    Kubota BX4090 cab on a 60 series BX25

    While the new BX4090 cab is officially for the 80 series tractor, would it fit on a 60 series BX25? What's important is the shape and dimensions of the floorboards and rear fenders, if they are the same it should be able to be made to work.

    Mower Deck Gauge Wheels and grease

    Anybody out there believe in not greasing specifically the mower deck gauge wheels, on the theory that the grease and dirt make a nice grinding paste. I took the wheels off the shafts for the first time on my RCK54P-23BX deck and was surprised at the wear on the steel axle shafts. I thought...

    2 spool valve recommendations for BX25 rear remotes

    What is the best valve to use for rear remotes on a BX25? I see the specs on the 60 series tractor is the max GPM is 6.3 so the valve does not to be a high GPM model I presume. What about this 8 GPM valve? 2 SPOOL 8 GPM PRINCE MB21BB5C1 DA VALVE Or this one with float ? 2 SPOOL 8 GPM PRINCE...

    Using a vacuum while removing the transmission strainer method for my BX25

    For those that use the vacuum cleaner while removing the transmission strainer on a BX. Do you hook the vacuum hose tightly to the dipstick hole? If so do you have any problem sucking up fluid into the vacuum? Or do you have to purposely leave a little break or leak in the connection to avoid...

    Oil & Fuel Adding a Spin on Racor filter to a BX25

    Here is my Racor. I made a stainless steel bracket that slides in between the front left floorboard mounting area. Just take out the one carriage bolt holding the floorboard, slide in the bracket, and but the bolt back through and tighten it. I added this 5/16 valve

    Metal mesh cage side mount type baggers on BX25

    Has anyone mounted a grass gobbler, accelerator, type metal side bagger on a BX25 or other SCUT tractor? If they work well on a walk behind they should work the same on a rider. The problem with ordering one online is the application charts to select the proper one and the mount bracket do...

    RCK54P23BX grass on top of deck and everywhere else it can lodge

    There are posts on TBN about grass buildup under the mower, adjustment and cut quality issues, but I have no problems with any of those issues. What I would like to know if there is a solution for is the grass that winds up everywhere, bunched up on top of the deck, on the operator floor mat...

    Relocate the BX25 fuel pump forward.

    I bought one of these Racor filter funnels also when I bought the filter, so the fuel will already be 1x filtered before it gets to the onboard filter. I haven't tried it yet. I bought the smallest one it is just slightly larger than the fuel tank opening so it won't fall in...

    Relocate the BX25 fuel pump forward.

    Update: filter installed and left pump in place. Well I spent enough time looking at it and finally came up with a plan and mounted my filter. I decided on mounting it behind the loader bracket instead of in front of it. I had turned the wheel all the way to the left and then jacked up the left...

    Relocate the BX25 fuel pump forward.

    I ordered this little 5/16" in line shut off valve. Even if I leave everything as is, I will add this before the first filter.

    Relocate the BX25 fuel pump forward.

    I know that several people have done a nice job installing a better filter for the first fuel filter that is prior to the electric pump. And most route the fuel line forward to the new filter and then back again to the fuel pump left in its stock position under the tractor. But has anyone...

    New Curtis Cab 70 series BX25 , will it fit 60 series BX25?

    I have a 2008 BX25. I see that Curtis has a new part number cab for 70 series BX tractors, the steel door cab part number is 1KBX70AS. I like the design of it much better than the 1KBX25AS that they have had offered for the BX25, specifically the hard removable rear panel and the larger...

    Rear snow blower rides up on wet snow, add weights?

    Most of the time my Kubota snow front blade is all need for snow here in NJ on my BX25. I also have Martin Meteor rear blower I rarely use. This last thick wet snow was too much for the blade, the big wet piles it would start to make it could not move once it made them. So I out the blower...
