD JD 950. It has served well, but no loader, no 4WD, etc. Here's what we ended up ordering...

IM looking at these two machines and was wondering what was the prices of these machins was. The local Kubota dealer is 1hr. away and haven't got the time to get over there to see or test drive. Been looking at the NH33d,NH35d and the 40d and i got the prices from those as the guy is on my...

Ordered an L4330 yesterday(Sat) morning; expected delivery is tomorrow (Mon). Bushhogged in my sleep all last night...... Been looking at various models over the past month, mostly K's and JD's. Have some experience with an 18yr old 55HP K of my fathers and really lke the quaility of the K...

I,m just about to buy a L4330 hst with r4's and fel. My problem is, one local dealer is going to put the woods 1016 fel, and the other dealer is going with the kubota la853. My problem is the dealer with the kubota la853 is $500 more than the woods 1016 dealer, is it worth spending $500 more for...
