    Rebuilding My Tree Damaged Kubota BX24

    I tried to get the rear fender pan from my local Kubota dealer. WAY over priced at $975.00 US. My fixed income budget says NO WAY. In addition to that, IF I were to find one cheaper, installing it NOW is way off the page. Too cold to work on it outside. Dave

    Things we wish Kubota would hear us on.

    The plastic fender pan, hood, and engine side panels just SUCK on the early BX models. Vibration breaks them up pretty fast. Just wondering if the METAL ones from the later BX models will fit the early models? And at what cost?

    BX2230 key does not tun off engine

    tomtjp, First of all you need to use the right terminology. You are NOT reaching in to use the "choke". There is no choke on a diesel engine. You are probably pulling the fuel shut off with your hand. Use the diagnostics in the manual to figure out if it is the shut off solenoid, or the shut...

    BX2350 Metal Fender

    Ollie, Thanks for the reply about the "metal" fenders. I have tried that with my local dealer. They "insist" on having the serial number before looking up parts. I would go to another dealer, BUT, the next closest one is over 1 1/2 hours away, and they will not talk over the phone UNLESS the...

    Rebuilding My Tree Damaged Kubota BX24

    Shhelby, As you replaced the REAR FENDER PAN on your BX, did Kubota indicate that MAYBE it would fit on a BX2350?? If so, what was the Kubota part number for the metal fender pan? I too, am fed up with all the plastic and would like to replace with metal. Thank you, in advance, for any and all...

    BX2350 and BX2360 fender interchangeability

    I have had the same problem with my BX2350, and have asked the same question on several other forums. Also I asked the dealer where I purchased it new, and they said "Probably not, but, MAYBE it would". I asked them if they were to order one for me and it DIDN'T fit, could I return it and get...

    Little red button

    It is the vent for the hydro unit. Just keep it clean so it doesn't get plugged. My BX2350 has one, too. Dave

    Hearing aids

    Steve67, I have no experience with that brand. I got the Resound brand from the VA. After 4 years of use I can't complain. Will be going in again in March to have the settings tweeked a bit for a little better hearing. They also gave me the Blue tooth adapters for my cell phone and TV so I can...

    BX5450 snow thrower

    bhartel63, Not trying to be critical, BUT, one of the first things to remember after engaging the PTO is to throttle up to WIDE OPEN THROTTLE. If the impeller is no spinning fast enough it will not throw snow very far. Dave

    Nice looking tractor. For me the back hoe is only a dream. Very limited income says I can not have one, even though there are times when I could REALLY use one. Dave

    Rebuilding My Tree Damaged Kubota BX24

    Shelby04861, That is what I usually do. I'm not in a super rush most of the time, PLUS, the rush shipping is WAY out of my budget. Thanks, again, for the information. I sure would like to see your pictures when done. Dave

    Rebuilding My Tree Damaged Kubota BX24

    Shelby04861, Thank you very much for the reply and information. Now all I have to do is save my nickles and dimes to afford one. Maybe, if I'm lucky, I can do it next summer. Dave

    Mower deck linkage unusual wear BX2350

    nlw898, My BX2350 doesn't show ANYTHING that bad for wear at those points. Mine is 11 years old with a 54" MMM that mows about 4 acres every week. The flat spot on those pins on mine still have the paint on them. I have no idea what to suggest. Sorry for your problem. I hope you can get it...

    Deer and a hemlock tree

    coachgrd, We had that same problem with our apple and peach trees for several years. We were told, and tried this, and it works like a charm. Take a bar of deodorant soap (we use Irish spring original) and cut it into about 6 pieces. Tie each piece to the tree with string or yarn. Put 3 to 6...

    Rebuilding My Tree Damaged Kubota BX24

    shelby04861, I'm still nosey about the mounts for that metal rear fender pan. I called Messicks and 2 other dealers in addition to my local dealer. They all said the same thing. The metal fender pan is for the BX 25 and BX 26 ONLY. All other BX models have a different set of mounts for the...

    Rebuilding My Tree Damaged Kubota BX24

    Shelby04861, Thanks for the link to the parts. It looks like the part numbers are different on the first part of the number, but the last 5 numbers are the same. I will have to inquire the dealer about that, and will probably get nowhere. Thanks, again. Dave
