    My dad called yesterday and asked if i was interested in a kubota 3350 he came across. He said the price was right but i needed to jump on it asap or the guy was going to put it out for sale. I trust his judgement when it comes to equipment (taught me everything i know) so I gave him the cash last night and he picked it up for me today. It has a few issues but nothing we can't fix. It's stuck in 3rd gear and the shifter seems to have come loose from the forks inside the trans. There's a pin just under the top cover that sometimes works it's way out or breaks but is an easy fix. It also has a leaky passenger side rear axle seal (easy fix) and a missing grill. The engine runs great and fires up with no smoke (even in the low 30's this morning). The hydro system is very strong and will lift the front tires off the ground and hold there just fine. Dad left the bucket and 3 point up last night and both didn't drift down an inch overnight. I took her for a ride around the property today and everything else is in working order. Oh and it came with a soil pulverizer too. Not bad for $1400 :thumbs:

    She aint pretty but she's a good runner!

    Right where I want to be.
    Until you grow a bit more, you'll have a tough time pushing the pedals.
    Nice hat though.:D
    Yeah, you stole that. Nice find.

    That's a heck of a deal. I'll check my service manual stash at work tomorrow and send you a PM if I have one for that model. Guessing it's an L3350 judging by the size???

    Great deal! You could spend several thousand dollars freshening it up and still be way ahead. You will soon wonder how you ever got by without one. Congratulations!

    Oops. My hard drive was sitting right next to me. Got one for the L3450 if you find that the info will do you any good.

    Yeah it's an L3350DT. Not sure how similar the 34 and 33 are but if i find they are i'll let ya know. Thanks!

    hr meter says 627 but there's a voltage issue to the dash so not sure how accurate it is. But judging by the light wear on the hard parts on this machine it might be close!

    We've had and have our fair share of equipment but a decent mid sized tractor with an FEL has not been one of them. Im excited to get this ol girl back in shape :banana:

    It would not have done you any good, the rest of the bums around here would just try to lowball you!:D
