Buying Advice L3240D

[jadkins223]

Hi guys. Looking at buying a L3240. 2007 model. 850 hours. 6 foot hog. $10k. I drove it yesterday and everything is good and strong. Paint faded from the sun. The serial plate says L3240D. What does the “D” mean? I posted this in the general forum too but thought it’d be better here. Dunno how to close other thread

Standard gear transmission?
Always thought they were DT,if 4WD

Don't think they made the L3240 in straight gear:HST or GST(shuttle shift),GST is about as close you can come to gear. Either way a good price for a nice tractor+.

YES, value price for a nice tractor.

Do not delay. Used Kubota Grand Ls go fast.

Anything pre tier 4 is going fast as people realize a tier 4 unit can be problematic.

Sounds like I’ve stumbled across a good deal then. In the next few weeks it will be mine. I’ll post pictures when I get it gents. Thanks all!

Upon further thought,it's most likely an FST transmission.
I believe that stood for fully synchronized transmission.
Indeed a good buy!

Here she is fellas. Neighbor let me borrow it for an hour or so to move some dirt as a demo before I buy it and it ran great! I was surprised how well it handled full buckets of dirt and rock! The shuttle shift was a breeze. I should own it next week or so

Congrats!

Buff the paint and it will look like new. Kubota paint has a tendency to fade, but is easily corrected.

Wow that’s incredible!!!! How do you do that sir? Mind telling me?

Nothing special, just what I had on hand.

I used a dual action polisher with a mid-stiffness pad, Meguiar's #83 Dual Action Cleaner/Polish followed by Megiar's Mirror Glaze #21 Synthetic Sealant 2.0.

I'm certain just about anything would work, just might take a bit more time though.
