    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Like @biketopia said, usually the headlights are about worthless if you have a loader or snowblower on the front. The bucket makes a better door than window...... :oops: That said, I've changed all my BX lights to LED. Makes a big difference. Most of my snow removal is done in the dark...

    Removing Tie Rods on BX1880

    Wolfman - - I'd bet for the OP it's 50. Pulling them apart you tear 60. I did. Need to get both. We had several threads about the BX boots here. Guessing 2015-2017? Mine were shot on my 2011 tractor within a couple/few years. K used to have P/N's for the boots, but changed to tie rods...

    Snowblower chute rotation

    @k countryman - - if I had a problem like yours, the first person I would seek help from is Dan aka @TheOldHokie. You have Dan's attention now. If I were you, I would follow his direction NOW until the issue is resolved. I have great confidence that Dan can get you to resolution. He's done...

    Hunting and game posts

    You thinking Rut is over, or have they figured who's "The Boss"? Down here couple guys were thinking Rut was late, but not sure there was any scientific rationale involved. I haven't hunted deer in many years (love venison). I think our Bow season starts 10/15, gun season 11/15 or so, and...

    What's cookin' boys?

    We tend to use Pecorino Romano cheese at home versus a Parmesan cheese. Availability can be sketchy out here in the sticks. Found a 3-pound wedge on Amazon for a very good price. Locatelli is the same brand we get at home when available. Came very well packaged with freezer ice pack wrapped...

    Removing Tie Rods on BX1880

    I used a pickle fork to get mine off. One side required quite of bit of time with a BFH. I know it's too late, but I was able to get replacement inner and outer rubber boots aftermarket several years ago. Better than OEM - - in fact much better than OEM. Lot cheaper than replacing...

    Snowblower chute rotation

    Wow - that's not a lot of information to go by. Is this an LX3310 tractor? Or an L3310? What is the model of the 51" snowblower? How are the deflector and chute rotation powered? Hydraulic (I assume) or electric (possible)? If powered by hydraulic, is it through a third function? Do...

    Claustrophobic and have a fear of heights?

    I'm terribly afraid of heights. More so as I've gotten older. Used to have to help hang blower pipe in silos as a kid and throw down silage as we didn't have silo unloaders. Means climbing up the doors of the silo. Didn't like it as a kid, was less tolerable as a young adult, and...

    Snowblower Revs on a BX2680

    I've seen here on OTT several folks use a non-stick spray. I never have, so can't criticize or recommend. I figured I can't keep paint on the second stage or chute (stone driveway), so thought spray would be scrubbed off in the first 30 seconds.

    I remember when he passed. He was with you always. So hard to lose them...... We get to this time of year and I remember Ollie. He passed 1/1/2022. Geddy is great, but I still call him Ollie on a regular basis. A painting wife’s friend did of Ollie. We actually have two paintings by...

    Thinking about going from B2601 to L series

    @racerboy - apologies if I missed it, but do you anticipate trading or selling your B2601 if you get to that point? Just curious. I’m guessing your B could bring pretty strong $$ in NJ. I should have bought a B instead of a BX 11 years ago. Love the BX and have learned to live with its...

    What's cookin' boys?

    Said here before we typically do Christmas early since two of our three children along with SIL’s have long trips to get to upstate New York (and the freaky weather we can get). We don't have any grandkids. Not sure any of our kids are planning children, and we're fine with that. Their...

    Just realized they don't look very clean. I think I had just used them..... :oops:

    What's cookin' boys?

    I sharpened these and a few others up a couple weeks ago on a good stone. Worth the effort. These are 3 of my favorites and are very sharp.

    Timberline Chain Sharpener

    Does look pretty slick. I’ve always hand-filed. There’s times where they get out of whack and can be hard to get back filing by hand. Something like that could restore them better than I can - like @Flintknapper says.

    Tire Chain Repair

    I've had great luck with 8" rubber tarp straps. Used them for many years. Can't typically get them in the store that short, but was able to get them on line pretty cheap. No reason to frig around with different threaded BS. Just my own opinion and experience.

    What's cookin' boys?

    We’re getting some stuff ready for our early Christmas with our kids next weekend. They have a lot of travel to do this. Better early for airlines as well as weather (sometimes). We’ve got a batch of Italian Wedding Soup cooling off in our makeshift walk-in cooler (garage is 40 degrees). Top...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    True - - he found a red whiffle ball as well. They're small enough that they would go through the chute without a problem. I picked up his Jolly Balls. They could cause a problem with the snowblower. ;)
