Arguably I overbought, it's true. I could have gotten by with a TG or something of the like. But on advice of some tractorheads on TBN, I bought the BX2200 with the 60 inch deck and a FEL. I don't regret that decision one bit!!! I enjoyed it for a number of years and eventually swapped the...

Good morning all. I'm selling my BX2200 and one element of research I'd like to do is to understand the current MSRP (and street price if you know it) for the current comparable model to BX2200. I see they've got several BX models now, and I've not really kept up with them. I know that Kubota...

Hi everyone! I thought I'd pop back in to see if someone can give me a sense of direction on how to asses a value for my BX2200. I bought it the summer of 2001. It has 425 hours on it. I've done all of the services (and then some right.... we're TBN'ers!!!! haha). It is a Kubota 60" deck...

Oh geeze. My deck is full of hydro fluid. Splashed up all over the place. Stripes on the lawn. Yuk. Still, 13 years old... I guess I can't complain too much. I tracked it down to approximately where the lines for the steering pass back up through the frame from the engine compartment...

I just did my oil in the spring, so I'm good to go for a while, but having recently sold a car, I now realize I have a little stash of premium German synthetic oil (Liqui-Moly) that no longer has a purpose. It is rated for diesel (even the the car was not diesel). However it is 5W-30. I...

I seem to recall there were some die hard Redline oil guys, and some who preferred the OEM stuff. I need to get the job done this weekend and I'd like to just pick up some oil at autozone down the road. I actually still have a new WIX filter. Is there a good diesel oil that meets all the...

After 12 years, "I suppose"... it's due. :ashamed: I have the two filters and I'll knock it out today. My question is probably an easy one. What's the thing I've annotated here with the red arrow? And do I need to get that changed too? Thanks all!

I'm really frustrated by the ROPS getting n the way when I mow near smal trees etc. I've been debating just removing it. I had not in the past because I had a FEL, but the FEL goes to a new owner tomorrow. I've been mowing the same yard for 12 years and there's just now way the BX is going...

I'm moving to a smaller place. 0.7 acre lawn, pretty flat with a little downward slope to the front lawn. I will no longer have easy access to a place to dump grass clippings. I have a 12 y/o Kubota BX2200 with a 60" deck, a rear bagger and a FEL. I just sold the FEL so I'm got a bit of cash...

Any thoughts or advice greatly appreciated. A few immediate thoughts come to mond. 1. Will I need to drain all of the UDT fluid? 2. Do I need to purchase plugs for where the hydro lines leave and go to the loader quick connects? Thanks in advance for the help. The buyer and I are attacking...

EDIT --- Never mind. It's sold now. We came to a deal much quicker than I expected due to excellent communications from the buyer. It's a little less than I was thinking and more than he originally offered/was thinking. That's the definition of fair eh? Thanks all! . . .I need a little help...

I posted the other day of a potential move to a neighborhood where all I'd ever need to do is mow. Snowblowing is done by a dedicated walk behind that I have. I was considering getting a zero turn and selling off the BX, but now I'm thinking of keeping the BX, 60" deck and rear PTO driven...

Hi all, I may be getting a smaller place in a nice little neighborhood and I am considering selling my BX2200 and getting a smaller grass-mower-only kind of machine. A few questions come to mind. What's the right size Kubota (or is there a better fit/solution/brand) mower for about .7 acres...

It is nearly certain that I'll be moving and I'll only be able to use a very small mower at the new place. I have a 330 hour, meticulously maintained (and documented maintenance) BX2200 with the loader, 60" deck and the Kubota rear bagger. Can anyone recommend a good way to determine a fair...
