    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Agreed. Not sure why it is there at all.

    Question on Tools......

    One of my old supervisors used to tell me "Tight's tight, too tight's broke". I have 6 torque wrenches in my garage because of having to fix stuff he broke. Too tight was right with that guy.

    Bolt on cutting edge

    I bought the Piranha because everyone recommended it. I have a hard packed pile of dirt in my horse pasture. Took almost 2 months to get it, super easy install, but I am not impressed with hit, especially for the price. I got a lot of that hard pack out and used it elsewhere, but there is still...

    White smoke OK to run?

    White smoke in a diesel can indicate ineffective fuel burn in the combustion chamber dumping raw fuel into the exhaust. Possible causes range from clogged filter, bad head, faulty injector, intake gasket. If it was me, and it was an occasional puff that didn't sting my eyes (Raw fuel), I'd run...

    3PH bent? Maybe

    I have something similiar, but it is solely for moving empty trailers.

    This is the one I ordered from AI2. Be here next week.

    3PH bent? Maybe

    I had a 3 point mounted trailer mover on the tractor, and that is what I hooked to, and my issue happened. I will not pull with the 3PH anymore unless it's to move an empty trailer or pull the boat out of it's parking spot in the grass into the driveway. I think it does better if what I am...

    Norfolk Craigslist SSQA Backhoe

    Pretty sure 1 scoop could flip a BX over pretty quick, though I do have a ballast box now. Just need to fill it with millings.

    3PH bent? Maybe

    My tractor does not have a draw bar. Just a plate to mount a hitch ball. I ordered a hitch assembly so i can use a D-ring on a 2 inch hitch for any future pulling.

    How much you reckon this weighs? I'm sure way too much for my little BX. Bucket ergonomics don't look to use friendly to me either. Long shallow bucket the exact opposite of what I imagine is good. Didn't even know this was a thing.

    Lifting arm I saw online

    I can't find the video now, it was on how to box blade a gravel driveway.... anyway, dude had a lifting arm with a little handle like on a trailer jack. Just crank it one way or the other to extend or retract the right side lifting arm. Anybody know if something like that is around in the...

    3PH bent? Maybe

    I have not idea about what is standard these days, but on mine, what you see is what I got. No draw bar. I ordered a hitch that will bolt on there so I can put a big D-ring in it if I need to pull anything else. Just happy I didn't break something expensive.

    3PH bent? Maybe

    Well, I walked out there with a tape measure and a wrench. That nut on the right was not even finger tight. Spun it by flicking it. Got it adjusted and tightened, and checked a handful of other nuts, most were loose. I will give this thing a good going over, and finally check the fluids before I...

    3PH bent? Maybe

    I'll check that out. I honestly got this thing and went straight to work. Everything I know about operating a tractor I learned in the last 15 hours of using it. Thanks.

    3PH bent? Maybe

    Are you saying I should pull only from where the hitch ball would go? I had the strap on a 2 inch ball, but it was on a trailer mover attached to the 3PH, not on the tractor frame. Hoping it's just a bent stabilizer and not any of of that other stuff you said, because that sounds expensive. I...
