Thank you all for the great advice. As I replied in an earlier post, my neighbor next door did the weld and wouldn't take a dime. I did do all the prep around the weld. Next time I need to weld again, I may invest in the Harbor Freight welder and try and learn how to do it myself.

Yes, it's an Ariens mower but identical to the Husqvarna.

DL, Funny you say that. I called my next-door neighbor at my property asking for a weld shop nearby, and he immediately said he didn't know of any, but that he would do it. He said it took him all of 10-15 minutes since I had already cleaned an preped the area. By the way, he said most weld...

Here is a pitcture

Hello Everyone, One of the braces on the mower on my riding lawnmower is breaking off and needs to be rewelded. I've never had this done (newbie at working land) and have no idea how much it costs for say a 3-4 inch "re-weld" or prep and weld. Any idea (range) of what I should be paying for...

The Kubota BX2680 weighs around 1500 lbs (plus the FEL). THe Uhaul trailer has 3500 lb load capacity, so it seems ok. I won't have any rear attachment just the 3 point hitch. The length of the tractor is 8 ft. I'll have to check if the tractor plus FEL is less than 12 ft in length. Thanks...

My BX2680 has an oil leak in the back and I need to transport to the dealer. It only has 32 hrs so I'm hoping it is covered by warranty. Two questions, please: 1) What size trailer do I need? I recently rented a 6X12 U-haul for another job and that feels like it would work? Thoughts? 2) Do...

Thank to all of you who provide some great insight. Progress after about 6 hours over two days of reducing slope on the hill with FEL & Box blade. I also started clearing out and leveling out the trail that goes out to the river. The slope is such that my riding lawnmower and tractor go up...

Hello Fellow Members, My apologies for my absence. I kept up with the posts the first few days, then stopped. I was not getting any notifications that you all were posting so I apologize for my absence. I am still working on my project. I took the advice of some of you and got a Landprice...

Hello All, I just bought a Bx2680. My first urgent project is to reduce the slope on a dirt road/trail that runs from the front of my 11 acre property down to the river. There are two drops. The first one is about 30ft drop and the second about 20ft. The slope on both is very high...

Hello Everyone, After a lot of research here and on youtube, I'm buying a BX2680. I've been talking with two Kubota dealers (one near my 11 acre property and one near where I live and work.) I'm used to negotiating a lot when buying vehicles and was wondering if you can also negotiate when...

Hello Everyone, Thanks for all the insight! I like in Katy, Texas near Houston and our new property is in Smithville, Texas about 70 miles out. It will be our retirement place but for now, it is our weekend ranch with just an RV. I will be there tomorrow and will take lots of pictures of the...

The creek in our property has about a 24 foot span to cross. Initially it will be used for foot traffic, a riding lawnmover, and ATVs, but next year, I intend to buy a small tractor. The attached link is to a post that details what I need exactly. There are two posts on this page by Wayne who...
