    CountyLine or Bush Hog 5' box blade for BX23S

    You guys haven't steered me wrong yet. Which is the better the manufacturer for a 5' foot box blade? The Countyline is the standard stock one for $750 and the Bush Hog is the CBX series for $800-850. Thanks in advance!

    Trailer for Kubota BX23S

    I have an 18' dovetail with a gate and it works great for my needs. Mine was a leftover and I picked it up for about $2700 if memory serves me correctly. If you can find one with spring assist on the gate, trust me, get that one as your back will thank you after a long day. I also put airbags...

    Drainage ditch need cleaned -- Using a BX

    Hi everyone, I thought I'd do a quick update. The middle buster worked pretty well overall. Where the ground was pretty soft & muddy, the tractor walked some, but that was no fault of the implement. Once the ditches & trenches get cleaned up and the surrounding ground dries, this will be a...

    Drainage ditch need cleaned -- Using a BX

    BigG, thanks for the reply. We have other tractor options. The ditches have been poorly maintained and it is probable that the BX will get stuck. The thought with the smaller tractor is that it can easily be pulled out if stuck and it will be a better option for us to straddle the various...

    Drainage ditch need cleaned -- Using a BX

    We have a small 100-acre farm and the spring/rainwater trenches and drainage ditches need to be cleaned out. Will a middle buster on a BX be a reasonable option for this project? I do not have any experience with a middle buster so any input would be appreciated.

    BX23S FEL Conversion

    Ok, guys, I need some advice. Unfortunately, I let a Kubota salesperson talk me out of a quick attach bucket and into a pin on. At the time of purchase, I did not have a need for another use other than moving stone, dirt and snow. His reasoning was solid as it was a smaller machine and the...

    BX23S - Bro-Tek or BXpanded skid plate

    Everyone - thank you so much for your comments as it has been very helpful for me. I did contact Bro-Tek and they sent me an image of the three skid plates which I have attached. While it is definitely more expensive, I am going to go with Bro-Tek. Given the fact I will not be using a MMM...

    BX23S - Bro-Tek or BXpanded skid plate

    Question for jmf78 - you mentioned a mid plate, I do not see a mid plate on Bro-Tek's website. I only see the rear and front plate. What does the mid plate cover? Thanks in advance.

    BX23S - Bro-Tek or BXpanded skid plate

    I'm looking for advice on which skid plate to get for the BX23S. The Bro-Tek looks beefer & stronger, but equally is more expensive especially when factoring in both skid plates. The BXpanded looks to be easier to remove/install. I do not run a MMM on this tractor and have no plans to do so...

    BX23S - Wiring question for adding ROPS lights

    Hi everyone, I'm looking for some advice on adding LED lights to the ROPS. My question is surrounding the wiring that is provided on the rear of the tractor. I found three factory wires taped up and appear to be for factory accessory lighting. One wire is hot to the battery, the second is...

    Trailer Advice!!

    In my view, get a 7,000 lb, dual axles trailer with electric brakes. Anything less is dangerous. I pull a Barron 18' dovetail, here's a link: http://www.trailerbaron.com/trailer/7000-gvwr-professional-grade/ Good luck!

    BX23S - What is the best size for a back blade

    Hi everyone, I am new to the forum and looking for advice on the best or ideal size for a back blade on a BX23S. The two primary uses would be for snow removal and levelling dirt (after digging a ditch, yard, etc.). I'm interested in an offset back blade for more functionality. Any...
