    Tire Valve Stems

    Had the rubber stems replace with metal when loading with rimguard/beet juice. Had my local tire dealer do it. Didn't think there is alot of different sizes. Not much help.

    Trailer ramp problems

    Would seem to me you need to weld/bolt on some sort of lip or hook to secure them to the trailer. My trailer has the fold down ladder type ramps which are attached to the trailer securely and provide rear trailer support when loading. Some use crank down type of jacks installed on each side...

    Backhoe tips and tricks (asking not giving)

    Install a thumb if you don't already have. Not going to hurt moving with BH. Some suggest having the tractor in neutral when doing this. I have fashioned a device to push/pull on hydro pedal to move tractor without leaving seat.

    Towing bx2350

    Are tightening the filter to much when installing? Have you added shims to the hyd. spring increasing the hyd. pressure? Could be just faulty filter.

    HST Pedal Noise

    Hydro's will whine. Gear tractors will not or should not. You described a "grinding" noise. That is not normal.

    Looks like you did OK as long was your trailer's GVW's are sufficient for your tractor.

    Picture of your tractor on your trailer

    This is what I have. Just purchased. 18' (16' +2') 9990 GVW. Unladen weight of 1450 lbs. Did have the BX on the trailer but had removed it before snapping pictures. Amble room and pulls great. I know it is overkill for my BX however should I decide to purchase a larger tractor, I am sure...

    Supporting loader when under

    Alot of good ideas. Chaining the loader to a beam or truss is good but seems like it takes some time and extra effort. Safety is always important. I attached a photo of what I did. One on each side of FEL. Picture does not show, but the supports are on both sides of each lift rod. Some...

    Synthetic or Conventional motor oil in Kubota diesels

    After their break-in period, I switched to Rotella T6/5w-40 full syn in both my BX's and my son's BX. Now it seems very hard to get in my area. I stopped by my local AA store for another item, and they had 1 gal of it at $36. bucks. No more available. I purchased it. Home Depot used to have...

    Attachments for BX23S backhoe

    I think you will be very happy. I have the BXpanded thumb, quick attach, ripper and 6" trencher. I purchased the larger 16" bucket when I got my BX23S. I am looking for a narrower bucker, 8" or 12".

    BX23s Pricing

    From what I had heard the KTAC insurance provides good coverage, but I believe it is pricy. I did NOT use it on my three Kubota purchases. $23,500. sounds about right. Being you are getting the SSQA bucket, which is a GOOD decision, tell them to throw in adjustable front pallet forks for...

    You generally will NOT have individual rear brake pedals on sub-compacts as they are NOT used for actual farming purposes like your 2370. Light loader work and mowing. Did you obtain an owner's manual for your BX? PTO controls on left, hydraulic on right.

    Can't remove flat tire on my BX23S

    It seems from the many posts I have read, front tires on BX's are prone to leakage. If and when you are able to remove the tire and have additional issues with leaking, I suggest tubing them. I currently use a 1/2", 20-volt Dewalt impact on its lowest setting. If you end up using an impact...

    loader to SSQA differences...

    Most definitely an advantage to the skid steer type (SSQA) attachment. No additional lifting capabilities. If you have or add an additional 3rd function to the loader alot of additional attachments available such as a grapple. If you mow can can remove front bucket so it not hanging out...

    Sub Panel wiring question

    I am always in favor of big is better on the conduit size as it makes for pulling cable easier. Why would you want additional wire/s later to the subpanel through the same conduit? I do not believe it is allowed to have any additional LOW VOLTAGE TYPE conducts or cable with 240 stuff. Should a...
