her mower started making some pretty impressive sounds on both sides. I assume it's the bearings and they're going out. I'd like to think they're pretty easy to replace, but that may be naïve. Anyone have any experiences with these mowers that would indicate anything other than bearings, and...

The 3 point arms go all the way down, the mower arms do not. Hence the question. I ended up lifting the mower up and connecting the lift arms to it. It still will not go down any farther than it did before. I did not check the speed control, but the 3 point arms move just fine, so I don't think...

Ok, so I know the answer is here somewhere, but I'm not smart enough or patient enough to find it. And I never thought I'd be back after the bx2200 owner and I split up, but here I am. So rejoice, or despair. lol The height adjustment was working just fine until we took the mower off to sharpen...

While I'm aware, it's not Titan, I seem to recall someone on the Piranha Tooth Bar thread with the same issue. When he called BxPanded, they told him the mounting bracket is soft metal for the express reason of having it pull to the bucket when tightened. Might that not be the case here? I don't...

Howard is a great guy... Dawn seems really nice too.

Dirtydeed- "lengthen the feedback rod to activate relief valve." Does that mean loosen the locknuts, or tighten them? When it says "move the control lever all the way up, I assume it means "raise the 3 point"? As I read it, the shims go inside the control valve assembly?

Dirtydeed- 1. Shims? 2. Bumped up relief valve pressure- how do you do that and what are the negative consequences of doing so? One shortcoming of the BX seems to be that the bucket could use some more lift. I shoved it into that junk pile Wednesday and it wouldn't lift until I backed up some...

I have done them justice- in posts about the PTB and Howard and Dawn, their phone people.

From my experience and what I've read from others, you should NEVER, NEVER, NEVER email them and expect a reply within a week even. If you call them, Dawn is really nice, and Howard is a great, polite, classy guy, but a little hard to understand because of his Indian accent sometimes. If you can...

Initial review. I used the bar on one of the junk piles. Got 4 buckets full out in a hurry, then uncovered a box spring. The good news is I think this thing will be able to catch it and tug it out, where the straight never would without a log chain or something. Then I took it around the house...

You're right about my rant. I didn't stop and think when I tried to lay the bar inside the bucket for a test fit. I clearly didn't think at all on that one. My frustration over this thing got the better of me and my brain just up and laid down and died. No excuses. I'll probably get their under...

Yeah, I'm a real Dick, aren't I? The whole hour or so it takes to make one of these (or 5 hours or whatever), because of me, is clearly going to add a few days, or maybe weeks to your delivery.

Nice attempt at Humor, Armylifer. Clearly, you read all my posts and fully understand that I checked the Kubota BX box AND measured AND was thorough in my questions and additional information in the additional comments section of the order page. In "American English", the "bar" does NOT fit...

I AM HEREBY RESCINDING MY PRIOR ADMISSION OF IGNORANCE AND STUPIDITY! (Though many would argue both conditions are facts) The mistake I made was reading the instructions! On page 4, item 4. it reads "...The sides of the Tooth Bar fit inside the existing bucket's sides." It should read something...

Dirtydeed- I'm glad you didn't say something- the next time I see someone else doing something like that (or hear it), I'll remind myself to be considerate as you were. Something I should remind myself of much more frequently probably. As to the biopsy and the cute nurse- your stunning young...
