I picked up a generator out of a bus that has a Kubota V2203 engine in it. The little thumb screw on the fuel bleeder valve is sheared off. This is the valve on the injector pump. Looks like lots of aftermarket choices on Ebay, but I'm not sure which bleeder valve fits as the valve listings...

Does anyone else suffer from having residual grease left behind the plunger when your gun runs out? Seems like everytime I change tubes and I retract the spring loaded rod, grease escapes past the plunger and oozes and oozes out of the hole the rod slides through. I end up "wasting" a lot of...

I would recommend and buy another BW180 in a heartbeat. We have used ours similar to what you describe. 60 -70 acres of rolling pasture and some steep hillsides. It leaves a beautiful cut. Here's a picture of ours brand new just before it was initiated. Notice the new paint still on the...

I could probably be fine with a smaller hp and the batwing, but I wanted to have plenty of power. Xring100 is right on. For most of the cutting I do, the 9540 hardly knows it is behind it. However, I've have cut some buckgrass as tall as my windsheild wiper on the cab and the engine slowly...

Again this isn't a Deere, but here's a picture of how I load up with an M9540 and 15' shredder. I know I'm way overweight. I just take it nice and slow and prepare to stop way in advance. As was already stated, I would definitely recommend a deck-over for that size tractor/loader -...

Ovrszd, I know when I bought mine (bracket and weights) from the dealer, the weights and bracket were exactly what the 'Build it now' price was, and that was before we did a little negotiatin'. I would say it should be very close. The 'Build it now' price is supposed to be MSRP. Here's a...

I like the BW180. It is the best cutter for the money in my opinion. Can't beat the quality of cut. We have a DS96 and we liked it so much, that kind of pushed us toward the Woods. Only 1 thing that I don't care for. The hydraulic lines are left hanging over the hitch/PTO shaft when coming...

Got some major seat time with the M9540 and 15' Woods BW180 this weekend. Thought I'd share some pics.

Just an update with some pics on hauling the BW over to the farm. We hauled the BW over Friday morning with a 3/4 ton Chevy. As you can tell from the pic, it's little heavy in the rear but it pulled just fine and speed was kept to a minimum so we had no problems whatsoever. On the way back...

I have a Kubota M9540 with a Woods BW180 batwing. My trailer is long enough to carry tractor and batwing but not sure my old dually (7.3L IDI) is up for the challenge. Anybody have any experience roading your batwing (15') behind a pickup? I realize they are top heavy and hence a need to...

Hello, In the market for a 15' cutter. Have narrowed it down to the cutters above. Anyone have any opinions regarding which way I should be going? The JD looks to be a little heavier built. The MX has no rear spring suspension on the axle which is a negative to me. The Woods has 1 spring...

I have one rear remote on my Kubota and am thinking about getting one of the 12' batwing cutters. A couple of the brands (rhino and landpride) only have one hydraulic line which is optimal for my setup at the moment. Not being familiar with a batwing or the hydraulics, will the 1 remote lever...

Just wondered how many of you grease the the little ball-knobs (whatever you call it) at the base of the FEL joystick that are on the control valve. The manual says to grease them, but there is a plate on top and the only access to them is from the outer sides. Any tips?

Hello, Saturday I loaded up my Kubota M8540 w/FEL and box blade onto my 22k gooseneck trailer that weighs (7300lb). Hooked to my old 89 Ford F350 that has a 7.3L IDI with aftermarket Banks turbo. Truck is in great shape wiht 99,000 miles on it. On flat rolling, the truck does ok. I can make...

Does anyone know of a good place to get some good bolt-on hooks to attach to the bucket of a front end loader? I've seen some weld-on type hooks but would prefer the bolt-on myself. I just can't seem to find much on the net when I try to search for them. Maybe I'm not searching for the right...

Wondering if anyone has adjusted loaded rears or would it be forbidden? I know it would be difficult to do and the best way would be to drain all fluid from the tires before attempting to move them out. They are heavy enough as is. However, if anyone has done it with success, I'd be...

My new tractor arrived yesterday morning. It arrived around 11 am. Snapped some pics of it on the truck and of me taking a spin on it. On top of the excitement, my wonderful wife surprised me with a new Kubota canopy for it - she bought it earlier this week and Dad brought it over in his...

I am a registered newby here but have been lurking on the site for several months gaining valuable insight and details about your tractor buying experiences. Been looking at the Kubota for quite sometime. Have a history with them actually as my Dad bought an L2550 new in 1985. This weekend...

I'm a first time poster here. Am kicking tires and pondering Kubota's 0% for July. Does anyone know what the monthly payment add-ons - like insurance - tend to run? Just wondering how much to figure my monthly payment would run above the actual principal amount of the finance. I was looking...
