If it does have hubs that adjust on the axles, I guess the trailer doesn't have sides that are higher than the axles. I did hear a story once where the ends of axles on a tractor were cut off apparently to get the tractor in a trailer or truck bed. Seems like a real bad idea.

Sounds like a wider trailer would be better although it's not uncommon around here to see heavy equipment on flatbeds with half the tires off the trailer. They are very wide tires though. Guess you'd want to be very certain the chains couldn't slack, and tie down those binders or use the new type.

Ken, It might be easier and more comfortable to install 1 or 2 direct-vent propane heaters with millivolt (self-powered) thermostats. You have the propane, your outages seem to be relatively short, and an electric-free backup would allow worry-free winter vacations. During the 1998 ice storm I put a 35,000 BTU Empire unit in my garage to prevent freeze-up. Was so happy with it I added another smaller unit upstairs last year.<br>
These are not high-tech heaters, but they are inexpensive, reliable, easy to install, and do keep you warm with absolutely no electricity!<br>
Just my 2cents, but a radiant project is.... a PROJECT.<br>

Fireplaces become less efficient as the temperature plunges, though they make the room cheery....<br>

Mark-

A mid mount mower is not all that interesting to me on this machine.Could take it or leave it as I have a good JD 185 for mowing. The high stature of the Kubota and my very hilly ground could leadto some exciting times when mowing.

Don't read more into then there is. If the PTO clutch does fail this could happen. Is it the same outfit as on a 8N ford, no. This system is still being used in tractors being built today.

I have finished one terrace in the south grove; one of the road turn-around cutouts fillups and other asundry projects. plus digging and pulling out 8 dead or deased trees. Just wanted to give you all an update since you havent heard from me in quite a while. Plus - in a totally unrealated subject ... sold my first painting. <br>
Thanks again <br>

The front end loader works great plowing snow on asphalt but it takes a little getting used to on my gravel drive. We don't get a lot of snow but in the two snows we have had this year, I cleared a 200' drive in under 20 minutes which included cleaning the parking area too. If I was in a big snow area, I would definitely go with a blower.

Snow? What's that???? 75 deg today, supposed to be 77 tomorrow. I have to admit, that's pretty warm even for South Texas at this time of year.

Maybe it's just me, but somehow it seems like a design defect if you have to use a bushhog to reach normal operating temperature.

Hello:

Thanks for replying to my question. I fouud out it was having spark plug problems. After I tried to start it with starting fluid and it started the air cleaner on fire. Got a new one now. It seems to run ok but it could run a little better.

Kind Regards,

The M-5400 is only 54 horsepower on the engine. The 1600 is larger. The six foot mower is no trouble for it to run. The four bottom plow is all it would want.

For a tractor of that caliber a new after market loader would run about 4000.

Kubota has done a lot of work to make a perfectly simple hydro that performs excellently in all conditions. The Super UDT is an excellent oil and is one of the latest acceptable oils for in all transmissions. I realize that it is more expensive then the oil you might currently be using but it might also be a far higher quality.

Here is one for the tractor board! The boat I am currently refurbishing came with a radar unit mounted on a homemade radar arch. It was a disgusting looking thing welded from square stock aluminum with little regard for appearance. It conformed nicely to the butcher job on the wiring and interior, I left it at the marina prior to having the craft hauled to my barn. I fired up the batteries today after cleaning all connections and removing rube goldberg additions to the factory harness, still plenty of cleaning up to do but it at least appears safe to use now. Since I have never owned a vessel with marine radar, I am wondering if I can mount the antenna above the cabin without degrading the signal forward. I realize I will lose the functionality of the rear 1/3 of the unit due to interference from the fly bridge, but I can live with that. Perhaps Murf might have experience with one of these?<br>

Thanks,<br>

Thanks guys. I already talked to my dealer and no warranty problems. He even recommends a sub frame Landpride, for about $6k with tax. I was just looking for input on peoples experiences with the 3pt version versus the subframe on my tc24d. It is brand new 2004. weighs about 1623lbs plus loader. Are any particular 3pt versions better than others? I see a few being sold new for around $2600. Is it one of those 'you get what you pay for' stories?

I have been absent fron this site for a time and am reading with interest this thread on logging. I have a B7500DT that I use a lot to log on 100 acres of hardwood lot. I have a Norse 290 winch and use chain chockers, not cable chockers. I have little problem skidding tree length or sections. The biggest problem I find is keeping the front end down and the fairly low lift force of the 3ph. The raeson for the small tarctor is simple. I want to be able to improve the lot not destroy it with heavy machinery. I see far too much forest destruction here in New Brunswick and will leave my own ground better than I received it. Frozen ground and a little snow are great assets for skidding but not necessary. Any good wood mill has a wash pond and dirt comes right off before the wood hits the steel in the mill. The 7500 is small but ceratinly futs the bill for me. Murf's grapple hitch looks good and I see most newer commercial tree harvesters here use grapples rather than winches. However hydraulics and weight are factors when using soemthing like my tractor. For those of you who read my previous mesages and recognize NB as home of the Atlantic Salmon the runs of MSW salmon were very good this year. Tight lines and good skidding.

Peters is right, you won't be the first one with this problem. IIRC the dealer has a fix for it. If yours is under warranty you have it made - not sure if their is a PIP program for it though.

Certainly looks like the old AC unit. I think I made the comment on another post that the old cubs and AC are still used farming while most Ford N are put out to pasture so to speak. I guess there is a large enough market for a new market row garden tractor.
