Not sure if anyone mentioned ANSUNG, looks like they have loaders for Kubota tractor models from the BX on up to the M/MX series.

I'm in the market to upgrade my 2019 BX2680 I purchased used in 2022. At the time, I was looking for a smaller frame B series like a B2601, but with Covid still impacting new and used sales, BX's were much easier to come by at what I thought was not a Covid inflated price. The BX has been good...

Regarding the flail option, I have given it some consideration. I'm actually running an Ironcraft FL-135 on my BX since 2023. In hindsight, I would have got a 4 ft RC, at least vs a light duty flail. Three aspects I like about the flail, one the offset, two it won't throw anything like an RC...

Hello, looking to upgrade my BX to at least a standard L. I bought my BX2680 used in 2022. I was initially looking at the B models, 2601 or 2650, but all I could find that I thought weren't inflated by Covid/lack of new tractors, were the BXs. Actually have been impressed with the BX, does a lot...

Thanks, that's what I was thinking

I'm plugging away at 400 hr maintenance items on my BX2680. I purchased it used at about 200 hrs so this is my 1st HST fluid change. I've read the manual and watched a few YT videos. What is the deal with whether to have the loader attached? I usually remove the loader for most service. I've...

Definitely second the 1/2" impact wrench. Picked one up a few years ago after 40+ years of breaker bars, etc. I've been buying the Ridgid cordless tools from HD for a few years. Tools are good quality and batteries seem to last quite a while and the only battery that failed was replaced at no...

Giving my Ironcraft flail mower a workout this year with all of the rain we've had in the northeast. Was working on mid-season maintenance and a couple things came up. I was greasing the two ends of the flail axle as it is referred to. When I grease the non-drive side, no grease comes out from...

Thanks for all of the replies, good to see no one is jumping at replacing all of those hoses at 400 hrs. Regarding the secondary filter, the BX2680 had a Fleetguard AF25550 installed when I purchased it used. I replaced it once before with the same filter. The AF25550 has a matching Fleetguard...

Coming up on 400 hrs on my BX2680 - getting ready for the 400 hr service items. I do a Rock Auto order 2-3 times per year and try to get everything I’ll need for the cars/truck, tractor, and other OPE. For the coolant change I was going to change out the fan belt. Kubota part # is a 16241-97013...

Thanks, forgot about Northern Tool , haven't bought from them in years

I'm looking for sources for lighter weight 36" pallet forks for my BX. Last year I bought a 16" carrier with 42" forks. I wanted shorter forks, but the local suppliers only had 42". The 42" forks I have are 1 1/8" to 1 1/4" thick and the blades are about 3". I can find used 36" forks, but they...

Nice idea, I was thinking about something like this - I have a 3 pt receiver and initially was thinking welding a used weight frame to it. Costs of weights eliminated that. I was thinking about casting it in concrete - 2 cu ft. would give you about 300 lbs which seems about what this is. Great...

Thanks, didn't think of a carry-all; if I can keep it compact, might be better than a ballast box since I could get more uses out of it

I need to come up with a low cost rear ballast option when using my FEL on my BX2680. I have been just leaving my box blade or even my tiller on the 3 pt. I'd rather have something taking up less space though, the box blade and tiller can get in the way in tight quarters. Anything with weights...
