I also own a 322 and have been looking for both a 3pt hitch as well as a front end loader.
The hitches come up now and then on Ebay. Look to spend $350-500 in NOS condition. I do not *believe* that Deere is making them anymore. Keep in mind these are Cat 0 hitches, so you do have an implement weight limit to consider.
Not sure what you mean by dirt bucket. Is this a loader? Or a bucket you can use w/the 3 point? If it is for the 3 point, there are probably after markets available.

Hope this helps,
Paul

You might consider, as I am, the new Kubota B7800. It's equipped with 30 h.p. in four cylinders. On paper, that's better than the 2710 and 2910 and cheaper. I don't know why Kubota offers so many similar choices, but this looks like a good compromise. Check it out at Carver: http://www.carverequipment.com/b2710_b7800_b2910_order_form.htm

I've seen pictures in newspaper ads of a new BX backhoe. Has anybody tried it and with what success?

Same thing happened on my BX last year. My local dealer said it is a common problem. His fix was this. They drilled holes in the L pins for a cotter pin. The hole is by the spring on the INSIDE section of the u-shaped form that drops down. That way it can't come out. It's simple stuff, but you'll need a metal drill.

This is more of a farming question than a tractor question, but I figure there is somebody out there who must know. I have about 4 acres of horse pasture which has been overgrazed for many years, and is now more weed than grass. How do I go about revitalising it? Is it enough to just spread seed all over and see what happens, or do I need to prepare the soil first? What is the best time of year to do this? I have a Kubota B1700, so I can buy or rent whatever attatchments might be needed.<br>Thanks from my hungry horses,<br>Paul

See my comments a few threads up. With the cruise lever the brakes are not a problem for turning, and for everythibng else simply releasing the hydr pedal stops the tractor NOW. Not a reason to avoid orange all else being equal.

The brake pedal issue isn't an issue, because if you use the cruise confrol lever ( all the B series have it except maybe the 7300 ), you can use the split brakes with your right foot. Only when you have the brake pedals linked together will hitting the brakes shut off the cruise.
