    Hydraulic Thumb on BH77

    I think I understand. But I will want to use my manual control valve since I already have one. In this case, I will need the PB on the valve right? I don't see how it would work otherwise. So while I am not touching the valve, pressure will be maintained on both sides of the cylinder. But the...

    Hydraulic Thumb on BH77

    I've seen a few post where people talk about how to rig this up. I think I get the idea, but I'd like it if someone could confirm that this design is safe: Edit: I mean "bote", not "stroke" 2" bore is ok? I should I go 3" I understand the 2 pressure reliefs are required to avoid building too...

    Trading in for a l2502

    I'm not happy with them in the snow but nothing is perfect. So maybe they are the best but I can't compare. I had industrials on my bx23s, and I dont remember having issues in the snow. But different tractor.

    Trading in for a l2502

    I'm about to trade in my b2601 for a L2502. I have r14 tires on the b2601 and they're good. But not so much in mud or in snow. So I'm considering getting industrial tires and the l2502. Would it make a big difference in mud and in snow? Would I still need chains in snow? If I still need chains...

    Need confirmation that chatgpt is not wrong

    Wow. I didn't think I would spark such a debate. Haha. But good info. I was mostly wondering what kubota recommends. So basically "what is the minimum I need to do in order not to void my warranty". Thanks everyone, good inputs.

    Need confirmation that chatgpt is not wrong

    Before searching this forum, I decided to ask a question to chatgpt. Can someone confirm the accuracy of the response? The details of it make it sound pretty accurate. My question: I own a kubota b2601 and I need to do the hydraulic oil change for the 400h maintenance. Do I need to also change...

    Building a bike rack

    No, It stays screwed in tight. But it seems that no matter how hard I tight it, the assembly will still slide across the square bar if given enough force, such as driving with a 12yo suspension on a corolla. So I want to lock it into place. I was thinking something with a ratchet mechanism maybe.

    Building a bike rack

    I'm looking to build my own bike rack because I hate the one I have. I'm kinda limited with options since I drive a corolla (that's what happens when you spend everything you have on a tractor). The current bike rack I have is a bad design. The bar that holds the bike down has this clamp that...

    Looking for advices for installing cedar posts

    I did. But I have cedar posts already. Cheaper this way. I also like the looks of it. It looks more permanent and farm-like

    Looking for advices for installing cedar posts

    Ok, that sounds good. The posts are only used for a deer fence around my garden. So it'll be holding up a light net. So it sounds like this job would be easily done with a backhoe.

    Looking for advices for installing cedar posts

    I need to install about 10 cedar posts of 8" diameter. The soil here is rather rocky, so I think I would be wasting my money if I rented a gas powered post hole digger.I'm thinking I can just use my BH to dig 3' deep holes and then put a 10" sonotube in the ground. How tricky is it going to be...

    Correct, what I have now is 3/8 NPT female by SAE-8 male. The inlet ports 1/2 bspp as per the information you gave me when looking for a PB sleeve in another thread. Not sure why you need the size of the cylinder ports but here it goes: 1/2 bspp also. The plug on one of the cyl port fits on...

    Thank, I'll make some calls tomorrow. Bspp seems hard to find. I doubt I damaged the threads, it goes it very smoothly.

    The picture is old. It's from when I initially bought it. Everything is the same now, but with oil and diry all over it. I took a picture of the plug that can with the valve and it looks like the rubber is inside the head. Never seem that before. So yeah, not ORB it seems. And this is what I...
