    LS Tractor Won't Start After Hooking Up Bush Hog

    Here's my "two cents worth" -- obviously -- "something changed"! IF it was working fine when you box bladed your drive and the only difference is hooking up to your Bush Hog and now you can't get it running and have tried everything safety switch wise with no luck -- disconnect the Bush Hog and...

    Buying on Ebay

    Do you have/use PayPal? I buy quite a bit {am now almost ALWAYS staying away from anything selling on Fakebook as most are SCAMS! unless I can go directly to their website} and will ALWAYS use PayPal or PayPal Credit {I like the option of 6 months FREE} and if there is ever a problem {I have two...

    Adhesive for nylon in radiator bottom

    As radiator repairs can sure be a PITA {Pain In The A$$!} due to fix/install/fill/try/remove/repeat -- I'd sure want it cleaned in detail before trying anything. Looks like Dremel Tool with small stone to clean/open crack and around entire area to be "glued" then use an adhesive that is flexible...

    The main reasons I have passed on two so far -- hydraulic hoses and fittings have become like gold!

    Man Lift

    I definitely like the concrete soffit idea and will check into that. Thanks.

    Man Lift

    This might be a shot in the dark, but here goes. I have a squirrel issue with the vinyl soffit on my two story house. I'm not for killing them as I feed deer, turkey, fox, cats, birds etc. and they are fun to watch -- just like all the rest. BUT -- they chew holes in my vented soffit and build...

    Mirror recommendations for open station tractor

    I found some on eBay that are advertised as for a golf cart that are adjustable, easy to mount and work great. I mounted two {one each side of my canopy} but they can be installed anywhere. They were about $6 each as I remember. AND -- get a good Inversion Table {I finally bought a Teeter as the...

    Kubota B20 bucket "blade"

    I saw a "stump/root rake" on here and have a Kubota B20 with a 56" front bucket and am interested in learning more if anyone can help. As I live in Arkansas and there are over two rocks around here :D and I do move gravel {varying sizes} from time to time, I'd like something that will hold up to...

    Thanks for the link -- I was going to order one, but they don't offer "Prime" and want another $10 for shipping.

    Trailer Weight Distribution

    Been pulling trailers for over 55 years of all sizes and kinds. Here of late most is with a double axle {6K lb each} 14' trailer I made for my asphalt business in '82 with my Kubota B20 and always pull it on -- never back it on. Although I like "LittleBill21"'s comments, I don't recommend...

    Kubota BX 2230 motor 4WD with PTO/lift/hyd deck lift

    Thanks, Dave, for your reply. I'm thinking I'll start taking it apart to find out what happened -- then decide. I have never welded a hole in a block, maybe it's time.

    Kubota BX 2230 motor 4WD with PTO/lift/hyd deck lift

    WELL -- here's my problem: My church bought this tractor YEARS ago as some ground is soft and it had fairly good maintenance while the older gentleman was taking care of the ground. When he got too feeble, others tried to mow etc. with it and other than the deck {concrete curb stops, curbing...

    Mowing Bushhog question.... rear or front discharge?

    25+ years ago I bought my Bush Hog cutter and it too had front discharge. After using it for a short time and having more CRAP on my tractor {and me!} I torched the back open with angles down both sides. I left the back about an inch or so then welded a piece of 3/8" rebar from side to side for...

    5ft brush hog on a 25hp compact

    Here's my "two cents worth": In/around 1995 I bought a 1991 Kubota B20 from a local equipment rental company. It had about 1500 hours on it {as I remember} and one can imagine that those who rented it weren't too interested in its care! Does "rode hard/put away wet" ring any bells?! I bought a...

    Portable Jump Starter

    I too have had a few "Jump Starters" and really didn't like the size of the first two or three -- just too big for my storage between uses. I found one that I still use that had a "BOOST" button on it and the circuit inside crapped out so I cut it open, removed the circuit board and direct...

    hp needed

    Lot of great comments with this -- here's my "two cents worth" -- depending on the size of area you are cutting {if it's several acres of BIG stuff, time might be an issue} I will raise my Bush Hog for a first pass, then lower to what I would like it to end up as. Also, if you have a loader you...

    Dealer Prep Time on New Tractor

    Here's my take on this -- go sit down eye to eye with the owner/owners and being as nice as possible, let them know your position i.e. -- I paid good hard-earned money for this tractor and even a little more than from another location due to have done business with you three other times. Is...

    Driving tractor with the front end loader bucket elevated .

    As most of my "Bush Hogging Jobs" are more like land clearing work {REALLY tall brush and saplings} I keep my bucket as close to the ground as possible to "find" stumps etc.

    Grease shortage

    I believe I have the answer to your grease problem that will solve it forever. I switched to a "custom grease" that is distributed by a friend of mine locally who also offers "oil analyses" {you can do the same thing with grease} and he supplies lubricants to other countries as well --...

    Hydraulic issue/issues

    While doing some bush hogging last fall I experienced a weakness in my front end loader, bush hog up/down and forward/reverse from the hydrostatic transmission. I have removed/cleaned/inspected the "front" pump {drives off the crankshaft} gone through the "block" {found a stuck "diverter valve"...

    1990 Kubota B20 charging problem

    I have a Kubota B20 that I have owned since 7/95 and now have a charging problem. I have removed the alternator and took it to the shop who said they know of no way to test it. The bearings feel solid and the guy said he has been told "if it's turning, it's producing electricity" and they don't...

    Kubota B-20 with BT750 backhoe

    I have a 750 backhoe that intermittently won't swing. I tap on the "control unit" {#78621-7345} and it will swing. Sometimes I have to tap on it several times and hard. I would like to replace it but am not interested in paying $700 for one. Anyone know where a good used one can be found? I can...
