Hello leeds, welcome to the site and thank you for signing up! The official ballast box supplied by Kubota for BX and B series models is the B8160 ballast box with a list price of $186 and weight of around 102 lbs. But, you are right to suspect that with a front end loader you will need...

Hey Doc, sounds like you've got everything sorted. Thank you for coming back on the forum and letting us know what worked and what didn't - helps other people reading weeks, months or centuries from now who might have similar problems. :D

Hey shorn, Any update on this? Did Vic's advice work for you?

$2500! I think you got a good deal. How many hours?

Wow - another good sized fish. Food chain is right! :D Looks like everyone's hungry! Here in BC when the salmon come in to spawn, I've been on a river a few times, literally tripping over fish trying to make their way upstream, sometimes in water that is less than a foot deep. For jokes I've...

Hey Steve, welcome to the site! I am not surprised to hear that you are getting the cold shoulder from your local dealership. Kubota has struck the fear of God into future gray market owners and dealers alike with horror stories. We're here to help. I don't have that serial number information...

I'll tell you what - that socket was ugly as hell as far as sockets go. There I've said it. But, it got the job done and it was accurate. 46mm is hard to nail and he got it right on. Even with the socket we still had to loosen the block from the frame, support it on blocks and jacks so the...

Ok sounds good gents - I've added adding hydraulic plugins and an overview of the hydraulic system to the list as well. Good suggestions. What else? I hope you're not tired of seeing Vic's ugly mug...

Hello Chris, welcome to the site thank you for registering! Yep, that's the same Vic. Around here he's so handy he's known as Service Department Vic. I'm not so handy so I'll just stick with Mr. K for now. Glad to hear your Kubota's fixed up! :D

Maybe so, but had more get-up-and-go than the old lady, that's for sure!

HHF - hawk hills farm has 75+ acres of vegetable farm that he maintains as well - he'd be a handy guy to show up in this thread....

Hal, did any of these suggestions work? Where are you at on this?

Wait a sec.... you aren't thinking of waxing your tractor or anything are you? :D It's ok to admit....

Hey there benelli, Yep, that looks like the right part number, 70000-73712 for a quart of Bright Orange II. This orange shade is the newer of the two oranges that Kubota's come out with and I think it looks a little "redder" than the previous orange, Orange Enamel. We have listed on our...

Managed to scratch up some pictures. This isn't me in the photo (a fishing buddy instead) because I do not have any of me on this computer, but it shows the size of that fish. Not huge as far as sturgeons go but still a put up a good fight.

Shoe, I was looking through the profile pictures as I do now and then, and I see you've updated your profile pic with what looks to be a good sized fish: The pic is small but it looks like a halibut as big as you are! Nice catch! I myself get a bit of fishing done every now and then...

Hello there, thank you for registering on the forum and posting your question. I think Vic would have some insight for your problem - he's out in the shop at the moment but I've asked him to get back to you when he gets a chance. Hang in there, we'll get you some help! :D

RevDoc, with that kind of equipment and crew sounds like you've got quite an operation on your hands... would looooove to see some pictures of that. :D Share some more details?

Indeed! An excellent rant I think. :D I've heard that quite a bit actually - regarding the Kubota being the smallest piece of equipment on site. They are well suited for tasks that require a bit more... nimble piece of equipment. Here in BC in the Okanagan where all the vineyards and orchards...
