BX1870 Kubota
Transmission
Model Year: 2016

It has no clutch transmission. It has 2 positions, rabbit and turtle. At times, the transmission rough shifting gears scrape and are very hard to engage. The transmission filter was changed at 50 hours as required and only a small amount of fluid had to be added. I hope to hear from a owner with the same problem who has a solution

Pros: Very good with a 54-inch mowing deck
Cons: The top link is too short to use my lay off plow, I will need a 36-inch

BX1870 Kubota
Grew up with Allis Chalmers - Love Orange
Model Year: 2015

These "little tractors" have always caught my eye. I never could afford one until now. I have arthritis everywhere and needed something with hydraulics and power steering, but not too big. So far, I love this "little tractor"!! It meets my needs and then some. I have the front-end loader, 48"MMM and rear mount SB. Everything is built to work and last. I am very happy with my purchase! Highly recommend for the small property owner.

Pros: Very well made
Cons: Have to make some mods that I feel should be standard

BX1870 Kubota
Love My Kubota
Model Year: 2014

Have had time to really use it. Found several new labor saving areas. Let the tractor do the work not me. Great size for my 5 acre goat/chicken farm.

Pros: Great size. Fits around my property.
Cons: Would like more power. Only room for 48" mowing deck though.
