Do all 2019 BX tractors have them ?

[Fro65]

Thanks for the good advice, sounds like a BX without a loader is like pizza without cheese or goin canoeing without paddles or skydiving without a parachute ... you just dont do it ...

I'm kind of getting a complex here...I bought a BX this summer with no loader. But then again, I don't like pizza, I don't have a canoe and I sure as heck won't jump out of an airplane.

Now with that said, you are getting very sound advice here. I had very specific chores in mind when I bought mine and have other loaders.

As mentioned above, I had to search for quite awhile to find a dealer that had one that was "naked" (does have the loader valve though). A loader will definitely enhance the resale value.

All good advice here.

OP- you are just down the road from me. I can tell you that a rear blade and loader make for a really good snow removal combination for the type of junk we see here in the winter.

Get the loader. You can add an inexpensive rear blade that'll get the job done at any time.

Good advice, I'd be lost without both.

Your not alone! I just bought a Bx2380 with just a loader valve and a rotary cutter.
I already have a tractor with a loader and have always wanted a baby tractor!

I bought mine without a loader. It has all the necessary hardware I guess, my dealer told me I could pick up the loader in the spring, I told him I'd just be paying cash for it, but he advised I could buy it with the same 0% financing if I wanted to.

Being that I have the front mount blower, and wasn't going to be using a loader at least until spring, seemed like there was no real loss on my end by not getting it right away.

When I bought my B2650, I had the loader on it right from the get-go but I had that one delivered in the spring.

I'm definitely not saying dont get the loader right away, but for my needs, I just simply dont need it until the spring. I'm not 100% sure what all is needed to be put on the machine to make it 'ready' for the loader, but my dealer assured me the only thing I'd have to pay for when the time came to get it, was the loader itself.

I'm trying to 'see' why you'd get the loader valve and not the loader . Seems to me it'd be cheaper( materils and time) to get a 'complete' unit and not piece it together over months....
For sure get the 'SSQA' version of loader though, unless you're in GREAT health ,HUGE concrete pad and have a LOT of time on your hands !

Almost every BX tractor we sell has a loader valve on in, not everyone wants a loader but the blade, broom, debris blower, and snowblower, etc all require it.
It would take couple-three hours or more to add the valve on a tractor. Takes 45 minutes to install and adjust a loader to a loader-ready tractor.

I am going to go out on a limb here, and I believe that the answer is because of how Kubota sells accessories, and the loader is an accessory to the tractor, with the exception of the BX22/23/25/23S, etc., because all of those are sold as tractor, loader, back hoe combination machines. When the loader is sold as an accessory, the mounting kits are given separate part numbers that contain the specifics for a particular tractor. An example is if you buy the snow plow, then you also have to purchase the mounting kit to attach it to your tractor. If you already have the mounting kit for the snow plow, and then you decide that you want to add a snow blower, you purchase another kit that will add the drive items to the mounting kit previously purchased for the snow plow, to drive the snow blower.
With Kubota many of the items fit many different tractors, so the items necessary to fit a particular tractor are sold "ala carte".
