Every time I watch one of your videos I keep my eyes open for a New Holland bidirectional tractor. In this video I saw not one, but two of them, and that made my day! Any chance you would ever do a video on a New Holland bidirectional tractor? I know it might not make sense from a commercial standpoint, as they are not currently in production, but I have found they are quite underrated for how useful they can be.

I'd like to support my local Kubota dealer more in Washington state but the prices of those implements are just way too high! Almost 3 grand for a grapple for my 2501 tractor! So now I just find used implements online or at my local auction. I'd like to get the grapple but there's absolutely no reason for them to be priced so high.

If you are buying a new tractor, get as many optional hydraulic rear remotes as you can. My tractor came with one rear remote. I had one optional one fitted but I should have had two fitted for three in total.

Our flail mower we got from you has been great! We live on rocky hills, and quite surprisingly the hammers do a fabulous job of breaking the limestone in the field. A bumpy land becomes a flat lawn within a couple mowings.

I'm looking at our leads system for Morgan Shelby and I don't see anything. Glad to help. 800-222-3373. Our prices will the be same as what you see on the wolfe-ridge website, but our lead times and freight costs will be better.

I bought the trail blazer with the power pack. I was happy to see the Iron Craft is still making them. Lane Shark insists you dont need them, but i guarantee you the Lane Shark will work better with that power pack by Iron Craft. My question is what else could i do with the power pack with another front end attachment?😊

I have a few implement wants, but the budget won't allow it for a while LOL. I use the pallet forks I ordered from you a couple years ago all the time....granted they're not for the BX, and during the pandemic it was pretty much impossible to get sub-compact pallet forks, seems like that hasn't changed....given the very limited lift capacity of the BX already, the heavier pallet forks are pretty detrimental to the amount of weight that one can lift with them. I think about 400 pounds max is all my Kubota BX2680 is able to handle....I now have a ballast box which I filled with sand....and that has helped drastically in being able to safely lift anything with the loader.....the roto-tiller (RTR0550) and the box blade don't weigh nearly enough to use for ballast especially when using the pallet forks. I'm guessing if I was ever able to get a set of sub-compact pallet forks/frame the BX probably could lift closer to 500 pounds....the forks I got from Messicks I think are what would be considered the compact series, from Titan. They're good but just heavy....also the forks are 42" forks, which makes a difference too....occasionally it would be nice to have 36" forks especially for moving around my mid mount mower that is stored really close to a wall on the lean to of my shop...so you gotta be careful otherwise you could send the forks through the wall LOL. I don't think I need a snow blower for my Kubota, maybe eventually one of those blades that mounts on the loader, but we don't get enough snow most of the time to justify the cost of one of those front mount snow blowers....nice as they are, the cost VS usage makes no sense for my location....That 4 point hitch system is pretty nice though, the local dealer had a BX2380 setup with a front mount snow blower in the showroom this past winter....really nice setup that Kubota put together for that. Although I'd highly recommend a cab if you want to use a snow blower....otherwise you'll end up soaked because no matter what you do you end up with blowback from those blowers.....I had a snow blower for my lawn tractor....worked great, except I think I wore just as much snow as the thing was blowing out due to the wind.....so a cab would be highly recommended for snow blowing applications on a tractor. Lots of cool stuff out there on the Lot Neil....a lot of that stuff I'd never have a use for....I have a small list, but the problem is to have anything shipped to me from where your locations are is astronomical....then I have to figure out how to receive it as deliveries are always during hours I'm at work, and delivery companies don't like delivering or won't deliver to a different location, which I understand, but its kind of inconvenient to order stuff from anywhere due to shipping costs and trying to figure out delivery arrangements. It took I think 4 days to get my pallet forks, and you guys shipped them to a Fedex dock which was extremely convenient, expensive but very convenient....the warehouse called me when the forks arrived, and I made arrangements to pickup the next day, simple, quick, and easy.....I wish all places did that. Even when I ordered my pallet forks from you guys, the whole process was quick, easy, and you had them in stock when nobody else did. All that inventory you keep in stock, pays dividends when a customer calls, and needs something and you have it when nobody else does....although now it seems like the biggest share of equipment and implements are arriving quicker so it may not be as big of an issue, but still....when you are able to as a company keep a larger inventory of a lot of common parts, accessories, attachments, implements....its a massive income to your business in the end because you have the product while other places don't and you have a huge selection too, when the supply chain is running efficiently. Thanks for all the great informative videos Neil/Messick's....and thanks to Neil for all the Kubota BX series videos over the past few years, really made my mind up on which tractor I needed....I mean I'd love to have one of those huge M-Series tractors, but I'd need more than an acre of land to use the thing LOL. Always learn something from your videos, even though I don't live anywhere close to any of your dealerships, watching your videos makes me feel as though I'm there with you....as a first time tractor buyer/owner, your videos helped a lot although I did make 1 mistake, I let my salesman talk me out of a couple things during the initial purchase which a regret....one was the 3rd function kit, the other was waiting on buying a rotary cutter...should have got both when I did the initial purchase....it was quite a bit more expensive to have that 3rd function kit added after the fact....still don't have a grapple, but I remembered you mentioning that if a tractor model changes, its possible that the kit may no longer be available....so I took the tractor in last year and had the kit installed so its there when I do get a grapple, or anything else that would require the 3rd function.....err...I guess technically its a diverter from what I understand.

What brand forks are light for BX? I'm looking for light weight ones for my New Holland WM25s. So far, Goodworks tractor has 900 lb 36" forks for 190 lb $1,100. I paid $800 for CNH brand 2,200 lb 42" forks which weighs 310 lb, 2 years ago.
@MessicksEquip5 ай бұрын
I don't often see the sense in making decisions over 20-30 even 50-60 pounds. There are so many more things that go into working out what the tractor is going to lift. I have HLA forks personally that have a minimalist backing plate I like. The lightest weight stuff is often that way for a reason that may not be good.
