    Loader  broken FEL arm to bucket attachment pin

    What's that pin called? it attaches the FEL side arm to the bucket. Mine is about 3/4" diameter & 4&1/2" long. Broke one today moving HEAVY chunks of logs to the splitter. Can't find any listing anywhere so I assume I'm not calling it by it's proper name. Just started my firewood processing and...

    Power steering hose leaking...

    Just found a leak last night from the left front almost over the axle on my BX1860. Just moved about 24 yards of wood chips and have about 24 more yards to go. I only have 105 hrs, seems a little early for a hose to go. I ordered both hoses that are routed from the steering wheel to the front...

    Quick Hitches  HF quick hitch question

    Considering Harbor Freight Quick Hitch. With the 25% off coupon I can afford the cost. I have a 2012 Kubota BX1860, but I think all BX models have the same size 3ph - right?? So far I only have one 3ph attachment - KK 4' box blade and it's a wrestling match getting it on and off the 3ph. If...

    Thoughts on hydraulic top link..

    I know nothing about them, but it's quite a chore continually adjusting the top link manually. I have a BX1860 and use a fixed box blade. How would I install a hyd top link and would I need to add another hyd fitting to hook it to? Would I need to drain the entire HST, more hoses? What's a good...

    HDMI Splitter

    Not sure this is the right forum for this, if this needs to be moved to a different forum I'm sure a moderator will catch it, but here goes anyway. This is for the new tech gurus, or anyone with previous experience, out there; I only have 2 HDMI cable inputs, which are already being used by...

    Box Scraper  What box blade to consider??

    I have a BX1860 SCUT. All the paperwork says it's a category 1 3ph. I've been told it can't handle a 5' BB only a 4' BB. I've seen a more affordable new 4' at TSC with great reviews but it's Cat 0, will it work, do I need to beef up the connection points? I plan to use it for maintaining my 225'...

    My older Ryobe and Craftsman hand-held gas leaf blowers died within hours of eachother (of coarse right as I'm starting to get the leaves up), have been nursing them both for a long time and I just want to get a new one.

    Blade??

    Looking for a cheap, used, practice (my 1st) 3ph scraper blade for my BX1860. Will only occasionally use mostly for dirt and gravel. I guess a 5' or 6' would work, but what should I look for and how much should I expect to pay? Budget is my main concern. Thanks.

    Is this show for real??

    Sat down to watch a little TV tonight and as I was flipping I came across Amish Mafia. Not sure if I liked it or not, but like a train wreck, I couldn't turn away. Don't know what that has to do with religion of any kind, but surely different and strange.

    Covered by warranty?

    Just bought in Nov 2012 and have less than 20 hrs. and only shifted into 4x4 just to try it. Since, I hear, most front axles are low on oil from the factory, especially on BX and B models. If a dealer were to check and top off the fluid, would it be covered by Kubota or would the owner be...

    a good place to get angle steel??

    Anybody know of a good place, near me in NOVA, to buy angle steel? I need to stiffen up the ramp/gate of my trailer. I've always gotten small pieces from my local hardware, but I need longer and more this time, besides I'm sure a supplier would be cheaper. Here's a not so good pic of the gate...

    Snow  take off toothbar??

    Pretty new here and very new to owning a tractor. Hadn't gotten any snow yet but am anticipating at least a few good snows this season. I had a toothbar installed on my FEL when I bought, but I guess for moving snow off my gravel driveway, and any work I hope to get moving snow off poured or...

    3PH Storage Box

    Hey all. I've seen lots of styles of storage boxes attached to carry all frames :thumbsup:. All I want to carry is a couple extra fuel cans and a cold drink cooler - nothing heavy. Can I just build a wood box to attach directly to the 3PH, with no welding or big expense involved :confused...
