Ask the salesperson at your local Kubota dealer to quote you the alternator upgrade kit cost. I upgraded mine using parts from Amazon and Messick’s for just above $200. I have seen similar threads on here where people actually got similar pricing from their Kubota sales guy. If you go to the...

Anyone know of a better way to protect these hydraulic lines on a BH70 (or similar) backhoe? I busted off a right-angle connector. It must have happened when the arm swung to the left and pinched a hard clump of dirt or a rock into this manifold. https://photos.app.goo.gl/Nycb5JrcAKiSWeLw7

I have the Landpride HD25 auger motor mounted to a SSQA and using a 9” auger. I am using this on a B2301 with no issues, except that I have rocky soil, so I have to go a little slower or I end up binding up. The LP HD25 is a good motor, but I also considered the Danuser PD6 hydraulic motor...

Agreed. I made the potentially incorrect assumption that since the Amazon seller included the part # that it matched the Kubota specs. If folks can get the whole 7311/7324 kits for close to $200, then that would be the best overall option for DIY. I did find a link to the specifications for...

I installed the step from the B2650 on my B2301 with zero issues. I used 3/4 inch long bolts and nylon lock nuts with flat washers on both sides. Works like a charm.

https://www.orangetractortalks.com/forums/showthread.php?t=44415&referrerid=40207 I installed my own alternator purchased on Amazon. I have about $230 invested in parts. You can do it cheaper if you see my thread link above.

https://photos.app.goo.gl/cQe4eL9wEYKuyLVYA The above link is to a video I took of one of my sons working the grapple for the very first time. As you can see, the 60***8221; grapple doesn***8217;t look oversized at all. My dealer confirmed it was either the 54***8221; or 60***8221; as ideal sizes.

I have the B2301 with the Land Pride SGC06 (60”) grapple, and Kubota 3rd function valve with button controls on the loader stick. The Land Pride grapple is made with A400 steel, which is very strong yet light. It weighs only slightly more than the 54” bucket. I’ve used it about 30 of the...

B2301/B2601 Alternator Upgrade - B7311/B7324 Kit Options One of the things that was frustrating me was the lack of information on upgrading the alternator on my B2301. I know that the B2301/B2601 are essentially the same machine (except HP), so nearly all parts are interchangeable. They both...

Re: Heavy load LED light bars on B2601 / B2301 I thought I would add my two cents to this discussion, as I am going to upgrade my 14.5A Dynamo to the 40A alternator as well. Reason being, I want my equipment to be as capable as possible, not as minimal as possible. I will be adding lights...

IÂ’m brand new to tractors and the Kubota brand, but have inked a deal on the promo for the B2301. I think it boils down to the application. I looked at the BX2380, and the BX23S, and had a good conversation with a very patient dealer. Like quite a few other new buyers, there were so many...
