As expected, the new LX3310 is common rail injected. This should eliminate the regeneration issues that so plagued the B3350.

Cab models have LED work lights and optional air ride seat.

Both models offer single lever FEL hydraulic connections.

Quick connect front hitch similar to BX models available.

Though unclear from my information, it appears that a rear hydraulic remote is included.

R14 tires available.

HP remains same.

Thanks for the info.

Will it be similar in size to the B series or move up towards the L series? Any indication of price?

Given the problems with the B3350, I wonder how many early adopters there will be for the LX series.

Will this LX series offer a 26hp variant?
Are you aware if there are any changes to the B2601-1/B2301-1?

The LX2610 replaces the B2650 and is similar in size and weight.

HP of replacement models is identical to that of prior models.

I do not believe that prices have been announced but you can expect increases, especially for the common rail 3310 model.

Thank you sir.

This is an interesting post as I've been reading old threads looking to perhaps replace my BX with a B3350 for more FEL and PTO capacity...but, there was that thought in the back of my head that some older B models had regen problems...

Looking at the price of an LX in 2025 and the (as of 2025) small-ish increase in lifting ability...I'll be sticking with a BX.

'Smallish" increase in lift? It's a ~57% increase, right? So it's a significant increase by percentage.

good luck....

BX2370 vs B2601 (full at 500mm)
lift: 518 / 659 lbs : +27%
breakout: 992 / 1520 lbs : +53%

Older B3350:
lift/brkout: 827/1691: +60%/+157%

The B3350 has numbers matching its frame size increase (or at least what I was hoping for in a B).

In your post #7 above you compare a BX with a new LX and state there's only a small increase in FEL lift capacity.. That's not the case..

The old B3350 (discontinued 5+ years ago) is the predecessor to the LX line and is the (only) tractor which suffered from regen issues that have been resolved with the LX3310 and larger LX tractors.. There's no comparison between a BX and an LX in lift/performance..

good luck...

LX3310
lift/brkout: 769/1634: +48%/+65% vs the BX

For the increase in price (with FEL), to me it's not as big of improvement as I'd like. The old B was more affordable and much more capable (sans regen).

If the numbers are real-world-relatable the B's breakout was likely overboard for the tractor without a lot of counterweight, but wow would I love it! (Carrying capacity is probably a bit much for the stance, but back then perhaps the average person was more responsible.)

Maybe it's me, I just can't get excited about the LX FEL price vs performance, but the B3350 sure looked great until the regen issues showed up.

The old "large" frame B series (ie: B2650/B3350) (vs the "small" frame B2601, etc) was "more affordable" (cost less) because it was produced 12+ years ago and stopped ~5+ years ago, LOL... It absolutely not NOT much more capable than the current LX series.


Not sure where you're getting your data, the FEL lift capacity on a LX3310 is:
  • Pivot pin max ht: 1067, Pivot pin @ 1.5m: 1324 (taken directly from Kubota's site)

https://www.kubotausa.com/products/tractors/compact/lx-series#compare

I've owned a BX25D and now own a LX3310.

Your 'Lift/breakout' numbers look more like the specs of their respective backhoes, not the FEL.

Click the model and it goes to the tractor data page I used.

I use the 500mm from the pin figures because when using a FEL I'm usually prying up rocks with the dirt, and they're typically near the bucket lip, so around 500mm ~ 20" from the pins.
