Yes, L2900. Key was on a floating key ring like for an outboard motor. Also with a key to the shed. Must have been swept away during a flood. Fortunately the big orange thing was on higher ground than the shed. Thanks for your help 85Hokie.

I have bought replacements and spares by using just the serial number.

There are only a few different keys for each model. They should have them in stock.

I bought replacement keys off eBay, like the following but for my KX42-2v mini ex.

5 keys for under $9 with free postage is not a bad deal. Work perfectly in my case.

I just checked the PT# on kubota pts, and it is used on A LOT, of machines, lots of L's, MX's, and a few M's.

PT# 3526031852 , seems to cost 8.28 cad.

Agreed!
An E-Bay seller is likely offering the key (keys) that you need.
I too, bought spare Kubota keys on E-Bay for cheap money!

This thread got me thinking...I don't have spare keys for my BX or B2910 anymore. Not sure how I lost them, but I did.

I just ordered five off ebay for both. In each case under $10 each time for five keys delivered. Not in any hurry though. Delivery estimated is less than seven days. Works for me. Gives me time to lose a key or two in the future and not feel too bad about it. :ROFLMAO:

No inexpensive keys for the BX23S. :mad:
Looks like E-Bay listing # 275332427549 should work for you.
$3.79 for a key plus $4.40 shipping.
Seller will likely agree to ship additional keys without increased shipping cost.

Many options. BUT the link I gave is for FIVE keys at about the same price for the one key you linked to (delivered price). :giggle:

The older series of BX tractors used a different key than the BX80 series tractors. I have a bunch of the older BX keys, but only the 2 of the newer 80 series keys, and would like some spares. I will pick them up at the dealership parts counter.

To each his own. BUT I remember that when I wanted a spare key for the mini EX I could get five for about the price (delivered) of one at the dealer, and I did not have to leave home to make that happen.

Dealer is 45 minutes away...If next door, I probably would have bought one from the dealer, figuring I would not lose it, but if I did I could easily buy another...for little cost getting there in time and gas.

I think you might find that ANY of those less expensive keys from that link, would be useless for DustyRusty's model tractor.

I wasn't talking about any tractor except the original poster's tractor. But I would expect, but do not know or care, that similar keys are available for tractors like DustyRusty may have...again don't know and don't care since this does not relate to the original thread.

Edit: Granted my mention of equipment other than what the OP has is in a way an off shoot, but the purpose was to show that these aftermarket keys actually work...

I HAVE aftermarket keys!
Agreed: They work!
My point is that: Some aftermarket Kubota tractor keys are much more expensive than those you referenced.
DustyRusty apparently has just such a tractor.

It is OK Henro, because I really don't care that you don't care!
