    Proper Hitch for Using Chain Harrow?

    I use a cat 0 drawbar with cat 1 pins from TSC on the lower links of my 3 point and attach the harrow with one of these. It won't spin. That extends it out far enough that I can easily see what is happening when making a turn, but not so far that the harrow will just sit there while the tractor...

    small pond question????

    I have a very small pond that I repaired last year. It was an old irrigation pond at one time but the earth dam was breached or removed before we got our place and it was a mess. After I got my tractor I cleared the weeds, brush and trees, then repaired the dam, put in a 4" pipe overflow, and...

    Tiller Play by play------1st order from Everything Attachments

    Well, I set up the tiller today and hooked it up to my HF quick hitch. My measurements were terrible so I had to adjust the lower link spacing twice to get it perfect! I did not have to cut the PTO shaft at all as I had 3" of clearance thanks to the quick hitch. I used it today to till a new...

    Tiller  Play by play------1st order from Everything Attachments

    I decided to order a 48" Phoenix rototiller after checking around in my local area and not finding the features I wanted or finding them, but at a price that I was not willing to pay. I've watched just about every video by Ted and felt that they had what I wanted at a reasonable price. I felt...

    Help me pick a toothbar!

    I have a piranha toothbar on my BX25 and am extremely happy with it. It is thick and fits under the bucket lip in addition to sticking out front. I have given it a pretty good workout both digging and ripping out hundreds of mostly 2" saplings. It has not dented, chipped or bent. It is still...

    3-Point Hitch  Telescoping Stabilizers

    I received my telescoping stabilizers for my BX25 from Mark Hodge today. They are really nice and are going to make 3 point hitch maneuvers a bit easier. The quality is outstanding. Mark is a frequent contributor of his wisdom and experience to this forum. (http://www.stabilworks.com/) Thanks Mark!

    Thinking of growing some blueberries

    Here's what our blueberry "cage" looked like in progress. My wife got tired of the birds cleaning us out and our first attempt, which you can see the remains of in the upper left, failed during a heavy snow. This framing is made from 3/4" PVC pipe and fittings and then covered with 5' high...

    3-Point Hitch BX25 3 point lowering question

    Here's the latest. I adjusted the hydraulic fluid level to what it should be. I had to remove some of the fluid that I put in yesterday using a turkey baster as it was overfilled. It is now at the correct dipstick level. My height measurement to the center of the lower link ball is also 9...

    3-Point Hitch  BX25 3 point lowering question

    I have the Kubota ballast box for my BX25 and it won't lower enough to sit on the ground for removal. I have to put 4 X 4's or cement blocks under it to set it down. I also spent a short time trying to get my Brinly cat 0 3 point one bottom plow set up and couldn't get it to go deep enough. It...

    Ag tires and BX25?

    Does anyone know why Kubota doesn't list AG tires (R1) as an option for the BX25. When I was researching my tractor I knew I wanted turf tires as my main set. However, they lose traction when doing FEL work in wet soil and I'd probably get more off lawn use out of AG's than a compromise tire...

    Got a "Piranha" toothbar from BXpanded

    Well! Today I received my "Piranha" toothbar from BXpanded. I read about it on this forum and was impressed with what I saw and read. Since it was not yet listed on their web page, I contacted them by email inquiring about price and shipping to Pittsburgh, PA. Harry promptly answered with a...

    That was easy!

    Ok, finally here are the photos of the new tractor. Today was the first time I had a chance to even look at the tractor since it was delivered last Friday. The weather has been so wet that even with the 4 X 4 the tires would just spin in some soft areas on a slope. I did get a chance to push...

    That was easy!

    The BX25 arrived late this afternoon (4:00PM) 2/10/12. I got the show & tell from Vince who sold and delivered it to me, and then I parked it and promptly covered it with a tarp because of the impending snow that is forcast. I totally forgot to take a picture until 5 minutes ago. I only got to...

    That was easy!

    Wow! I've been wanting a tractor since we moved into this house 16 years ago, but out of necessity, I just bought and used what I needed to get by. Needless to say, I did a lot of work by hand. We started out with a Yardman 15 hp mower which went through 3 hst transmissions before I gave up and...
