    New BX mower decks are much nicer!

    While picking up a replacement tire for my BX24, was checking out the new machines and noticed the new mower decks have improved nicely.. this might not be new news but it was to me.. the belt appears to be well over an inch wide and the gearbox (cast iron) looks like it can take a beating. I...

    BX Grass catcher - new vs old version

    Hi all, Anyone BX grass catcher knows it's far from a pleasure to install and remove.. in fact I did not use mine this year because of that. While it is heavy, the bigger problem is that it's not balanced weight-wise making it very awkward to handle. I apparently have the older version as I have...

    BX24 engine shroud cracks

    Hello All, Has anyone else experienced cracks in the orange plastic engine shroud at the top edge (just under the hood, about 1/3 back from the grill) where there is a bit of a jog?

I was surprised how hard...

    Anyone using BX24 power beyond for other stuff?

    Hello all, Have any of you used the rear hydraulics for something other than the BH? Considering a 3PH log splitter, lift cylinder for dump trailer, etc.. I know there needs to be an open loop as with the BH off, one hose couples to the other.. Also know there are open circuit and closed...

    From Deere X585 to Kubota BX24 w/mods

    Hello all, Decided to sell my beloved Deere X585 and move up to a BX24.. Had the BX for 3 weeks now and it is awesome, although the Deere was more comfortable to sit on.. oh well, it is a tool, not a highway cruiser. The first thing I did was put lights on the ROPS, 2 forward trapazoids and...

    Can blown Hydro Pump fill engine crankase?

    I am posting this on behalf of my brother-in-law's grey market Iseki. The front loader became very slow. The hydro oil was very low so he topped it off. Hydrp performance still real slow, then oil was spraying everywhere under the hood - looks like from vented oil fill cap. Crankcase overflowing...
