    Added Blind Spot Mirror to My Kubota BX-25

    For the few times I take the BX-25 on a road trip, I thought a side view mirror would be a nice idea. This blind spot RV mirror fit the bill nicely. It was a little over $3.00. One pic shows the glue setting up during the install. I had to add a rubber shim to make it flush to the bucket frame.

    Kubota B3030 Moving New Picnic Table

    I took advantage of the nice weather to construct a new picnic table today. It was sure nice having the Kubota to move it by the fire pit.

    B owners - check your rear wheels

    Hoe, I didn't mean to ignore you; I don't visit here like I use to--especially since Kubota discontinued my B3030 and added regens to their engines. As I don't run a belly mower, I can't comment if it would work with spacers. I needed spacers to make chains work on my rear tires for the bad...

    Non-Orange Tractors Get Flats Too

    I stopped to take a shot of this tractor today along side the road. A young farmer's wife changed the tire herself with the help of her two small kids. Her floor jack wasn't working, so I went and got mine. She took the replacement tire out of the pick up by herself and put the flat one in...

    Snowblower Modification

    I stumbled upon a video on YouTube where a guy was making modifications to snow blowers to prevent clogging and increase snow throwing range. He demonstrated that the clearance between the auger and housing was so great that clogging would occur. By closing the gap with a piece of rubber, the...

    Time to Chain Up the Kubota

    Looks like we might be getting a little snow on Thanksgiving Eve. Time to remove the leaf bucket and chain up the Kubota. I hope our Kubota brothers in Buffalo are stayin safe.

    BX-25 Hydraulic Hose Leak, Heads Up

    I noticed today that my BX-25, which I purchased new in 2008, and now has over 300 hours, sprung a leak in one of the back hoe hoses. My neighbor, who happens to be a heavy equipment mechanic found the leak. He also pointed out that it comes from rubbing against the piston base when the boom...

    Saddest Hole My Kubota Ever Dug

    I wasn't goin to post this. This is the first pet I ever buried with my Kubota. I paid $5 for this dog Kandi at the pound. Best money I've ever spent.

    BX-25 on a Mision from God

    I had to take the BX-25 on a road trip today in order to plant a tree at my church. I stopped for diesel along the way and found that some things do go better with Coke.

    B3030 Anti-Freeze Change was a Joy

    I have never seen such fine engineering to change the anti-freeze on a vehicle/machine as the B3030. There is a dedicated petcock that is easily accessible to drain the fluid. The overflow tank simply slides off a bracket for removal. Well done Kubota!

    BX-25D Attachments

    I went to a Kubota dealer today to buy some filters. The dealer had a bunch of BX-25D's; some were sporting these attachments. I guess you can pimp your BX-25D into a real work horse these days.
