And triangular shaped are better yet.LOL

How did you get that clip of my neighbor? LOL

Thanks.

There is a Kioti 3 point hitch tiller on my local Craigslist for sale. It's a model RT2042. The asking price is $1700. Being only 42 inches wide, I think it would be a good match for my Kubota BX25D, which has 17.4 HP at the PTO. It looks to be very lightly used, and in nice shape. I was just...

Last fall, or late summer, I helped my son clear an area on his property of some brush that had taken over a rather large flat. While we were working he showed me an electric Echo chain saw that he had purchased at a Home Depot in a neighboring state, some months earlier. I tried a few cuts with...

Thank you. Yes I agree with you 100%.

Thanks for the reply, JWR. The different tillers I've looked at on line, usually quote the tilling depth in the specs. One that I liked the looks of at Tractor Supply is a 48 inch made by Tarter. It says it tills up to 7" Deep.

Just wondering if there are some BX25D owners on TBN that till with them. I'm thinking of a tiller for this spring, and wondering what is a good match for that tractor. From what I've read, 48 is probably the maximum width tiller for the BX25? I'd like to be able to till at least 6 inches deep...

I could never figure out why Harbor Freight continues to drag themselves down with their "Junk Lines" of tools. They have some decent lines of tools, and not being a professional, I buy those often, but some of their stuff I can't understand why they even produce it? Like Willman said, "pure...

If there was a "No Burn Order" in effect, I'd say your neighbor is in deep do-do. You want at least enough to cover your losses.

Sounds like the post is a scam.

I found these on eBay: For Kubota BX B John Deere 1025R Crawler Magnetic Tractor Mirrors Pair 228LB | eBay I just received them, and they work great for me on my Kubota BX 25D. I had gotten a pair from "Extreme Metal Products" a couple years ago and paid the ridiculous amount of $71.99 a pair...

My suggestion is to go to Interstate Battery if you have a shop near you? They only do batteries, and they're good at what they do and sell. Just my .02 cents worth.

Key word is MAY. Let us know when your's go down.

How old is the battery? I still say it's toast.

Thanks Yander

What is the negative on a Shear-pin model? I am also looking at a Befco. I believe it's a 150-t30. It's used, but very lightly used.

What little hair I have left is red (or was once), and I resemble that remark. LOL

Nylon lifting slings in different lengths.

Good to know. Thank you.

I am thinking of selling my 2009 Kubota RTV 900. I own it, and a Kubota BX 25DBL tractor. I bought the RTV first, and used it for snow removal, moving firewood, pulling my lawn sweeper and some easy trail riding, but since I bought the tractor, I find that the RTV sits a lot more than it is...

This is the ONLY way to sell on Craigslist, IMHO.

The Buds are the chasers, for the Cheerios.😁

Thanks JWR. Much appreciated.

Hey Jon, What I thought was a cold and/or flu, turned out to be Covid. Both my wife and I tested positive on the 6th. I would like to send you a private message, but I don't know that procedure. I'd like to show you what we did in pictures with that shaft, but I don't know how to post pix...

Hey Jon, Last Friday I started coming down with some kind of a cold/flu situation, so I haven't done anything since we talked last. I called my Doc's office today, and I'm going to have a phone appointment at 6:30 tonight with him. Hopefully he'll get me something to break up this dry hacking...

So with the blower I have (BX2750, and the Male Quick Hitch and SubFrame, BX2751) If I change out the existing Output Shaft (Part # 70001-00772) to the longer Output Shaft ( part #70060-02728), I should be OK? Thanks, Tom

Thanks NHBX. Yes I brought those drawings up on the Messick's site.

So Jon, I'm not sure I'm understanding what you're saying? If the bearing arrangements are a bit different as well as shaft length, it isn't just a matter of swapping out the different shafts?

My son expressed the same concerns you did, pretty much word for word.

So I ended up buying this BX2750 snow blower that a gal had used on her BX2200 tractor, which I believe she said was a 2003? After getting my hands on it, I find that the output shaft from the BX2751 sub frame quick hitch is short, by about 3 inches. And that is exactly why NHBX steered me...

Thank you for your reply. Looks like worst case scenario is a different shaft.

Thank you, Jon

Thanks George

I don't doubt for a minute that she has all the necessary hardware, and could put her hands on it instantly. You kinda get a feeling about people when you listen to them. She knew her tractor inside and out, and has been installing this thing for winters, for years, and removing it at season's...

I have a 2016 BX 25D and I've been looking for a used BX2750, front mount, 50" snowblower. One showed up on Craigslist today, that was used on, and purchased with, a BX2200 tractor back in 2003. The owner says she's had some back problems, and can no longer do the yearly installation and...

(y)

I really enjoy watching Paul and Kathy's videos. They are both very talented. I did see their step for mounting the tractor. I just haven't gotten around to order it, but I didn't know about the backhoe steps until you told me about them in your reply. I'm going to order both. Thanks for your...

Yeah, this guy has a Kubota BX 2370 with a Front End Loader and a 48 inch Box Blade (Land Pride) and he's asking $16,500 for the package. I asked if he'd separate, and he said he would, selling the Box Blade for $850. I haven't called the dealer yet to see what the new price is for one.

I have the cordless sawzall. It's an older Craftsman, 19.2 volt, C3# powered. The thing is tougher than nails. Been through the wars and back, and still going strong. I don't know how it would compare with the new 20 volt ones from DeWalt or Milwaukee. I guess I'll find out when it dies. I...

Thanks rScotty. I'm laughing to myself because I know what you said is very true. It will surely be an educational deal for me. Thank you for all your advice and info, on the box blade, too. Tom

Thanks for the info. Much appreciated.

Thank you.

Thanks fp.

Thank you for your reply. I've had the tractor out there with no problems on getting stuck. I'm just thinking that putting that weight on those small square feet without something bigger under them, I'm just thinking they'd go under pretty easil? Maybe I'm worried about nothing? Thanks for the...

I have a couple acres that are typically pretty wet, but with the dry conditions we've had this year, I think I'll be able to remove some stumps from small trees I've take down over the last 3 or 4 years, with my backhoe on the BX25D. One concern I have is, even though the area has dried out...

Thank you, I will.

Thanks Jim. Lots of good reasons to stay with R4s

The last time I took it to the shop, they said it was the valve stem and they replaced it. They said they "got it" that time. It's no different, though. I add air weekly. I bought a JACO low tire air pressure gauge, to track it. I believe the rim is bent or deformed. It'll go back again this...

Yes that's way bigger than my little BX tractor, but still, I think there's a lot more to this than I envisioned. I think I'll just stay with the R4s, and myabe just replace the leaker. Thanks for your reply.

Thanks. I wasn't aware of that. If that's the case, I probably will stay with the R4s

Thanks for your reply. I'll let you know if I get a price.

Thanks. I got a kick outa " I'm cheap and broke". Ain't we all.

Thanks for your reply

Good point. Yes, I could do that. One of my front ones, though, the right, is a chronic leaker, and it's been to the shop a few times, and though they say it's cured, it goes soft over a month's time. But you're right. I could put up with it for awhile longer, and put the new ones all on at one...

I bought a used 2016 BX25D last year that had 200 hrs on it. I have put on just over 100 hrs on it since I've owned it, for a total of slightly over 300 on the meter. It has the R4 Industrial Tires, all the way around. For no other reason than appearance, I was thinking of going to Turf Tires...

My tractor is a little Kubota BX25D. That's why I was looking at the 4 footers. I think a 5 foot cutter would be a bit too much for that little tractor. Thanks for your reply.

You're exactly right. I'm looking for a 4 footer (48 inch) because it will be used with a Kubota BX25D. I think a 5 footer would really be pushing the weight limit and the HP needed to run it. What little acreage I have to do with it really doesn't require a heavy duty cutter. Plus, I don't...

If you go to the Woods web site, the BB48.03 is listed under their "Premium" line of Rotary Cutters. The other line is the "Standard" grade, so I don't believe this model, BB48.03, is in their entry level or economy line. I think what he is asking, $2,175, is probably fair when you look at other...

Thanks Jeff.

Yes, I looked at Tractor House, too.

Is $2,175 a good deal for a Woods Brush Bull (BB48.30)? It's one year old (2021), and according to the seller, it was used a total of 1 hour. It looks spotless. He said he bought it to clear a 1 acre lot to build his new house on, and he has no further use for it. I don't know a lot about the...

Thanks for your reply. As I said in my original post, I was thinking of using Kubota Standard UDT, as opposed to the Super UDT2. Both are Kubota products. I just wasn't sure if UDT was recommended by Kubota for the bed lift cylinder and pump, but since Richard posted a copy of Kubota's...

Thank you again!!

Thanks rScotty. I appreciate your reply.

Thanks Richard. I bought my RTV used, and no manuals came with it. I've got to go on line and get an owners manual. Thanks for your reply.

On my BX25DLB the Hydraulics and the HST transmission do share the same fluid, but on the RTV900, there are separate resivoirs for each. Thank you for your reply.

I have a 2009 Kubota RTV 900, and I'm currently doing some routine maintenance ie. engine oil and filter change, air filter (inner and outer) cartridges, transmission fluid and filter, engine coolant check and lastly, the hydraulic oil & filter for the bed lift. Since that oil only powers that...

Thank you. I did find it there.

Thank you. I will make a note of that.

Thank you.

Thanks for all the replies. I was obviously remembering something other than front wheel torque with the 68 ft/lbs figure.

I bought a used BX25D back in the spring, and both front tires are slow leakers. Every 2 1/2 or 3 weeks, both are low. I tolerated it all summer, and inflated when necessary, but I'm tired of that routine. I pulled the tires today, and hope to have them re-beaded tomorrow at my local...

Thanks for the info.

During one of my searches on YouTube (at least I think that's where it was) I saw a guy that had built a "Caddy" to store his 60 inch deck in for the winter. I've looked, but I can't find it now. It stores the deck up on edge, so it takes much less floor space. It seems like a pretty simple...

Thanks.

Thank you.

$46.65 was for a 3 blade set. (3) 20 inch blades for a 60 inch deck. My math says $15.55 each. Right now at Messick's a 3 blade set for mine are $55.75 or $18.60 each. Messick's always beats the tar out of my local dealer on pricing. I'd rather pay shipping than deal with the south end of a...

I bought a set of replacement blades for my BX25D, 60 inch deck on Ebay. I think you can buy directrly from the vendor without going through Ebay, though. The vendor is "Pro Parts Plus". The blades they sell are XHT blades. The letters stand for Xtreme Hardness Toughness. If you check out their...

I have a 1980 Troy Bilt Horse that I rebuilt and repowered with a 7 HP Kohler, a couple years ago. And it works wonderfully. But at 67, I'm not going to tackle a 30' X 50' garden, 20 inches at a pass.;)

I'm thinking of buying a rototiller for my BX25D, and I thought I'd ask here for some advice. They seem to be pretty scarce, so all of my looking has been on line, only. I'm thinking I'd want the slip clutch protection rather than shear bolt, yes? And I'm thinking the width of the tiller...

Thanks Jon.

Thanks for your help. I appreciate that.

I think it is my heel that's causing the problem, also. I've had my right knee replaced, and for some reason, this treadle pedal feels awkward for me. I'm just going to have to be more conscious of it, but I think I will try a little of that 3M Super Spray 90 adhesive that you mentioned earlier...

No, I forgot to mention that. There was nothing attached to the rear PTO. I'm not sure what the heck happened? It was a strange few seconds, for sure. The tractor is new to me. I bought it, used, this past spring. I think not being 100% familiar with everything, accounts for a lot of my not...

Thank you for your help. I found the 3M product that you mentioned, on line. I will try that one. I'm not sure if my heel is catching the reverse pedal, just right or what? I have made sure it's seated in the groove, each time I re-attach it, and after some use, it's worked its way off...

I was lawn mowing last Friday with my BX25D mid mount deck. I was mowing around some spruce trees with low hanging branches. All of a sudden the tractor began to shudder and the RPM seemed to drop quickly, and then quite abruptly, it stalled out. At the time, I couldn't figure out what happened...

Go to Ebay, and in the search box, punch in Kubota BX inner tie rod boots. They're far better than the garbage that Kubota puts on as OEM. I just changed mine on my BX25D. The Ebay boots are way tougher and thicker, and easy to install. Good Luck.

I'll have to look closer. I probably have the same on mine? Hopefully, that's all it'll take. Thanks for your help.

I'm sure this has been discussed before (?) , but I have a BX25 that I bought used back in March. I'm having a problem keeping the rubber pedal covers on the treadle pedal "REVERSE" side, and the little circular parking brake pedal cover. I just had to re-order the parking brake cover because it...

Yes it does, Willy. Thanks for replying.

Good Lord. Does time fly or what? Pretty darn near a month since I started this thread. I just want to update a bit. Between lots of other chores and miserable weather here in the Northeast USA, I am just getting my "new to me" Orange BX25DLB cleaned, and up to date on services. While the seller...

Just wanted to update, I did pick up the little BX25D last Friday, but not before buying a brand new "Big Tex" 16 foot, dual axle trailer, but that's a whole other story. I haven't stopped smiling since I got the BX. I absolutely love it. I will get some pictures posted soon. I'm really looking...

Going to pick it up on Friday. Really looking forward to getting it home. Love to read posts like your's when you're looking for confidence booster on making the right choice. Thanks.

Good Point. My son suggested the same thing.

Thank you fellas for the "YES" replies on being a good buy. I thought it was, too, for sure, and I'm glad you agree. I have told the seller I am going to take it, and I'm really looking forward to getting it home. I think it'll do everything I want it to, and more. Probably, I'll add a 48 inch...

Is $14,000 a "good buy" for a 2017 Kubota BX25D? It has 213 hrs. on the meter, and it's equipped with the FEL, Back-Hoe and 60 inch belly mower. It looks to be immaculate, and the original owner says it's been used "gently".

I apologize in advance if this is a question that's been asked several times in the past, but here goes: How closely do Kubota dealers stick to the number that you can arrive at, by using their "Build My Kubota" price tool on their web site? I assume it is a MSRP number? Do they still have room...

I am about to pull the trigger on a 2019 BX 1880. The owner/seller says he purchased it in May 2019, for $17,500. It has 50 hours on the meter, and he's offering it for $12,000. It is equipped with a 54" Kubota mid-mount mower, and a front end loader bucket, with lever release. The 1880 is a...

There is a 2014 Kubota BX 1880 with 148 hours for sale on C/L for $11,999. Included is a 48 inch mid mount mower, front end loader and a 50" front mount snow blower. How would you guys rate the buy? Is it a great buy, that I shouldn't pass up? Is it an average buy, that I shouldn't get too...

I have a Bush Hog SQ 160 that I purchased, used, a few years ago. The area that I intended to use it in (or on) proved to be too wet for my son's Kubota L 3800. I got stuck a couple times and decided to go with a DR walk behind cutter. So the Bush Hog has been sitting a couple years. I have an...

My son has an L3800 (I think that's the Model #). It has the quick detach FEL. What would be necessary to install a log grapple, besides the grapple itself?

We (wife and I) are about to close on a home that sits on 4.75 acres, of which 3 acres are currently being mowed. I have been maintaining the property for the last 2 years. I have been mowing the 3 acres with a John Deere LX 277 with a 17 HP Kawasaki engine and a 48 inch. On average, it's a 3...
