I had a steel canopy on my previous BX25. The BX25 is too tall for a standard 7' garage door. The steel canopy was too hard to remove when I wanted to garage my tractor. I bought a BX23S and a Tuff Top tractor canopy to go with it. It is a light thermoplastic material (metal frame) and the...

My BX23S has a fluid leak at the coupler where the front loader valves connect. I cleaned it very well so I can see where the leak is coming from. It look like it leaks from the connection because there is a puddle on top of the lower block (the lower block has the nut on the 1st picture)...

I started it a few times and moved it out so I can work in the garage. I usually let the loader down after turning it off. Are you saying I should move the stick around so it depressurizes? I used to have a BX25 that would sit for months and I'm not sure I moved the sticks after turning it...

Do any Kubota BX23S Owners have this? I bought a new BX23S last fall in October. I haven't used it yet and it's been sitting in my garage. Today, I was scoping it out because I am getting ready to do some projects. I noticed a couple of issues: 1. Underneath the operator platform on each...

Greetings All, I was deciding between an LS MT125 and this Kubota BX23S. I bought the Kubota BX23S on Monday and it was delivered today. There wasn't much sleep loss here. I ordered it with a canopy and work lights but decided to just get them elsewhere so I did not have to wait up to 2...

Greetings Fellow Tractor Folks, You are all awesome! I am a member of other forums i.e. Chevy, Ford, RV etc. but TractorByNet is hands down the best! It is the most informative, helpful and complete forum I've ever visited. It covers the whole gamut and then some! It's been about three...

A few months ago I noticed my BX 25 (108+ hours) tachometer/hour meter was all black. It's digital. After it warms up the black LED comes back but in the cold it does not. It's all black, the same black that lights up the numbers. Any ideas? Anyone else experience this problem? I searched...

I have a BX 25. I used it only at my property. I have been looking around for a used truck so I can have the ability transport my tractor. I have a trailer I can borrow for the time being. I believe it's 12 feet long/dual axle with hydraulic brakes (maybe 16'long). I remember 1500 lb gross...

I am getting ready to move a lot of dirt. I was considering investing in a BXpanded Bucket Expander. I've searched the threads here and have not seen any threads with user/owner input. My questions are: 1. Does any here own one and if so can you give my feedback on it? 2. Have you heard...

I have a Kubota BX 25 I use personally around my property. I am doing a landscape design for a client and he asked me if I can move the dirt he will have to order. It will be delivered to his front yard and have to be hauled to his back yard. It's about an average 170 feet travel distance...

I've got 71 hours on it and it less than 2 months old. I discovered an oil leak after seeing a wet spot where I parked my tractor. I can't really tell where the source is but I have pictures of the area it might be coming from. I seems to be the area behind or below the battery. I'm not...

The picture is my new tractor (after 50 hour of use and the 50 hour service) with 2 tool boxes (holders) I made. The design is based on previous posts that I saw on here. I first built the 4" diameter pvc with two end caps toolbox which I mounted through the existing hole on the left FEL...

I am doing the 50 hour on my new BX 25 tractor I got last month. Book says change oil filter and oil, nothing about the tranny and hydrolics at 50 hrs. Does anyone have a cross reference number for the BX25 oil filter? also since I don't have my book and need to get my stuff, what kind of...

I recently purchased a BX25 which I received last Thursday. Great little machine! I worked it Thursday, Friday and Saturday. At about 11 hours I refueled. There must have been a gallon left because I put in a little less than 5 gallon to fill it up. Shortly after refueling the engine...
