    BX25-D Fuel Filter Conversion.

    Well I had my attempt at doing a fuel filter conversion on the BX. I used a filter assembly from the Grand L. Most of us know that the fuel filters on the BX are just plain crap. You'd never believe what came out of my filter at 70 hours use. I show what came out of the filter in the video...

    Brand Spanking New Kobito

    Fine looking tractor. Oh your going to love it and wonder how you got by without it. I think of ours as the Swiss Army Knife of tractors. We have forks on ours and really find them handy.

    Rear Wheel Weights

    I have two on each wheel. They weigh in at 220 lbs each. You can put up to three on each side but I didn't want that many so I went with four. I added the center caps with nuts. It's a custom thing :rolleyes:

    Hydraulic Thumb for the Kubota BX25-D

    Thank you my friend. Oh ya. It rotted my socks to know they wanted almost $500. for that switch :mad: Until people start to complain companies will continue to act this way and it's not fair the way it is now. I really like the BX but I need to make it my own if you know what I mean...

    Hydraulic Thumb for the Kubota BX25-D

    Thanks Randy. You could take your hydraulic pressure from your back hoe and use a mechanical valve to operate it all. I'll see if I can find the link for you later on to show how one guy did it. Ya a 3-D printer would be great. I should ask wifey if there's one in our future :D Glad your...

    Hydraulic Thumb for the Kubota BX25-D

    Thanks guys. Skeets you crack me up. I should hire you as my agent :D. I was pretty rotted about the price of the switch and that's why I mentioned it a number of times on the two part video. There's no way to justify that cost. There's no new technology in it, there's nothing other than a few...

    Hydraulic Thumb for the Kubota BX25-D

    Thanks Dan. Your to kind :) Well Part 2 is done and the hydraulic thumb is now completed. After a bit of thought I came up with a design for the switch that I'm more than happy with and it only cost me $1.99. Take a look. It's a long video at 40 minutes but you'll get to see some of the weird...

    Custom back up generator shelter.

    Steve I have to apologize for not answering your post. I just didn't see it. Sorry :o That gen shelter has been a god sent to us this winter. We figured we'd never use it but the first time we lost the power was New Year's Eve and there was a storm on and record low temps and that generator ran...

    Land Pride grapple on the BX.

    MASTER! ME! :eek: :confused: I know you kidding right? :D To answer your question YES.
