I made a set of bolt on teeth for the bucket of my sub compact tractors that I've dug out quite a few big stones in my yard etc; You get the teeth down under the rock and just sort of curl the bucket and more or less roll tthe rocks out. I no longer have the Massey's so going to make them fit...

Thanks for all the input,from everyone. This is exactly what I was wanting to hear.It'll be easier for me now to just use the bypass hose fitting's.:p

I saw your post before and had thought about doing what you did. However I was at my dealer the other day and mentioned to him what I wanted to do with my heater.He called one of his service guys in and had me talk to him.I asked him about connecting my heater to the bypass and ,The first...

Where have[the one's with cab's and heater's] tied into the motor on there BX tractors. On my D 902 engine on my BX 2370-1 there is a 3/8" NPT plug just under the thermostat that I can remove and put a fitting in to feed the heater. Now the return from the heater would go where ?? All I can...

I always have stuff stored in the shed,which is locked up.Keys are always removed.If and when we go away for a few days.Critical componets are disconnected also I'll park one of my bigger vehicles in front of the big door which is locked up. So now they'll have to drag it out of the way before...

Never had a problem with keeping the glass clear. { I had one that was all glass [lexan] on the Massey that I just sold} One fan and heat it was always clear. I live across the big lake west of you ?? were the Icelander's are.:p [I'am not one of them] LOL.

Thanks. Made in my small work shop with basic tools welder,angle grinder,hacksaw,jigsaw, pipe bending jig with a jig for bending sq tubing, lots of time and patience, I made a custom made heater that I installed behind the seat.I made it so that it's able to fit in that tight area.This way the...

This is the finished cab with the lexan for the side and small windows and the laminate safety glass for the front and rear windows.The only place where I didn't use rubber window moulding was in the 3pth area.I had pre drilled holes in the steel and when I was ready to install the lexan all I...

Painted the cab Kubota orange I wasn't happy with the paint that I used.It was very hot and even in the shade the paint wanted to orange peel and drag when I was painting [by brush] I used a brush simply because it's mostly narrow edges plus you get heavier coats.I ended up sanding some places...

Before painting the cab I installed it onto the tractor to make sure that everything fit and worked like it's supposed to.

I made the roof out of 3/8" plywood ,added some ribs into it too keep it from being to flimsy in the middle. Also added some triple layered floor underlament to the bottom of the roof.I pre drilled and pre fit the roof before I even painted the cab or the roof. Before installing the roof I laid...

I cut and fit all of the weather striping and window and door rubbers etc: and cut and made the seal from the cab to the tractor. I used some baler belting that I screwed to the cab frame and used automotive door weather striping to seal it against the tractor. One thing to remeber is that when...

The doors are a pain to make.[It's easier to make windows] LOL .They had lots of bends and angles and had to be cut and fit together just right in order for them to close and seal up when closed. { as you can tell I hate making doors} I used 3/4" sq tubing for the frame and added in 3/4" & 1"...

I used 3/4" sq tubing for the main frame of the front and rear windows.I then used 1" flat to beable to mount the window glass to.Using the same method as what I did to make the corners etc: The top of the windows I used a 3" flat piece so that I could have a place to install a wiper. I made...

I welded in some 1/2" and 3/4" flat strapping to beable to install my windows and weather striping.To make the corners I welded in some 3" x 3" flat metal and used a coffee can to get the proper curve.I just used a jigsaw with a metal blade to cut the curves and a angle grinder to finish them...

I made the front of the cab with the same taper from top to bottom as what the back has.The top of the cab is 3" narrower then the bottom. I then made the upper sides of the cab to match the lower sides.I made the bend inwards near the back of the cab so that when I make the doors the hinges...

I didn't mention it but the main frame is made out of 1x1 sq tubing. I made the lower sides so that they would follow the contour of the fenders and floor boards.The sides also have a bit of a bend near the fuel tank cap area so that they get narrower towards the back of the tractor. You can...

Built a easy removable cab for my BX. I like to have the cab off for summer grass cutting etc; The thing about this cab is that when I made it I have the option of leaving it on for the summer.Both doors are removeable and both the front and rear windows open to allow max air flow.The first...

I noticed that on mine as well. I just assumed thats what they were for. When I was at the Dealer looking at some of the other[ brand] new tractors they all had that o-ring on the cylinders.Guess using o-rings are easier then masking tape.

Just joined,I've been lurking for a bit and decided to join so I could post and reply. Not new to tractors been making things & fixing things & repairing etc; for many years. Hopefully I'll beable to get some ideas and advice plus help others as well.
