Question for everyone. When do you know that your belt needs replacing? I replaced the belt tensioner arm and put new blades on. The deck is still vibrating a bit and the other pulleys are all good. Could a bad belt cause the deck to shake a bit? It's like I have something out of balance...

The belt looks fine. You can see in the pic where it's rubbing. Not sure how to tell if the bushing is bad.

Finally, have a problem with my Kubota deck. Its been pretty flawless since I bought it. The issue I have now is that the belt seems to have more slap than normal and the deck is slightly shaking enough to make you feel it in the seat of your pants. Could bad blades be the cause of this...

Has anyone found a good alternative to the OEM deck wheels. Looked at Stens but they dont sell the bolts with the wheels.

Has anyone used the Fram G2 fuel filter on their BX2230? I need to replace my fuel filters and was wondering if they were a good fit with the bracket in the engine bay.

Well the kid has a car now and I need to move the BX out of the garage. She has been under cover since I bought her. I use the BX with a rear blade and FEL for snow duty so I plan to put her at the end of the drive. If she has to be outside, should I and how should I cover her with a tarp...

Looking for some advice on the BX2750 blower for the BX2230. I'd like to step up to a blower but not sure if its possible to put a front one on the tractor. I have a Woods FEL and BH on the tractor.

Looking for some advice on what a very clean aerator is worth these days. I have a Midwest AE20-48 that I just dont use and plan to sell it. Big question is, what is it actually worth.

I have a Midwest AE20-48 that I've only used a few times. Just too much for me to store at this point. It's been stored inside its whole life and looks like it did when I picked it up. Looking to sell it but not sure what it's worth since Midwest is no longer making equipment from what I can...

I have an RCK 60B that has started to make sporadic noises that sound like a harmonic vibration. It stops quickly and when it lasts longer just turning the deck on and off seems to stop it. Could this be an out of balance blade or could the belt be loose. I'm not sure what the adjustments are...

The questions is, should you remove a few inches of snow from the drive before an ice storm hits or leave it as a base so you can remove the ice easier.

What hp is your tractor, I have a 23hp BX but I think that beast might be too much for me also.

I just did the 300 hour on the BX and didn't have the time to run out to the local Kubota dealer so I hit tractor supply for some Mystik JT5. Seemed like good stuff but I'm not thrilled with the results. I have more hydro whine that before and the hyrdo is just not as smooth. Has anyone else...

THe carry all is $100 but I dont plan to sell it unless the sprayer sells since I carry the sprayer on the carry all.

Still have it. Sold it but guy never showed up. Send me an email address in PM so I can send some pics to you. Been in garage on a shelf.
