    Custom Made Winterfront Kits for your Kubota Tractor

    I have a set on my LX2610 and found there is no need to run the sides, even in single digit temps. Below zero, I'd probably run them. Stopping the air going through the radiator is what warms it faster I run just the front, the tractor warms quickly. When working it hard, for me, it's...

    lx2963 vs lx2980 snowblowers

    The only one that could answer that for sure is a dealer, but, I believe the frames of the two tractors are the same, so with the LX K-Connect Module/4-Point Hitch and Sub-frame, the LX2980 64" Commercial blower should attach.

    Adding Hydraulic Lift/Angle to Land Pride RB 1572

    I added an 8", 5th wheel UHMW polyethylene plate between the angle and the orange frame to give the angle something to glide against. I did have to shorten the center tabs on the plate to keep it larger than the pivot tube. This plate allows the orange frame to support the center bolt like the...

    Adding Hydraulic Lift/Angle to Land Pride RB 1572

    I started by adding Kubota rear remotes on my LX2610HSDC. Not too bad if you're mechanically inclined. That accomplished, it was time to tackle the hydraulics. On the Land Pride site, I found the RB 1672 (the RB 1572's hydraulic optioned big brother) parts manual, which shows the hydraulic...

    lx2963 vs lx2980 snowblowers

    Find a new dealer. Stating the LX2980 is too much for the LX2610 is just hogwash. If it wasn't compatible with the LX2610, Kubota wouldn't offer it as an option. Period. I bought my LX2610 tractor for commercial snow blowing of residential driveways. Last winter was my first with the tractor...

    Custom Made Winterfront Kits for your Kubota Tractor

    Doesn't look like I'll be doing any temperature checks anytime soon here under those cold ambient temps as we have middle 50s coming this week and nothing below freezing in the forseable future. Might be something to revisit next Winter. Regarding a mod to the existing front cover, I think...

    Custom Made Winterfront Kits for your Kubota Tractor

    I cannot answer your question from any standpoint of expertise. All I can tell you, on my LX2610 (different engine), when my tractor gets to 4 bars and I pull off that 1st side cover, the air now coming out is HOT. I will have to test actual block temp with my IR Temp sensor next time I use...

    lx2963 vs lx2980 snowblowers

    First off, welcome to the Forum. Lots of great information here. Another good source for videos is GP Outdoors on YouTube. Gordy has done a great job of posting videos of not only operation of his LX2610 and various attachments, but also maintenance. I'm in Tomahawk, about 2 hours SW from...

    Custom Made Winterfront Kits for your Kubota Tractor

    I have a little longer term review of my covers . For temps in the 20's and below, I put all 3 covers on. Tractor warms up quickly. In the low 20s, I was at 2 bars within about 10 minutes. In the teens, it takes just slightly longer. Once I see 3 bars on my temp gauge (LX2610HSDC), I pull...

    lx2963 vs lx2980 snowblowers

    I'm located on a small lake in Northern WI, surrounded by other lakes. I guess we sort of think alike... Just moved here from the Southern part of the state in June 2020. Really like it here. Keep up the good work on the videos my friend! We're still hoping for more snow. Only about 1/3 of...

    Auger 16", impeller 21" and chute is 8" x 6". Dimensions are approximate, but close enough.
