Your math looks right to me. It's probably better to use the rolling circumference specification from the tire manufacturer than measured diameter. I think tire pressure will affect the measurements so there will be some variability. I couldn't find my tractors front/rear ratio so I...

My vote for R34s would be the Carlisle Versa Turf's and similar tires, they were designed to be a more aggressive R3. The R14s seem to be designed as a less aggressive R1, but many say they do good on lawns. Maybe R143? :)

I added the steering stops when I put oversized tires on the front of my B26. I was worried they would cut down on the steering radius, but that wasn't an issue. The stops are just a little less than 1/8" spacer that goes on the front axel stop. $25 from Coleman Equipment, part# B4573. I...

I thought the difference between the regular and oversize rears was more line 4", I think the tire diameter difference is about 4" on the rears and 2" on the front, but you only get half that. Think circle radius vs diameter. Half the increase is on the bottom of the tire, the other half on...

I never understood the reasoning for the backhoe warning either. My machine feels more tippy with the backhoe on due to the extra weight up high. Loaded tires help with that. One theory I heard was that the roll bar may not be rated/tested for the extra weight in a rollover.

Interesting, I had not noticed this and have read the manual a few times. I just checked and sure enough it says: While the backhoe is installed on the tractor, the liquid ballast in the rear tires should be removed. While the loader is installed on the CAB tractor, the liquid ballast in the...

A lot of the youtube guys are pushing Lube Shuttle. I have a DeWalt cordless for my mower/spindle grease and a level LockNLube for the moly grease I use on the loader/backhoe. I decided to give the Lube Shuttle a try this spring for the loader/backhoe work and I've been happy with it. It...

I went with a B26 which has a BT820 that is somewhere in between the BH77 and BH92. I've rented a miniEX a few times and agree with the rental crowd, it will get more digging work done faster, and you can rent one a whole lot of times for the cost of a backhoe. I choose to get the backhoe for...

I believe you are supposed to replace all the studs first. You tighten all of them down to the axle flange, then slide on the spacer, then the attach the wheel.

I just added spacers to my machine a few weeks ago. Mine were Bro-Tech which have the 12 holes you were expecting. 6 through holes to attach spacer to the axel then 6 tapped holes to attach the wheel to the spacer. I think this setup is easier to install but has a drawback when checking lug...

Kubota UDT, Super UDT and Super UDT2 are three different products. I don't think Super UDT is sold anymore in the US, but appear to be available in Europe. Canada has Premium UDT just to add to the confusion. https://www.kubotausa.com/parts/kubota-parts-products/lubricants says "Super UDT2"...

I recently added a Top‘n‘Tilt kit to my B26 and absolutely love it when using a box blade. No more hopping on and off the tractor to make adjustments. My side link did leak down fast enough to be annoying, but I added a hydraulic check valve and it's fine now. I used cylinders from eBay so I...
