Tractor Cab Comparison! -JD 1-Series Vs. Kubota BX + Electric Wiper/LED Cab Light Install

[@herbcaldwell943]

Very professional looking job.I really like the way you take the time and at explaining your thought process.

[@BiffsEquipment]

Thanks Herb I appreciate that buddy. Hope you have a great thanksgiving weekend!

[@D70340]

And yes sir folks, here`s another fun video! Thanks for posting this Biff! Great job brother! I live a little east of you (Watkins Glen NY), i`m at the point where i`m looking into getting one of these cabs. Just waiting for them to make one for the BX23s Kubota`s. Winters here in the fingerlakes seem to be getting a little more harsh.... or, maybe i`m just getting to dang old to put up with the cold like i use to. I gave up snowmobiling because it became to harsh on my old bones an muscles, lol. Cheer`s my neighbor, stay warm and safe out there!

[@BiffsEquipment]

Thanks Larry! I hear ya the cold certainly does effect you more the older you get, my father is the same way it kills his fingers, we are trying to get him into a cab as well. You can buy a cab for yours from them, you just have to get the cab made for the BX2380, as long as you leave the backhoe office once you install the cab it should be fine, then when winter is over you can remove the cab like I do and reinstall your backhoe for the summer. If you end up buying one let me know how it goes!

[@BiffsEquipment]

Watkins Glen isn’t too far from me! Use to love going out there for the races!

[@davidshipulski4532]

Great video! extremely informational! Love the videos thanks man!

[@BiffsEquipment]

Thanks Dave, glad you enjoyed! It was a lot of information to pack in one video so I tried to speak as quickly as I could haha. I debated making it a 2 part video but decided against it. Thanks for watching!

[@garymonsarratt6048]

Thanks for a very straight forward video ,The way i like it . This will be my first winter with my bx23 cant wait.

[@BiffsEquipment]

Very cool man, your gonna love it, the BX is a beast in the snow, does a fantastic job plowing also!

[@toddcaskey9984]

Great job, happy thanksgiving to you and your family oh and that other Biff !🤪

[@BiffsEquipment]

Thanks Todd! It was funny in the beginning of this video actually passed my brother driving down the road lol. So I guess I can say he was finally in a video haha. Hope you had a great thanksgiving as well!

[@jeffwilliams4676]

I hope you had a great Thanksgiving. Keep the videos of your 1999 2nd Gen Dodge Ram Cummins truck going.

[@BiffsEquipment]

Thanks Jeff you too man! I been meaning to do an update video on my truck and still plan to since I’ve done all those upgrades. Just been caught up lately. Hope you had a great thanksgiving also!

[@prayeranon2631]

Another great video . You really do nice work and your friend will be very happy with the install ,thanks for sharing your work and God bless brother .

[@BiffsEquipment]

Thanks man I appreciate you watching, hope all has been well with you and your family and I’m glad you enjoyed, he’s excited to get plowing with it this year! God bless!

[@ww3ok]

It is great that you explain everything. Thanks.

[@BiffsEquipment]

Thanks Gary! I try not to leave anything out that’s for sure but makes the videos much longer haha. Thanks for watching 👍🏻

[@BigDsHomestead]

I was afraid once you touched "Johnny" lightening was gonna strike you. How dare you cheat on your orange baby bx like that. Lol. I am gonna check on getting me a cab similiar to yours for my bx1880. Definately cheaper than the Curtis cabs that are available. I think over $6500 or so. Maybe more counting dealer labor. You have some great mods, so far, but you've still gotta get you some Paul Short mods for your bx. He's the best, imo. I have quite a few from Paul & Kathy Short. Keep those vids coming. GOD Bless.

[@bobslawntractoraddiction]

Nice work

[@davesmathers1990]

Great job glad you figured out that wiper.👌

[@BiffsEquipment]

Thanks Dave, It turned out nice!

[@dennisresech2382]

You have same problem I have on right side how seal shift selector 4 wheel lever. My curtis cab they did not consider this. at 20 degrees it really gets cold their. \\

[@BiffsEquipment]

Yah I agree, when it’s 20 degrees or colder it can be tough to keep it warm inside the cab. I planned on buying a larger heater this winter for the cab but never did, I’ll get a larger heater for it next year.. regardless tho it’s still way better than not having a cab that’s for sure! Curtis makes some awesome cabs too! I wanted their newest one made by artillian but it’s only for the BX80 series and will not fit the BX70 or older models. Thanks for watching!

[@kyleshilman8541]

Is your Original Tractor Cab discount code still active?

[@johnhershey4010]

Are you going to put a stack on the JD like you did with the BX

[@BiffsEquipment]

Hey John, so the John Deere is my friends tractor, he prolly doesn’t want a stack but I may be putting one on my fathers tractor as he said he would like one some day. Hope your having a great week!

[@johnhershey4010]

@@BiffsEquipment Thanks. Longs its stays in the 70s

[@chdinct6792]

Nice comparison of the same cab on two different tractors. Saw your BX fuel fill is inside your cab. How is it accessed for refilling? Didn’t think about that until I saw the fuel fill inside the cab.

[@BiffsEquipment]

Thanks man! As for the fuel cap I wish I had explained in the video but forgot to talk about it, all you gotta do is open the right side door and you can get right to the fill cap, it’s slightly harder to fill now but it’s honestly not a big deal what so ever. It’s even easier to fill if you have a transfer tank like I do where you can use a nossle with a handle on it. Thanks for watching!

[@kr5289]

What about those holes drilled in the top for the light wouldn't water drip there?

[@BiffsEquipment]

It shouldn’t be an issue, the light bar comes with rubber gaskets but I couldn’t use them as the light was barely gonna clear his barn as it was so I didn’t want to make it any taller than I had to.. if it ever did leak (which I doubt it would as the bolts take up the gap) you could always throw a thin bead of Calk around the bolts

[@BiffsEquipment]

PS. The strobe light on the roof of my own cab didn’t come with any rubber gaskets either and it has never leaked on me, and there was 3 holes I had to drill for that.

[@kr5289]

@@BiffsEquipment thanks biff

[@3rob3]

Hey. Just wondering what size your trailer is? Trying to figure out the minimum I can get by with to move a BX short distances a couple times a year.

[@BiffsEquipment]

My trailer is a 5x12 but it’s got a 3500lb axle and I have beefed it up also. It does the job if you don’t own a 60” belly mower because it won’t fit. You’d need a 6x12 to fit that. I also keep my trailer under 50 if I can. Next summer I’m getting a tandem axle

[@3rob3]

@@BiffsEquipment Thanks a lot! Just discovered your videos recently and really enjoying them.

[@BiffsEquipment]

@@3rob3 thanks man I’m glad to hear it! I appreciate the support and Hopefully I can continue to make content you all will like 👍🏻

[@Buddy73111]

Does the wiring disconnect easily if you want to remove the cab?

[@BiffsEquipment]

It doesn’t on this one because he never plans to remove his cab, he plans to keep it on Indefinitely but if you want it to be easily removable all you’d have to do is cut the power and ground where it goes in towards the bottom of the cap and splice in an insulated 2 prong connector.. then when you pull the cab off in the summer you’d just simply unplug the wires and lift the cab off (this is what I did with my own cab)

[@ecard0]

The promo code does not work :(

[@ecard0]

Sorry my bad… It’s not valid on a full cab :( It would been nice 👍 Great video

[@BiffsEquipment]

@@ecard0 it’s all good, yah the promo code is for accessories only, you may be able to use code “TTWT” for 5% off the cab tho. Try it as it may work 👍🏻

[@ecard0]

@@BiffsEquipment Too late, I already ordered :(

[@BiffsEquipment]

Damn sorry man. That’s alright your still gonna love it!

[@outdoorsinthenorthwest9763]

Thanks for the video. Slow down on your speaking,I’m 63.

[@rickvb2709]

You can adjust the play back speed by clicking the gear on the bottom right of the video to a slower play speed.

[@kr5289]

yeah, that's that northern thing us Kentuckians hear slow as we speak slow LOL

[@BiffsEquipment]

Haha I have to speak fast otherwise the video would be 40 minutes long and nobody would watch it, when I have a lot of information to pack in one video I have to speak quickly for that reason unfortunately
