    B2650 replacement door glass options

    Yesterday I managed to blow out the glass for the right door of my cab. Needless to say, I'm left with a giant mess, no door, and what looks like a pretty big bill to get new glass. I can get new glass from my local dealer for about $1,000 plus another $100 or so if I need to replace the gasket...

    Ideas for improving cutting edge on B2782B front mount snowblower

    Bearskinner - do you have any photos of the rear blade you use? Number two - our driveway is paved.

    Ideas for improving cutting edge on B2782B front mount snowblower

    Simply put, the cutting edge on my front end B2782B snowblower is terrible. If we get any type of wet heavy snow, and especially if anyone has driven down the driveway before clearing, the cutting edge simply rides on top of the snow leaving behind a layer that eventually packs to ice and stays...

    Kubota B2650 - Is it possible to use the FEL with the snowblower subframe mounted?

    Ok, thanks. Good to know. Too bad they don't work together but, as they say - it is what it is.

    Kubota B2650 - Is it possible to use the FEL with the snowblower subframe mounted?

    I have a B2650 with a FEL and a B2782 (63") front mount snowblower. The snowblower is easy enough to take on and off. However, I'm wondering if it's possible to leave the snowblower subframe on and remount the FEL in a pinch for limited use (for instance, to dig through a large snowbank at the...

    Any suggestions for where to buy parts online?

    The nearest Kubota dealer is almost an hour from my house. Does anyone have suggestions for online stores with good pricing for Kubota parts?

    B2650 stalling when pressing forward or reverse pedal

    It is still under warranty. I suppose I could get the dealer to take care of it, but it's such a hassle getting the tractor to and from. With these tips I'll probably be able to track it down. I'm pretty mechanically inclined so replacing a switch should be relatively simple (provided it's...

    B2650 stalling when pressing forward or reverse pedal

    Thanks, I'll check the switch. Is there a schematic available showing where it is?

    B2650 stalling when pressing forward or reverse pedal

    I have a low-hours 2019 B2650 that I bought a few months ago. Overall it runs excellent, starts no problem, and idles smoothly. I've used it probably about 10 hours without any issues. This weekend I was using it around the house and noticed that, when traveling in reverse, the engine would...

    Advice on used B3350 - go for it or keep looking

    Are there similar issues with the B3030 model, or is this specific to the B3350?

    Advice on used B3350 - go for it or keep looking

    Good question. I had assumed it did. Just reached out to the seller and it doesn't. He said he got a dealer quote for about $4800. So it would be $30k all in. Might as well buy new at that point. :rolleyes: The search continues... :o

    Advice on used B3350 - go for it or keep looking

    Well, as it turns out there was just a B2650 HST with a factory cab listed for sale - first time I've seen one with a factory cab listed for sale in a while. It includes a 72” plow blade and 63” front mount snow blower. Both plow and snow blower are all hydraulically controlled. Price is $26.5k...

    Advice on used B3350 - go for it or keep looking

    Thanks all, looks like I'll stay away from this one. I had thought maybe the $7k in engine work would have included some known retrofits to address the issue but it sounds like that's not the case. I'll keep looking.

    Advice on used B3350 - go for it or keep looking

    I've been looking for a compact Kubota tractor for quite some time. My primary uses will be snowblowing our 600' driveway (we live in southern Maine and can get some pretty big storms with heavy wet snow), grade our gravel driveway, and tackle other odd jobs around the house including...
