    Pro / Cons of KTAC?

    those of you that have ktac, did you get a copy of your ktac policy with your equipment listed when you purchased? been trying to get a copy of my policy, and been getting the run around. i've contacted both ktac and kubota financing, and both have stated "it's not us, it'd the other one that...

    Pro / Cons of KTAC?

    So, ended up with a new loader, with me paying the difference on the price of a new loader today, vs what i paid 4 years ago + my $250 deductible. Still a pretty good chunk of $$, but better than not having it insured at all.

    Pro / Cons of KTAC?

    My dealer is like a 2nd or 3rd generation dealer, with about 5 stores in my area, been around forever. I think Moses bought his 1st tractor there.

    Pro / Cons of KTAC?

    Appreciate the reply. The claims adjuster didn't say anything about that. Said they would either replace loader, and I'd pay the difference between what i paid and price for a new one. 2nd option would be they'd take what they'll pay for a replacement and pay towards my loan. Then I'd pay, out...

    Pro / Cons of KTAC?

    I'm dealing with something similar. After filing a ktac claim, dealer says i need a new loader. Ktac says they MIGHT do a replacement with me paying the difference for a new loader. But what they usually do, is apply what they'd pay for my loader to my loan, and i pay out of my pocket, total...

    betstco flail mower

    I know this is a very old thread, but what do you think about the 48" heavy duty Bestco flail? That's the model I'm looking at getting fir my bx2380. Either the heavy duty or next step down. Would you buy it again? Any thing else you can say about it? What did you use to run it? Thanks

    WANTED LEFT CAB GLASS DOOR for 2015 BRANSON 6640c

    Good luck. I went through this trying to replace a full windshield on a rinker boat. Was impossible to find original windshield. State farm ended up totalling the boat out, mainly because original windshield couldn't be replaced. Boat dealership was unable to find it either. Very frustrating.

    LED

    Yes, headlights arr useless if using the fel. I did swap my headlight bulbs for led's. Bx2380. They are much brighter, but only useful if i remove fel.

    Is there already wiring “hidden” on a BX2360 for aux lights?

    Is that the one wrapped in blue tape? There is a plug under rear left fender wrapped in blue tape. Every bx I've ever looked at has this. This is a contant power? I bought some lights that have an on/off switch built into the wiring that came with them.

    RK24 vs 37: Steep gravel driveway question

    Also, not sure what grade my driveway is. It's about 400ft total with about 30ft a pretty steep hill, going from my house up to the road. Steep enough that any 2wd vehicle gets stuck if there's ANY snow. Anyway, my bx2380 will pull my 4ft boxblade, full of gravel, up the hill. In 4lo, locked...

    Bx2380 hydraulic hose rubbing mmm belt

    Just like the title says, my mower belt has rubbed a spot on these 2 hoses. Obviously, it would only happen when I'm mowing with the deck all the way up, which is rare. But, it does happen. I bought this new last year. My bx1800 that I had for almost 18 years never had this issue. I'm...

    It was a rainy day, so...

    I figured I'd go ahead and paint it. Turned out pretty good, but i probably went a little overboard. It's roughly 650lbs, almost 10 60lb bags of concrete and some rebar. It's amazing what adding additional weight does for working the tractor.

    Guess I'm calling the dealer

    Brand new bx2380. Has about 15 hours on it. Just removed the fel about a week ago, for the 1st time. Just spent about 1.5 hours trying to get it back on. I'm doing it inside my garage, which is about as level as i can get. The left side will hook up, but the right isn't anywhere close. The more...

    Here's mine. Still have a little work to do to it to clean it up how i want it. About 9.5 60lb bags of quickcrete, and this make a **** of a difference on my bx. The chainsaw holder turned out better than i thought. Just wished i lined it up even with the toplink. Now, just clean it up, a...

    Homemade ballast

    Finally got it on the tractor and took it for a spin. Still need to pull some tape and clean up the top rim/edge. I liked the way the chainsaw holder came, just wished i had centered it with the toplink. Now, maybe, some orange paint.

    ok guys, this is a newbie question, so don't kill me. i've never had a loader so i'm just asking the experts. my last tractor, bx1800, when i would mow with the mmm, i would run the rpm wide open. it seem to cut better, and disperse the clippings the farthest. but on my bx2380, and i've seen on...

Also looked at the branson 2510, but that's probably bigger than i need, but ****, the branson is a heavy built tractor. I want to run a small grapple when not using...
