    New L2501 next week

    I meant the total WITH the 3rd function valve. I got everything for about $1650 after shopping around. Grapple was $900 from skidsteerattachmentdepot.com (they changed the hydraulic couplers for free to match the 3rd function kit I ordered) and the Landpride valve kit was sourced from eBay...

    New L2501 next week

    Forks are mandatory. They do most of the work at my place. In fact, I leave the forks on it and only put the bucket on when I need it. Now I want a grapple, but that's a minimum of $2400 for made in USA....

    New L2501 next week

    Picked up my new L2501 HST yesterday with SSQA loader, 5' Box blade and quick hitch. My best friend asked me to stop on the way home to move a concrete table for him, so that's the first work it did. Forks arrive today. I upgraded from a BX2380 because I wanted more loader capacity. I...

    BX2380. Loose loader at 18 hours...

    I'm too busy to mess with corporate on this. It will take a bunch of my time and they are going to want the tractor for unknown durations. I have a metal lathe. I can turn some bushings to make it right and just move on. Honestly, I may just weld the pin in there and be done with it. As far...

    BX2380. Loose loader at 18 hours...

    Update: My dealer did the right thing and ordered another QH mount, but the new one is just a loose as the original. They told me it's not a defect if Kubota is intentionally manufacturing them that way. I don't have time to waste arguing, so I took my original part back and I'll fix it...

    BX2380. Loose loader at 18 hours...

    And with this, I have 5 posts, so it won't happen again. :) I apologize for the inconvenience, but trust me, it was a bigger hassle for the new guy to post his information than it was for you to wonder about my posting habits.

    BX2380. Loose loader at 18 hours...

    Yes, you may. Because I'm new here, I was unable to post links to video until I had 5 posts. I posted some filler so I could present the links to the relevant material and then deleted the filler because it was no longer necessary once I had the video links in the original post.

    The service manager at my dealer my be setting up to dig in his heals on this. I'll know more on Monday, but I told him to be prepared to give me my part back or give me a new one on Monday. Stand by....

    BX2380. Loose loader at 18 hours...

    It was greased at the dealer pre-delivery and at 10 hours by me. As you can see in the video, the pin is tight in the end of the ram, but loose in the mounting plate. In normal operation, the pin is stationary in the plate and rotates in the end of the ram (piston). There is no provision for...

    BX2380. Loose loader at 18 hours... (Updated with Video!) Hi Guys, First post. I replaced my trusty BX2360 in December because I really liked some of the new features on the BX2380 and wanted to upgrade to a Quick Hitch on the front. From the very beginning, I noticed that the bucket would...
