I have had the same problem for years, every six months or so. I refuse the massive job of pulling the tank for cleaning. I installed a remote filter kit so I don't have to crawl under the tractor ever again. I modified a spare filter bowl with a tire pressure valve for the new remote kit so...

So yesterday I was moving some dirt and there was a terrible noise and as I was backing up my front drive shaft was on the ground. Upon inspection it looks like I lost the pin that holds the universal joint on the the input spline of the front axle. I went to the Kubota dealer this morning and...

I am considering using a rototiller on my BX24. Seeing as how the 3 point hitch does not have any down force I was wondering how well it would work. Does any one use a rototiller with their BX tractor?

I own a BX24 and I think there is something wrong with the glow plug operation. I want to start by saying that the tractor starts and runs fine, but I don't think the glow plugs are operating correctly. I started it yesterday at about 25 Deg.F and when I turn the key switch to the first setting...

I've had an intermittent cut out problem for a while and finally decided to ask for comments. Every once in a while, maybe 1 out of 10 times when I go from forward to reverse on my BX24 the tractor dies for a split second and comes right back. It's not just a cold weather problem as it was doing...

So I was having a problem with my BX24 and while I have solved the root problem I still don't know how the system works. The problem was that when I had the brush hog attached to the tractor, it would stall and not restart if I got off the seat. I have figured out that the PTO engagement lever...

Will the rck60-24b MMM fit a BX24 tractor? The models numbers indicate that it should but it so hard to tell with all the different combinations.

The previous owner of my tractor had installed tubes in the front tires, probably from getting many flats. So one of the front tires went flat on me a couple of months ago because the valve stem of the tube cracked so I installed a regular valve stem from the outside filled up the tire and...

Here are some pictures of the project my son and I did with the BX24, burying our trampoline. It is a 14' trampoline that required a 15' diameter hole, 31" deep. That was a lot of dirt to move. I also bought a Bro-Tek Ripper tooth and thumb. It took about two weeks but we are not officially done...

Does anyone know which parts diagram on the Messick's site would show the rubber bellows at the bottom of the FEL control handle? Mine is all chewed up and I'd like to replace it but downloading all those parts catalogs is a pain.

I don't know if it matters but I am new to tractors and hydrostatic drives. When traveling at a slow speed like when using a rear rotary mower and you don't need the torque of low range, is it better to be in low range if you can go the speed that you want or is is better to be in high gear and...

I'm having a weird problem with my BX24. After I have been using it for about 45 minutes at a continuous high RPM while brush hogging a field the RPM's will suddenly drop off. It doesn't die it just drops RPM's to about 2000. When it happens I turn off the PTO and bring the RPM's down to idle...

I decided to go ahead and change all the fluids on by BX24 today. It has 250 hours on it but since it is new to me, I like to get all the fluids fresh so I know what I've got. Engine oil and filter 15W40 and Kubota filter, HST fluid and filter Super UDT2 and Kubota filter, cleaned filter screen...

I went through and greased my FEL and BH today for the first time since I got my BX24 tractor. I had three fitting on the BH that would not take grease. Two of them were on the stabilizing arms and I was able to take them apart and clean them up and got them working again. The third one is the...

What does it means when the HST squeals on my BX24? It doesn't always do it, but when it does do it I'm probably overtaxing the hydraulics. Does the squeal indicate that something is wrong or just normal when the system is pushed past it's limits?

Now that I have my 4' rotary cutter running I need some help on not abusing it. I've been using it a little and been operating with the thought that if I can push the bush over with the bucket I can cut it up with the rotary cutter. As long as I go slow what should be my limitations on what I...

Ok, I took my first look at the three point hitch for my BX24 that I will be using on the new 4' bushhog. I am a complete newbie to tractors and I have lots of questions but three are the most important for now. First, how to I get the lift bars to go down? I'm assuming that they do not power...

I plan on using my 4x8 utility trailer behind my new to me BX24. Why would I need a 3 point hitch mount or one of the Bxpanded receiver hitch mounts when there is already a hole for a ball to be installed in the plate on the rear of the tractor. I'm sure I'm missing something as I have yet to...

Today I replaced the HST fan and shaft boots on my BX24. It was a lot of work but most people with some mechanical ability should be able to handle it. I ran into a couple of problems I thought I would share. The first problem that I had was removing the black plastic knobs for the 3 point hitch...

Can anyone tell me how the two black round knobs come off. I'm fixing my HST fan and am trying to get the fender off and those knobs don't want to budge and I don't want to break them.

Anyone following my other thread about rear cutter size knows that we've been talking about protecting the underside of our tractors and while I've already ordered a skid plate it wasn't soon enough. During the 15 or 20 minutes that I played with my new tractor I managed to break the drive shaft...

Bro-Tek has nothing for sale on Ebay which seems to be their major outlet for sales and no one there has replied to my Emails. Has anyone had any recent contact with them?

I just bought a BX24 and will buying a bush hog for it. I believe the manual calls out that it can handle a 5ft mower, does that sound right. What diameter of bushes should I expect to be able to cut down with this size mower. I've let my field go for quite a few years but it was hayed before...

I have a new to me Kubota BX24. When I put the keyswitch in the preheat position there is a constant clicking sound until I actually start the tractor and then the clicking stops. I read on another thread on this forum about the use of the preheat setting that also described a clicking sound but...
