Piranha also has a smooth edge bar that attaches the same way. 2 bolts, off or on.

Keep in mind that the bigger the mower the more likely it will scalp on uneven ground. When I bought my B2320 I opted for a PTO finish mower behind the tractor. No more grass in my face when cutting on windy days as the finish mower is a rear discharge 8' behind me. The added feature is that...

Since my needs are limited, I wound up with a Honda Pioneer 520 with a dump bed. I looked at the Mule and they were unavailable at the time. I contacted Honda and Kawasaki dealers and told them to let me know when they get the machine in. A few months later Honda came through first and I would...

It may be too old of a thread to comment but what the hell. When I was at the Kubota dealer several years ago I brought up the 3 point backhoe in conversation with the manager of the dealer. He had been with Kubota for several years. He said they used to sell them at that dealership. I can't...

A land plane will probably give you the best results. However "jyoutz" makes a valid point. They are great for what they do....but it's limited. A box blade and do more and you can get similar results once you master the top link positioning. That and the loader is all I use on my driveway and...

Glad you came up with a solution. Here's another one....but I doubt it will be less costly that what you did. https://www.hudsonbelting.com/leather-belts

I think you made a smart move with that machine for your acreage. I have a B2320 and I have 5 acres and I think the machine is perfect for 99% of what I want to do. It's close in size to what you have and use it as much as I can. I bought it for some yard work and grading my driveway and it has...

I have a question and it relates to the weight on a three point attachment. I have a B2320 and a 72" finish mower. If I do not use a loader or front weights, the front end will easily come up when I lift the mower, especially if accelerating and going up a hill with the mower raised. I know...

I'll chime in about the imports. Most of the imports are the same as what you get here, but there are some copycats re-badged and sold as originals. But you probably will be OK even at the reduced pricing. But there is a caveat that many of the suppliers won't admit until you twist their arms...

That's great. I spent some time last week power washing my mower, box blade and loader. I'd love to enclose them to keep them out of the elements. My tractor look brand new.....the implements are turning Mary Kay pink.....but they still clean up well.

I bought a pre-made one from Titan for my B2301. I believe it was around $125. I filled it with concrete 1/2 blocks (caps blocks). They are about 30# each and I believe I fit 12 into the box. I went that route for a few reasons. First of all it has tubes in the corner for tools, shove and rake...

You are probably correct. But when you cap either end of interest rate, it directly affects the other. I think that being an educated borrower is a better solution. The market needs to be free to weed out the scoundrels. When everything is regulated the incentives disappear as well.

I vote for the coupler connection as well. It has happened to me on a couple of occasions.

40% of the goods in the USA come from China. No matter how resolute you are, you still own some Chinese made goods.

I'd like to make just one suggestion regarding the forks. Build a "spreader" of sorts to keep them straight. I clamp mine to the bucket and use a 18" wrench on the clamps to tighten them. That's not nearly enough to keep them from swinging. If they are going into a pocket, then not needed. I...
