kubota bx25d

Has anyone looked at the DR ripper for their backhoe? I was looking on the web at DR stuff and noticed they have a ripper tooth. I started thinking I wonder if I could get that to fit the BX. When I looked that the reviews I noticed one person said they used it on their Kubota and it fit...

Good morning! We are in need a of BX24D for R & D for a new mechanical backhoe thumb. It must be a D model since we will make it mount to the same location as the factory accessory does. We would need it delivered to our ship in Cleveland Ohio and only need it for a week. You will get a free...

I noticed our new BX25D seems to let the backhoe leak down if I don't pin it in place. If I leave the tractor overnight the backhoe droops down to about a foot off the ground. Just was wondering if other BX owners are seeing the same thing or if I may have a bad seal. Also if I test the...

Was looking at new BX25D and new Mahindra eMax 25, w/ backhoe, then saw BX25D loader, mower, backhoe under 200 hrs, backhoe never used, almost no scratches in FEL, 60" mower has most use for $18,000, eMax was $22,500 similar price for BX25D new. What do you think, am keeping my B2920, like John...

This post is basically about this: If a dealer sells you a tractor he advertised as an "A" but really is a "B" being sold as an "A" and the buyer (me) really didn't know the difference at the time, is the dealer liable in any way? Is a Dealer responsible to KNOW what they are actually selling...

Hi all, I'm hoping to get some feedback on implements. I'm new to operating (~50 hours on my BX25), have just bought a chunk of land, and will be: - Having a house built (hiring a builder most likely) - Building a gravel driveway (currently just dirt/mud, never been a road there before) -...

Hello, Doing my 50 hour service. I noticed a hose coming out of the coolant over flow tank from the top of the yellow cover. It is just hanging not connected to anything? Is this correct? Did not see any reference to this in the manual. What does it do and or connect if anywhere? Thanks Dave

Note...I didn't order a mower as I already have a zero turn. Kubota BX25D-TLB 23hp tractor Front loader (LA240) Backhoe (BT602) 48" front loader bucket 8" backhoe bucket BX2506 Three point hitch kit for BX25 R4 industrial tires (rears filled for counter balance) Manual thumb for backhoe Q/A for...

BX25D was finally delivered today. Block heater is still on backorder. Was able to do a little digging today, though it was cold and the ground is pretty mushy. Pics at delivery. Pics after I got it dirty. Also added the BXpanded bucket hooks.

Thanks to everyone that helped answer my questions and gather info on the 25D. Tonight we brought it home and used it around the house a little. Worked great, smooth and strong for a small machine. It is very different from my larger tractor and I think it will fit in perfectly. I been on...

I just ordered our BX25D and am interested in seeing how the HST fan is arranged. I understand it is vulnerable but have not seen any photos of them and was wondering if anyone has made a plate to protect it or if everyone ordered the Bxpanded one. Theres looks super nice I was just interested...

We are very close to buying a new BX25D, mid mount 60" mower, thumb, loaded tires, with the 3pt hitch. My question is does anyone not like their BX? We want it to replace a B7200 we used for mowing with a rear finish mower. My wife wants the loader for doing her landscaping and gardening and...

Well I have had the little machine a grand total of 4 days, Machine arrived with 3.8 hours on it and now (IIRC) has 9.6. So far it has been a source of great fun and has done things I would have never been able to do by hand. We dug up a stump that had been near my shop that the wind had taken...

Pulled the trigger on a new BX25D today! R-1 Tires, 60" mmm, thumb, 3ph kit, ROPS mounted work lights, fluid filled rear tires, and block heater. Thanks to all who offered pricing comments in this forum, I feel like I was able to negotiate a fair price with my neighborhood dealer. If the...

I'm seriously considering trading my 2005 BX1500, 1200 hrs, with 48" mmm and LA181 FEL for a new BX25D TLB with 60" mmm, mechanical thumb, 12" bucket, 3 ph kit, std ROPS mount lights, block heater, and loaded rear tires. The BX1500 is in good condition, and everything has always been stored...

Price for this unit is $16250 with financing as advertised. Seems like a new unit with 0% for 60 months may be a better deal than this one? Kubota BX25D Demo unit | Johnson Equipment Company

Was wondering what if any differences from 2012-21014 on bx25d. Is year important or hours for example how much more is a 2014 worth over a 2012 (5 hrs)basically full warranty.thanks in advance

Does anyone have the new snow blade that mounts to the loader quick attach? I'm assuming its manual angle? If it is I wonder if it could be easily converted to hydraulic? Does anybody have any feedback on them? Thanks

There's about $5500 difference in similarly spec'd machines. Am I gaining anything else beyond the backhoe?

Hello all! I will try to make this as brief as possible. My wife and I have recently moved out of the suburbs to a beautiful 4 acre semi wooded lot. My driveway is around a 1/4 mile long and consists of 3/4 stone so I need to maintain it and plow it. I also want to do some minor clearing mainly...

I'm considering a trade into a new BX25D from my '07 BX24 with 750 hours. The Deal is reasonable to me and hoping my wife agrees (another Pinot Grigio please bartender) This year I picked up a B2789 with Manual Chute Rotation...bought it used, and I've never used it. Hooked up the snowblower...

I'm a tiny bit less of a newbie than I was this morning. Got a quote from my local Kubota dealer on a BX25D. Too high for me, but I went in and looked at it today and got the backhoe dirty. First time to sit on a tractor or operate one. Home Depot now rents Kubota BX25D tractors so after the...

We have a four-acre piece of property with a load of projects waiting to happen (and potentially some more property coming online). We moved in last November and are now embarking on our second year working on the place, and we've decided to make a change when it comes to our tractor. Currently...

New to the forum, I've read a lot of good insight so far - Thanks! Little back ground first - small property but a lot of 'projects' over the next two years that a small machine would come in real handy (at least I've convinced myself of that, and I think the boss is on board). I've looked at...

Twice now I have broken different welds on the 3pt Sway Links (the welds from the loops to the nuts).. In examining the rest of the welds, they are all pretty poor... Anyone know of an upgrade for these tiny little links? The first time one broke I was making a really gradual turn with a 4ft...

I was looking for an earlier thread on this, but could not find it. Has anyone actually put the new BX25D FEL quick attach on an earlier model BX25? They are supposed to not be backwards compatible, but I seem to remember someone fitting it on anyways. Thanks, James

Just got my new BX25D, I'm more comfortable using CAT controls. Whats best way to convert controls? Will it hurt machine to convert, not sure on new BT602 backhoe? Thanks for any help!

looks like we cant get it in Canada. so will have to build a blade, so wondering how the brackets attach to the blade.thx

Today I finally tackled a big partially rotted fir tree stump. When I started, I wasn't sure it was possible. The challenge was that it was on a very steep grade and needed the stump to go so I could properly backfill my second retaining wall. Difficult to get to except from below and from...

Got a very slow front tire leak after 70 hours. I don't see anything wrong on inspection. Suggestions? Filled twice with air during 1.5 months use. What are my options?

I seem to be finding another one each time I lube! Haven't seen in the manual, the specific locations for all. Am I missing it somewhere? :confused3:

I need to make a tool box of some sort for my BX25D, but I'm having trouble coming up with a location. Post up some pics of what you are using.

Okay I have been using my BX25D for just under a month and I just hit 50 hours and it's time to service it. I have read some great posts on the subject but unfortunately I didn't bookmark them except for this excellent one started by JohnThomas...

Hello, Im new to owning a Kubota BX25D I am wondering if there are different size nippes on my kubota? My grease gun seems to fit some but not all and im wondering if i am doing it right.

Hi there, This is my first "real" tractor purchase. It's being dropped off after work today. The sales guy said he didn't think the process would take very long at all (20-30 mins start to finish). From what I've read on these forums it seems like folks usually take an hour or two with the...

Okay folks, I have an acre of sloped property. Some have already seen a bit of what I am dealing with but here is another question. I am planning to terrace as necessary using Allen Block, trying to limit my steps (wall heights) to 4ft and I want to gently slope the areas between the steps so...

This almost could be a commercial... but in reality, just a sequel to my recent and now obsolete thread, "First real day on BX25D - need encouragement" I now have 27hrs on my baby and couldn't be happier. It is a joy to jump on and in a couple of hours, really accomplish something. Today I...

I am mostly keeping in 4WD all of the time and occasionally locking the differential when needed working on the slopes of my cleared property. Today I was driving across, turning around a bunch on paved road. My question is when I am going back and forth and turning hard across a paved area...

Okay this might be a stupid question, but someone said there are no stupid questions (I can't say I am a subscriber to this) but here goes... I have just finished cutting in a 200ft long by 6ft wide tractor trail to get down to my lower property. It is pretty steep trail but it is now at least...

Took a little time to hose off my dirty new BX yesterday and noticed moisture under the glass on the instrument panel. Didn't use pressure, just basically a rinse. Is this normal? Anyone else experience this? Seems like it should be better sealed than this! :mad:

I have a BX 2230 and I am planning to purchase a BX25D. Can anyone give some idea what is a current price?

Looking to buy the Kubota tool box but would really like to mount it to the right side due to access concern/desire. In 4Shorts historic thread: http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/kubota-owning-operating/275347-bx25d-mod-1-continued.html I believe he modded a stock unit for mounting on the...

Okay, I finally had a chance to get my new BX25D dirty today. :licking: Full disclosure first. This is my first tractor (other than a JD riding lawnmower). I have a sloping some places very steep 1.5 acre of which about 1acre freshly cleared property. Soil is very rocky. I will post some...

I layed down some cash and "ordered" a BX25 D on the 30th of May. My dealer said it should be in within 2 weeks. Last week he got a little short on the 14th when I asked where it was. Needless to say... no shiny new BX25 D in my yard yet and tomorrow is 3 weeks. What is a typical backlog...

My new BX25D is <2 months old and has just under 80 hours.. Been working her pretty hard.. Yes I knew the risk of shredding the fan but after crawling under the tractor and evaluating the stock skid plate I made the call that it would be a 1 in 1000 stick that found it's way in there.. So opted...

I need a favor... I'm trailer shopping right now, and need to know the total length of the BX25D with the FEL and Backhoe attached but in the stowed or shortest configuration. If anybody has theirs hooked up could you please measure it and post the total length as though you were going to...

Originally started to look at the BX25D with backhoe and loader, and a JD 1025R with backhoe and loader... then thought about going bigger to the JD 2 series, the 2520R (but they are phasing those out) replacing it with 2025R. So the dilemma is try to find a 2520 or wait a month and get the...

I just purchased a new BX25D. I have less than 10 hours on it. I'm having issues with the seat latch not latching but my big problem is that after using the loader for half an hour or so the bucket won't raise or pivot. I shut it down and restarted it but no change. If I leave it overnight it...

Well, I shook hands today on a reasonable deal on a BX25D with option of 3-point hitch and adjustable thumb for the back hoe. They are going to prep it for delivery on Friday afternoon. Although excited, I have been scrutinizing this forum for tips and recommendations which will allow me to...

I'm looking at a local dealership that has a brand new 2013 BX25D. It comes with 60" mower, 3pt hitch, fel, backhoe and I believe 8" bucket. I am looking to finance with the 60 month 0% interest. Our tax is 8%. They are quoting payments of $368 a month. That would mean the out the door tax price...

Back in 2001 I bought a BX23 and loved that little tractor until work called me back to the big city and I had to let it go.. Here we are 12 years later and the family and I have once again shed the city and are building back out in the county on a few acres! Picked up my new BX25D last...

Does anyone know what the difference between the brotech plates (looks like you need to get two to get the same protection?) vs the bx expanded uderarmor plate? I don't really care about leaving a plate in place when mounting the mmm, so that feature is not a decision maker for me. I like the...

Anyone checked into this? I'm just curious, as it looks like the new BX seat would be more comfortable and supportive, especially with the arm rests.

I've been lurking for quite some time and am almost ready to pull the trigger on a bx25d. This will be my first scut pirchase as well as first big mowing deck. Ive been encouraged by my neighbor to purchase a 54 inch deck , so not knowing anthing else , thats what ive priced out. The dealer I'm...

Hi, new to the forum looking for some advice. Got my search down to these two tractors. I'm building a house this spring. I'm renting or hiring out the big work and looking at these two tractors for lighter work. Leveling top soil seeding, plants,shrubs and cleaning up my woods(6 acres) also...

Good morning to all.. I wasn't sure if my new BX25 was going to do all that I wanted her to do. But, so far, She has surpassed!!! All of my expectations! I do 100 face cord of firewood per year and moving logs around and loading firewood with the Kubota make my life not only a lot easier...

I'm calling this mod #1 although I already got a few others done but I'll post on them later. This is a ripper tooth I fabricated. It's pretty well built from scrap around the shop. It weighs 36 lbs so that's not to bad considering the bucket weighs around 40 lbs. As you can see I also added a...

What are the differences, if any, between the FEL on a BX25D and the FEL on a BX25 or BX24? Not including the QA. Any design, structural or metal size differences? Cylinder size? TIA

:thumbsup: I am not sure what to label this, a BX25D or a BX70. I see a different seat, what do you wanna bet it works better than the BX25 seat, which I dislike. We shall see eventually. The seat has a higher back and arm rests. I also see a bolt on toolbox deal. I see a BH adjustable...
