Kubota bx25

[check]

Very, very interesting. Thanks for all the replys guys. I have looked at those skid plates, and yes I saw underneath the machine today. Lots of openness and "things" under there. I will invest in a skid plate soon.

About the hydraulics, are you saying the pressure can be upped for better digging with a test kit and shims ?

You bet. Check out the discussions on this - people report a huge impact, and I bought the pressure test/shim kit myself from BXpanded.com. BTW I also got the backhoe dolly from BXpanded.com, because I got a Kubota B2789 rear snowblower and of course I had to take off the backhoe to use the blower. So, I wanted a backhoe stand I could roll around the garage floor, and the dolly works great!

BTW, you might also want to purchase the 3-point hitch for the rear, so you can use the many rear-mounted implements you can get for your new BX25. It's only about $300.

in a word yes. However, I suggest working with your BX for awhile to get to know its weaknesses and how it behaves before upping the pressure. Upping the pressure puts more stress on the tractor parts, making it easier to bend/break something. I upped mine just a little and it was all I need. I seen others upped thier pressure much higher then mine and no problems-- yet..
