    Question About SSQA

    I recently bought an L45 with a SSQA bucket,the first tractor I have owned with this feature.I have noticed the tapered part of the locking pin moves up about a quarter inch in the slot when putting down pressure on the bucket.When this happens the spring becomes tensioned to the point of...

    How Do I Stop That Beeping Noise

    I recently bought an L45 and discovered it has a back up beeper as standard equipment.I live in the country but there are neighbors near who may become annoyed listening to the beeper,I probably would.The beeper is a safety feature but I don't feel it is necessary for my situation,I won't be...

    Would You Accept This As New

    I finally took delivery of the tractor.After spending about 40 hours going over it I am satisfied with it.I took a lot of it apart and cleaned,lubed,undercoated,and painted what I thought needed to be done.I took a few pictures and now it is time to use it.This is the cleanest it will ever be.

    Would You Accept This As New

    After negotiating with my local dealer about a new L45 I decided to get one.The only way to get what I wanted was to ship it in from another dealer in Quebec.I agreed to pay for the shipping.When the tractor arrived it was completely covered in road grime and salt.When my girlfriend looked at it...

    Is Kubota Discontinuing The Bxx20 Series?

    Like the title says.I thought I read on here somewhere that Kubota will not be making any more Bxx20 series tractors.Does anybody know any more about this,is it even true?I know when I look on the Kubota Canada website they still show the B2320 and B2620 but not the B2920.What will they be...

    Hydraulic Filter Magnet

    I just changed the hydraulic filter on my B2620 and was surprised to find that it has no magnet.I asked the parts guy about it and he said they don't have a magnet.He said he only sells one model of Kubota brand hydraulic filter with a magnet,it is the one for my previous L3240 and other models...

    Armrests For B2620

    I am trying to get a set of armrests for my B2620.The dealer can't find a part number and says Kubota doesn't offer them.He did say the same seat is used on numerous Kubotas but no armrests are offered for any of those tractors.The seat appears to be the same as the one on my previous BX2360...

    Adding Photos

    This probably isn't the correct forum for this but here goes anyway.What is up with adding photos to a thread or post.I get the "manage attachments" part but when I add the photos,they seem to pop up wherever they want in the text.If I go to the "insert line ?" part it doesn't give me the...

    LA524 Loader

    I think there is an indicator on the bucket although I don't find that type to be very useful.My B2620 has the same type of indicator.I fabricated a level indicator for it patterned off the one on my previous L3240.I have added a few photos,hope this helps.

    Kubota Modifications

    Mulching Blades For B2620

    I recently bought a B2620 with a 54 inch deck.I read reviews on this setup and a lot of people mentioned that the clippings from the mower were quite long which is what I found.I figured mulching blades would help even if I wasn't using a mulching kit.When I called the dealer he said Kubota did...

    I took some pictures of the level indicator.Hope they help.The rod is 3/8" stainless steel,30" long with the bend at 12".The pipe is 16" long plus the tab welded on the end.I had the pins machined longer than original to clear the hydraulic lines,they are made of 1045 steel which is a bit...

    BX Hood Shake

    This has probably been discussed before but I will ask about it anyway.I used to have a BX25 and now have a BX2360 that both shake the hood quite violently when they are turned off.Do all BX tractors do this and if so,is there a way to make it better?It doesn't seem to matter if the engine is...

    Remote Hydraulic Couplers

    I am wondering if the couplers for factory remote hydraulics are different than the couplers used for the quick detach loader?I am told by a friend that the remote couplers have a "break away" feature,but I don't really know much about hydraulics,I am pretty sure someone on here will know what...

    B2620 Back Hoe removal and Re attach. How difficult?

    Here are a few pics of my backhoe dolly.Originally I made it for my BX25 but modified it to use with my L3240 and BH90.I find removing the backhoe with the dolly to be very easy,it is more work to attach the TPH.

    BX Headlights

    I am wondering if anybody has upgraded the headlight bulbs on a BX tractor.I was using my BX 2360 near dark and had to use the headlights to finish mowing.The light pattern seemed broken with no clear concentration of light,not a whole lot better than my old Sears mower.They certainly are no...

    Land Pride Aerator

    I recently bought a Land Pride CA48 lawn aerator.It seems to be well made and should last me a long time.The first thing to do was add weight to it.I made up half inch plates with pipes welded to them and bolted these to the trays.This allows me to adjust the weight as needed.The plates and...

    Replacing Bushings On LA724 Loader

    I was thinking of replacing the bushings on the bottom of my loader.I am not even sure if the bushings are designed to be replaced or if Kubota offers them as a separate part.Has anybody ever replaced these bushings and if so how hard was it to do?I tried to tap them out without destroying them...

    I recently started noticing a banging or snapping noise in my tractor.After listening for it I noticed it was happening when changing direction forward or backward and seemed to be in the back of the tractor.Naturally I started to think the worst.The tractor is an L3240 with 580 hours.I finally...

    Bucket Lip

    I just finished adding a lip to the top of my bucket to help keep the dirt in it.Not sure of the proper name for it but I will call it a spill guard.I didn't like the dirt falling out the back of the bucket and hitting the tractor.Quite often rocks would fall and get jammed in the bucket...

    First Impressions Of Fine Cut Deck

    Used my new BX2360 to mow the yard for the first time yesterday.It has a 54 inch fine cut deck.Two years ago I had a BX25 with a 54 inch regular cut deck.The fine cut deck does seem to cut the clippings up smaller.I couldn't see any difference in the quality of cut as both decks give a very high...
