    BX24D Midmower Deck causing radiator to collect grass clippings

    I have about an acre of lawn which I mow with my 56" wide midmower deck . Unfortunately, the air intake is just behind the radiator, right over the the front part of deck, and it suck grass clippings from underneath causing the screen to plug up, resulting in engine overheat. Sometime I have to...

    2008 BX24D For Sale Recommendation

    Thanks, for chiming in. I appreciate that! I think, your suggested figure is about half of what I paid for without adding the mower, and the cab cover. Your are right, when I got it - didn't know what to look for, the plastic body had cracks. I bought a new one ($400) and installed it. Have a...

    Added eye bolts to mower deck

    Great idea! I made a dolly using two of the 12" dollies from Harbor Freight to store it standing up while not on the tractor, but I lost all the oil in the mower gear box. Is that normal, or something could be wrong with my 54" deck for my BX34?

    BX 24 Power Steering Cylinder Kit Replacement

    You are right! That is what I ended up doing, but not being a mechanic, it took me a few hours! I was under the impression that the hydraulic hoses needed to come off first. Now that I know how to do it, I could probably do it in a couple hours. Thanks for chiming in!!

    BX 24 Power Steering Cylinder Kit Replacement

    My 2008 BX 24 power steering cylinder was leaking fluid. I talked to my local Kubota dealer and he suggested to replace the power steering cylinder kit. Their tech told me to remove the unit using two bolts on each side, disconnect the power steering hoses. He also gave me printed instructions...

    used bx25

    As has been said, it is a good find - really low hours! I paid 13.5 for a 2008 BX24 with 600 hours. It has backhoe, FL, and front snowblower. I bought a used 54" mower deck for $1,600. Not to mention I discovered after the purchase that my rear fender is cracked and needs replacing - $420.

    MPG on BX2360?

    I think he is about right! If you live in the northern climate, where the mowing season is around 4 months, and you have less than an acre to mow. I'm new to my 2008 BX24, and started with a full tank of diesel for winter using my snowblower. I have about 220' driveway, 16' wide and still have...

    Twin Pedal Mod B1550

    The Forward and Reverse Pedals on the Orange tractors are designed by a moron! I bought my BX24 sight unseen. Just found out that I couldn't use the Back pedal due a knee replacement that went bad. I would have never bought it for that reason. I would much rather have a Green tractor where...
