- Kubota M59, JD530, JD310SG. Restoring Yanmar YM165D
Luckily the 310 has aux hydraulics out to the extendahoe bucket. So ten more feet should do it.After buying a pair of 30' hydraulic lines at just under $500 for my backhoe thumb, might want to price out what those lines to the submerged pump will $$ run as well.
This system won't be cheap, just inexpensive compared to a house.
The M59 would be a decent second choice, but only has a fraction of the hydraulic flow as the 310. And a couple of other things...Good as the M59 is, the 310 is just flat better at everything except being handy.Wouldn’t it be a lot easier to get a readily available PTO pump and use it on your M59?
And here is the real - very sad - reason..... if I had to replace the 310, I could buy one tomorrow at the yellow JD dealer. New M59s are no longer available.
