    Kubota B2920 rear drive problems

    Funny the tire in question registered 65 PSI. The other one registered nothing and gurgled when I put air in it. the brain is starting to hurt

    Kubota B2920 rear drive problems

    The tires on the rear of my B2920 are 12-16.5. I have liquid ballast. The manual indicates 40psi. Sound right to folks? I need to check what the psi currently is. There is no sign that anything is amiss- is that because the tire has ballast in it and it would not show low pressure?

    Kubota B2920 rear drive problems

    Bingo sd445dan. I marked the tires-put under strain and the wheel is moving but the tire is not. Good call. I notice a small nick on the rim and some leaking of the beet juice. I'm going to hope if I take the tire off, do any repair on the wheel etc that this will be the solution.

    Kubota B2920 rear drive problems

    I have HST. NO change in the rear when lock is on or off. No unusual sounds. Probably should take a look.

    Kubota B2920 rear drive problems

    My B2920 has rear chains on Ag tires. Using with a blade and bucket to move some snow. I am noticing a dramatic decline in the ability of the rear wheels to provide any help with moving the machine. It is in "4 wheel" and I am using the differential lock. The fronts are spinning like mad and...

    Transmission Fluid substitute

    New B2920 this week. Been playing with it for about two hours. Checked the transmission fluid and it was down to the bottom nub on the stick. I hope I should not be concerned. Question- do I use the Kubota UDT/Super UDT fluid or is there a substitute that will work just as well without the...

    Mower Tailwheel question

    Just a quick one. Comparing the Landpride RCR12 series rotary mower to their RCR12 line. I notice that one difference is the tailwheel. The 12 is a 4x8 laminated tire and yoke and the 15 has a 4x16 solid rubber wheel. Any thoughts which is "better"?

    Took the plunge on a new B2920

    Just got back from placing my order for a B2920 with FEL and Landpride RCR1248 RM. Looked long and hard and this machine made the most sense for my needs and budget. Paid $17,325 with loaded rears. Even though I got a better price from Barlow's, about $300 less, I decided to use a local...

    B2930?

    Folks have recommended the B2930 as an alternative to the B2920. I cannot seem to find that machine as an option on the Kubota site. Is it that it is no longer in production for 2011?

    B2920 or L2800/L3200

    Is the position control feature in the L series worth the price bump from the B2920? Using the machine to mow and move stuff around on 11 acres with some hills. I also see the B2630 has the position control and indep PTO the others have a live PTO. Any help with the indep vs live PTO issues...

    Clutch vs Shear Pin

    New to mowing with a rear rotary mower. Is the extra expense of a clutch worth the $? Mowing about five acres of mixed terrain-some hills, some rough areas with heavy brush and rocky. Thanks
