Kubota BX2230. Need to replace the front tires first. They are factory OTR 18x8.5-8 4 ply. I contacted a couple of the local AG tire shops and told them I'd like a 6 or 8 ply tire to replace it. They all quoted BTK Skidpower HD tires. As the name implies, they are skid steer tires and there...

Yep 143 and 124 were both flooded and Rutland was underwater on Friday. The water coming off our hill is just a non-stop gusher. Thank God we put a drain tile to route water to the township ditch. At the bottom of the link below, there is a video on its operation. Jansen is a German company and...

Update on towable backhoe. The Go-For Digger is my favorite but its hard to find one that hasn't been used and abused. And decent used ones are 15-20K. The Jansen MB-360 is my front runner now as it has a grapple option and 360 degree rotation like a bigger excavator. They have a $150 discount...

Do let us know what you find out. This group needs closure. : )

I am assuming the factory pump is internally gear driven and removing and opting for an external one would require some kind of cover plate, correct?

Dan, I have had good luck with Batteries Plus if you have any in your area. I would not normally think to buy an equipment battery there but they had them in stock. And if you set up a business account, it saves you a nice chunka change.

When you do have to replace it, look for brands manufactured by East Penn Manufacturing. They are the makers of the legendary Deka batteries that Kubota used. Kubota has since OEM changed supplies and my dealer said he believes they are Interstate. For me, East Penn's batteries are heavier...

If top speed is not super important, maybe try one of the RTV X models. Throttle is very smooth and once you get used to it, braking is smooth too. It is a work machine and about 10mph slower than the 850.

Cheap batteries aren't worth it to me. I did find East Penn manufactured batteries in an unusual place. Batteries Plus stores have them under the Duracell brand name which I would not normally buy. But clearly stamped on the battery is made by East Penn. We have a business account which saves...

If you haven't already bought a replacement, look for one manufactured by East Penn Manufacturing. They are consistently heavier and longer lasting than any I've seen. They were the manufacturers of the legendary Dekka batteries. Now if you call the dealer today for oem replacement, it will...

Hey B22, we need closure on this. Did you get her running? What was the problem?

Hey Green, when you back up a hill, are you able to mash on the brake and get the pressure to release? I have also had success pressing lightly on the go pedal as I move the shifter.

Jasper, I've had mine 6 years and no regrets. It was based on a suggestion from Bordercollie who had good luck with hers. As you know, the RTVs don't generate as much wheel spin as other UTVs. But the large voids on the Evolutions fling the red clay mud really well. I haven't been stuck in the...

I hate to ask this....but are you sure they filled it up with diesel? If so, did you inspect the source they used for debris?

What great news! Glad no one was hurt and the buggy is back in bidness.

We are anxious to know if this fixed your issue. Getting closure on this makes the lesson learned available for others. Hope it worked!

I don't know what causes that but I marvel at God's creation - that is just stunning. Almost heaven.

I am in a similar situation except I am planning a towable backhoe purchase. Once I have that, the stable will be complete. I just sold our 9N and all the implements except the disc harrow and an extra blade. Now I have room to store the next purchase. Unless there is a major pullback in sales...

Would love to hear it!

A smart move for Kubota would be a start a loyalty program that rewards existing Kubota customers with a meaningful discount on any new products, like the X model. Meaningful for me is like $1000-1500 off the price. Of course, if they like their sales volume as it is, they probably wouldn't...
