This is a common problem on the b2650 ( I have one) the dealer in Northern Michigan had a mod of cutting the tube shorter and the intake ends up behind the radiator.. Rubbish in my mind.. then in the summer its pulling hot air. Mesh that was mentioned before is called FROGSKINZ I actually...

I never said this..heheh.. Buy a bobcat tractor they are white already add your yellow! At least they have Kubota engines.. :D

Quick attach is a must 60" bucket is made identical to the 54" lawyers make them say light material I WISH I got the heavier box blade, even with loaded rear tires. that being said if I fully load the 60" bucket it needs more ballast! I have picked up a used weigh bench when I get time I plan to...

Looking good man.. If you got it that cheap what a deal, its not that old of a mower as it has the flat free tires on it. Just upgraded mine after almost ten years of constantly being flat. I found Lobster Red Rust-Oleum paint to be almost a dead ringer for the new Kubota orange, might save you...

The only difference between the 54" or 60" is width, built exactly the same. The term light material comes from the lawyers ;). My dealer only sells the 60" he laughed and said either one can be overloaded its all in how it's used. That being said with either bucket I highly recommend filled...

Thanks, first off not trying to sidetrack this thread (sorry OP) I made the cover guard outta 1/4" SS plate . I had to slot the bottom holes that mount the solenoid valve allowing it to slide forward, flip and rotate a few of the elbows and re route the hoses as seen in the pics. Cut one corner...

Thanks I try to take pride in my work. If you want more pictures let me know. :D

I don't have the Kubota part numbers in front of me, here is what I did. I got the factory third function valve with the controls on the loader handle. I opted to run my hoses to the front for the future use of a grapple. I then ran a second set of lines to the rear with disconnects, for my...

All homiemade.. I put all the wire inside the rops tube, was able to feed them up the bottom and out from an existing hole in the top center of rops.

I highly recommend Fit Rite, Brian is stellar to work with and stands behind his product. On my B2650 I opted for only the Hydro top link as I have the ratcheting angle adjustment. I ran hoses back to the toplink from the Kubota factory 3rd fuction, this way I can swap lines and still use a...

My 2650 with front mount blower, had started to blow black smoke. The way Kubota makes the air intake just above the radiator it sucks all the powdery snow into the filter. Frozen and plugged right up. Been removing filter ever time I'm done dry it out overnight, now to figure out a fix...

Happy New Year, from one hill billy to another. Lol cheers

That sir is Saweeeat, and a super easy fix for the issue at hand. Does the blower edge still clean good on concrete/pavement?

A neat and useful trick I learned years ago, is to brush liquid dish soap on the tire and let it dry. A couple coats works best and paint way. Wash it off when done. Depending on the tire/ rim combination it allows you to get the rim lip painted Nice looking machine by the way.

Take a look at the pics in my profile I just got done doing this, on a bigger unit. your set up should be relatively easy. If I can help ask away. :)
