    What should I do with these dang R4's

    Groove the tires my friend, I did mine recently and the results are nothing short of dramatic in the snow/ice anyway. But, you should talk to your dealer, maybe they will do a swap for you to R1's-it certainly worth asking...

    Mounting snowblade on FEL using quick hitch

    You have a few basic options: 1) Buy the OEM rear remote kit and run long 1/4" hoses from it all the way to the FEL. 2) I think Kubota makes a true 3rd function option for your machine that is made to do exactly what you want. 3) Buy a "diverter" from me or Brian at Fitrite Hydraulics, this...

    FEL float ???

    Um...the 3PH naturally floats since there is no downpressure on it, no "position" required.

    Hydraulic Quick Connects

    I just looked these up at my supplier, I must say that I was surprised to see that they carry the FF couplers in 1/4" and 3/8" sizes since I was only used to seeing the 1/2" sizes used on most skid steers. I think I might start carrying them...

    Hydraulic Quick Connects

    I've always had great luck with Pioneer/Parker, or Safeway brands. The FF ones are nice, but expensive and usually much larger than we need on smaller tractors since they have such low flow rates.

    Hydraulic problem, Bucket stick left gets fluid from both hoses???

    I replied to your post over at MTF, as I wrote there is sounds like you are seeing the regenerative function of the valve. But what doesn't make sense is it should be the opposite of what you wrote, fluid from both hoses when dumping or stick right. Here's a good thread to read...

    Should we have series-specific forums?

    My suggestion would be to add some moderators who are online frequently to deal with the spam messages. No way should it take 24 or more hours to delete them especially after they are reported.

    bx2200 with la211 FEL

    Some of the early BX's like your 2200 came with a 3-way valve that would NOT operate a plow blade. Might want to verify what valve you have.

    Bucket capacity

    Knowing what tractor/loader and bucket size would help us a little to help you... Example, this doc shows some info for BX tractors: http://www.kubota.com/product/bx1860/pdf/bx60_series_spec.pdf Shows the bucket struck capacity at 4.2 or 4.9 cu/ft depending on the model.

    Proportional valves for 4-in-1 FEL? Top-N-Tilt?

    I'm not sure what setup you've been looking at, but none that I know of have two rocker switches for control of the TnT cylinders, there is usually a spool valve with levers to do that. A third spool can be added and extended to the front with 1/4" hoses for another function on the loader...

    Proportional valves for 4-in-1 FEL? Top-N-Tilt?

    You can add a stack valve to the rear of the machine, usually bolted to the ROPS or fender on the right side and plumb it with Power Beyond from the FEL valve. "Somewhat Economical" is very subjective, the only cheap things about hydraulics are o-rings and advice on forums. Contact Brian at...

    Worth converting a snow plow to fit a BX?

    I didn't say a plow was "a plow is only good for 1 or 2 inch's of snow", I said it was faster than a blower in that much. He has a blower for the heavy stuff if the blade proves to be a bit much for his BX, and a plow would be a good compliment to his setup for smaller snowfall's.

    Worth converting a snow plow to fit a BX?

    Plows are great if there is only a little bit of snow, like 1 or 2"-much faster than a blower also. Since you have it, I say go for it and take some pics;) Does it have cylinders on it? Might want to research and add a crossover relief valve to it to protect everything also.

    L-Bolt for FEL

    My opinion, you'll never regret fixing it correctly the first time.

    power beyond on l2850 bf500 loader valve

    Welcome to OTT! High Pressure Carry Over is the same as Power Beyond. Your valve should have 7 hoses if its equipped with Power Beyond, 4 to the loader (work ports), 1 from the pump (IN), 1 to tank/sump (OUT or T), and the final one to the tranny case that intern feeds the 3PH (BP/BYD)...
