Now you guys got me wonderin' what the ACTUAL differance is. I took my 2710 (W/ R-4's)on my hard packed gravel drive and just turned right for 360*. I had close to 6 foot ID circle. Then the same with full right brake, the right rear tire stayed locked but got pulled slightly for a 2 foot ID circle. For the fun of it I tried it in 4WD with the same results. With the looks of the drive I would not want to try that on my lawn!! Can anyone pivit on the braked tire?

Bob, sorry, I guess Halsey is right, myself and the others who responded to your question seem to have answered the most important part of your question, which related to the brand of mower to purchase. Go with a well respected name brand who specialize in mowers like Woods or Landpride. Halsey's explanation on the gear box is correct except the JD 790 has a PTO HP of 25 not 27, still well below the 40 HP max associated with the mower you're considering.

Kevin, I didn't consider the Cub Cadet before buying the Kubota B2710 last year, but I did look at them before buying a Kubota B7100 in 1995. And, in fact, the dealer from whom I bought my Kubotas also sold Cub Cadet. Nice tractors with a lot of nice features, but for me the only one I sat on was just uncomfortable; wrong placement of pedals, etc. (which of course is a purely personal matter that might be different for someone else, and which may have changed with the newer models). I also suspect the salesman was right when he said the Cub Cadet cost a little more new, but would have lower resale value. So, while I'm partial to the Kubotas, I certainly wouldn't discourage anyone from considering a Cub Cadet.

I have had a similar thing happen. Nothing happens at the front end loader or 3pt hitch. Tractor otherwise seems fine. Suction strainer also looked clean and normal. Replaced the suction strainer and everything went back to normal. I have seen suction strainers that looked like new and still would not allow enough fluid to pass. If your pump is not hissing or making unusual noises, it may not be the strainer - just thought I'd pass along my experiences.

my gun ain't loaded so nobody shoot me.i've got a 1530 with super steer and a 7308 loader.buying one without super steer would be like buying a car without a/c.the first thing i did was jack up the front end in the shop at the dealer and check the clearance.it looked good and have yet to have a problem.as far as the merger,case/ih is only involved in the skid steer line and fiat has been there for about 10 years.that's what my dealer told me.good luck

Louis, it does sound as if you're looking a tach/hour meter that picks up off an ignition wire, and like Dave said, you don't have such on a diesel engine. Of course, your engine is a 4 stroke rather than a 2 stroke, but for what you need to know, that's no help.

To answer your question yes I have a 4600 and have had the plates replaced already for my backhoe. I had them replaced a month ago took 2 hrs. If you have some digging to do just go ahead and use it the way it is but they only asked that you check all your bolts on the exsisting plates to make sure they are tight. I used mine right up until I had the new ones installed, I was doing some serious digging as well with no problems. They were having trouble with bolts loosing up for some reason on the old style. Happy digging until they come is all I can say to you.

Well, he certainly has my sympathy....geting a system completely purged can be an all afternoon job and about all you can do is to keep doing it over and over. It sure sounds like there is a tiny air bubble trapped in the line between the pump and the injector. This is a common frustration, and what happens is that bubble is just sitting there flexing with each pump pulse and absorbing all the energy that should be moving the fluid through the injector and on into the cylinder. I'd bet dollars to donuts on this being the problem. Of course we are making the unproven assumption that the solenoid valve was bad in the first place, and that replacing it has solved the original problem of no fuel.
What I would do is to remove the injectors from the motor, put them somewhere where you can see them, and hook them up to their feed lines. Now the engine will turn over easier and you can bleed the injectors and see when they start to spray. It will be messy. Right now they are not spraying at all or you would smell it in the exhaust. When they are spraying nicely you put them back into the engine - trying not to get air back into the lines - and it will start just fine.
Do not use ether. It is not worth the risk to you or to the engine.

John, I've had end plates (sometimes I call them "side plates") on my 8 foot "Servis Big Rhino" blade for a lot of years now. Mine came with the used blade or I would probably never discovered just how good that they work. My opinion is that the combination blade and end plates is far superior to a box plus scarifiers. But end plates do require a blade that is heavy (weighty) and sturdy. End plates require that the blade is heavy enough so that it will take a cut in your ground without continually being thrust up out of the ground by stones and hard spots. If it will do this, then scarifiers are redundant rather than necessary. The actual depth of the cut you can accomplish doesn't much matter - 1/8", 1/4" or deeper are all fine. But the blade with end plates will only work as well as the whole affair will stay on the ground without jumping up. Of course this is true of box blades as well, but their weight to cutting edge ratio is usually much higher than a blade....which is why they appear to work better. The obvious problem is that by the time you add end plates to a long blade and try to pull it like a shorter box blade the tractor may not be able to do the work. There is a reason why tractors usually use a smaller size box blade than blade! My 33HP 4wd compact doesn't have much traction to spare pulling its 7 foot Rhino WITHOUT the end plates. If I were going to use end plates I would go down to a six foot blade. BTW, I pull the 8 foot Servis Rhino with end plates with a small farm tractor...(vintage two cylinder JD). It has a Cat II 3 pt hitch and of course much more power and traction than the healthiest compact.
The big advantage of end plates is that the blade can do everyting that the box blade can do, plus it can be both angled and tilted.....so the dirt can be moved from one side of the road to the other and laid out smoothly all in one pass. Usually you do this using only the trailing end plate attached. The leading edge is set deeper and without a plate so that it does the cutting.

They say the best ideas are the simple ones. Too bad I'm not smart enough even to think of the simple ones. I like this idea and I'll have to try it out. I keep my stuff under cover and it is a pain jockeying things around to get to what you want. Thanks for the idea.

My only response about the engineers to to give them the benefit of the doubt and say they didn't intentionally design a poor axle (did anyone ever test this tractor?). But since John Deere doesn't give any explanation, we don't have any idea. It sure seems to have been a bad job. Remember, after my 4100, I bought a Kubota rather than a 4600 which I considered. They lost my business. My dealer has also been excellent but why does he need to be? Like you said, did John Deere really save money by spending thousands on repairs?

Chuck,
I had heard the old axle was structurally stronger but that is where rumor gets one. Like I said, it would be nice if we had information from John Deere instead of guessing.
