kubota bx2660

Just wanted to share some pictures of the work lamps I've installed on the orange beast. They came out great! 6000 unadulterated lumens blasting out into the darkness... I used a modified Osram Sylvania Xenarc X1010 High Intensity Discharge (HID) Xenon Lighting System that has had the bulb...

I know there was some question on a recent post as to which was saving which. A BX pulling out a Dodge truck or the Dodge truck pulling out the BX?:D Well today when I came home I couldn't get my Dodge truck up my drive because of snow covered ice on my drive. Had to park truck in yard, go get...

Hello all, Just got a Woods BH to fit on my BX2660 and can not figure out how to remove lower arms of 3ph. I know this is going to be a silly question for all those experienced tractor owners out there but I have never had any need to reomve my 3ph until now. No details on how to do this in...

I live on a hill in Ky. Not much snow. No snow plow or front/rear blade. Snowed 2 or 3 inches and slid all the way down the hill in my WRX Subaru Wed and almost never made it back up. Should have drove the Dodge Dakota 4wd. Guess a Subaru Pocket Rocket with High Performance tires isn't for snow...

I was considering getting the hydraulic top link that CC Machinery offers for the BX series, but noticed it only has 4" of stroke, going from 14" to 18": Tractor Hydraulic toplinks, Top-N-Tilt, Side link cylinders I measured the existing top link and it has 8" of range, from 14" to 22". So I...

First time for me installing chains on the rear wheels. Bought a pair from tirechains.com. I laid the chains out carefully on the garage floor behind the Bota and then rolled it backwards to the middle of the chains. I attempted to then wrap the wheel with the chain, eventually got it done but...

I see Kubota offers a 51" two stage rear mount snowblower with an optional hyd chute rotator. I would prefer a front mount blower but I like the idea of having both the FEL and blower. How is the hyd rotator configured and controlled? Is it a useful option over a manual rotator? I currently do...

Posted this on the Cub page also. Looking for some knowledgable folks to lend some advice. Have been looking at both of these machines and think I'm leaning toward the Cub/Yanmar right now, but have never owned a tractor myself, only used other's a little. Kubota model has more HP at the PTO...

I'm happy to have found this site. I'm a newbe to the sub-compact tractor world. Had a Honda H4518 lawn tractor and its time to move up. I've looked at the Massey Ferguson GC 2400 & 2600 and the Kubota BX 2360 & 2660. Both seen to be quality products though I haven稚 seen anywhere near as many...

I just bought a BX2660 on Tuesday and decided to hook up my 48" box blade today (Worksaver SBX-4)... It was a pain to get on, mostly because I had to lift the box blade up to get it into the holes. I figured the 3-point would lower more once I got the box blade attached, but it didn't - even...

Well I had a change of heart and am getting the Kubota BX2660 with Loader. It was a tough choice between it and the MF GC2400. Getting a Package deal with the Tractor, Loader, Cutter, Disk , and Trailer. Mark at Snead Tractor LLC. in Centre, AL has been very helpful and patient in my deciding...

After putting about 18 hours on my new tractor, im really starting to see how much of a jack of all trades tool it is! We just moved into a new house and has made the move easy. Clearing and cleaning up the new property (8 acres) was an absolute pleasure to do with this tractor. Now I only wish...

My FEL came in so the dealer came by and picked up my BX to install it and is going to bring it back Friday. In the mean while I am trying to think of a good way to counter balance the FEL load. I know I can put on a BB or load the tires but I really don't want to go that way if I don't have to...

Well, I finally started doing some work with the FEL on my new BX2660. I didn't think I was being too rough with it, but apparently I was. Somehow the right pin came out (the one that you remove to take off the FEL) when I was pushing some logs around and when I hit an unmovable log, the...

I just picked a new front mount blower with quick hitch for my bx2660. The hydraulic cylinder comes empty. Should I fill it as much as I can before install, or should I cycle it through and fill the fluid from the fill tube? Thanks

Does anyone know what the going price is for a new Kubota BX2660 w/loader only (in the NewEngland Area). I recieved a price of 12,800 from a local dealer whichs seems fair. Also if someone has pricing on a bx25 it would be greatly appreciated.

Does anyone know what the going price is for a new Kubota BX2660 w/loader only (in the NewEngland Area). Also a BX25 if anyone has the info. :)

Just curious if other BX owners have a similar experience as I. I put a strait edge on my left and right front frame rails (inside of front wheels) to see how strait it was. Needless to say, it was not strait at all. At one point it was teetering on a high spot, where on the other side there...

Hello all. Ive been lurking here for a while, trying to soak up some Kubota information. I am getting a BX2660 with FEL and 60"MMM this weekend (i hope). I had a few questions that I wanted to ask the experts here. For one, I need to get a 3 point hitch adapter (3 point hitch --> 2" reciever)...

I made every attempt to buy local and really wanted to do so because of the economic conditions, but no one should be faulted for buying the same tractor for thousands less out of state. A difference of a few hundred dollars would have kept me local, but thousands of dollars can't be ignored...

See this thread below. Pictured is HST fan protection for the BX1860. My new 2009 BX2660 that arrived today had the same guard in place. :) http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/kubota-owning-operating/153062-confused-about-hydrostatic-transmission-fan.html

My new tractor arrived in the crate today :) at the dealership and I signed the papers. Should be delivered Friday. :D Thanks to all the members who gave advice and suggestions. I couldn't have done it as informed without all of your input. If I can figure it out, I'll post some pictures...

i have a bx2660 with a 4 ft bushhog squealer when i mow my 4 acres with it it will leave a 1 ft or so strip of grass on one side has anyone had trouble of this kind any help would be greatful

Put my FEL back on my BX2660 and it's squealing when bucket reaches maximum extension right and left with control lever?:confused: If you know why, please respond.

I might be picking up a BX2660 soon with FEL and MMM and wondering what the weight of the FEL is. I cannot find it in any Kubota literature I have. I'm aware that the tractor weighs approx 1389 and deck is about 250. Any concerns trailering this outfit with a trailer that has a GVWR of...

Hello everyone. I am a new member and have viewed this site alot before making my purchase of a BX 2660. I love the tractor. Today, I was pulling my box blade and the tractor RPMs dropped to 780. I stopped my forward movement and the rpms stuttered and the tractor stalled. Now I cant restart...

Stopped by Barlows a couple of days ago and picked up a sunshade for my BX2660. Installed it today. About to much for me and my wife to do. She's to short.:) Would have been easier for two average strength:) men and a breeze for 3. Written instructions would have helped abit. I attached bracket...

I've always hated the drive for awhile and then find out I didn't release the parking brake on my Kubota that I owned at the time. Mowed today with my BX2660. My BX1500 parking brake would let me drive while it was engaged plus the others but especially the BX1500.:D I thought maybe the parking...

Well I think I've pretty much convinced myself that I'm going to either go with the BX2660 or the B2320. Help me decide. Here's my situation. My wife and I purchased about 8 acres of what was once crop land (it was converted to residential 5 to 8 acre tracts in the early 90's) about a year...

Hello all, Quick question on the BX2660 instrument cluster. After running and parking my new BX in the garage I shut her down, but the temp gage stays frozen in the warmed up range with the engine off and key out of the ignition. It stays there for days. When I go to restart her two days...

So, perhaps I'm missing something, but I seem to be having a hard time getting my PTO to switch between mid, rear, and mid/rear split. I get it into one (like Rear when I'm using just my bush hog), and I can't get it to shift out, the lever just sticks. I have had this happen in the past, and...

Hello, Thank's for all your input on my previous thread. Our new BX2660 was delivered on Thursday afternoon and in terms of the quality of the design and build I couldn't be more pleased. This is one nice piece of equipment. However, I noticed some rust on it and I'm looking for your...

Hello all, I've been reading up for weeks now, and my brand new BX2660 arrived today. I have a couple of new guy questions that I'm sure somebody will have an answer/opinion on so here's my initial list after mowing 2.5 acers this afternoon: How much black smoke is acceptable? This tractor...

Written specs and info sheets only go so far. Here are side by side pictures. B3200 60" Light metal:) bucket. BX2660 60" MMM. These are both great machines. They are just different. Here's hoping no one can say I'm putting their BX/B down by showing these pictures of both of my tractors. I like...

Hello all, I'm a 2000 series cub cadet owner on the fence to upgrade. I'm looking at a BX2660 with FEL, 60" MMM, Turf Tires, and Snow Blower attachment. Two questions, 1) Do I pull the trigger tomorrow on the 0% financing, or hold out for something better? 2) Here's my quote: BX2660 with...

My problem with the abrupt stop in the BX2350 has been fixed. It's gone. In it's place is a BX2660.

Well I look to have made a decent (better priced then I found through many online dealers mentioned here) deal on a BX2660 here in Ohio! Of course as with most of these that are priced super competitively it was on the old invoice pricing, prior to the increase and release of the 2360. So...

I noticed when I took off my MMM this weekend, the difference in the threads on the adjustment of the front link (the link that is "levered" up between the front wheels) was about 1/2" between each side. That seems way off to me. My B's were always very close, but they were ground contact...

Im not sure if anyone else has done this. I always seem to have trouble attaching the tiller up to my tractor. I tried something that works well for me, no cussing or bloody knuckles. I hooked the lower links up first then the shaft. I put a come along from the rops to the back of the tiller...

BX2660 Idle Speed?? My recently delivered BX2660 has an idle speed of 1450 RPM which seems a bit fast when I turn the key off. The dealer told me that Kubota does not specify a min/max idle speed and the BXs they have sold have idle speeds ranging from 1000 to 1450. For all you BX2660 owners...

I have the shop manual for my B7510 sitting here. It's been handy, but now that the tractor is gone, I'm thinking about selling it to a happy B7510 owner. Then I got to thinking... the manual has offered much piece of mind on my maintenance, although I have never had to dig into it like...

The dealer delivered my BX2660 equipped with a 60 MMM and sun canopy today. After cutting my 3 acres in about the same time as I used to do it with my L3430 and a 6 RMM I am ecstatic about my baby Bota!:) No matter how careful I was I inevitably ended up cutting the lawn with the front tires...

Has anybody installed a front hitch on their BX? I see a front-mount 2" receiver for the BX on eBay, and thought it would be helpful in moving my landscape trailer into the barn (minimal tongue weight), and for installing a clevis to chain the tractor down while trailering it.

In my search to decide if I wanted a BX, I came across a dealer that said an additional set of tires and rims (industrial tread) would cost only $300. I think that is outrageous! Outrageously cheap! I thought about buying them just because I'd have them if I needed them for heavy FEL work and...

Simple as that. Or is it a major headache?

Kubotabooks.com does not have these, and nowhere else I could find. Has anybody found "downloadable" .pdf book files of these anywhere else? I hate to pay $65 a piece, but I guess I was spoiled with my B7510 manuals.

Hi, I have a bx2660 can anyone tell me how far up the 3pt arms should go? Mine dont look like they go all the way up. Is there an adjustment? thanks

Most of my research and testing came last year, but due to financial issues and the economy I decided to hold off. Well after our riding mower broke down a few weeks ago I felt it was time to start looking again. Last year I was looking at the BX2350 and the small B series. So I picked up...

Hi all! Just wondering if anybody has fit a Woods BH6000 to a BX2660 yet? I am thinking of doing this and would appreciate any advise/comments on this combination. Dave

I'm trying to decide between the BX2660 and the BX2360. I read where someone had trouble with the air filter clamp....like with our current BX2200 I also read where someone had a hydrolic leak. Are these isolated problems? Will the 2360 be more reliable? Can people who have the BX2660...

Posted this in another forum...this one might be better: We have a Bx2200 from 2001 and we use it with a FEL, 60" mower and rear blower. We have worked this tractor quite hard and it has developed a few leaks in the front. Thinking of trading it for a 2660. If we get just the tractor, will...

I thought I saw a post on this a while back but found nothing using search. Doing a masive amout of loader work and my Bx2660 seems to be a lot slower in reverse today. Has about 45 hours on the machine. Thinking the earlier post mentioned cleaning the hyd screen. How much fluid will I loose...

I monitored the forum for months pondering a new tractor. Needing the FEL and a tiller, I contemplated the 60" MMM. Brand new tractor FEL and MMM was $13,150 with 0.5 hrs, just in case anybody was wondering. I currently mowed with a Dixon 60" deck for the past 12 years. I loved my Dixon and...

I have searched this forum for removing the FEL from a BX. I cannot find my problem, sorry if it is posted somewhere. Following the directions in the manual, I cannot get the FEL to lift out of the base. I lower the stand, lower the bucket to 20 degrees to lift the front wheels, pull the...

BX2660 Deluxe Reclining Seat Anyone have any experience modifying or adjusting the engine kill seat safety switch on this model seat? I would like to have the weight switch to be not so sensitive. I have heard of others adding or adjusting the switch bars inside the seat on other models to make...

Thinking of putting a rear work light on my BX2660 tractor. I checked out my tractor today and there is a wire tap made for a work light. The wire tap is on its own dedicated 20 amp fuse in the fuse box. The tap is live with the ignition switch so I want a light with a switch on it. I dont...

Last night I was backing my tractor up a slight incline with about 6" of snow and tractor stalled a few times. One time it would not engage the starter, I waited a few minutes and it startred up. It almost stalled twice more until I let off the pedal. Is this normal? Has anyone else experienced...

Finaly, I receive my new Kubota BX2660 after 3 months of waiting. The snowblower was BO and the hydro too. Now I'm waiting for 10-12 inch of snow. If you guys want more pic just ask. Curtis Deluxe Cab,front and rear wiper Cab Heater Front snowblower Hydro rotation Chute Electric deflector 48...

So I've been playing with my 2660, and while I'm completely happy with it's performance, I find myself looking quite longingly at those BX2x's, with their fancy backhoes. It seems every time I turn around, I see another place I could be digging a ditch :) So, my question is, what options are...

It's amazing how much has come full circle between these machines- metal hood and fenders oil, air, fuel and hydro filters match almost exactly the same length with FEL Gotta love what they have improved, though!!! The 2200 has 650 hours and goes into semi-retirement with only about .25 acre...

How can I tell if 4WD is active? With the lever forward into 4WD, the rear wheels spun while the rear blade was lowered too far and digging deep into the soil. It appeared as if the front wheels were not engaged. The BX behaved the same when I moved the lever to the rear to disengage 4WD. 20...

ok well I want to purchase a new tractor I first tested a CaseIH DX31 then didnt think i needed one that big so i tested a cub cadet sc2400 that seems to be a nice little tractor then i drove my uncles JD 2305 I belive thats the numbers and i see on here and someone told me about the Kubota BX...

I can't decide. I only have 1.5 acres to mow, 1/4 mile gravel driveway to maintain, a little bit of snow in central Virginia. Also 5+ acres of woods to enter and fetch firewood. Also, a one-time job of filling in a very large swimming pool with surrounding earth and broken concrete and bricks...

Hi everyone, I'm a greeeeen user and I'm just wondering if I'm breaking in my engine correctly? The owners manual isn't that specific on operational rpm's. I'm looking around online for advice on rpm's for break-in period, weather I'm mowing or using the FEL and I found very little. I know that...

Hi All, I'm new to the site, and have just purchased a new BX2660 (being delivered next week, they're hard to find in Canada, so had to be shipped to Nova Scotia from Quebec.) I've been reading up on the likes/dislikes of the BX series, and one thing that comes up somewhat often is that they...

BX2660 with FEL, 60" MMM - $15,200 with 0% for 42 months As a comparison, 2007 Iowa State Fair pricing for BX2350, FEL, 60" MMM - $13,500 with 0% for 36months So, you have to ask if 3hp, new seat, metal fenders are worth $1700 (12.5% increase) over the BX2350. IowaAndy

Got a quote of $13,222 (not including tax) today on a BX2660 with 60" MMM, 48" bucket, and grill guard. Does that seem about right or is there room to move there. Location is Iowa. Thanks.

Pictures are attached. Going from memory, this is a 700-800 premium over the 2350. Your getting an extra 3 Hp (bigger block), all metal construction, 20% larger radiator, and a realy nice tilt back seat.

I was picking up some maintenance stuff for my Legacy this morning at my Simplicity / Kubota / Polaris dealer, and got a chance to look over a BX2660 a little. There is a decal on the hood that says "Extra Power", the grill is all black, and doesn't have the orange bars across the sides of it...
