    This was much anticipated and worth the wait. The transformation was remarkable. Amazing what all you did with those tractors...especially pushing full buckets uphill with the Kubota M6060. Clayton is shaping up to be quite the top-hand - I'm impressed with the boy 👍🏻

    As I stated on another video, I’m a new subscriber. Wishing there was more tractor noise then music noise. After all it’s a tractor channel not some music video. Still like the content though 😊.

  • @jacobhendrickson8935
    @jacobhendrickson8935 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Seems like the front wheels over pull the rears a bit. I bet they do this on purpose because it’s better than the rears pushing the fronts. It’s hard to get all equal when tire sizes are so much different.

    • @khtractors
      @khtractors  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I think it’s because my rears are 28” wheels and some come with 30” and still run the same front tires.

    You do work em hard that’s for sure. That power steering gets a workout when you’re steering with a loaded bucket not moving yet. My power steering is so smooth on mine but I have some play in there that needs adjusting. My manual shows 2 points of adjustment for tightening the steering back up.

    Hi, I'm looking at building a driveway to my home and have a Kioti RX7320. Would you recommend a 6 way front mounted dozer blade or a rear mounted 6 way blade?

    • @khtractors
      @khtractors  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Personally I’d recommend the setup I have, using the rear blade and loader bucket together. A 6 way front blade would be very costly. Something I think would be nice is a 4 in bucket, that way a person could use it as a blade and a bucket. Thanks for watching!

  • @jda1961
    @jda1961 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    back in 2007 i bought a new kioti DK55 and bought a blade like you have, that was one super heavyduty blade. i cut into hard shale with no problem with it. i sold the tractor a couple years later because those tractors had the fuel tanks underneath with a pipe joining them, problem is if you had a half a tank of fuel and got on a hillside the fuel ran to the low side and the engine starved of fuel. thats not good in the west virginia mountains

    • @khtractors
