For anyone interested in saving a few bucks, Kubota is offering a few different coupons good until 12/31/12 at Parts Coupons. The coupons are for fluids, filter kits and battery replacements.

I wanted to pass this along in case anyone else has their KTAC insurance renewal due this month. I received a call from a lady at KTAC and she asked if I had received my renewal notice yet. I informed her that I hadn't and she stated that they had some issues sending them out and that my renewal...

I've had my Ratchet Rake for 2 1/2 years and just recently purchased my Woods rotary cutter. What a team the two make cleaning up my woods. Now that I am in maintenance mode on our small horse farm finally, I have some time for some not so necessary tasks. I forgot to take the before pictures...

Since the BX models have turnbuckles on the inside of the 3PH, the lower links want to collapse inward which makes connecting a rotary cutter harder. I don't want to purchase a quick hitch or a Pats w/stabilizer since I have spent a lot of money recently on implements and upgrades. For those of...

In my last thread, I mentioned that I ordered the BXpanded Quick-On Work Light kit after having issues operating my BH in the dark using a cheap magnetic work light. The lights arrived in two days in perfect condition. timswi mentioned in that same thread that he was going to look into these...

I purchased my BX24 three years ago to perform many duties on our small horse farm. One of the duties I had hoped to never have to do was to dig a grave for one of our horses. Unfortunately, this past Thursday evening, one of my wife's horses had a severe case of colic and she had to put her...

I thought I would share some information for any of you BXpanded Tool Pouch owners that bought them before they were discontinued. The tool pouch can still be mounted on the back of the seat if you also install the B/BX arm rests. I held off on buying the arm rests because I didn't think the two...

Did a search but didn't come up with anything. This is my first issue with this tractor after owning it for 3 years. After restarting my tractor in my garage, after removing my FEL, I backed out and noticed a trail of fluid. My HST dip stick was gone. I found the dip stick in the horse paddock...

Next door neighbor (20 years my senior and I really don't know them) has had a dump truck load of recycled asphalt sitting beside his gravel driveway for 3 months compacting on its own weight. They have a relative that owns a much larger Deere, so I never thought to offer my assistance. I passed...

Today while spreading lime and fertilizer on my two horse pastures, each time I got off the seat to refill the spreader, the tractor wanted to shut off. I knew the issue was with the PTO but today, I just couldn't find the sweet spot on the lever for the engine to not die. I shut the tractor...

I finally bit the bullet and purchased 3 BXpanded brush/pallet forks for my BX24. After reading many posts about what others were able to accomplish with them, I decided to buy them to assist with my cleanup around my small horse farm/woods. Once it dries up some, I'll put them to use.

I performed my first radiator flush and fill today on my BX24 and had problems with the radiator drain plug. Once I finally found it, I had no easy access to it. I thought it was going to be a bolt type plug but it was a rubber cap with a pinch clamp. My question is - has anyone successfully...

This question is for my BIL that is not a member of TBN (yet). He ran his B5100E out of fuel and it won't restart. Could someone please respond on how to bleed the fuel system to get it to start again. I have never owned an older tractor, so I only know how to do it on my BX. Thanks for any...

I thought I would share a stupid moment I had today while performing my 300 hr service on my BX24, hopefully this will keep someone else from doing this. The 300 hr service on a BX24 calls for all fluids and filters to be changed/cleaned. Early in the process, I took my air filter (6 months...

You guys think this is acceptable ballast for a BX24?:D The boss thought I was crazy for stopping and taking a picture of my "ballast" but I told her you guys like pictures. For those wondering why I loaded my tractor up like this with hay, it's too soft in some areas to get my trailer near...

I finally purchased the BXpanaded Hydraulic Pressure Test and Adjust Kit Hydraulic Pressure Test and Adjust Kit. For those of us that have limited to no knowledge of hydraulics, this kit is nice to have. I have bought other great products from Harry at BXpanded but never did purchase this kit...

I'm getting ready to pull the trigger (finally) on a toothbar for my BX24 and just thought of something that I need to ask first. For those of you that own a toothbar, are there any issues with removing your FEL with the toothbar still attached? Just wondering if the toothbar throws off the...

Need some advice please before I waste my hard earned money. Just found the attached Jacobsen PTO Slit Seeder on craigslist for $1500. Below is what the post said: PTO Driven, 3 point hitch seeder, 4 ft. wide, front roller, cutting teeth, rear disc blades, seed box. Works great! Will pay for...

Before I changed both fuel filters on my BX24 today, I had searched a few different times on TBN for a good thread on what to expect during the service. I really didn't find one that explained any details for those of us that are sorta mechanically challenged. Even reading the operators manual...

After almost a year of my tractor sitting under a make shift roof and sorta getting wet, I finally purchased a new 12'X24' garage. Now I need a proper ramp (couldn't wait to put it inside, so I used car ramps) and shelving to put inside. The first picture was it's former home. Now I can finally...

I was going to hold off on posting this until the possible repair was complete but this morning, I received a very interesting phone call from my Kubota Regional Rep. He informed me that my inquiry to Kubota Corp (sent an email about one month ago) was heard and being acted on. I asked Kubota...

For those of us in the Mid-Atlantic area, we are finally supposed to get some snow this evening. Possibly up to 13" tonight!! Can't wait to clear some snow in the morning.:D

I waited a month to post this question because I really didn't know how to describe my issue. Each time I leave my throttle running at 2100 RPM's, I hear a fairly loud clattering noise coming from the engine area. The clattering description is the best I can come up with, it also sorta sounds...

Recently, I have developed an annoying squeak in my left front end of my BX24. I can't find where it's coming from even though I can reproduce the squeak with the tractor off. I can move the tractor side to side by pushing on the FEL frame and hear the noise. All FEL zerks have been greased this...

In case anyone was wondering if a BX24 could handle a post hole digger, I just completed our last section of exterior fence line using a Leinbach 7200JR PHD. All fencing previously was completed using a friend's hydraulic post hole driver. Since I bought my BX in June, I wanted to complete this...

I have a Kubota BX24 and finally attached my Leinbach 7200JR post hole digger. The PHD was purchased with a 9" auger but the auger doesn't have a good bit at the end to start the digging process. The cutting edges aren't very well made either. I went to TSC and bought a 12" auger made by FIMCO...

While visiting my parents this week in Tennessee, I sat on my first older style seat (or should I say "padded bananna") on my fathers B7800. I have read many older posts about this seat and couldn't believe how bad it is until I actually sat on one. I informed him about the old seat replacement...

Not sure the protocol on this type of post but I wanted everyone to know the great customer service I recieved from Harry at BXpanded. I couple of weeks ago, I ordered the BH Dolly, Quick-On Grab Hooks and the seat pouch. All three are great products. Today in the mail, I received a small...

I thought I bit off more than me and my BX24 could chew after I started this project but with patience and a good axe, I was able to remove this stump. The roots ended up being longer and wider than I thought. I probably should have dug further out from the stump but with little experience, I...

I just completed my 50 hour service on my BX24 (without too many mishaps!) and was going to go ahead and perform the same service on my RCK60B23BX mower deck. I lubricated all grease fittings and then was going to change out the gear oil. I looked at the manual and it showed the drain plug on...

Is it normal for a BX24's (or any other tractor's) steering wheel to change positions while in operation? What I mean by this is that when I start using the tractor for the day, my steering wheel spinner may start in the 12 o'clock position while driving straight but within a few minutes of...

I am a brand new owner (30 hrs in 3 weeks) of a 2008 BX24. This is the first tractor I've owned, so I am trying to learn everything as fast as possible. What is the recommended engine RPM when using the MMM. I have a 60" MMM and mow 5 acres of horse pastures. Right now, the grass/weeds are...
