Here's the oil I use in my Harley's motor. 4 quarts plus a filter. That's not counting the primary oil and transmission oil which are separate on a Harley. Now I consider this expensive oil.. https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/spectro-platinum-4-engine-oil

$150 is not a lot when you consider you only service the transmission once every 200 hours and that's much earlier than the recommended 400 hours. You can correct me if I am wrong. Hell, with inflation at what it is now, $150 is a dinner for two,minus the tip in a nice restaurant today. When...

Messick's order. There the next day usually. Two days at most.

Old saying " Don't step over dollars to pick up dimes." You know when you buy the super UDT2 from the dealership it's factory backed product. You get a receipt the you purchased it and the dealership has your history of what you bought on their computer system..The extra few dollars spent is...

I like oil debates. I ride a Harley which cost new over 30k..The Kubota BX over 19k with accessories. My Jeep is almost 60k new and the wife's accord over 30k. So, when you look at cash investment, what the heck is 100 bucks or so for oil ? It's like pissing in the ocean. The full synthetic...

Thanks Skeets. I went with the smaller deck because we have a lot of obstacles to cut around on our property.. The reason for asking about the spacers was I recently moved fifteen yards of top soil, we have a hilly backyard, so stability on uneven ground is utmost. I am going to buy a ballist...

Thank you guys, for your expertise advise. Much appreciated.

85Hokie, Thank you for your help.

85Hokie, I thought so too. I figured two inch spacers would be too wide for the 48 inch deck. Thank you

Maybe a stupid question but I thought I was ask. On a BX1880 is it possible to remove an clean the transmission screen without loosing all the UDT2 fluid? New tractor 25 hours on it. At 50 hrs or so I would like to clean the screen anyway. Or, should I just drain the tranny, change the filter...

Thanks Skeets..My concern is the small 48 inch deck. If, I use 2 inch spacers will that move the wheels out to far that they hit the caster wheels on the deck ?

Wondering if I can add rear wheel spacers to a bx1880 with a 48 inch MMM, deck ? If so, how wide a spacer I should go with ?

I totally agree with you..I have a Lincoln air gun and a small compressor..I can remember seeing from wheel bearings frozen till the wheel would not spin on a car back when I was a mechanic in my family's garage business. Regular maintenance keeps the machine in top shape.. Cheap insurance...

Well I wasn't trying to start a debate about grease..Just asking if anyone uses it or has used it and what they thought. I never heard of it but they had it a the local NAPA store..The Kubota dealer is twenty miles away and I had the deck off clean, sharping the blades and greasing it. The parts...

Thanks Mattswithcats, Good video.

Anyone try Green Grease ? Saw it on motor trend t.v. Wondering if anyone has it or does use it ? I've got tractors, equipment motorcycles.

I have three hooked up .One on the Bx, one on the Gravely and one on my Harley. All are plugged into a surge protector then into the wall socket.

Good idea Orangeglow. I was thinking maybe finding a small pedal and tack it to the arm in a lower position.:cry:

LoL, Murphy's Law..l live it.. Thanks for all the advice and expertise.I Appreciate it guys.

"Just thoughts…why not just haul the tractor with existing brake pedal attached to local fab shop and have them modify what you already have to fit your needs? Why buy a new replacement part to cut up when you already have one you can use?" My thought was to have a spare in case it doesn't go...
