    Help me price my mint Kubota RTV1100

    I've got to sell my orange 2009 Kubota RTV1100 which has been barned and used sparingly (26 hours!) and runs like a clock. It's in mint condition, AM radio, front grill, towing hitch, rear cage and aftermarket front winch. Can't remember what I paid exactly. Any thoughts are appreciated.

    Silly ag tire question

    I just put a set of ag tires on my agco 2027 (27hp diesel subcompact) which I plan to use for plowing this year. Two questions: how bad do again tear up a hilly lawn when mowing? And, which way is the "v" pattern on the tire tread supposed to point? Forward or rearward?

    Sprayer  I need help purchasing a sprayer....

    This year, we're branching out and starting up several new 20x40' garden beds. We're doing corn, squash, and much more on our 5 acre property. Two of the beds are quite far from the house (hose won't reach without multiple connections/leaks) so my idea is to buy a sprayer and tow it along with...

    I've had a Kubota BX 24 for 6 years and have a decent amount of attachments/implements (box scraper, brush hog, rake, some others) but now have taken delivery on a 3 point tiller (Landpride RTA 10-42). It has 42inch width and a slip clutch. I plan on using it on about 1600 sq. ft. vegetable...

    I'd like to hear opinions/experiences on the best high-wheel, push lawn mowers out there. I mow most of my property with a tractor but have several hilly and irregular areas where a push mower is just easier and safer no matter what else I try. I haven't bought a push mower for some time and...

    Spreader  PTO Spreader for subcompact tractors?

    I currently pull a 130lb capacity "tow-behind" spreader with Kubota bx24 but would like to know if a PTO spreader would make my life easier. Are there pto spreaders made specifically for subcompacts? Can you control the width of the spread well? Are there other issues I should be thinking...

    BX24 with Ags?

    Does anyone know why the BX24 is not available with R1 tires? I thought I've read that it was a compatibility issue with the MMM. What if I never put on a MMM? Would love to get Ags on if possible.

    Don't want to start an debate but....

    ...I've been told and read two different opinions on whether you should fill the front tires on a 4WD sub compact tractor. I know they're small and you won't get that much added weight but when the bucket's empty and I'm on uneven terrain, I'm looking for all the help I can. Some say that it...

    ....the plastic cover on my BX24's 12-volt outlet snapped off at the hinge (it was freezing cold out). I'm wondering what my alternatives are. Is there a replacement cap? Have others crafted a homegrown solution. I usually don't park my rig outside overnight or in the inclement weather but...

    Why can't this be done to a BX24?

    The other day, I was removing the LA240 bucket from my BX24's FEL (I'm having some welding done and I thought it would be easier to transport the bucket as opposed to the whole tractor or FEL). While removing the bucket, I noticed that there are pins that, possibly could be switched to quick...

    Front-End Loader  FEL forks for subcompacts

    I have looked at Paynes and other brands of clamp on forks for subcompacts and I'm just not satisfied with the shifting issue that is described. BXpanded.com is a website that sells aftermarked forks that hook around the top lip of the FEL on the BX models (some handy posters have fabricated...

    Front forks on a BX24

    My goal is to use front forks on my BX24 for hauling relatively light stuff around the property (attachments, brush, pallets). 200--300 pounds capacity will do fine. I'm looking at those advertised on BXpanded but I'm afraid the after market changes my dealer made to the upper edge of the...

    live continuous PTO?

    In looking at upgrading my BX24 to a B3030, B26 or L3400, I'm confused by the Live-continuous rear PTO with overrunning clutch that is listed in the L3400 specks. Can anyone explain how that is different that the BX24 rear PTO which I engage with a clutch while the tractor is moving or...

    b26 specs

    Can anyone confirm the weight of a b26 without the hoe attached? I'm contemplating upgrade from BX24 to b26 or B3030 and like the increased lift capacities bucket specs on the b26. Not sure if the weight will be a little damaging to the areas I plan to use it.
