    Kubota Suitcase Weights

    Going through the process of getting front and rear ballast weights for my BX. Looking at options from the Kubota dealer, Good Works, and Heavy Hitch. I'm fairly set on getting the Versa Bracket from GWT for the rear, and just a standard bolt-on front bracket from the Kubota dealer. Thing is...

    California does it again!

    I’ve seen the brown smog hovering over LA many times. It’s quite an impactful sight. Just sayin….

    BXPanded Great Customer Service

    Sheesh. The OP started a thread about how they were happy with a customer service experience, and some folks just want to drone on about how they’ve had even better customer service from other companies. Almost like a supreme one-upper. Give it a rest.

    BXPanded Great Customer Service

    Recently got a Piranha tooth bar from them. Website said 3-4 week lead time which made me nervous, especially these days, since that can often mean a 3-4 MONTH lead time or worse. But I got a notice right around the 3 week point that it had shipped, and it was at my door a few days later. Very...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Finally got my Piranha tooth bar delivered on Friday and installed today. Put it to work clearing a 1/4 acre at the back of my home property that has been neglected for years. Very thick brush with lots of heavy stickers and several young trees 1-3" diameter and a few upwards of 5" diameter...

    What nobody mentions about a BX

    I'm way more concerned about breathing in dirt dust and weed/grass dust when mowing and tilling all day, than I am about a tiny bit of diesel exhaust. And I won't even mention spraying herbicides. Some folks have interesting priorities...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    10 minute till job, that led to an hour of cleaning old burlap out of the flanges. That little pile in the second pic was only about a quarter of it. 🤨

    Auction Result (A Tell?)

    I enjoy watching TTWT's tractor auction videos. I think he mentioned in his most previous one that prices were coming down based on what he was seeing as well. With inflation, the lockdowns, more people doing remote work, more people moving out of cities, and shipping/logistics costs, I guess it...

    B2601 Rotary Tiller suggestions

    I run a 55" tiller on my BX2380. A lot of folks say I shouldn't do that. But the dirt on multiple properties doesn't seem to care too much at all that I'm 7" out of spec. :) Sure, it'll notice particularly wet/thick soil, and when I see the PTO speed drop a bit, I just slow down in those spots...

    Poor man mulch kit

    I just remove the guards and blow spindles off with compressed air after every few uses or after one hard use. Then reinstall. Also a great opportunity to give those spindels a shot or two of grease. Only takes 2 minutes, or about one-quarter-of-a-beer worth of time after mowing ;)

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Got a couple food plots in. About an acre total. Mowed and tilled once about a week ago, and today tilled again, seeded, fertilized, drug, and packed. Rain in the forecast for tomorrow!

    You must run incredibly fast tractors ;)

    Kubota Extended Warranty - worth it?

    Wow! I know it's an old post, but my guess would be that fella with the torn hydraulic cylinder dug his bucket behind a big stump and then used either a truck or a much larger tractor to then pull on the B to try and roll the stump out. Redneck fabulous.

    Radio in a Series 80 BX cab

    Ha. Yeah, I only find myself using 3M equipment when someone else is paying for it! It is the highest of quality, though. Usually.

    Titan Attachments 57" Ditch/Bank Flail Mower failure.

    Wow. I'm surprised they would weld such a thick linkage directly to such a thin plate, which is really just sheet metal. Definitely could use a stiffener plate there. If you send that to Titan, hopefully they'll update their design practices, since I'm sure that if they design like that on one...

    Radio in a Series 80 BX cab

    Don't have a cab on my BX, but if I did it would be a Bluetooth speaker all the way. It would be too easy. There are several types available that have various ways to mount them. Link below to one such example. I'd just pair that to my phone while playing music on the Spotify app. It's basically...

    3 Point Quick Hitch Suggestions

    Yeah, I think they came out with it just in the last few weeks. And the QH15 and others must have come off the LP website just in the last week or so, since I was looking at them on there just last week. Good luck getting one. My dealer threw his arms up in the air and laughed when I asked him...

    3 Point Quick Hitch Suggestions

    Land Pride recently came out with the QH16. I believe only major difference is it is designed for Cat 1 pins from the get-go. So no more spacers, etc. Haven't yet seen it, so can't confirm that, but I have one on order to replace my QH05. No idea what their delivery times to dealers will be.
