Is there anyone using a mofi 4500 on a Mobley plan ? Does it work and any issues with a "different" LTE router ? paul

Thread says it was moved, but the link takes me to a page saying I do not have permission ??? It was fun to read. What happened ??

I went out to clear the second half of our 20" snow, my 12 year old front mount Kubota blower broke. I usually go through a shear pin or two, but this was a quick "plink" and everything stopped. I lifter the blower and backed up to take a look and found the reduction chain laying on the...

Went and removed the deck on my BX22 to put and loader and BH on. I was surprised to see a layer of hydraulic oil on the deck. Looking underneath, all I could see was oil everywhere. Started her up and saw dripping from multiple places. Two hours later I had the floor pan off and saw a...

Well I finally finished my new 9.2 KW solar system. Things started slowly. I was very optimistic back in March, expecting to be on line in a month or so. Well permits, approvals by the local utility and getting all of the required drawings, etc took nearly 3 months. Biggest delay was the...

After a recent post it occurred to me that if there were a reverse flow fan available for the engine, on the BX you could get nice warm air blown on you in the winter. I have a cab with an open back so it would be ideal. I have a generator with the same basic 3 cylinder Kubota engine, and it...

Just upgraded my backup generator to a new Kubota powered 9.8KW set. I had a Deutz 8 KW aircooled diesel genset. The Deutz was a 3600 RPM and ran great, but it was relatively loud compared to the new Kubota. Water cooled and 1800 RPM make the Kubota the clear winner with low noise and...

Upgraded my genset at home for a new Kubota powered 9.8 KW. Had a Duetz aircooled 8 KW before. The Kubota is really nice. 1800 RPM and water cooled and it is nice and quiet. Added bonus is lower consumption, and auto start. I worked 6 days on and off getting it installed, fuel set up...

Anybody have a link to someone who makes a trans/oil filter protection skid plate for my BX22. I saw a picture on the forum looked like it was made from diamond plate. Time to buy one and stop replacing cooler fans. paul

I will give a blow-by-blow of the installation of a geothermal heating system in my home. First for the disclaimers and "don't attempt to do this at home": Although I am a trained engineer and a very mechanical hands-on guy, I also have a small side business installing and servicing HVAC...

I installed a geo system in my own residence last fall. I documented with pictures. Let me know if there is interest in what went into the project and I will lay out the story. If not much interest I will skip it as it looks like a lot of writing to give the blow by blow description. Let me...

Living in a somewhat isolated rural area, I have had a backup generator for years. It is truly nice to have during an extended outage, since the well pump will not bring you any water without power, and heat and lights are nice during an extended winter outage. For over 5 years I have had a...

I was out clearing some thick brush with my BX22 yesterday. About half way through my desired task, the hydrostatic started groaning quite loudly, and the tractor would barely move. I backed up a bit and saw a puddle on the ground. I shut her down and looked under to see oiul streaming out...

Was at the dealer and saw a BX 23 on the floor. Mostly the same as the '22. New headlights, same bulbs but new lenses, just a cosmetic change. The differential lock pedal now has a rubber covered round disk to step on, rather than the bent rod. The hood release lever is new. Looks more...

I got a postcard from my dealer about a diecast scale model of the BX 22. I went down and ended up buying one for $ 39.95. It is a nice metal mini BX 22. Steering works, all implements move and there is even a detailed engine under the opening hood. The seat flips up and rotates, but isn't...

As others have noted, this is the winter for snow (at least in the NE). My wife has said a hundred times "sure was a good year to get a new tractor". Our latest 22" was taken in stride by the BX-22/front blower. Doing the 2100' driveway, 10' wide took about 1 1/2 hours. The vinyl cab and...

Well the continuously changing forecast here in NE PA finally left us with 5" of snow over about 3/4" of ice. The BX22/Kubota Front blower did a quick job of getting rid of the snow. I then tackled the ice. Instead of setting the blower lift control to Float, I gave it enough down push to...

With the 6" of snow we got in eastern PA yesterday, I was able to really test out the snowblower on my BX22. The blower works extremely well. Throwing snow 50' is no problem. The electric chute rotate is also a great feature, combined with the vinyl wind cab, makes it a very comfortable job...

In preparation for the snow, my BX22 now has a nice wind/snow shield cab for snowblowing. Sears has these on sale (I think on closeout) for $ 119.00. Despite some concern, adapting it to the BX was no problem. I drilled a couple of holes in the side flange of the floor pan to mount the...

I bought the Kubota 50" front mount snowblower when I ordered my BX22. I decided to enjoy a bit of creature comforts and ordered the electric chute rotator. I wasn't going to get the electric deflector since the price was just completely outrageous. Low and behold I ended up finding the...

Of course the BX22 would not not fit in my old 12' x 16' shed with all of its goodies and the other "stuff" that lives in the shed. Started razing the slow careful way, since I plan to reuse roof sheathing and a few other odds and ends. Things got off to a slow start with the 90+ deg and high...

An interesting followup to my post <A target="_blank" HREF=http://www.tractorbynet.com/cgi-bin/compact/showthreaded.pl?Cat=&Board=owning&Number=156303&page=&view=&sb=&o=&vc=1#Post156303/>previous post</A> concerning a replacement lens. After losing a blinker lens to a tree branch, I ordered a...

This was the first weekend I really cranked up the hourmeter, putting 6 hours on. First job was to dig the footers for expanding my shed since only the tractor fits (with a shoehorn with the 60" MMM attached), the FEL and BH get parked in the garage for now. Going from a 12' x 16' to 16' x 20'...

I am looking for a cab for my BX22 tractor. What I want is a canvas/vinyl soft cab that I can use for protection when snowblowing. I have seen them many times on small tractors, but my searching has only come up with one from Perry Company. I sent them an email requesting more information...

My BX22 was delivered today after a month's wait. Very Orange Overall very impressive to use. I mounted and demounted the MMM, FEL and BH. I found that the FEL was a bit tricky to get back on. The mounting arms had attained slightly differing angles and it took a bit of jockeying to get...

After a long 4 weeks wait my BX22 was delivered to the dealer today. Went there to look it over and check it out. Unfortunately he would not let me do any digging on his property, but I did exercise all of the implements. Delivery is set for Friday, after he swaps tires (I ordered bar and the...

Here are the pictures of the BX22 that came in, but wasn't mine yet. <A target="_blank" HREF=http://www.tractorbynet.com/cgi-bin/compact/showflat.pl?Cat=&Board=buykubota&Number=128766&page=0&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=0&fpart=>Previous post on that story</A> <A target="_blank"...

Got a call from the dealer today - "Hey there is a truck here with 3 BX22's, I guess your's is here already!" Wow I thought, he had estimated mid-end April. After a few words about having to get it ready, I was ready to get in the mood to dig holes by early next week. Great ! Well before I...

I am new to the group. Just traded up from a large frame Simplicity to a BX22 (end April delivery, I hope!). My main uses are mowing and snowblowing my 1700' driveway. The FEL and BH will be welcome back savers in the garden and woods as well. Now my question, I have seen some simple winter...
