Was reading another thread about tooth bars. I have a heavy duty one I would not part with, which has two flat bars welded together that slip over the bucket lip, with teeth welded on them. But some compact tractor tooth bars seem to have a lot more teeth for a similar length, but perhaps...

If you ever buy a used grinder, if it spins forever when powered down this is a sign of worn bearings, from everything I have read over the years. So I would guess your free wheeling bearings are worn and the one that is not as free is good. Especially since you replaced those bearings and it...

Hi, Either your picture or the badge is upside down. There are four KatAkana “. The last two represent ( sound out) TORA which means tiger. Remember the Pearl Harbor movie TORO TORA TORA? The first two are pronounced Bu Ru in Japanese romage, which actually sounds like Boo Lou in English...

I think it would be wise and not too costly to change the front tires. The R4 rears you have are listed as the standard size for the tractor, according to your first post. Replace the R1s on the front with R4s that match the rears, and your worries will go away. (At least as long as the rears...

Not sure if my answer qualifies, as I have a BX2200, not a BX25. But I think they are very close to being mechanically identical, less sheet metal. But I can tell you the only time my BX2200 refuses to climb in low gear is when it runs out of traction, or when my pucker factor tells it to...

Dave, I do not know what that drive shaft is from, and I do not doubt it may be splined in a way that prevents assembly other that in one orientation. My recollection is that the front drive shaft on the BX Kubota has splines evenly spaced, and actually can be installed in multiple...

Someone else with more knowledge can reply, but I though you need to bleed air out of the system at the injectors, not at the line coming into the injector pump. Perhaps you are not doing it correctly? Just food for thought until someone with actual knowledge replies...

I am having trouble understanding how engine horsepower could drop without a proportional drop in PTO HP...assuming that everything else stayed the same, the losses before the PTO output should remain the same...less HP in, less HP out to the PTO...

Dave, That may be the case with PTO shafts but it is not the case with the front drive shaft on a BX Kubota. At least not on mine. There is only one hole in the shaft that the u-joint attaches to using the roll pin, and multiple spline positions where the shaft goes in the other end of the...

When you install a u-joint it must be "timed" to match the other u-joint. Maybe you got it wrong. If wrong there will be vibration. Timed means the physical relationship between the two u-joints is important. I lost a U-joint on my bx2200 last summer. Same issue, the roll pin sheared off after...

Not sure how Kubota could trade mark a relatively common name in Japan. Not as common as Smith is here, but common enough that we know at least one Japanese family with the surname Kubota...:) Good guess though...;)

I foam filled the R1 tires on my BX, due to getting flats, over twelve years ago. First the fronts, then shortly thereafter the rears. Been very happy with them ever since. The guy that filled them said they could adjust the pressure they cured at, and would be somewhat similar to air filled...

Looks perfect. You are going to love having T&T. Not sure why you had to take the rear tire off the rim though...:D

Are you crazy? Only if you do not keep the BX and add a second tractor to the stable! :D

Be very careful on side slopes! I have WW fluid filled tires on the back of my B2910, and a few years ago while using my box blade and filling in a dip, I did not notice how close I got to the small edge (not high at all, maybe 16" max, and the overall slope was very little), and when the...

Thinking about it, it is probably wise to change the fuel filter periodically. I was thinking that it would clog up like last time, and would become apparent when it needed changed, and that it is a simple thing to do if you have one on hand, so why not just wait until there is an issue. Now I...

I am no mechanic either, by a long shot. The only issue you will have to overcome is how to push the roll pin out. I used a C-clamp to push mine in, but did not have to remove one, since the issue was in my case the pin was missing. I THINK if I were to push the pin out with what I have on...

Rentthis has the answer, but curious why you are changing the fuel filter. Seems like you indicate this is not the first time. I did change the fuel filter in my B2910 once over ten years ago, and that was after buying dirty off road fuel I am certain. After changing where I get my fuel I have...

Disassembly is relatively easy, in case you decide to do it. I know because I lost the u-joint at the other end and had to replace it (then found the original on top of the mower deck afterwards...) The u-joints are held in place by a roll pin. Push the roll pin out and the u-Joint slips on the...

Does your PTO also get power to turn through the clutch? Do you also have the same issue with powering something with the PTO, like a brush cutter or something requiring some torque to start turning? Suggest you might try something on the PTO, just to prove it is very likely a clutch issue...
