    How to know what I need for the hose adapter?

    I picked up a grapple this past week, and the fittings on the hose ends don't fit my tractor. I removed the end from the hose and measured the threaded end and it measures 1/2" across and has an O ring at the bottom. The quick disconnects that I have used a 1/4" NPT male thread. Therefore I...

    This thread is going to remind you of the things that you see at your favorite Walmart except with BX tractors. I found these pictures on various Facebook BX groups.

    Look what followed me home! Too Big?

    Very early Wednesday morning I found a Kubota Snow Blade listed on Facebook Marketplace, so I clicked on the picture and said to myself. "This will replace the one that you sold last winter thinking that you would never have another need for it." It was priced right, and the description was...

    Obsolete Kubota Parts

    I came across this website today while looking for something else. You will need to know your part number since they don't have any look-up capabilities. They are not associated in any way with Kubota Corporation. https://www.kubotapartsamerica.com/

    Wanted: Hydraulic Pressure Test Gauge

    Somehow I managed to lose not one but 2 of these gauges. The first one I loaned to someone, but that was about 15 years ago and it never came back. I bought another this past winter, and when I went to use it today, I couldn't find it. I searched all 3 garages to no avail but I did find some...

    BX23S Loader Valve Leaking

    My loader valve has started leaking, and I read all the rest of the sad tales of woe where people have swapped the Kubota system for individual quick connects, etc. I decided to call my selling dealer to see what the present status of the problem resolution was. I was first informed that my...

    LandPride Landscape Rake with wheels

    Put new bushing into the wheels on my LandPride landscape rake only to find that the new bushings are no better than the ones that I took out. The wheel is too tight to spin even after I greased it. It is an LR1660 that I purchased used at a great price. The wheels were not installed on the...

    BX23S Mower Deck Information needed

    I have been looking for a 60" mower deck for my BX23S, and haven't found anything locally. How far backward-looking decks will fit the BX23S? Would a deck from a BX22 (2003 vintage) fit a BX23S (2019 vintage) or anything in between? thanks

    LR1660 Rake with QH05 problems

    I gave up on the idea of adapting my old Landscape rake to my Land Pride quick hitch QH05, so I searched Facebook Marketplace and found a Land Pride LR1660 rake with a new never-mounted wheel kit for very little money compared to the cost of a new set at the Kubota dealer. The deal was so good...

    Adapting old implements to a Quick Hitch

    This afternoon I dug out my old York rake only to find that it wouldn't fit onto my new Kubota QH5 hitch. I looked it over and realized that I could adapt it if I could find the dimensions that present-day quick hitches are manufactured to. I also have an older 5' Landpride York rake, and on...

    It is tick season.

    I am already seeing ticks coming to life in Northeast CT. Unfortunately, we are at the epicenter of Lyme ticks. I did learn something today while watching a news brief about ticks in Canada, the tick needs to be on you for 24 hours before it can complete the transmission of the disease...

    BX23S pricing

    Periodically I do a "build" on the Kubota website to see what it will cost to replace my BX23S with the cab and all the accessory implements that I have purchased along the way. It is now $54219 plus sales tax and the cost to load the tires! I do this to keep the insurance valuation current...
