    BX2660 hydrostatic pedal problem

    I was mowing in my yard and suddenly the hydrostatic pedal became inoperable like something came loose. I knew it wasn't the hydraulic system because the mid-mount mower and rear hydraulics still worked. After dragging out the mid-mount mower, I found a rod dangling that connects to the...

    Tractor Seat

    I received a nice tractor seat from a Kubota repairman, but took it back to him because the pins where it fits do not come out. They are welded on (first picture). He told me to take the plastic cover off of the seat and then take the brackets off of the seat. Put the brackets (second...

    BX2660 still getting hot

    I recently changed the oil, installed new thermostat, flushed radiator and filled with fresh antifreeze (<50% per manual). I mowed for less than 30 minutes in 78 degree weather and my gauge was just below the red line. The overfill tank was on the right level, but boiling. Last night before I...

    Removing brush hog

    I bought a new brush hog for my BX2660. My wife and I had trouble attaching the PTO. I finally went on easily, but we have no idea what we did differently to allow it to slip on. Now that I'm done, I'm trying to remove it. Because of the plastic cover on the shaft, I can barely get my hand...

    BX2660 brush guard w/suitcase weights

    I bought suitcase weighs and a bracket to offset my brush hog. Once I got home I realized I cannot mount the bracket with the brush guard attached. I hate to take off the brush guard, but I don't see much else I can do. I'm not one to modify and weld stuff. Online I've seen photos of a...

    BX2660 weights

    I'm thinking of buying a 4' brush hog for my BX2660. The weight of the brush hog is around 400lbs. How much weight would I need on the front end to counter balance the brush hog? Thanks

    Kubota BX2660 tail lights

    All the lights on my Kubota BX2660 work except for the tail lights. My turn signal/warning lights and headlights are fine. Is there an inline fuse somewhere I might check or could it be something else? Thanks, Bruce

    L245 Oil Pressure Light

    I just got my L245DT back from a Kubota dealer after having new seals and bearings put on the front wheels. As soon as I started it up, the oil pressure light came on. I checked oil and it was about 1/2 qt. low and dirty so I changed it using manual recommendation of SAE20. The oil light...

    BX2660 running hot

    My BX2660 seems to run hot. I can only mow for about 1/2 hour then have to stop and let it cool down. I recently changed the antifreeze and added 50/50 mix. Of course, it does better in cooler weather, but even in mid-80's, the temperature gauge quickly goes to red. Any thoughts? Thanks.

    BX2660 Tail Lights

    The rear lights on my Kubota BX2660 aren't working. The headlights and hazard lights work. I just replaced both bulbs. It looks like the fuse for the rear lights is the same one that controls all the other lights. Is there a line fuse I'm missing somewhere? Thanks.

    Kubota L245DT PTO

    My Kubota L245DT has a live pto. I recently got it back from the dealer after they put new bearings in my front wheels and took it for a test drive. I noticed that the rear pto was turning even when I had the pto gear in neutral. Is this normal? I didn't think it turned before unless I had...

    L245DT changing differential oil

    First off, I want to thank everyone, especially D2Cat and North Idaho Wolfman, for their help in getting my L245DT up and running. I have reinstalled the after-market power steering unit and have my tractor running great thanks to everybody. This is a great web site. I've replaced all my...

    L245DT won't start

    Ok, folks, here's the background. I had to take my gas tank off to repair my aftermarket power steering unit. (Thanks to everyone who gave advice on that project.) I emptied the old fuel out as it had be sitting for over a year. I covered all the holes to prevent wasps, water, etc. getting...

    L245 DT Steering Repair

    I have a Kubota L245DT. Someone installed an aftermarket power steering unit on it. From what I can tell, it looks like it came from a small riding mower. It lasted a little over a year after I bought it, then the fittings starting blowing out. No hydraulic shop has seen fittings like this...

    Kubota L245DT Power Steering

    My L245DT 4wd has a power steering unit installed before I bought it, probably right before I bought it. After about 80 hours, the hydraulic lines blew out. I installed new washers and it lasted another 20 hours or so. To make a long story short, no hydraulic shop has ever seen fittings...

    L245DT Power Steering Hydraulic Lines

    I have a Kubota L245DT with an after-market power steering unit by Eaton. It has unique fittings. Nobody in any of the hydraulic shops in my area have seen fittings like these. If you have (see picture) or know where I can get these fittings, please let me know. My tractor is no good to me...

    BX2660 hydraulics

    Should the hydraulics for the MMM and rear pto work separately? When I put a trailer on the rear and lower it, the MMM lowers all the way to the ground. This causes the wheels on the MMM to constantly be in touch with the ground and they are supposed to be slightly off the ground. Another...

    BS2660 won't start

    I've had problems with my Kubota BX2660 not starting because the F/R pedal doesn't always get back in the right position. But my problem now is that all of a sudden the engine cranks, but won't turn over. I can hear the fuel pump running. The engine tries turning over and the entire front end...

    Kubota 2660 Runs Hot

    My Kubota 2660 runs hot, right at the red line. I was going to flush the radiator, but can't find the drain plug. Nor can I actually get to the radiator because it's encased with the body and frame. I noticed that the battery is setting right in front of the radiator. Does the battery...
