Modern Tractor Discussion Board Re: Kubota M105S [ Expand ] [ View Replies ] [ Add a Reply ] [ Return to Forum ] Posted by RodInNS on August 01, 2009 at 15:24:37 from (216.118.158.123): In Reply to: Kubota M105S posted by Ben12 on August 01, 2009 at 06:33:17: I've never heard that about the transmissions, but it doesn't really surprise me either. When you take a 5000-6000# tractor chassis and add a bigger engine, bigger tires and heavy cast wheel centers to make it a 9000# tractor you get the same results as if you cranked up the pump on a 5-6000# tractor and expected it to pull day after day. Problems. It's still a light tractor in the drivetrain department. That's fine if its doing light tractor work or if you need more PTO power and not the weight... but around here it would be a recipe for trouble. I think it depends largely on what you plan on doing with the tractor. They are goo tractors generally. I'm just watching to see what happens to a few of them on a local farm here that uses them for heavy drawbar work.. I noticed that they didn't cut their ol;d Fords loose just yet, so mabey they aren't convinced of the sales pitch either...
