They also discuss Justin's Kubota 5660 (gear drive, PTO vs engine horsepower, $35,000 price) and test the loader bucket's lift capacity. Best for DIYers wanting a cheap heavy ballast box idea and casual Kubota M-series owner impressions, not a formal tractor test.
Rock Hill Farm is a hands-on equipment/outdoor-work channel featuring the host's own experience and a guest owner's build, not a dealer or manufacturer.
Justin says he got the whole build done for about 140 or 150 dollars using a water trough, square tubing, and 14 bags of 80-lb concrete sacks.
With the frame and 14 bags of 80-lb concrete sacks poured in, Brock and Justin estimate it weighs around 1,500 lbs total.
He says he would integrate a receiver hitch into the back during construction instead of having to swap his three-point hitch receiver to move trailers.
The Kubota 5660 is 56 horsepower at the engine but only 50 PTO horsepower at 540, a smaller drop-off than some gear-drive competitors.
