    Maybe this year?

    Well, if you are in a deer area the fence around it is a very good start. My neighbor has a nice apple tree. His dogs eat the low hanging ones, and the deer clear out the higher ones. Cracks me up every year.😜😂

    Dump trailer questions

    There is nothing faster to upset a friendship than to loan out your things that cost you a lot of your hard-earned cash IMHO. In my 76 years on this big blue marble I have seen this same exact scenario. The old saying "buyer beware" is the twin brother to "lender beware". Sorry, but my...

    BX-tractor shift fork failure

    Well, a roll pin is way cheaper than a HST rebuild, trust me I've been there. Hope the best for you.

    BX to a B

    For me the BX 2380 is perfect for my needs. The B would actually be overkill. I love my FEL and it does exactly what I need it to do. I don't make heavy lifts other than to move snow in the winter and move dirt for the gardens. I have loaded rears and have never felt like the rear end was...

    GR2120 Mower Deck Blade Mounting Hardware

    Welcome and congrats on your 2120. I had the GR 2110 as my first Kubota. Loved the machine as it was a cutting monster in taller grass. I used to know a R Caputo when I was stationed in Gitmo in 1970. We was on the base power crew together. User manual Kubota GR2120-2-48 (English - 105 pages)

    How Hard to De-Green an MX5200?

    Buying used "anything" is always a risk unless you know what you are buying has been taken care of. Like Runs with Scissors said "most likely someone else has had the same problem and has already done the "heavy lifting" for you, Good luck on your choice.

    Best ideas for adjustable lifting strap or chains?

    I'm a big fan of wire slings, nylon slings and chain with grab hooks. But for me the chains win out for adjustment capability.

    3 point rakes

    As some may know last month here in northern Michigan we got hammered by a massive ice storm. I live more in the woods so I had a boatload of limbs, twigs, and a lot of pine debris. We did have a tree service come in and remove all the big stuff but now we are contending with the small stuff. I...

    Thoughts or advise

    I don't have a PTO driven mower, but I have found some long-lost wire, rope, and old garden hose over the years with my belly mower. Do you have a fel on your machine? If so, drop the mower, and hook onto it and hoist it vertical. Standing in front of it is a lot easier and safer than laying...

    Stumps I hate them.

    Pulled several stumps this summer. What a difference it makes when you have a piece of equipment that can handle the job. Dug around the stump and chopped the roots about three feet out. Put the bucket on my BX2380 against the stump and pushed and pulled. Came right out for me. Man, I love this...

    Kubota B2650 - Loader Questions

    Good luck on your quest. It seems when you aren't looking for a particular item, they are everywhere. Start looking and they just don't exist. 😒 Is that part of the dreaded Murphy's Law. :p

    Box Blade help

    Thank you very much for the replies. That's all-great info for me to use. As I said I'm new to using things like the box blade but I am learning. Where this implement will shine is spring for me. We live basically in the woods on a private gravel road that is maintained by a local excavating...

    Box Blade help

    Hello all, Call me Hoser, I'm new to the forum and I have a question for some of the more experienced operators here. Last year I bought a brand new Kubota BX2380 with mowing deck and FEL. This year I put together a carry all deck and just bought a used Land Pride box blade. Never used one...
