I am continuing my work on the rehab project of the Woods RM59-1 finish mower. I have received and installed some additional safety decals. I have also finished the installation of the anti-scalping roller system. I also made and installed grass shoots for both sides of my mower deck. I have...

I have been working on a Woods Finish mower. I have researched it and found that it was one of the first of the RM59 series. It was unit 2470 Off the assembly line, Serial number is 3670, the first 1200 numbers were not used on the RM59s. I only paid $150 for it but I will have probably $1500...

The weather has just been rather, well just a mess here in Eastern NC. Snow just has a very paralyzing effect on this part of the country since these snowstorms only happen maybe once or twice every 5 to 10 years and we don’t have the road equipment to deal with the snow! Ok let’s do a quick...

Well, if you have never been on a Norwegian Cruise Line cruise before then you probably should. It’s the only cruise line that I will go on because of the things you mentioned. You can pretty much go as you are to just about anywhere on the ship. That’s why they call it, Free Style Cruise...

Really miss Rural King, when I was in Missouri, it was my first place to shop for anything for the tractor. Bought all the hydraulic parts to make the FEL for the L185DT. Here in NC, they recently opened the first store here but it is about 2 hours drive. Don’t know if or when they might...

I have had the old tiller for about 15 years maybe longer. Decided to see if I could modify it to attach to the back of the tractor to till up a couple of places in the woods for this year food plots. I was able to locate a similar one that was not running pretty cheap and what I planned is to...

Before I purchased my new Kubota B2401, I had my son in law, make a implement to put on the FEL on my old tractor to be able to dig up small trees in the woods and transplant them into the yard. I never used it but now I purchased a quick release plate and getting him to weld them together so I...

Well, I have to say that cruising has to be something that you really want to do! Some people love it and some people hate it and some just go because it’s just too hard to not enjoy it! I have been on about 10 cruises and every one has been amazing. I am a people person and just enjoy...

Well, recently returned from a Christmas Cruise in the Caribbean! So no tractor time! Hope to get back to doing some work and mods on the tractor soon. Really enjoyed the 80 degree weather everyday and just relaxing and of course not having to do anything but enjoying the food, drinks and fun...

Well, snow is very beautiful when it comes but the mess that comes with it makes me really happy that I live in the southern part of the country. Yes, we do get it occasionally but it’s gone that next day. I lived in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan as a teenager and had to shovel it, dad was...

I got my control valve in finally! Got it mounted on the bracket and most of the hoses connected! Ran into a little issue, the fittings I ordered from Discount Hydraulics, well I don’t have a adapter fitting to get my hose to connect the banjo. But I have found one at Tractor Supply in...

I have had similar experiences and issues with Amazon shipping! I have been shopping online for years and Amazon has REALLY GONE DOWN HILL ON THEIR SHIPMENT PROCESSING When you would order an item they would tell you what day you could expect it to arrive, and for the most part of the time, you...

Purchased my first tractor I believe in 2015! It is a 1978, Kubota L185DT, PAID $2500 for it. Didn’t have a FEL but everything I could find with one was out of my budget. So I bought a with the intention to add the FEL when I could! I was able to locate a Bushhog brand aftermarket FEL that...

I didn’t do much in the last few days on my project but have been waiting on parts to come in slowly. The holiday season shipping has started slowing everything down. As I did a slight modification to my support bracket for the 4 AG couplers with bracket. After adding the metal plate to my...

Okay, but if anyone wants a copy please let me know and I’ll be happy to provide them a link or email if they prefer. Thanks

I have received the complete version of the Work Shop Manual used in the Dealer Maintenance Shop. I will post it, it is 400 plus pages. If I need to remove it or post it in a different area of the site please let me know. Well the file was rejected as being too large. If someone knows how to...

I just sent an email to them asking if they wanted a copy so I don’t think they will respond until next week but we will see! Thanks again

Well I didn’t know that was something that could be done so I will see what they recommend for me to provide it to them! Thanks for the advice

Did a little more on my B2401 tractor today. I decided that I should move the 4 AG coupler further back because when the hoses were/are attached to the couplers even with an elbow fitting on the coupler the hoses would obstruct the seat being completely down and resting on the springs and seat...

Well, just got off the phone with my local Kubota dealer and they are going to send me a Zip drive with the actual B2401 tractor workshop manual that their shop uses in the shop. So I appreciate all the info and assistance with the search for it. Now if I am able to get it on to my computer...
