Just a suggestion, but I switched the Wheel Spinner from the right side of the steering wheel to the left side. Allows using left hand to drive and right to work loader joystick which proved to be much more convenient. One of the best accessories I've ever added to any of the 3 different Kubotas I've owned over the years. Just beyond convenient!!

Never knew you did some of these mods. I guess I'm gonna have to look into trying some on the B2301. Thanks for the recommendations. I think I'll check them out, though I've heard of some of them before. Of course this goes without saying but yet again another great video that was well worth watching, Jon. Thanks for putting out content. We'll always be here to watch it. Take care, and God bless.

I got a 2018 LS XG3025. I've completely abused it for 2 years now. I've done hardcore stuff with it that no one should ever do with a tractor its size and it has not given me any issues whatsoever. This tractor is a beast. It outperforms my dad's Kubota L3600.

You got itvright talking about Paul Short. He has actually made a video or 2 for me to help me out. The basic soldering video was made exclusivly for me. They took time out of their already extremely busy because of his business and helped another youtuber out. I realize he cant do that any more, so I cherish those times. I have gotten quite a few mods from Paul and Kathy ovef the years. Best $$ I ever spent. I have a few of them in my latest video, but have added more since then. I bought a brand new bx1880 back in April. They even allowed me to call her, yeah her, "Mini Killer". Killer and Lil Killer needed a lil Sister. They are truly 2 of the most AWESOME people around and I hope one day to meet them in person. Conversations on phone and sending messages and emails are 1 thing, but a 1 on 1 in real life, OH MAN! Thay would be so freakin AWESOME.

Fantastic fabricator and great people. Keep on tractoring!

WD40 works great as a degreaser, don't spray it directly on as you don't want it getting inside the fitting. Rather spray some on a rag and wipe excess grease away.

I'd of put the LED strobes on the top of the ROPS facing both front & rear. My BX-2380 turn signals came mounted on the top section of the ROPS. IMHO strobes need to be as conspicuous as possible for the benefit of the occasional, somewhat blind car drivers who can't drive in the snow when you're plowing or blowing snow.

Great video. You haven`t had a problem with the tie rod boots yet? Tore the boot on my B series pushing brush on the first day of ownership. I used duck tape to repair it because Kubota showed you could only get it with the tie rod assembly. Paul short showed a mod using a new urethane boot .I ordered some from him for the "B" in hopes it would work on it . They work but are a little tight and they are tough compared to the original.Hope this helps if any one needs a great tie rod boot.

you should install a dimmer for when your on the edge of the road so you dont blind on coming cars. This is actually a huge problem. Everyone is trying to find the brightest lights they can for their equipment and i understand the need to see but people need to think about others.

You bring up a good point. I’ve always tried to be considerate to others and turn my bright lights off when cars are around. It would be nice if there was a automatic dimmer that only engaged when it senses headlights. My road is t very busy so it’s not a huge concern.

I am looking to get a 3 point hitch receiver soon. Any pros or cons for the style you have now vs the old style you used to use?
@ritterjon
@ritterjon 7 жыл бұрын
The biggest reason I got it was for the receiver hitch option which also meant I could use a cargo rack for my sprayer or quickly add ballast instead of hooking up another three point implement. I also like the way mine is constructed vs some of the others. Any hitch with a receiver is the way to go in my opinion. Best of luck. Thanks for watching. God bless.

I'm not 100% sure but I think I found it on eBay for less than $20. It's a great way to go if you plan to add multiple accessories. Keep on tractoring!

Jon :: you were saying you wish your mirrors were higher, why not take a piece of 1/4"aluminum flat bar or flat steel bar and cut it to the length you want your marriage to be in height.

That's something to think about, but I don't think it would look as nice. I'm trying to think of a system that would come around from the ROPS that would look somewhat decent. Might be a distant future mod. Thanks for watching and God bless.

Does any of the mods void the warranty on a new tractor? Just bought a BX2380. Love to do some mods, but don't want to mess with the warranty.
@ritterjon
@ritterjon 6 жыл бұрын
None of the mods I shown in this video would void your warranty. The only issue would be compromising the ROPS with the four holes I drilled for the lights. Many many mod ideas out there. Have fun!! God bless

I've been considering putting a light bar on my JD1025r. Have you got a link of the light bar you did purchase? There are so many that simply look cheap, then some that look just as cheap but cost a ton more. Thanks!!
@ritterjon
@ritterjon 7 жыл бұрын
Like I've said in a previous comment you really just gotta read the reviews people leave on those light bars. I bought mine on e-bay and yes there are a ton of options and most of them are great lights. Best of luck! God bless

I figured that particular mod was going to spark some interest. I think I'm going to have to do a follow up video just to answer it as it's a little difficult to explain. I wish I would have documented that auxiliary fuse box mod. Thanks for watching and stay tuned for the answer. God bless.
