More Kubota BX Tech Tips

[@peterkober6758]

Paul Kathy thanks we as BX owners need pros like you give the tips most kubota dealers don't know the answers God Bless PaK

[@SimpleLife1971]

Paul, I've learned a lot watching your videos allowing me to perform my own maintenance on my BX25 and add a few mods as well. One video in particular is the grapple you added along with the 3rd function valve. I'll be adding the valve to mine next year to angle its 60 inch plow. To my friends to the North, Thank You! Bob

Nice Tech Tip, short and to the point. Would love to see more should you ever get the time to share. Thanks Paul.

I broke the knob off. I put a wrench behind the knob and hit it with a hammer, and off it came. Not the whole knob, just the part you grab as you stated. It wasn't the end of the world, it was not an expensive part. You are right about moving the engine forward. I replaced my HST fan last summer and I rebuilt the CV joints while I had the tractor apart. It was not too difficult, just time consuming as I learned what I needed to do. Great information Paul. When I put the new knob on, I used a little anti-seize lubricant. Next time I remove the knob, I will make a removal tool like you made. Thanks for the BX Tech Tip.

Lol. We all learn from our mistakes, that’s the way it’s supposed to be I guess. Thanks for watching. We got a blizzard on the way. I’m in the mod shop today and ride out the storm tomorrow. Keep well 👍

[@7863348]

No problem! 👍

Your kindly welcome 🙏

There was a bit on the radio a couple of mornings ago talking about people who swear, you might be interested to know people who do are quite intelligent people. Somewhere along the line I never got the intele----, intghea--- um smarts memo. Neat tips there bro. All the best to you both from a warm, overcast and muggy NZ. 22c here

[@7863348]

Na. I don’t think it’s accurate . I cuss more than the average guy and there’s days I’m as dumb as a stump 😂. Keep cool my friend.

[@alanbeaulier5783]

Great as always. I'm finding that for every 3-4 of your videos I watch there's a whole lot more I haven't lol, which is great. Hope I live long enough to see them all:-). Have a good one and take care thank you.

[@ThePlowGuys]

Great tips Paul. I will have to take a look at that.

[@7863348]

Thanks guys. You still doing videos? Haven’t seen one in awhile.

[@ThePlowGuys]

@@7863348 Really busy with the transport side of our job. Not to mention that we really haven't had a lot of snow here. actually, we had a green Christmas.

[@7863348]

Cool. Glad to hear your busy. We had a great fall then just before Christmas we started getting snow. Tomorrow we are supposed to get a blizzard with expected snowfall of 40cm. Should be fun lol. Keep well my friend. Nice hearing from you.

@@7863348 I hear you guys got hit HARD. Stay warm and dry buddy.

[@dmmartin1958]

Keep up the great work.

[@kevinfinney8849]

It doubles as a back scratcher too!

[@7863348]

😅😂🤣

[@mtmawdsley]

Happy New Year to you both.

[@dhamma58]

I wonder if there is room in one of those little tool boxes on the tractor for the specialty tool.

[@Oldyellor]

Now is that tool going to be in your inventory? That would be good to know for those that are unable to bend steel....

[@bernievisser8964]

Thanks a lot Paul and Kathy I really appreciate your channel and info. Paul your memory matches your last name guess that's why. Lol.

[@7863348]

😂🤣 it sure do match it. Thanks for watching.

[@dmac9954]

Larry Musgrave has a video on replacing the HST fan in 2 hours without removing the deck or moving the engine.

[@7863348]

Not always. Depends on Year and model of the BX

[@smooch7034]

A Paul are you going to be making those knob removal tools now LOL I'm sure somebody's going to want one

[@7863348]

No. No plans on making the tool.

[@bombidude]

Paul I'm interested in those front fenders over the front wheels? Do you sell a kit to fit the bx 2380.. Thanks.

[@7863348]

No. Sorry.

[@migueljauvin639]

What seat do you have? On my bx 25D 2011 i don’t have armrests

[@7863348]

@@migueljauvin639 Our BX25D is a 2013 model which was the first year Kubota came out with the arm rests on the seats and a document holder behind the back rest.

[@seames101]

Hey Paul great videos. Have you ever done a brake replacement on a BX25D?

[@7863348]

There are no mechanical brakes on a BX .

[@seames101]

Paul & Kathy Short I bought a BX and it has no brakes and the adjustment rod doesn’t have any left. What kind of brake system does it have?

[@7863348]

Hydraulic brakes. Part of the HST system.

[@jenniferwhitewolf3784]

Excellent tutorial on getting the knobs off.. However, I suggest a real penetrating oil instead of standard WD40, as it has poor penetrating abilities. WD brands does make a real penetrating oil, as do the other companies.. I have had good luck with Knock-Er-Loose, in this very exact issue. Without being able to remove the knob, I used a strap wrench on the knob. Now that I know the method, I will work on that knob. THANK YOU!!!!!!

[@7863348]

Glad you enjoyed it but I’ve been using WD-40 for over thirty years and found it to be a great product. It’s exceeded my expectations every time. We’ll have to agree to disagree lol. Have a great day Jennifer. 👍

[@avs8870]

Hey Paul, that's a serious hum sound in your the audio. Is it yours Florescent lights or a transformer?

[@Glide1992]

I don't hear it.

[@avs8870]

@@Glide1992 Maybe because I'm using headphones at the moment. (So as to not disturb sleeping beauty.) it's more noticeable at the beginning. It gets lower when his wife gets closer to him. AGC is working.

[@tacticalchef3369]

I keep smashing my left heel on the height adjustment knob rather than the differential lock. I know I will pulling that off sooner than later.

[@kirkhilts2918]

Paul, here's a million dollar idea, Fab a hst cooler, that could be plumbed in..... Eliminate the fan?

[@7863348]

I have been working on something 😉

[@waynesheffield7011]

"easy to make"... if you have the tools to do so. Are you going to start making this? I know mine is frozen, but I don't worry about it since I don't use it. But... I'd like them to work properly.

[@bobblack3870]

I appreciate the tips. WD-40? I know that the WD40 corp must be excited to see an endorsement, but in my experience that is not the best rust solvent. Use that to lube your door hinges. If you have rust issues, I highly suggest PB Blaster (PBB). Even 'Liquid Wrench Penetrant' is superior to WD-40 for rust. I have been amazed at PBB every time I use it, which is at least once a month here on my ranch.

[@7863348]

Thanks for your input. I guess I should have said “ use a penetrating fluid of your choice “. I’ve always said there are three things one should never talk about. Religion, politics, and petroleum products . Lol

[@bobblack3870]

@@7863348 - I don't mind mentioning what works for me, just in case there is an interest. I just like that your tips can save me from experimentation and sometimes lots of frustration.
