So for a good while I never really liked connecting up or disconnecting the third function lines to my grapple due to the hydraulic pressure contained in the lines of the implement. For me I use a grapple on my tractor quite a bit. After experimenting around I found the best thing that worked...

So I have two tractors, a B2650 and a Bx2380. Both are HST and are used regularly in and out of 4 wheel drive. I have always had a hard time getting the BX out of 4x4 mode until yesterday. Never with the B2650. Yesterday, I was really struggling getting the BX out of 4x4. Not sure why this...

So I have a wicked root rake grapple from EA and when I’m not using it, I’m not sure the best way to store it is. Right now, I have it lying face down on the ground in a pole barn. I have set it leaning up against trees and also against a hillside in the past. The issue I have with leaning it...

I know I need to lose a little weight, but come on Kubota, maybe you should beef these steps up? Its a friggin’ tractor. . The stamped sheet metal step is junk IMO. I think I’m gonna just fabricate a new one out of 1/4 or even 1/8 inch plate steel. The steel of the step looks to be thinner...

Just curious if anyone has a similar issue. If I raise the deck all the way up on my Bx2380, it’ll bang against the tractor frame when driving over what I consider minor bumps in the road. No pun intended. If I lower the deck a little, the banging noise still occurs but it’s less loud. I have...

Hi All, This week I had my second purchased new Kubota tractor delivered this week. A Bx2380. So far so good other than I have noticed a large start and stop bang noise. I'd like to know if anyone has noticed any loud bang noise on starting and stopping a Bx? I suspect the torque on the...

Hey everyone. I had some hydraulic work done recently on my B2650 and since I got it back the idle speed sticks too high after being at high idle speed. It self corrects itself after a few minutes or after I reduce the loader load by setting it to float. If I throttle her up to 2000 rpm or so...

So most of you all know that the FRIGGIN' PLASTIC bumpers JD puts on lawn tractors is about as lame of a bumper as they get. After breaking several bumpers on my 20 year old Lx277, I finally went ahead and made a custom one that has worked out great. I made it such that the hood can be opened...

I have a set of pallet forks I've had for a year and one of the levers on one of the flip up clips that locks the forks into a gap slot popped off. Not sure how it happened. I just noticed it one day. It now will not lock into any of the slots. Just wondering if anyone has had the same issue and...

Picked up a set of light duty (2200lb) 42inch pallet forks from Everything Attachments. Here's the link to the pallet forks: Small Compact Tractor and Mini Skid Steer Pallet ForksTheir facility is only an hour from where I live so I drove over their and they loaded me up. These forks weigh only...

Added a couple TS LED work lights Navigator 4 in. Round Heavy-Duty LED Utility Light | TractorSupply to the ROPS on my B2650. I fabricated a steel bracket / clamp for the lights so no drilling into the ROPS was required. The spacing between the center of the bolt holes was exactly 1.75 inches...

A few months back I had a third function remote value and switch installed on my B2650 tractor and loader. I have yet to use it. A couple weeks back the switch fell apart. It's located ont he loader control stick. The switch fell apart without ANY use. I hav yet to even put quick disconnect...

So I picked up a used Mackissic PTO chipper on CL from a local farmer and ran it last week a few times. The chipper knives were pretty dull and it was a struggle to chip anything larger than about 2 inches. I orderd new knives and it ran much better after I installed them per the install...

I got an hydraulic leak when I curl the bucket. It happened after I was diggin up some soil. Here's a video of the leak. Take a look. Any suggestions? I have an email into the dealer. I'm wondering what he's gonna suggest...

Hey Everyone. I recently had a 3rd function remote added to my B2650. I want to replace the capped ends of the lines at the bracket the dealer put on with a couple QA couplers in place of the caps. The dealer (or kit) put/had female to female nipple/adapter at the bracket on each line that...

I notice I'm getting quite a bit of exhaust residue on the left side FEL hydraulic lines on my B 2650. I have about 50 hours on the tractor. The exhaust pipe is about 13 inches to the lines in a direct shot. I can't imagine this is good from a design perspective. The lines will definitely dry...

Trailering my B2650 Tractor and Reccomended Tie-Downs Just picked up a freshly built tandem 7000lb GVWR landscape trailer at the factory just south of us in Lexington, NC (Kaufman Trailers). I was wondering about tie-down chains / straps to use when transporting a compact tractor like the B2650...

After having my new B2650 a little more than a week, I realized I should have ordered the 3rd function Aux Hydraulics kit for it when I bought it. Everything attachments sells a kit. 3rd function auxilliary hydraulic kits for all brands of tractors and loaders! purchase online, free shipping...

Curious on what the going cost for the 50hr service on my new Kubota will be at the Dealer here in Greensboro? I may have them do it this one time. They want $350 to just ballast the rear tires so I shudder to ask what he may want for the 50 hour service. Replacing the Hydraulics, engine oil...

I see bucket hooks welded on many tractors. Why does Kubota say don't lift anything with your loader except aggregate et-al? It's explicit in the manual. ???

Bent the right telescopic stabilizer today on my 3pt hitch. Did not notice it until I was almost done for the day. I was ripping up some roots and leveling a road that runs the back of our property. I tilted the box blade to the left most of the day. This allowed me to cut into the high side...
