    Tool box location

    Two years ago thanks to Almighty God i became the proud owner of a 2001 Kubota L3000DT. The original owner had mounted a plastic tool box on the right fender. Well a few weeks ago the top of the box broke. I've bought a new box but really don't want to mount it on the fender. I've been thinking...

    front axle fluid change

    Today i changed the UTD fluid on the front axle of my 2001 Kubota L3000DT. The owners manual says it holds 6.3 qts. After replacing with 5 qts it showed full on the fill plug dipstick. I drove it around for about 15 minutes and then let it sit for about an hour, rechecked and added just over...

    Rear diff lock

    I have a 2001 Kubota L3000DT. This morning i was in a couple of situations where i needed 4WD to get through. One was going forward, and the other was backing out of a slick hole. But before engaging 4WD both rear wheels were spinning without the rear diff lock pedal being used. Is this normal?

    Transmission fluid gauge

    Last September i bought a 2001 Kubota L3000DT. In January i had the transmission fluid changed and the strainer type filter cleaned. There is a gauge on the left side of the transmission to show the fluid level. It's just a clear circle that the book says if the fluid is showing between 1/4 of...

    RPMS

    This is probably a stupid question, but I'm going to ask it anyways as I'm more concerned with taking care of my 2001 Kubota L3000DT than my pride. This is my first diesel tractor. I do have some experience with my Uncles 1974 Ford 3000. I know most implements will advise as to what rpms to...

The owners manual that came with the tractor new was for the Kubota L2500. While these two tractors seem very similar there are some differences. The only zerk I could...

I was at the local Kubota dealership early last week and asked about a fuel additive to prevent it from gelling. They recommended Stanadyne Performance Formula for not only cold...

    From the foothills of N.C.

    My name is Michael. A while back I decided I was in need of a tractor. As I started my search I started doing some homework, as this would be my first diesel tractor. I spent numerous hours on the net when I came across this forum, and I've been lurking for some time now. I've been impressed...
