New member intro and help pleas

ElCidAviator · Jul 17, 2020

Good morning all,
I just separated from active duty Air Force after 12 years and was finally able to buy my homestead property in Southern Indiana. It痴 a small 25 acre mostly wooded property with a 4 acre pond. I just had a logger come in and take 10% of my white oaks, while also clearing out two food plots. I now have about 30 tree tops to clear and I also have a lot of dirt work to do on my ****, all of which led me to buying a tractor.

Thank you TBN members for all the wonderful content. After countless hours reading and a half dozen test rides I ordered a Kioti CL3510 HST (the closest/best dealer didn稚 have anything in stock). I got a tiller, box blade and 3rd function from the dealer. I also ordered EA wicked root grapple to help with my tree tops.

So here痴 the question. Can someone give me the exact inside dimension of the loader on their 3510? I知 trying to order a tooth bar from Express Steel here in Indiana and they need that length to make the bar.

Thank again for all your help, and if y誕ll ever need anything in Southern Indiana shoot me a PM.

Cheers,
-DJ

I think you would be wise to wait to order your tooth bar until after YOU can measure your bucket yourself.
Avoid the potential for a slightly different bucket size screw-up.

Welcome! If you can wait, I second Fried1765 on waiting until you get your tractor. If you can't, we have several people with 3510s that should be able to get you in the ballpark.

:welcome: to TBN.

As others said I would wait also if you want "exact inside dimension " or call your dealer.

60 or 66 inch bucket?

Welcome and thank you for your service! I would wait as well. Do post pictures when you get it, we love pictures!

Thank you all for the suggestions and kind words.

My dad always said, 鍍he day you stop listening to people is the smartest you値l ever be? With that in mind I値l definitely listen to you more knowledgeable folks and wait until I get the bucket before ordering.

Cheers and thanks again for the help.

Honestly, you should wait to recieve your tractor and do an exact measurement on the bucket you recieved. These bucket bars are custom made just for your bucket, and even a 1/4" error does not allow for a good install. Be patient. They can cut them quickly to exact measurements and you will have it ready for installation on your specific bucket.
