Well, I got the detent repair kit form Messick's this week, and I got it installed this afternoon. Was pretty easy to change, but you have to take the cover off the bucket curl spool to be able to get a wrench on the loader spool cover. I don't think I would have needed to, but I also changed...

That's exactly what I did this week. What a huge difference. These are the ones I bought from Amazon. They're 1700 lumens, and they're BRIGHT. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BRDQ6RK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

The problem with making devices larger in the 3rd dimension, like cubes, is the problem of heat dissipation. Devices with more gates or transistors produce more heat, and if you stack more of them up on a die the problem gets worse. Increasing the clock speed adds to the heat problem in addition...

Now THAT is a nice cab. I also didn't notice if he said how many hours he had in it's construction, but the final result was worth every minute. He is obviously a very skilled craftsman and metalworker and should be duly proud of the result. I've been looking for a cab for my BX2230, and I'm...

How is this? I changed the perimeter tubing to a more realistic 1.5", and the cross tubes to 1".

Sounds good to me, just be sure and put a good crosshatch pattern in the liners. You will probably be able to see the original pattern in the liners, just try to match it.

Friends don't let friends use ether. Ah yes, GM 2 strokes. I had a long love/hate relationship with them back in the '70s and early '80s. We had a Marion dragline with a 3-71. We put a LOT of hours on that machine. Once it got to around 12,000 hours, if it wasn't hot and the ambient...

Thanks, I thought about doing that. Don't know how any moisture can get in there, but I'll at least give it a way to get out.

My BX is a 2005 model, and I don't know if it was stored outside, but by the generally good condition of the paint and lack of any rust, I would say not. It's a little puzzling as to how water would get into that area, as it screws into the valve body tightly and the end of the cover has a plug...

I recently purchased a BX2230, and one of the first things I noticed was the bucket valve will not go into the float position. Talked to a local Kubota dealer and everyone there said it has to have a float position, all of them do. I even had a friend that has an identical tractor look at it...

I've been working on ideas for a custom brush guard for my BX2230, I so I used Tinkercad to design a scaled down one to see how it would look. So, this is what I came up with. I will talk to a local fabrication shop to see what it would cost to make it out of 1 1/2" steel tubing. I can have...

For that kind of money, I'll stick with my trusty ol' Lincoln pump gun with a latch-on coupler. I can buy a LOT of grease for $170.

Well, I found the reason the HST light was on. The blue/white wire under the seat was connected to a black wire that was connected to ground. Once I disconnected them, the HST light went out. Why someone would connect it to make the light on all the time is a mystery, but now I know what that...

Thanks for the info. I know I saw the work light wire under the seat and close to it where the harness tees there were a male and female wire outside the harness plugged together. It seems like one of them was black or red. It wasn't really a big concern since I new it wasn't overheating, I was...

I recently purchased a BX2230, and sometimes the HST light comes on, even when the tractor is cold, and I haven't been able to track down where the sensor is located on the transmission. The transmission fluid was changed at the dealer before I bought the machine, and it is showing full on the...
