I've bought, rebuilt/fixed/overhauled and resold a couple of tractors, several motorcycles and various other gas-powered odds and ends. Lost my shirt every time. And that's just on a cash accounting basis, to say nothing of my time. But, I enjoy the process, so I just chalk it up to...

The last three years, I've gone to fire up the AC in the Cabota (my B2650) and it didn't work. Each time it's been a blown o-ring, two in the compressor and one in the evaporator. So, this spring the AC isn't working AGAIN, and I assume there's another issue, probably a @#)$(*ing o-ring. So...

I posted a topic on the original version here. The right angle drive I used was VERY used when I got it and didn't like being run upside down, probably due to lube issues. In any event, it failed catastrophically. I decided to resurrect the project this Spring and got a 30 hp-rated brush hog...

Got our annual Big Sloppy Wet March Snowstorm today. Neighbor had a tree split and come down across the driveway. Asked me to bring my tractor and shove it out of the way enough so he can get out until he gets a chance to cut it up. In the process, must have hooked a branch into my front...

Just like the title says...what is the smallest (non-BX) Kubota that can be had with both a cab and a gear shift transmission? Cruised the Kubota site, not looking good until you get into the 50+ HP range which is way more tractor than I could use or afford.

I haven't looked into it yet, so the solution may be as simple as a linkage adjustment, but my B2650 wants to creep forward when I take my foot off the pedal. I can "tap" it back to the neutral position and watch it slowly creep down until the tractor starts moving forward. With the brake...

Got hired to cut the brush on a waterfront lot. Hasn't been touched in years, dead trees down, rocks, holes, stumps, debris, lots of woody brush we call hardtack bushes, alders, wild cherry, wild roses and climbing vines. Told the lady I'd do it for $50/hr when running the tractor and rotary...

and get out of bed. Went to till a spot that I know is a huge pain. Hard to get to, down over a steep hill and in a corner between a house and a fence. Got one pass tilled and the tractor died. Long story about why posted here. So anyway the tractor is dead in a place that there's no way...

My tractor died on me, just like I'd turned the key off. Wouldn't do anything when I turned the key to the start position. After checking all the usual culprits I noticed the dash was not lighting up. Started checking fuses and the Panel OPC fuse was blown (5 amp) Replaced it and tractor...

B2650 with a LA534 loader. Moved a bunch of wet topsoil yesterday, noticed that front tires were squirming pretty badly, especially when turning. I assumed pressure was low but I checked it this morning and it's 30 PSI which I would have thought would be adequate. What are other folks...

can one buy shafts of varying lengths to fit the mid-PTO on a B2650? I've got the first inklings of an idea simmering in the back of my head and everything else would depend on being able to get a PTO shaft that extends at least to the front differential. Further would be better. Perhaps off...

I have a dump trailer that I built using what I had laying around. It's okay, but it won't lift much because the cylinder is too small, it's direct lift and the geometry is less than optimal. I want to build my own scissors hoist and go with a shorter stroke but much larger diameter cylinder...

I've been wanting a way to trim ditches and under trees. Sicklebar and disc mowers are just stupid expensive and it doesn't make any sense to spend four or five grand on something you'll use for 2 hours twice a year, if that. They sell a commercial version of a 3 point hitch mounted string...

Never mind. Too early to narrow things down.

The AC is out on my B2650. Again. Was out last Spring first time I wanted to use it. Kubota dealer fixed it under warranty while I waited. Bad o-ring on a compressor fitting. Out this Spring. Local mechanic replaced the same o-ring and fixed a leaking Schrader valve. Didn't last, went to...

Last Spring (2016) on the first warm day I fired up the AC as it was getting pretty warm in that greenhouse of a cab and....pffffffft. Nada. Hustled it up to the dealer and they fixed it tout de suite at no charge. Turned out it was a blown o-ring on the compressor, dumped the charge...

I've lost a couple of lenses on the upper flashers on my Kubota B2650HDSC. Mowing under trees and such they get rubbed on a lot. Blowing snow after the recent storm, a lot of the trees next to the drive had branches weighed down with snow and I finally broke one plumb off. Ordered a new one...

After pricing full-size grapples and the necessary hydraulic bits to make them work, I was pretty depressed. Completely out of the question with my budget. Then I saw a post about "thumb grapples" from Green Machine in Illinois. This nicely priced unit, plus avoiding all the expense of a...

The dealer I bought my B2650 from loaded the R1 Ag rear tires as part of the deal. It's been sitting a while (mowing season over, blowing season hasn't begun yet...:) ) and when I used it today it felt like it was wallowing pretty badly. It improved some after the tires warmed up and "got...

Did a search, didn't see any threads less than 4 years old. Anybody bought a Landpride FDR2572 or something close to it lately? I'm considering it, but need to know what to expect price-wise. Thanks.
