I just brought home the new Kubota L3902, I added the Loader, 66” tiller, 60” Brush Hog and Quick Hitch. It was difficult to find anything used and when I did the pricing was not far from new. I appreciate everyone that provided input, this tractor will be a nice addition to our property management goals. My wife said it looks like the price of venison went up again this year.

Looks great. Now cut 2 1/2"x 2"×4" steel plated and weld them on top of your bucket each above the loader arms and weld some hooks on top of the plates. If you do you will be amazed how often you use them.

Dang thats nice!

Good advice. I didn't weld plates on there but maybe I should have b/c the top metal was kinda thin I just didn't think of it. Heres the hooks I used. I put two on the outside top of the bucket and a couple on my 3pt drawbar.

I see a lot of guys drilling holes- I like the welded plat idea way better. I'll probably pick-up a set of pallet forks also.

Oh I meant to type that I put a gooseneck ball on the center top of the front bucket. Its pretty handy for moving the trailer I have like that.

Maybe it would have been smart to just do that with a 1-7/8 ball and then you could use it for regular trailers too if you wanted.

Funny- I'm blushing because the tractor will eventually reside in my Toy Box and I'm not including pics of that eek

I agree Bernie, decent little tractor but that garage is- Nice tool storage and look at all the Milwaukee hardware!

I'm thinking of putting a Heavy Hitch on the quick Hitch for hanging suitcase weights and 2" receiver ball mounts, trailers, etc. Has anyone tried that brand or have another they recommend?

Great looking garage, and tractor. I have a L4760 new in 2019. The only negative, is after a while you will wish you bought the enclosed cab.

The price may have gone up but so did the enjoyment of procuring it! Sweet rig! I got a 3901.

Very nice!!! Kubota tractors are bullet proof. They make a great product have used them for some years now. I really like their quality and service.

I thought the bucket hooks might be the first modification but I couldn’t walk by the cheesy toolbox one more time so I incorporated a small packout box I had and now it fits all other MKE accessories including all my work lights that will be nice for hauling bears out. I figured I share for the handful that enjoyed the MKE and toolbox porn as much as the tractor

Nice machine, looks similar to my old L35 that is still plugging away. I have a loader and the BT 900 backhoe on mine. It's the most useful and versatile machine I've ever owned. Almost no repairs in the last twenty-plus years and it's been used hard. I hope they still make them as rugged as they used to.


Eh...wot?
