kubota bx25

Hi there. I purchased my first tractor a few weeks back after reading as much as I can on these boards. I picked up a new BX25 from the dealer for a good price. Anyway, I have about nine hours on it now. I live in VA, and the weather has been getting a little cooler now with fall on is. What I...

I had a blade fall off yesterday while mowing. Normally if getting off the tractor while mowing I would throttle down and then disengage the PTO. Well this time I just got off with the RPM's up and the PTO engaged without thinking to move something out of the way. It was a good test of the...

Just bought a work light kit from BxExpanded. Does anyone know where the electrical connectors are located for an aux work light on the BX25? The fuse panel contains a 20 amp fuse for a work light, but I cannot locate the electrical connectors. I tried pplugging the work light into the rear...

The stock threaded top link on my BX25 travels from approx. 14" to 22" I have been looking at some of the products mentioned here on TBN but have not found an exact match in a hydraulic top link. Surplus Center has one 18.125" to 26.375"...

we pulled this rock out of our back yard and moved to the front for landscaping... it would not fit in the bucket but pushed it about 100' with the FEL and managed to get it just where we wanted it between the FEL and BH. we were successful and placed it right where wanted it... here is a...

Attempt to start my bx25 and nothing happens I get a red symbol like one of the safty switches is on.I have the park brake on and am in neutral.Pto off and can hear the clicking of the solonoid engaging but the engine won`t crank. I have tried to jumper each of the 3 safty switches and all are...

I've read a lot on this forum about box blade/scraper for the BX. I am trying to find a 4' BB and prices where I live are very high compared to what I've read on this forum. I would gladly take the 4' BB available from tractor supply company that is going for $425, but we don't have a TSC...

I now have nearly 40 hours on my BX25 and near time for it's first service. For some reason I don't remember it having as much diesel knock at idle as it does now, and rough when I shut the engine off. As you raise RPM the knock goes away. All fluids are in check and the tractor seems to operate...

local tractor supply has pictured King Kutter BB-G-48 box blade. I am concerned it might be a bit much for the BX, the KK web site states it's 350lb. My other concern is the 26" wide mount and height of the mount. Will this work on the BX 3-pt without issue?

Hi all, I am about to work on building a 3-5' retention wall along my yard. currently the area has a 45 degree slope and then level on top. the wall length will be approx 50'. sorry for the crappy photo... this is the area where the retention wall will go and hopefully give an idea of material...

Strange happenings with BX25, bought this in April from Messicks, I did the 50 hours service @ 42 hours, all went well, dropped FEL and BH. Reinstalled FEL 2 days later for a digging project and noticed the tractor would shut off when i left the seat, It usually stays running unless you are...

Since am new to purchasing implements for tractor, wonder if this is a good price from Bro-Tek for: Ripper Tooth, Thumb, and Brush Fork for a Kubota bx25. It does seem to be. we can ship that combo to you for $800 was quoted. Frank

The new toy should come this week, thanks to Barlow's. Is there a list of things I should go over on the tractor before accepting delivery?

I purchased a BX25 and have read allot of threads where people say that with the HST they rarely have to use the brakes. I am having to use the brakes every time I take my foot off the forward or reverse pedal. (Even on flat ground) The machine tends to want to keep it's momentum going. Is there...

The local Kubota dealer (3 of the local ones were all about the same price) quote 5% off MSRP plus tax and dealer delivery. The tractor is (they don't have one in stock) BX25 Industrial tires 12" Bucket 3 point hitch Front mount Blower w/manual everything $21,704 MSRP 48" Bush hog (42 doesn't...

I have been working my BX25 pretty hard these days with lots of loader work and about a week ago I sprung a leak from one of the O-Rings on one of the connectors on the loader control manifold located down by your feet. The O-Ring was destroyed. Of course, the dealer says they have never heard...

Who was wanting to know the Value of A BX25 Back Hoe? Where did the thread disappear to ?

I am looking at adding a FEL mounted snow plow. One option is to use a type that is self contained, that is with an electric Hyd. pump for the power angle. Will the BX 25 Electrical system handle this type of load?

Just wondering if any one else seen the head to head video MF GC2410 vs Kubota BX25 on masseyferguson.com web page.

I am ready to do my first 50 hour service on my BX25. The manual says to change engine oil/filter, no problem. It also say to replace the transmission oil filter and clean the strainer but not to change the fluid. am I gonna lose all the fluid when I pull the strainer?

I have developed a small hydraulic leak on a the rear valve assembly that all the BH functions are controlled with. This would be a simple fix but I cannot get a wrench to fit on the particular fitting that is weaping due to space constraints. Not sure if you guys know the arear that I am...

Guys, I recently did the 50 service on my BX25 (Motor oil & filter and transmission oil & filter) and have since noticed that my FEL dump motion (curl down) seems slower than before. Also, it seems that during the whole range of travel from completely curled up to fully down the pump is making...

What brand tooth bar would you recomend for a BX25 Kubota?

Hello, I should be getting my new bx25 w/ r4 tires and a Land Pride Box blade next week. I got this for $16,400 plus $125 Fees FYI. I am already looking for all the upgrades I need for it. I have come across several different sites while searching the forums for hours. Bro-Tech was one and I...

On the right hand group of levers there are 3 levers but there is an empty slot for a 4th lever on my BX25. What is that slot meant for?

What should I go with for skid plates on my BX25?

Anyone know if a hoe mounted breaker/jackhammer is available for a Kubota BX25?

I just bought a new BX25 Kubota. I have a Ford ranger 4X4, 4.0L V6 with a class I hitch I think it is rated 3500 Lb. I have a carmate 5X10 dump trailer. Can I haul my tractor? How about with a hitch extension and the bucket over the front? Thanx

I've got 71 hours on it and it less than 2 months old. I discovered an oil leak after seeing a wet spot where I parked my tractor. I can't really tell where the source is but I have pictures of the area it might be coming from. I seems to be the area behind or below the battery. I'm not...

Has anyone purchased the WSM work shop manual for their BX25? Do you have part number 9Y111-01970 or 9Y121-01970? Are your pictures in color or black & white? Thanks

Hello, I know pretty much zero about tractors. I recently bought 30 acres mostly wooded land and will be building in a few years. at this time i need to do some work arond the property like clearing an acre or two for a food plot in an area that is mostly overgrown brush, saplings and small...

I have found a rck60-24b for sale locally here is the ad 60" Deck with mounting brackets and hardware off 7610. Will fit 7X & 76 & 24 series tractors MAYBE others. Execellent condition, stored inside always. Not more than 25-30hrs runtime on unit. $1875.00 I have a BX25, anybody know if it...

Hi y'all, first post here. I'm weighing a used BX22 TLB w/ MMM versus a brand spanking new BX25 without the BH, but with loader and MMM. They both price out at 15,100. The BH on the used unit has a nice thumb, and the loader has added brace and hooks welded on. This tractor is just shy of 1000...

Anyone have any luck mounting a grapple to the FEL bucket? If so, which one? I have looked at several, but they all seem like overkill in both size and weigh for a BX25. If I can稚 find one available, I guess I will make one. Thanks, g

I'm in the market for a new tractor. I currently have a 10 year old deere 4100 gear w/fel. I'm on 5 acres of flat wavy land with a few oaks out back. We have horses, so I'm moving manure and mowing. All the land clearing is done and Ive bush hogged the land into submission. We use round bales...

My thinking is enough rpm's to get the job done, but would anyone have any opinions as to what would be acceptable? FEL operation or BH operation? Machine has not reached 50 hrs yet either, so I know I must take it easy for awhile longer. First diesel I've owned too. No info in Operators...

Just curious as to if anyone has the 3pt hitch on their BX25/25 if they could measure from the ground up to the arms center. I just got a BX25 and the lowest I can get it is like 10 inches of ground..Just doesnt seem right as I need it to go down a lot lower. Dealer is trying to figure it out...

Simple as that. Or is it a major headache?

I purchased a new BBQ for the deck and the grill was very heavy, like 300lbs. I used the BX and FEL to lift it up four steps and set it on the deck. Worked out great, two wheels on the inside of the bucket and a strap around the grill to the arms. So I told the wife it's great that we had this...

I want to put a bolt on replaceable wear edge on the FEL of my new BX25 before it sees any use. Is the 6" hole spacing a standard? I only want to drill once and get it right! Wear is the best place/price to order a 48" bar from? I don't see it at TSC or Northern Tool. How does the slip over...

Where exactly does the front quick attach bracket bolt to on the tractor? Can the BX25 grill guard stay or does it have to go when you add the quick attach bracket? Any pictures? Anyone have the manual for the quick attach in pdf? Thanks

I recently bought a BX1860 for mowing and small jobs around my 10 acre property. I didn't realize how capable these little tractors are. So I started thinking about trading up to the BX25. It's kinda funny that this all started with just needing to replace my ride mower.:D I went down to my...

I just ordered a BX25 from the local Kubota dealer and will be adding the following: Tiller, Box Scraper, Blade Scraper, Post-hole Digger, Grapple, Tooth-bar, and Thumb. The dealer is installing an aux 3-spool hyd valve to add Top & Tilt Cylinders to rear attachments. My former Kubota was an...

I recently purchased a BX25 which I received last Thursday. Great little machine! I worked it Thursday, Friday and Saturday. At about 11 hours I refueled. There must have been a gallon left because I put in a little less than 5 gallon to fill it up. Shortly after refueling the engine...

Hello, I am new to this forum but have read a lot of reviews. I would like to hear your comments on my specific situation. I am new to tractors, 2 years (about 100 Hours). I have owned an old 1979 Hinomoto E16 tractor I purchased from the grey market but recently sold it because I want to...

Man what a tractor! Hi everybody, I just wanted to post this because TractorByNet has helped me make my decide on which sub CUT to buy. It took about a month of reading posts and checking Dealers out in a 50 mile radius of Brockport NY. All the machines I looked at were very similar and that...

First implement I'm looking at is a PHD. I'm looking at the Woods PHD35, with a 42" bit. Is this too much for the BX 25 or should I go with the PHD25?? Anyone using the PHD35 on a BX??

I am in the buying process and plan on picking up a 2008 BX24 on Friday. I was told buy my local dealer that the BX24 and BX25 are basically the same machine and the BX25 is just the new model. I asked if the BX25 was replacingthe BX24 and he said no. I called Barlow's and Steve said they are...

Hello all, I have 3 acres of grass to cut with a moderate amount of trees, I currently have a JD 425 with 54" MMM that does the job just fine. This year I need to put new weepers around the house as well as some drainage and utility trenching with a max depth of around 5.5'. I intend to sell...

Ok, we've recently borrowed a BX23 to dig some asparagus trenches, and it was great. We used it for other small odd jobs as well. We think we may get one. Here's what I came up with: John Deere 2305---$16,718 Kubota BX24-------$16,673 Kubota BX25-------$18,445 All TLB with R4s and 12"...

Hello all, I have been looking for quite awhile now for a decent compact TLB, I have been looking at used stuff like early 90's JD 855's in the range of $15,000 CAD. I had no idea that you could buy a new Kubota TLB for only 5g's more! :D Here are some of my questions about the BX25; I need...

Setting up and using a brush cutter on my BX is frustrating me. I am having a problem with the front skid plates on the cutter digging into the ground. I have tried to level it as per the instructions in LandPrides manual, but their terminology and explanations are very lacking. I still can't...

I just got prices today and want to know what you guys think. These prices are for the Kansas City area. I have two acres(7 more possible, mostly horse pasture) and a horse riding arena that I will drag with a harrow. I'm sure either tractor is capable of what I want to do but I do like the B...

Guys, I am coming up on the 50 hour mark on my BX25 and I was planning on heading into the dealer today to pick up the required filters and fluids for the 50 hour service. I was looking in the manual and it shows for the 50 hour service to just replace the filter and clean the screen for the...

I have a chance to purchase all 4 wheels and turf tires for my BX25 from a BX1830. The tires I am looking to purchase match up size wise except for the fronts that are 18x8.50-8 instead of 18x8.50-10. I don't have any idea if the wheels are the same or the bolt pattern will match up either...

There was what I think was a BX25 for sale on Craiglist the A.M. Its the one with the built in backhoe. It was listed in 3 different towns. It was low hours and was for sale at $3800. It had a photo and looked in really good shape. I didn't give it a second thought. Then I realized...

Re: BX25 No start Well, Being a TractorByNet addict has paid off today, as I went to start my BX25 today to clear the driveway, I turned the key and no start. Lights, Glowplugs, all good but nothing when you tried to start it. I remembered other posts about the PTO lever switch and low and...

Just a heads up for anyone interested. I received an e-mail from Kubota today and they said that all the details of the new BX25 will be posted on their website tomorrow. About time they got their website up to speed!! I bought my new one a couple weeks ago and I think they have been selling...

Hi I am have a bx25 with a 3pt hitch kit and 51" snow blower that I am trying to mount on it. Once I picked the blower off the skid with the 3pt hitch it would not go down all the way to the ground (flat garage floor). It appears that the (non adjustable) lift link is binding between the...

Boy I need to let you all know, I just received a new receiver hitch from Harry at BXpanded.com for my BX25 and I need to say that this hitch is PERFECT and what a great fit and less than 10 seconds to install. You sure can't go wrong purchasing anything from Harry at BXPanded.

Hi, I'm the proud owner of a new BX25 (5hrs) and this is likely pilot error somehow... I was moving some loam, everything going well. I put the bucket down (empty) with the tractor running and 2-3 minutes later the FEL wouldn't move. I eventually moved every hydro lever on the machine to...

Ok, so I've got to buy a 3 point hitch for the BX25, because, as you all know, it is not included with the tractor any more. I'd like to save $100 and get an aftermarket one, seeing how the only thing I plan to use it for is a carryall now and then. Even if just on principle, I think I should...

Does anyone know of a vendor that has a four-point hitch I can put my 2" receiver bar into on my BX25 Kubota? If it were to mount to the lower 2 hooks of the four point mounting and then the top link of the three point mounting or the top two mounts of the four point I could have a fixed trailer...

You can see the sad blue tarp I've been using to cover my new baby...that had to change. First I cleared and leveled an area about 16 x 24 on a slope above my yard. Soil here is dense clay, stone and shale, so I had to dig quite a bit with the backhoe at first before turning to the loader...

I've had my BX25 about a month and put on about 40 hours. I've had 2 issues to date. The first after about 5 hours of run time one of the hydraulic controls on the BH went limp. The clevis pin which connects the lever rod to the control must not have had the lock pin installed, or it broke...

I wanted to post a picture of my BX25 with the new armrest part number 70000-73930 . Thanks to TBN I saved half the cost purchasing the complete kit for both sides part number verses purchasing each side by it's self and they were half the cost! Thanks to all that contribute here on TBN, a big...

Hi all... First time potential purchase of a tractor. I've done a fair bit of research here over the past month or so and think I've settled on a BX25 for a 80% MMM, 20% FEL and BH usage scenario. 3 properties: 2a, .5a and 1a with all the related maintenance, no real woods but plenty of...

Here is my BX25 and its implements along with the three carts for when they are not attached to the BX. I found that with only a two car garage that already has two motorcycles in it I can not move about meaning I can not get to the loader if the blade or BH are in the way without first...

I know this is bass ackwards as the BX25 is being delivered tomorrow..but I've got some trails through the woods here, and I wonder if any of you can tell me if I will be able to haul cut logs for firewood on a small trailer. Total weight of the trailer and wood in the 600-700 # range, I would...

Thanks for all the helpful info on my post about the weight and towing of the 24. I reconsidered, though, and now I've got a BX25 coming this Tuesday. I had gotten two different prices locally of 17,500 and 17,250, so I decided to get a 24 from out of state in PA...15,400 with the tires I...

Okay, here's a question. I don't want to take off the BH just to move my boat around the cottage lot, so how can I rig up a ball on the FEL without drilling any holes in my BRAND NEW tractor? I played a bit with the empty boat trailer, by just rolling the FEL bucket as far back as it would go...

I have a new BX25 with maybe 10 hours on it, and I've noticed it will sometimes stall out when backing up a slope (a very gentle one), even if I don't "step on the gas". Any ideas why this occurs? Has anyone else had this problem? One possibility is that the driver detection system may be...

Would the 54" blade TG2754 Blade fit the BX2753 Quick Hhitch on my BX25 without any mods?

I am looking under the hood of my new BX25 and I am wondering what the capacity is of the charging system of my BX25. I would like to add some work lights and it appears that the tractor has a small automotive style alternator. Is this an alternator or a dynamo? What is it rated for? Cheers,

Well here are my first photos of my BX25. I woke up this morning and went right outside to start work on my yard. Ripped out some shrubs and did some logging. I am totally impressed with this machine! I was using a chain to bring dead trees out of the woods to cut and burn and it dawned on...

Well, My new BX25 arrived last night and I already have 4 hours on the unit making a mess of my yard. I love it! It is going to take a couple times getting the hang of the BH but so far I have been able to dig holes pretty easy. I also removed my first stump. I have found the machine more...

I am looking to add a snow blade with power angle to my new BX25 and am wondering if the BX2763A and the quick hitch are the same from the BX2200's, BX2230's, BX23's and BX24's. Looking for a slightly used but good condition blade close to Northern Ohio if it's the same as the other models.

Well after a full weekend with my new BX25, I have to say I really am enjoying this tractor. It cuts grass like no tomorrow and leaves a real nice finish. I am truly amazed at how easy the loader and backhoe come off and on. I tried the backhoe and loader and they work smooth and are very...

I just received my BX25 late today. I can't wait to try it out. So far I am very happy with my choice.

Seems the BX24 are selling like hotcakes up here on Vancouver Island - the dealer claims sales are up 40% on last year. They haven't had one to sell me and say they problem goes all the way back to Georgia. Today he says he can get one for me in about three weeks..... BUT He says Kubota are...

I know the new BX1850/BX2350/BX24 are just getting to dealers but I was just curious as to what the speculation was about the evolution of Glide Steer... I'm assuming it cost Kubota bit of $$$ to develop it. As far as I can tell they are only selling Glide Steer on the GR2000/GR2100 might it...
