Building and ditching a driveway! Tractors moving tons of Dirt! Kubota M6060 and Farmtrac 60

[@jameshopkins365]

Your video really demonstrates the advantages of using a tilting back blade to cut a ditch beside a road.

[@khtractors]

It’s a very useful tool! One of my favorites! Thank you

[@jameshopkins365]

I suggest a video about different firewood splitting machines.I was thinking about purchasing the duel horizontal and vertical splitter .Great content,I really enjoy bush trail building and improving with a tractor.

[@khtractors]

@@jameshopkins365 I built a horizontal splitter with a 4 way wedge for my tractor, I love it. Difficult with big blocks though.

[@jameshopkins365]

Yes I watched that video those were big firewood rounds.👍

[@ffrob2001]

love the videos. I finally was able to purchase some land and I need to learn how to maintain my driveway and ditches. its about 1600 ft long.

[@khtractors]

That’s alot of road to keep up! Thanks

[@dannybaker4586]

You and Clayton done a good job building the driveway I enjoy watching your videos

[@khtractors]

This was one of my favorite videos to make! Thanks

[@CaptainBillBrown]

i love your road building videos but i would learn so much more if you shared the logic of why you do what you do, i.e. water run off, ditch building and share the different attachments you are using and how to use them...keep up the videos!

[@khtractors]

Yeah I’m just not a big talker and I assume people understand why I’m doing what I do. It’s something I have to do better on. Thanks for watching

[@justinjdavis79]

Awesome job!! Looks great!! Clayton done a wonderful job!!

[@khtractors]

This was one of my all time favorite jobs! Really enjoyed it. Thanks for watching!

[@jacobhendrickson8935]

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.

[@HighRoad317]

Good times. Great approach to the problem, culverts a great idea.

[@khtractors]

This road has held up very well so far! Appreciate you watching!

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]

I really like the blade, it’s a good one! I’ve seen that fuel tank setup on some Kubotas as well, doesn’t work good on hills. Thanks for watching!

[@chadyoung5960]

That Kubota is a beast! I'm planning on starting my own business doing property maintenance. Been looking at the b2601.

[@khtractors]

It really is! Been a great tractor!

[@acts19ministries82]

I always had way too many rocks on my farm to use my Kubota box blade and grader blade to do any good. Looks like you are doing it right.

[@khtractors]

Rocks make it really difficult! This road has held up very well so far. Thanks for watching!

[@larqy8828]

Amazing vid going to get a 68 hp kubota for my farm she’s gonna be a bulldozer for my lil drive way n tracks

[@khtractors]

I appreciate that! I hope you like your tractor, would it happen to be an M6800 your looking at?

[@kevinashby3784]

Nice work

[@khtractors]

Appreciate it! It’s been almost a year now and still in good shape!

[@billr4677]

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 😊.

[@LittleCabin]

Enjoyed watching this -- recently bought some property in Bland County, and we're going to need some serious driveway maintenance.

[@khtractors]

A lot of people from here go hunting in Bland County. Good luck on your driveway repairs, this one has held up well. Thanks for watching!

[@LittleCabin]

@@khtractors Going to be building a home for our retirement, but not for about 7 years...meanwhile, will need to upkeep about 1/2 mile of driveway/road. Looking to buy my first tractor before long.

[@sizemorec1]

Nice job!

[@khtractors]

Thank you!

[@Mark-Marine]

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 👍🏻

[@khtractors]

It gives people an idea of what they can do with tractors. I wouldn’t know what to do without Clayton’s help now days! Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks!

[@mikeadams2339]

When cutting ditch are you in 4 wheel drive? I waz informed not to bein 4 wheel drive so as not to break equipment if i hit a big rock? Your helper did good vid camra work! Thankz 4 sharing.

[@khtractors]

I use 4 wheel drive but you have to be ready to stop if you catch something solid. It is an easy way to damage the blade. Thanks for watching

[@tlm3574]

Tube at the lower end would be a nice improvement. Looks about 20 times better. The rock will be the coup de gras.

[@khtractors]

Thank you!

[@daveknowshow]

everyone wants a land plane but I say you just cant beat a good quality scraper blade. you could have never done that good of a job with a land plane.

[@khtractors]

I have a land plane I built, very good for refinishing gravel driveways but limited in uses. If I had to pick it would be a rear blade any day! Thanks!

[@tlm3574]

So true

[@jacobhendrickson8935]

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]

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

[@LarrySmith-rr5lk]

Pretty good teamwork who needs a dozer anyway when you got a Kabota with those big front tires

[@khtractors]

This was a fun project! Thanks for watching!

[@lonniechartrand]

Clayton is learning pretty good from his daddy!

[@khtractors]

Thank you! He’s a fine young man!

[@practacticaloutdoorsandthi6962]

Do you have a vid showing the blade on the front of the farm tractor?

[@khtractors]

No I haven’t used the front blade much since starting KZbin but I use to use it a lot.

[@billr4677]

An offset blade sure would be nice to work that lower bank eh! Think I’m gonna buy a small one for my TYM T25. THOUGHS?

[@khtractors]

We have an offset blade, I don’t use the offset much but it’s handy when you need it.

[@FabbedFun]

Watching re-runs this evening LOL. Great job, by the way. Not only do I want more content like this, I like digging and pushing dirt lol Was that a center crown or a slope towards the ditch? Nevermind you answered at about 30:00. Gosh, I want to dig. I need an excuse and a few dry days!

[@khtractors]

Election Day made one year since this job, it’s held up great! Probably one of my favorite jobs we’ve done in along time. I hope to get another good dirt moving job before long.

[@jmccardle10]

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]

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!
