    BX ROPS question

    Anyone know if Kubota sells just the top part of the ROPS? Haven’t checked yet. Would like to get one, then take it to a machine shop to shorten it. Don’t want to do this on mine in the event I sell my tractor if I upgrade. Would make life a little easier getting into my garage. Just need about...

    Snow blower question

    Never owned one for the tractor. Found a good deal on a 3 point snow blower. My question is, are there some king of shoes to lift it so I don’t pick up gravel in my driveway? Or is there an adjustment to leave 1/2 inch on the ground? When I had my walk behind snow blower, could adjust the bottom...

    Broke throttle bar

    What kind of crap it Kubota using for parts. This just broke on me lowering the throttle when I was parking in the garage. Doesn't look to bad to replace provided where it goes isn't under any pressure. Just remove the 2 nuts and replace. Its only 3 years old. Anyone else have this happen?

    BX owners, chime in

    How much ballast are you using? I have enough weights now for 300 lbs so now I can get rid of the box. The box stuck out to much for my liking. Just wondering when is to much ballast. Thanks.

    Attachments that use PTO

    Found a used tiller for a good price. It’s not a Kubota. Are the connections to the PTO universal? How do you find out the length of the shaft required to fit my BX? Thanks

Decided to do it myself and purchased both engine filter and oil and...

    Kubota L3301HST

    Found this one on CL for $23000 with 402 hours. Seems kind of cheap. Maybe something wrong with it. Comes with cab, loader and 3 point. Is this a descent tractor or one of Kubotas problem child’s? https://stcloud.craigslist.org/grq/d/villard-kubota-l3301hst-compact-tractor/7854372269.html

    Cab for BX 1880

    On the hunt for some kind of cab that I won’t have to donate a kidney for it. Husqvarna cab was suggested last year for around $700. Not sure if a hard top would be needed. But would want one that’s not as high as my ROPS so I can get into the garage. Appreciate any suggestions. Thanks.

    How often do you change your air filter?

    Have been blowing mine out after every use. On my 3rd year. Is this a bad idea to go this long without a new one?

    Landscape Rake wheels

    Anyone know of a less expensive set than what I have found? Last year was the same expensive ones as this year. Titan seems to be the cheapest. Dam expensive though. https://palletforks.com/products/pair-of-landscape-rake-wheels

    Replacing mower blades - 1880

    Have a 46 inch deck. Have read about some of the other blades are better than factory blades. Are the costs higher too? Have had no issue with my factory blades but figured I would check before I mount my deck for mowing season. Appreciate any recommendations.

    BX 1880 owners, chime in

    Currently have my larger R4 tires on for winter duties. I like the lift I get from then vs the turf tires. Have a 54 inch deck. I know I won’t be able to leave the tires on due to those little wheels rubbing. Anyone with a 1880 put a 60 inch deck on that clears the larger wheels? Could try spacers.
