    Turning the pumps up!

    From another site- both tractors had the hydraulics turned up. I know no other details, so it's no use asking. I'm just posting them to contemplate the end results.

    Complelty lost looking for hitch components

    He does ship. I have friends with an L2350- I can get photos and measurements of their 3 point (it's all original, other than telescoping stabilizers that I made for it), if needed.

    Complelty lost looking for hitch components

    B series parts aren't correct. You need L series stuff- longer lift arms, longer/heavier stabilizers and side links, etc. Contact Daryl Grammer- he's a member here, and he has a Kubota salvage yard in Alabama. mossycreekoutdoors.comMossy Creek Outdoors - Largest Kubota B and BX Salvage Yard ...

    Does this exist - BX Hydro Filter "Armor"

    It wouldn't be hard to find a local fabricator who could make one.

    L3901 Tractor runs 5 minutes then stalls

    Check your fuel tank for debris in it. I've seen it more than once- bacteria that forms, then coagulates into a glob. It floats around, and gets sucked to the fuel inlet. When it does, it restricts or stops fuel flow. Tractor shuts off, vacuum ceases, and it floats around again. Start it up, it...

    Stabilizer on my L4802

    Correct- the pins do not have to be symmetrically placed. There are variations that may not enable that, and symmetry does not affect performance. As long as your implement is in the position that you want, pin the stabilizers and go for it.

    First Black Smoke, then overheating and then a loud "thump" from the engine. What happened??

    Welcome to the forum. You may get some suggestions, but what you really need is someone mechanically inclined to look at it in person. Coolant level, contaminant in the oil, pull injectors and see if the cylinders are hydro locked, etc. Without lots of detailed information, you'll get stabs in...

    Predator Motors

    They're probably like Holzforma saws. The patents have expired, so they can legally copy them.

    Looking for three point hitch parts

    Welcome to the forum! Check with Daryl Grammer at Kubota Salvage. If he doesn't have one, a machine shop could make it.

    What is Messick's Smoking

    Remember the commercial "You never get a second chance to make a first impression"? Shipping is a significant determiner today. It would be in Messicks best interest to get a handle on this- I utilize their extensive parts diagrams, but I order very little from them. Between my local dealer and...

    How to start diagnosing crank-no-start on a kubota common rail diesel

    I know that on automobiles, if the voltage drops below 11.2 or something like that while starting, it will affect the electronics.

    How to start diagnosing crank-no-start on a kubota common rail diesel

    You need to test the battery. What it shows with no load isn't the whole story. If the battery is bad and drops too much when starting, the voltage isn't high enough for the electronics to function. That would be the first place I would look.

    I was just given this BX2200 and I have no idea

    It should be easy to find a friend or family member who are more familiar with tractors and who can help you explore and learn. You would make more ground with in person help.

    Increasing L6060 loader and BH lift capacity

    The question would be is how long can they function at such higher capacities, without significant wear and tear? There may be a cost for such ambitious capabilities.

    Increasing L6060 loader and BH lift capacity

    My thought, for what it's worth- it's how I process this consideration. There are more factors than just strength/lifting capacity. The more weight, the more stress. I am interested in both capability and longevity. I'd rather pace myself, and work within the limits of my machine, while at the...

    Pinhole leak in metal hydraulic line

    JB Weld works good at what it's designed for, but you are expecting it to contain high pressure by bonding to the exit of the oil. You don't have much to lose by trying, but keep your expectations low. If it were mine, I'd bite the bullet and buy the new line. Fix it once, right, and don't look...

    Kubota BX2230 engine sound, is it normal?

    Diesel has cetane ratings.

    Kubota BX2230 engine sound, is it normal?

    Welcome to the forum! Before proceeding, I would double check all of the assorted parts in the engine bay. It looks like the air filter housing is moving excessively, for instance. Any loose parts can contribute noise, so I would eliminate that before isolating the engine as the source.
