I would consider the best additive to be Stanadyne Performance Formula but it cost more than Power Service in the white bottle unless you buy it in bulk.

You are making me work! Alright for the best advice list all seperately!!!! We often take in packages and hardly ever sell it the way it came in. Trying to sell it complete you will find people that only want certain parts. Tractor and loader is a no brainer but list the rest seperate. You have a lot of money out on the equipment you have and you obviously have gotten some good use out of it. The tractor and loader anywhere should be around 16000, or there abouts, the rest of the pieces it depends on the local market. The sales this time of year slack off and you might also find your local market a little soft at this point. If possible to hold closer to spring prices go a little higher.

Thanks for the tips.

After posting my question I did find the other threads on this issue. I don't feel drift is "normal". When I raise the FEL with or without a load it immediately start dropping about 6 to 8 inches within a minute.

This was a recent and sudden change from the FEL's normal operation. I haul mostly brush cuttings and wood and I usually leave the bucket at waste level for an hour of more while I loaded it without noticing any drift. After dropping a load on a brush pile the drift was so noticable I thought I had bumped the SCV control with my leg.

After reading the posts here, I assume I have bad seals on the loader arms rams. Do you have an idea what is a fair price to have both cylinders rebuilt?

Thanks again!

I just saw a Kubota B 2400 on a Ford 350 flat bed
truck.

Th truck had dual wheels and the bed loked to be about 14 or 16 feet.

He had what looked like doubled 2x12s for ramps.

Didn't seem to be any strain on the truck.

Here in Ontario, as well as many other jurisdictions, most trailers (and trucks) need to be inspected annually for safety items, as well as compliance with the appropriate regulations or requirements.

More and more inspection stations are refusing to certify anything that doesn't bear a CMVSS (or FMVSS) endorsement from a registered manufacturer.

It may also come up if you ever need to make an insurance claim, a lot of insurance companies have a waiver in the policy, they won't cover a 'homemade' trailer or any contents. If you had a CUT on a 'homemade' trailer it could be an expensive lesson.

Best of luck.

I used a U-haul like in the photo to bring 70 TA Firebird from Arizona back to WI. U-haul was all concerned about liability and wanted to see the tow vehicle 86 4x4 Suburban and load before they stamped the deal to leave Arizona. They had a list of "approved" tow vehicles and they were only full sized trucks. If you don't meet all of their criteria, they don't cover the trailer or you. Trip went well except brakes on trailer when out in Oklahoma. I'd sure be cautious about doing anything to one of their trailers or trucks, "you are responsable for modifications" you could get nailed for a new floor or worse. Some of the dealers take digital photos of the equipment before it leaves now.

Hi David,

Thanks for your advise. I got a JD4310 with 420 and 48. Only a few days to work with the loader but a fine piece of equipment. Thanks for your help.

Noticed you are from Maine, my daughter in law is now in Bangor and my son in Salisbury. I do not miss the snow!

I saw a very interesting addition to your 48 bucket! Is that a JD accessory or a home invention?

Web, there is another way you can accomplish the same thing, probably cheaper and easier.

If you get a 2-position, 6-way selector solenoid-operated valve, and install it between the existing hydraulic valve for the FEL and the bucket cylinders (bucket curl circuit) then with just a click of a switch on your existing loader control joystick toggles back & Forth between curling the bucket and opening or closing the grapple.

We do this with our units for when we put snowplows on in place of the bucket for the winter. Then the existing side-to-side function of the joystick become the plow's power angle control. The existing up/down of the FEL itself is unchanged in either position of the valve, only the curl function changes.

It makes it real handy leaving everything on one control.

Best of luck.

I am considering the purchase of a 360DTC with the loader and backhoe. My other choice is the NH TC30 TLB or the TC29D TLB. Both the NH come with an 8ft. backhoe, whereas the FT has a 7.5ft. hoe. The subframe attachment doesn't leave much clearance under the tractor on the 360DTC, and on slightly uneven ground the back of the Hoe assembly and bucket get hung up on the ground. Does the NH backhoe have more clearance that the FT? The 360DTc seems like a lot more tractor - although it is not hydro - whereas the NHs are hydro. I could move up to the 330DTC which is hydro - perhaps that would be wiser. My tasks are putting in a new driveway, digging up stumps, cleaning garbage out of a ditch and burying it, digging a small pond, landscaping excavation etc. I like the power of the long tractors, just not sure about the loader and backhoe.

Dean, it's still 1500 miles from me so I'm OK with it.

Fluid will also drain from the strainer if it is removed without draining the hydro oil. The strainer is sitting in the reservoir, so expect rapid draining.

The power steering circuit is the best way to bleed the hydraulic circuit. Turn the wheel a few times all the way to the left and right. This effectively bleeds the system.
Always change the oil when you change the filters.

Looking at a used L2850 with LA650 loader and a woods blade. Shows 867 hours and looks like it was shedded.<br>
Shows what I assume to be normal wear but in all a clean tractor. Any idea on a price range?

What you have is a heavy duty B-2150 with a loader. They were the first of the mini commercial TLB's built by Kubota or any one. They were built during the 80's and the price that you have on the one you are looking at seems good. To bad it didn't have the hoe for that much!
