I struggled with exact situation. Didn't want diesel filter (b3350), but didn't think b2650 was enough HP. L3200 was almost a go. Then wife sat on b2650 and just felt better on it than the L. So...I bought the b2650. Right around 17500 with loader bucket and delivery. Plus tax close to 20. But...

Thanks so far for responses. Its funny, really, just how concerned I can get over my botas well being...

No. Gasket separated from old filter when I removed it. I didnt notice gasket was stuck to crankcase till I completed oil change, engine got warm, and started leaking. I'm just worried about piece (if its even in there) will get into cylinders/head/somewhere it can do harm.

Great. Finished 50 hour service. Started her up and let it idle. Noticed new oil filter leaking. Tightened more. Still leaking. Removed and noticed old gasket still in there. Pulled out gasket and a piece about a 1" long, 1/8" wide is missing. Looked around but saw nothing. My paranoia tells me...

Just returned from parts store... Oil (15-40) and filter. HST, hydraulic, and fuel filter. Figured that's more than manual states. Thanks for all (mixed) opinions. I'm keeping hydraulic fluid in just so I have something to stress over... Probably end up changing it. More concerned with oil...

New B2650 is ready for her 1st 50hr service. Manual states oil, oil filter, and HST filter only. I've read where others go beyond that. What's your thoughts? Also, manual isn't specific about what engine weight oil to use. I live in north florida, where cold isn't an issue. Thanks all!

Hey all. Got my first 3 pt hitch implement. Thought I could basically hook up my box blade and run over my driveway and that would be that. Guess I was wishful thinking. Seems the blade doesn't rest on the ground like I thought it would. Every time my back wheels rise up going over unlevel...

OK. So I wasn't sure how to check pressure on rear tires, cause water just dribbled out on my tire gauge. But, looking at tire I could tell it needed a bump of air. Put some in, looked at bucket, and ha...level. Think I'll need to read up on how to check loaded tires.

Ha... sounds logical enough. I'll take a look when I get home from work. The tractor is brand new, which made me think its something with install.

Got to looking at it, and noticed when I drop it to the floor of my garage, the left side hits first. There is about an inch that is not touching on the right side. I know I'm a fool for detail, but is this normal?

So I'm not alone! I also just recently purchased a short sale house on 6 acres where a tree man lived. It seems he used this house/property as a lay down yard for ones he removed elsewhere. Same reason I bought my b2650. Lots of hidden treasures every 3 feet I clear.

Grandman, what did you end up paying for your l32 if you don't mind saying. It seems the b2650 is really close price wise, and I'm still trying to figure out why.

Ezlife... the piranha bar is pretty nice for ripping up small trees and bushes. Sinks itself into larger trees as i push em over. It helps with grabbing a bucket of mulch. It is built solid. It does not, however, help to pick up those trees it digs up as well as I was hoping. Maybe I just need...

Turned 20 hrs today. Yep, you are right. This b2650 is the perfect size for me. A lot more power than I'd anticipated. This is my first tractor and I had no prior experience to base my purchase on. So far I'm loving it.

Not silly at all man. My dad laughed at me when he heard I got one, now he's asking when I'm getting a trailer so I can bring it over. I've recently bought a neglected house on 6 acres... my b2650 does in an hour what I can do in a week. Love my Kubota.
