STOP! Have You Done This? - Kubota BX Brake Pedal Adjustment- Super Simple!!!

[@anthonytyler8627]

Yeah I did exactly what you said and came to KZbin before going to the manual. 🤣 Awesome video and instructions. Thank you!!

[@dalewun]

I was just looking at that pushrod on my new 1880 today and wondered what it was for… your video timing is perfect! Thanks!

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Good deal! Glad it was useful!

[@dwoodog]

Great video, I need to do mine. Knowing me I'll give the wheel well a quick power wash at the same time.

[@sethdunn4412]

Cool video - I've never checked my travel, but now I will. You know, on my BX1860 I use a shovel to go that last mile to lift the tire onto the studs, then tighten everything down.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Good idea!

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

Good "how to", Lucas. This will help a lot of DIYers. "No wheelies"...🤣🤣

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

🤷🏼‍♂️ He’s my boy. It has to be said! 😂

[@Gunshotglory]

😦 oh I’m way out of adjustment lol. I didn’t know the brake pedal went that high. Mine at rest without it applied is MAYBE 4” I didn’t feel like looking in the manual but I can always count on you to have made a video for whatever tractor question I had! 😂

[@Gunshotglory]

1050 hours and probably never been adjusted

[@michaelohara5703]

Great video!! My PB travel over 4 inches!!! on my 2680. I’m not strong enough either to lift my fluid tire in place… I did find it pretty easy to use a creeper & reach from the underside & not half to remove tire… yes I had to get up a few times to measure. I counted that as my workout for the day…….😊

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Nice work! I really didn’t even try to do it that way. Smart thinking. You have to do what works for you! 👊

Very helpful Lucas, thanks !👍🏻

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Thanks for the support!

Looks pretty quick and simple to adjust. I need to check mine since I'm over the 50 hour "break-in" on the tractor. The 50 hour service on the BX wasn't bad either, just lots of fluid to change...more of a hit on the wallet than anything...I think it took maybe an hour to change the engine oil/filter, fuel filters, and hydraulic fluid and filters....not too bad of a job, just messy...at least for me, an oil/filter change always requires dumping oil all over the place LOL. I still need to do the front axle, need to go over and get more hydraulic fluid first, I don't think I have enough left from the transmission/hydraulic system fluid change to do the front axle. Routine maintenance saves you a lot of down time in the future from wear and tear, and breaking things from lack of regular services and adjustments....spend a few minutes now doing the maintenance rather than several hours later fixing it...or worse waiting days, weeks, or months for the dealer to get to it to fix it.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Yeah, I thought the bottom fuel filter was the toughest part of that 50hr. I didn’t do my hydraulic fluid until 200. Just the filter. I also swapped the front axle fluid for gear lube. I think this is the second time I’ve adjusted my brake pedal. I’m at a little over 400hrs now…

[@wildbill23c]

@@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead Is there any difference in operating feel having gear oil in the front axle instead of the hydraulic fluid? Wonder if they do hydraulic fluid because its a bit thinner so it flows down into the portal axles quicker and easier? I haven't really decided yet which way to go with the front axle fluid, I've heard several say they switch to gear oil and I don't think I've ran across anyone saying they've experience any issues, but the manual does say you can use either.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

@@wildbill23c I couldn’t tell any difference at all. 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@wildbill23c]

@@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead Thanks. It would be nice to just use the gear oil, would save a 70 mile round trip to the dealership for UDT2 LOL.

[@smeefamily54]

Lucas: excellent info. Like you said, if you can see it on Utube.... That is how I get my info also. I am hands-on not book-on. The young guy wants to drive the BUG sooooo bad. Watch out that he does not turn it into a dune buggy. Take care and stay safe.

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Lol. My wife would have his hide! She loves her “powder blue” bug!

Great video I think ill do mine today

Thanks for watching!

Thanks Lucas I have to adjust my pedal to thanks for reminding me. Hey just checking if you watched our wheel dolly video I think 🤔 it will help next time you have to take off your wheel 🛞 😁👍🚜💨💨🍳

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

I don’t believe I have. I must have missed it. I’ll check it out. Thanks, Mitch!

[@RossOnTheLand]

Nice easy adjustment.. why do they put the adjustment nuts in such a hard place.. move it aft a bit would make it easier to adjust...

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

It’s an evil plan to get folks to let the dealer do it! 😂🤣😂 Thanks for watching, Ross!

You don’t have to the wheel off.
