A day in the life of a Kubota BX25D

Any ideas on the foot peg? Thinking of chain + tree + pull = who knows lol

I just put a block of wood against it and use a BFH (Big Hammer). I've had to "adjust" mine 3 times so far.

sorry double posting everything...gotta love Microsoft.

I'm not really a Microsoft fan but this phenomenon is not unique to MS. Happens on my beloved Apple too. It is pretty simple to delete the duplicate post though. Just takes a few steps if you click edit, delete, then delete post or something like that.

Now that could go two ways....super cool or look real stupid. Me being never afraid of looking stupid as that is my natural state I might just give that a go.

Yes I am a bit loopy....but very sad....something got to one of my turkeys last night.

We use to go hunting together

When we bend something, we use a big hammer, bottle jack or if the part can be removed, a shop press. One of my sons recently bent a step beyond repair and it will be cut off and a different one welded on.

Do any of you all have a knocking type of noise when side hilling. Sort of sounds like the something is bumping the frame? Sort of wondering if the engine mount is loose - got dark too soon tonight for me to look into it

I had some knocking and after much searching I found it was the backhoe banging on the pins as I was driving on bumpy areas.

This weekend I hope to get her all cleaned up, she worked hard and needs a good detail job. Thanks for the soot ideas.

Thanks Cherokee140. Mine seem to becoming from the front (right now I don't have the hoe on but that is good info). May have to start a new thread and see what everyone is noticing.
Good luck on the upcoming procedure!

I started doing the cleaning, I got most of the mud and such off of her (I still need a name, perhaps starting a thread NAME THAT TRACTOR) Is in order.

Surgery is for Jan 7. So not too far away....actually looking forward to it.

Question for you guys moving snow, do you leave the backhoe on there....I know the weight is good but it would make the machine a little longer and a little harder to move the snow around. Taking the backhoe off would seem to make it more nimble.....thoughts.

In my experience, leaving the BH on does not help for snow removal. In fact it makes it worse. It's just too much weight back there making the front end too light. When plowing snow the front end gets pushed around much more than when the BH is off.

The info I wanted to know....thanks.

I remove the backhoe and hang a 5' rear blade of the 3ph. This works great for small storms of only a few inches.
