Now on my 10th Kubota, an older B7500 with a loader. The BX23S was just too sloppy!

Changed to a SSQA. Tractor (bucket) has 80 hours use which scratched the paint in a few places. Otherwise, perfect condition. $175.00! Call Jim at 6o3.6one7-ate353.

I'm trying to find a full cover for my BX23S. Does anyone know of a source?

Just replaced my fan belt on my BX24 with a variable length link belt from Amazon . Didn't have to move the engine or remove the drive shaft. Took about an hour after the loader, front guard, and the side panels were off. Seems like a very reasonable fix for a miserable Kubota service...

I can't find out where the key stop timer is located on my BX24. Help is appreciated!

I agree with all that bigger is better! Also, a possible consideration is a self leveling bucket (forks too) if it's going to see service as a forklift. An 1100 pound Cummins strapped or bolted to a pallet isn't pretty with a 15 degrees of accidental bucket roll. I believe one of the Grand L...

One other tip, Don't use FireFox as a browser for Kubota parts, it won't work! You must use Microsoft Edge or Internet Explorer.

It should be pretty straight forward. Use an open center, 4 way, 2 spool valve with "power beyond" capability. Install the inlet line from the backhoe to the inlet on the new valve and connect the outlet from the new valve to the input on the back hoe. The use of the new valve will interrupt...

If you only need 3 inches or so toward the center on each ramp and don't need to go back out to the fully spread width, get 4" longer pivot pins. Mount them so the excess length is towards the centerline of the trailer. Then move the inside ramp bracket INSIDE of the mounting tab. Pin the...

I can check in on my 2 piece fan as mentioned above. It's been 3 months since I completed it and everything is working fine!

Very nice build! I note that you're using a Lincoln, a quality welder! ... that's a far cry from a Harbor Freight Chinese imitation!

10:1 says it's the welder. Unless it's Miller, Lincoln, Hobart, or a small handful of others, quality becomes an issue. If it's made in China, double the odds of getting good results (and parts)!

I searched for a good used bucket for almost a year with no luck. A new bucket was just under $500 at my dealer, so this seemed like the best plan!

Thanks! Just sandy soil here in coastal NC. Haven't seem a big rock since I left New Hampshire!

Thank You!
