He also covers the Grand L60's external three-point lift cylinders, serviceability under the hood, and the OEM third-function loader valve. Best for buyers comparing the Limited against the standard Grand L60 on price.
Posted by the Messick's Farm Equipment dealer channel, with the presenter explicitly inviting viewers to call Messick's for purchases and service.
The Limited is missing cruise control, has turnbuckle style sway bars instead of quick-adjust ones, and a few other trim items, but keeps the drawbar and extendable link arms.
External cylinders give greater lift capacity due to better geometry near the rotational point, and they are easier to service than internal cylinders inside the transmission housing.
Neil leans toward the OEM option because its shielding and routing are cleaner than add-ons, and it preserves the power up button function without removing switches.
Neil says the value of the removed features is far less than the discount Kubota gives, calling it a good value filling a gap between deluxe and standard models.
