    new B2601 owner with step question

    I bought the B2650 step and got it installed a fews days ago. Nice addition but probably should have come standard IMO.

    JD to Kubota ZTR

    Thanks to all who have replied. At this point I am planning to buy orange but will not be buying new. Hope to find a nice deal on a lightly used one.

    JD to Kubota ZTR

    Well the JD is the Home Depot version and it has been trouble-free for three years. One reason to part with JD is my daughter and son-in-law recently bought two acres and will need a good mower in the Spring. Thought I might help them out and get a heavier-duty mower for myself in the process...

    JD to Kubota ZTR

    Now that I own a B2601 I'm considering getting a Kubota ZTR and selling my 2yr old JD residential ZTR. Have not had a single problem with the JD. Not sure if getting the residential Kubota ztr is worth the extra dollars. I rarely see any Kubota ztr's in my area. Your thoughts are appreciated.

    Factory website pricing Vs. dealer pricing

    I just bought a B2601 with loader a few weeks ago. It's just like buying a car. Shop around, get the best price over the phone from 4-5 dealers, work the price against each other and you will probably save at least a grand or more. I bought mine across the state line only an hour from my...

    4ft or 5ft. shredder question

    I like that. I have a ZTR currently to mow my current one acre and it is 48" and a five footer would sure be nice to have to mow five acres.

    B2301 Promo Pricing until 12/31/19 - Thoughts?

    I was in the same situation you are in a few weeks ago and decided on the B2601. I probably could have gotten away with the B2301 with some negotiating, it only cost me $1000 more. Personally I was not too focused on the monthly payments or how I could save $25.00 month. If that was the case...

    4ft or 5ft. shredder question

    Just bought a new B2601 and need to buy a shredder cutter. Wanted to ask here first before buying. I will be mowing about 5acres of natural bermuda. Will the 5ft. shredder be too much for the B2601 to haul around and have strong PTO response? Dealer has the LandPride but I am open to other...

    new B2601 owner with step question

    I removed the stock bracket holding the reflector and tiny toolbox and replaced it with a new piece of heavier stock 2.5 x 2.5 angle iron. Toolbox came from Ace Hardware and I bolted it to the new angle-iron in the center. I removed the top-link bracket from the old original piece and put it...

    bolt-on hooks

    Want to add a bolt-on hook to my loader bucket. Orange would be nice but not necessary. Any recommendations from those who have done this mod. Thought it would be helpful pulling t-post in the next few weeks.

    new B2601 owner with step question

    Would like to add a step on the left side mostly to help wife get up onto tractor easier. Anyone added a step like the one that is on the L2501? BTW, my first mod was yesterday. Added a larger tool box to the rear of tractor for hammer, gloves, pliers etc. Thanks.
