I have a question,, after darn near killing my self slipping on the floor of my tractor I figure there has got to be some thing better to have,,That rubber matting is slicker than deer guts on a brass door nob when they get a little snow on them. Has anybody else found this to be a problem and what if anything have you replaces that stuff with?
Peace

You could try traction tape on the cheap or go to the auto parts store and but a gallon of roll on bedliner coating. Its similar to a spray on truck bed liner like what LineX makes just in a do it yourself version. It ususal has some grit to it when it dry's.

Kinda why I'm glad I have an older model that has the old school steel floor with those raised metal divots. I dare say if I ever get the luxury of owning a new Kubota I'd probably take the floor off and make a pair of the old school steel floorboards.

That would be one of the few negatives I have with my BX2660:(. That mat is very slippery:eek:.

I like the idea of the tape;). I think there is a trip to Lowe's in my future this weekend:D.
