LOL, yes I scrapped up the coin for the BX that is why I have no more money..

Looks fantastic, thanks for sharing this!

That looks awesome, I want to make something like that as well for the exact purpose you have pictured. But for leaves, yard waste etc. having it able to dump is what I want.

I would suggest you make the same post on a Kioti forum as others have said. I bought Kubota based on dealer being 6 mins away from my house, if they were a Kioti dealer I'd own a Kioti..

Due to my own foolishness, I almost flipped my BX1880 into a ditch while mowing. The mower deck was what saved me and the BX. I'm not mowing in that area anymore..

I would suspect that the bending is from carrying very heavy loads? I like the idea of a carry all on the 3pt but not for dumping loads, mind you there are some good rear dumpers out there, the issue if for now is my budget. as you can see much more money.. https://split-fire.com/tractor-carry-all/

Yes, I did almost the same thing. Bought my BX1880 for snow removal and cutting grass, then 6 months later I had the loader installed and wish I had done it at the start. One thing to keep in mind is from what I was told all the BX's use the same loader/bucket, so if you really don't want it you...

Glad to hear I'm not alone!

Exactly, If I need to lift 500+ pounds on a regular basis I'd get real forks, but for what I need 90% of the time is something quick and easy to move lighter loads. While I think making something custom fit is a really good idea, time never seems to be on my side. LOL

Good Point, they state overall weight of 58 pounds and only 30" fork length. Funny their description shows exactly what I want them for.

Ha! very true, but I'd like it to last more that one trip, I expect the leaves to be wet as some point of my collecting this fall. I found these forks and I think they calm some of my worries with the unique design compared to others I've seem. I doubt they will ever see a 1/4 of what they can...

Yea, I'll see what I can do. to be honest I wanted a simple solution to a simple problem, lugging yard waste easily. For much of it I can just use the bucket and a couple of trips, but for leaves, branches etc. having something bigger to haul more is ideal.

Now that is a cool idea, I have some large sheets of steel kicking around... you're giving me idea's

Agreed, I have a ballast box on the 3pt and the load will be as close to the bucket as possible.

Ah, ok. I'll look into that well, but as for the forks they will have other light duty uses. So I'll measure and figure it out.

Thanks for the replies. The picture I posted is just for reference, does not indicated what I intend to purchase. I've had a few idea's on what to build for this "clean up box" but already having some very well built skids saves me enough to get the forks, I'll still strap the box to the bucket...

I want to make a box out of skids for leaf collection this fall, my plan is to use those clamp on forks (you see them on vevor, amazon etc.) I figure at most I'll be lifting 100-500 pounds as I don't really like the idea of clamp on forks but that is all I have the budget for currently. Has...

Howdy Folks, BX1880 Series The hand throttle lever is become more difficult to move, I looked through some manuals but could not find anything to lubricate/clean it. Also my search on the forum provided little information, but that is most likely me.. LOL If anyone can point me in the right...

Thanks for the replies, I currently only have two thing to attach to the 3 point. 1. Kubota Ballast box 2. Leveler The leveler is a bit older but still in the 2000's. That being said, I am the poster child for "Murphy's Law"... Being that I have the BX1880 I'm limited to 48" implements so...

Very nice, I'm looking to make some mounts on my BX1880 this year. Tool box, garden tools, trimmer etc..
