    New BX23S with bad ram seals

    Yep, a picture would be handy but I’m betting the guys are correct about painting at the factory. Comes up quite often.

    LA344 / BX2680 Bucket Dump/Roll Issues

    Tom - as far as the roll function, completely normal in my opinion. Think about the geometry of the hydraulic cylinder compared to the cylinder's mounting point on the bucket. It gets to a point where the bucket mount is nearly vertical, and as such progresses the roll function quicker at the...

    Vacuum Sealer Recommendations?

    I think one of my short list was a VacMaster, but it wasn’t a chamber unit. Very nice, but $300+. That’s when I decided to try one first. I remember looking at your chamber unit and really liked it, but it just wouldn’t fit in the kitchen. I did get some extra bags, plus a couple 50-foot rolls...

    Search PTO Driveshaft for my MidMower

    In the US, Kubota has illustrated Parts Diagrams with Part Numbers. I assume Kubota Canada has similar ability. Since I'm in the US, I can't navigate the Canadian site. You would want to search your RCK60-27B mower model, and look for Universal Joint or shaft...

    Hot hydraulic oil

    Looks like you have a PTO shaft hooked up to the tractor? Were you using the PTO before taking the temp/picture?

    Weird tire issue

    At first I thought that’s typical for a GoodYear tire.... not a fan of GY tires for many reasons. For as many issues I’ve had with them, never saw that on on a truck/car tire, GY or otherwise. That’s bad juju, as skeets would say.... But it’s your trailer tire? What brand? Side note—- you...

    Definitely looks worn. Thinking a new key should be easy enough to get at a couple local places.

    Vacuum Sealer Recommendations?

    Well, I have to admit I didn’t take anyone’s advice. :oops: I did look at every make/model recommended. I found myself looking at some high-end sealers that were recommended, but had no experience of ever using one. Instead of throwing a lot of $$ at something I knew nothing about, I ended up...

    Bearing separator/puller delivered today. Fit just fine. The hub fought it some, but it pulled off just fine. I have several pullers but none fit....best to have the proper tool....:cool: As long as I was at it, I bought a slide hammer too. Had several instances over the years wished I had...

    Delco Remy Starter Restoration - - 1953 Minneapolis Moline, and many others.....

    I lied. Thinking just some odd- sized heads on the set screws. 16mm doesn’t fit well either. 21/32 is fine, and the set screws do thread fine and the barrel is fine on the 5/8” shaft. So it’s all SAE and not metric. Good news. I broke down and ordered a bearing puller that I think will fit...

    Delco Remy Starter Restoration - - 1953 Minneapolis Moline, and many others.....

    Looked at it tonight. Hubs are not even close. The heads on the locking bolts on new Steiner Bendix are not 5/8, not 11/16", but 16mm. So guessing metric thread as well??? Got a little disenchanted, so didn't take a picture.... Within 3 minutes Dad calls, "how you making out with the...

    Stalling Mystery

    Start with simple things. First, do you have a workshop manual (WSM)? If not get one at kubotabooks.com So it stumbles before it quits, it’s not like turning the key off? Do the flow test Roadworthy mentions, and let the fuel run a bit. Sometimes crap gets drawn to the tank outlet after a...

    Show us your Shop and Equipment

    Nothing special, but I just saw these things on Amazon a while ago (looking at Vacuum Sealers). Bora Centipede stand that can be used as a portable workstation. Little one, 2x4’ with a reported 2,500 lb capacity. $75 Seems kinda neat and sets up in a jiffy. Holders for 2x4’s flat or on edge...

    Weak Points on L534 Loader on B2650

    Sleddog - only replying to alert you I found the thread I recalled - 7 pages of it related to LA525. Didn’t read it all, but certainly appears the same. Posted the link above.

    Weak Points on L534 Loader on B2650

    Found it - - - LA525 FEL... I learned how to Google search the website. Gosh, I was thinking last fall....but it did have some posts into late-2019 and early-2020. It really bugged me. I remembered the thread and it being a similar issue that you had...

    What's cookin' boys?

    Ford - when I started cooking, I boiled wings for stock and threw them away. Nobody wanted wings. I make my own Buffalo-style sauce, but with a few twists. BBQ, garlic, oregano, etc. It's good enough to be sold commercially, per folks I've shared it with. Maybe my retirement business...
