I found myself in the same situation as my good friend and neighbor Bob. We both were looking for a 4x4 tractor/loader and had similar price limitations. After much research, it looked like we both found the Kubota B2100 as THE tractor. So, off each of went to do our research and shop. I found an equipped B2100 to be more expensive than I could afford and had to settle for looking at the B1700. My next stop was the JD Dealer where I looked at a 4100. While it seems the 4100 and B2100 would be good matches against each other, the prices put the 4100 and the B1700 neck and neck. I went with the 4100.<br>Bob, on the other hand went to the Kubota dealer to demo the B2100. Same deal with price, so he went with the B1700.<br>Weeks later, we have put both machines through hell and compared and swapped and played. After much work and time we both concluded they are both good machines. If we had to pick one over the other, we both would pick the 4100. The main difference seemed to be if one of us could afford it and wanted to add a backhoe. Kubota sells one while JD does not and does not recommend one (for the 4100 anyway).<br>While both tractors will get the job done and we gave a slight edge to the 4100, we both concluded that the

A local dealer has a backhoe attachment off a JD 450 loader. I would like to put it on my Ford 4610. He said it would attach to my 3pt. Would this be a wise decision? This is a used unit and is not on a machine at this time. What should I look for to see if it is any good. I do know the dealer and he will stand by it, but he obviously won't guarantee it forever.

I rec'd my new JD4300 w/ sync reverser a few weeks ago. Up until this weekend I hadn't really given it a workout other than moving snow and driving my kids around - works great for both!<br>In reading recent posts and realizing my planned use for the machine I'm concerned that I might have made a mistake in not opting for the HST. The work I will be doing ( tilling, brushhogging and alot of loader work) will require alot of direction changes - reason for the sync rev.- This weekend I moved around 10 tons of sand and later some topsoil and noticed that I had to double clutch or ride the clutch somewhat in order to get a full bucket. I'm concerned that I will wear the clutch out with this type of work and after seeing a $1500 cost for replacement ( I think it was posted here), I began thinking that I might not have made the best choice in transmissions.<br>Some specific questions I have:<br>What exactly wears out on an HST? Is it difficult/ expensive to repair?<br>Will I experience any less loader power with an HST? My 420 loader began to <br>bog down on a heavy load of topsoil/clay, later I noticed that I was about 3 qts low on fluid - don't know why - couldn't see any leaks - would this have a bearing?<br>Should I keep what I have or try and change?<br>If I change will the dealer really let me upgrade if I opt for HST? I got a pretty good deal on the tractor I now have, is the policy to pay the list price difference? By the way it has about 16 hours on it.<br>Your input is greatly appreciated!<br>

Parts should be available from your Kubota Dealer. He may not stock much for the B6000, but should be able to get them in a few days.

one thing to also consider is the rest of the tractor built idenical. if the higher horse power machine has a larger tranny then the smaller one then the tranny was designed for the hp engine thats on it. More hp might damage the rest of the tractor not designed for it.

Just bought one yesterday. It was a lease return with 112 hours on it. I picked it up with a 430 loader for $16,300. The best price I could find on a new one with a loader was $18,200.<br>

I just finished the 50 hour break-in service on my L3600 and used Shell Rotella T 15w40. It was recommended by my dealer and will work well in my climate range (NW Washington). I researched other oils (dino/synthetics) but I prefer to change oil and filter every 50 hours and synthetics would be a waste. Of note, I have several friends who are independent truckers and they gave Rotella T excellent recommendations based on their years of experience. Enjoy.

Don't know much except they use a reliable Perkins diesel engine and Bosch fuel systems. There are 3 models available..... (1) 25, (2) 35, and (3) 45 -- the 45 is available in 4-wheel drive.

Dear Sirs,<br>I own a Kubota L150 and for some reason recently it has been making a metallic clanging noise. I think it sounds like a piston sticking. I changed the oil and put some Marvel's Mystery Oil in the crankcase. In the past this has helped but this past oil change has not remedied the noise. Please help me if you can. Thanks a bunch.
