    Mowing  Mulching kit for RCK54-23BX deck

    After many years of abuse, the unprotected baffle plate at the discharge side has finally become so mangled that I can't hammer it back in place. Unfortunately I can't seem to find a mulching kit to replace mine. Does anyone know the part number of the Kubota kit that will fit my deck? Or an...

    BX24 Instrument Cluster Replacement

    I had a few problems with my BX24 including fuel gauge not reflecting actual level. Service said that they needed to replace the instrument cluster. Just got it back, so not only is my original stalling problem not resolved, I'm not sure that they replaced the instrument cluster. One key...

    uhaul for BX24

    Anyone rent a uhaul trailer to tote their BX24? I don't have the need to buy a trailer, but would like to take my tractor to my cabin to do some yard work, once in a while. About 150 mi trip. Any suggestions? Car carrier perhaps? I live in MA.

    bx24 grease zerk size(s)?

    I did a search and got some threads with some opinions, but no definitive answers. Can someone provide the actual size(s) of all zerks installed on a BX24? I have one on my FEL I need to replace, and would like to get a set to have on hand in case any others become faulty.

    bx24 bent bucket curl piston

    I was pulling a big stump and must have caught the bucket under a couple of roots I was trying to scrape the dirt off of. I noticed I couldnt uncurl the bucket all the way. I checked it out and sure enough I bent the piston shaft for the bucket curl. Tractor is just about 2 years old. Any...

    Illegal to use #2 Heating Oil in Machinery in MA

    Just got off the phone with my Oil dealer. He says that recent laws (at least in MA) prohibit using anything other than Low Sulphur on-road diesel in machinery. I was planning on setting up an aux. 30 gal tank for the fill up when I get my oil delivered, but now I guess I'm back to saving...

    I feel... I don't know... Naked?

    Had my BX24 picked up yesterday to have the fender replaced and all of the updates installed. When I got home last night my shop felt so empty. Can't wait to get her back.

    Finally got rid of the cardboard box that came with my BX24

    I've had my 24 for over a year, and yesterday finally opened the 3-pt hitch box just to try it out. The directions were actually easy to follow and now I'm dying to buy/rent/use any 3 pt attachment. The only thing that I was confused with was the top link. I assume that the metal plate thing...

    service bulletins

    Any reason that Kubota published service bulletins can not be posted on this board? If it is possible, I would suggest a "sticky" post for each model containing the list of all published service bulletins so that all of us could be made aware of their existance. It could be helpful for...

    bent bx24 fel "arm"

    When mounting my FEL last time I caught the front of the bucket against a pallet on the floor and pushed the right "arm" out of line. Now when I try to mount the FEL I have to push the right side in with my foot a bit to get it to line up when the left side is over the bracket. Anyone know...

    Removing a Lake...

    What's the verdict on leaving the MMM on a BX24 with the BH on?

    I know this was discussed before, but thought I would bring it up again. As noted, the manual says to remove MMM before using BH. Anyone continuously keep them both on? I don't mind removing the BH for mowing, but I would love to leave the MMM on when using the BH as it is a bit of work to...

    No problem with my BX24

    Just want to reassure lurkers thinking about getting a BX24 that are getting scared by issues posted. When reading these forums be sure to keep in mind that usually only people with problems post messages, and people with no problems usually don't. I've put about 40 hours on my 24 and am...
