Kubotas at play. Er, I mean work!

It will start right up on the glow plugs. Just romps a little before it settles in. I'll run 5-40 rotella next year. I run it in my 7.3 powerstroke for the same reason.

 

The landscape rake is making a decent counterweight.

 

All diesels 'romp' a bit when cold. Even my 7.3... 5-40 in everything including the lawnmowers.

 

I finally got the grapple and 3rd function hydro installed. Thankfully, I have a very nice neighbor who is heavy machinery mechanic, to he put in the 3rd function and did a damm nice job.

 

Congrats Brother

 

Great investment

 

Guess if you do wood, it is. For me, it's not. I do have a 3rd function on one of my loaders but I just use one of the 3 sets of remotes for power, Ran hoses to the front right step and added a set of QD fittings there so I can remove the loader and plumbed the 3rd function in hydraulic hose in the hose sheath that goes up to the front of the loader. All I use it for is my power angle 10 foot snow plow which I use infrequently. I despise snow as much as I despise cold weather. I'd move south but I own way too much land up here to do that

 

Where are you planning to get your tires from?
Might want to check out this place...
Radial Farm Tractor Tires

 

Too much land is a good problem to have!!

 

You are going to wonder how you ever did anything without a grapple here in a few months. Congrats.

 

I am hoping for same for my birthday…. Then bonfires would get bigger

 

I get them from Speck Tire in Bowling Green, Ohio or Miller Tire in Napoleon, Ohio. Have accounts with both. I'm not about to even try to mount them, they are almost as tall as I am and each tire and rim assembly weighs almost 1000 pounds. The use a special air over hydraulic bead breaker that peels them right off the rim. In fact, the do it right on the tractor. Do my own car and truck tires (have a Coats 10-10) but tractor tires, no way. Last summer I dismounted one of the rears (right side) because I needed to get to some hydraulic linkage that slipped a pin and it took two of us to get the tire and rim off the tractor and keep in vertical I don't even want to think about one falling over on say my foot, and breaking it. Looked like 2 drunks maneuvering that sucker around. They make in the field calls too. Not about to use the either method, with my luck, I'd set the tractor on fire.

 

Half kicking around buying a weld on grapple top section and welding it on my pallet fork backstop so I can grab stuff like round bales, on the forks and not loose them. I true grapple I have zero use for.

Bought this in June, it seats 4 or fold down back seats to make bed longer. We love it as a family. I’ve been wondering if I’d be able to get it to my locust grove. It made the climb!! first time using 4 wheel drive and dif lock. I’ll be able to get some good loads out with the 1100lb bed capacity. Previously I had to pull wagon with 4 wheeler. 95% of the trees down in pics are BL

 

Nice ride...should make work much easier.

 

Run it and review it Slocum

 

Lots of kick azz in those 2 posts

 

How do the second row of seats Work? That is a sweet machine. Is it diesel?

 

Yes it’s diesel, seat flips forward and bed lays down. 2 minutes tops to switch. Here’s a pic with seats up.
