BX Modifications - A Picture Thread

Johnkn · Mar 26, 2018

My mods are in my signature block. Here's another great mod, not sure why Kubota doesn't provide good tie down points. These are representative pictures, not my actual tractor/trailer. Paul S., these are something you could knock out on your new table and wouldn't be too labor intensive to produce.

For those of you who do not like tossing money out windows, you can modify your OEM HST fan skid with some scrap steel and a few hours time to protect the plastic fan. You could easily go a bit further than I did and build a box to drop down and wrap under the HST filter if you are so inclined. This is a free modification that many who can not weld will spend $300 to replicate. Spray bomb is with bed liner when your done and it looks like a factory part.

While the welder is out, go to Amazon and get weld on 3/8" chain hooks and weld on d-rings and toss them on your loader. The d-rings work great with a 2" strap, the chain hooks work great for... well... chain! And it provides a front chain-down location for trailering.

All are cheap and easy if you have a hot mettle glue gun (welder).

Very nice HST fan mod, Great job! I'm not certain why Kubota doesn't protect the fan better.

For me it was easier to just spend the $160 on the BXpanded plate and have the dealer install it prior to delivery than fab one, plus I purchased my tractor in December and didn't have a convenient place to work on it in heated comfort with the garage full of other toys.

take care
