2013 Kubota BX25D upgrade mods walk around with Bro-Tech shields, tool box, wheel spacers, Ken's chain hooks, Led work lights all around, tow hooks, tie down hooks,
Corey, The PVC chain holder in the front and side are very nice holders for a 20ft. Chain. Easy to make if you don't prime an paint them. Four nuts and bolts holds them on just fine.
Love the tractor! I have a BX25 myself and I'm close to putting the same cab on it. My only question is how did you attach those brushes around all the levers? And what kind/ where'd you get them. I've looked online and there are so many different choices, I have no idea what to do/use. Thanks!
Bryan Pepin Take levee Covers off, hot glue brushes on. Look for door brushes that you put on the bottom of doors. If I did it again I would put two brushes in per lever, on on each side.
Your tractor is awesome!!! I just bought a BX25D last week and now after seeing yours I realize how much cooler it can be. Thanks for the video. Bleed Orange
MrRowdy1974 , thanks for the comments. For summertime work just take the 2 doors off and the back wall off and you have all the air that you will need in a roof over your head
Would love to see you join the "Kubota tractor and equipment" group on Facebook. There are over 4000 member all who own or love Kubotas and I know you would have a great audience to share all the mod ideas you've made. I'm simply just a fan of your tractor mods and just wanted you to know about the group.
Roger Evans Nothing is hot in the summer if you take off the doors in the back window and just leave the roof on your nice and cool and have some shade in the winter it's very warm when you turn your heater on and you don't have the snow blowing in your face as for noise I always wear ear protection because I didn't insulate my cab what sound deadening dampening material
t33jetman You were correct no problem at all I even had to dig thru hard clay. When I pulled up with it the neighbor's said oh that's cute by the end of the day they were shocked. This tractor is a brute. I brought it home waxed it and put it in the barn. I'm was so proud of her .
Hi there, just bought a cab for my Kubota bx2380 and I live in a very cold part of Canada. The cab is great but there are holes underneath around pedals and in PTO shifter area. I love your shift boots and door sweep to cover the holes. Where did you get the shift boots?
I have a big job for my BX25.. I'm going to dig my holding tank at the lake it's 10ft,long x 7.5ft wide x 5.5 deep I thinks its going to take a bit but I don't think it will not have a problem. What do you think? Thanks Randy
Really interested in your "toolbox" addition by Bro Tek. I have a Grand L 3540 and was hoping it would fit, however when I emailed Bro Tek, they said it would not fit and suggested I make my own. I'm wondering if you could send me some detailed pics of how the tube mounts to the brackets so that I can try to replicate the design? Thanks! Thomas
Awesome set up, where did you get your light bar from and how much was it please. I don't have the cab yet but maybe in a couple of years I will. I would have to mount the light bar to the top of the ROPS. Thanks for sharing the awesome video.....mike
Could I ask you for the model of your Curtis cab, the BX25 units I have found have a canvas fabric rear partition instead of the steel and glass unit you have, Thanks much.
The dipper arm on the floor, was damaged trying to pull a large tree that was stuck in a hill. Do no use backhoe to pull with, just use it to dig with. I have full insurance on my tractor which paid for the repairs.
Hi t33jetman: Do you remember which bully bolt on step is in video. Think have it down to pair for $33 or single for 39 from amazon but was wondering how you attached to running board? $39 has a flat top looks like
Hi Pat, Here is where I purchased my "Bully" step, cost was $24.00. www.tractorsupply.com/en/store/bullyreg%3B-aluminum-side-step-black-single-step I used grade 8 nuts and bolts, drilled the hole bigger and , attached it to the frame on the left side of tractor, some filing to the top to make it fit.
William Jackson Hi t33/will See you are on tractorbynet so sent e-mail via private msg there. Guess should have said talon and not falcon oh well still part of a bird
Were did you get your sweeps for your control levers? Also under the seat is a large opening that lets in a lot of air, did you cover that as well? Thanks, Roger Karstofsky
Roger Evans The wheel spacers give the tractor a wider stance to help prevent rollover also the wheels are loaded with negative 20 degrees antifreeze to help lower the center of gravity which helps in rollover situation
kubota makes a reliable products plus prices are less then newholland and deere plus newholland and deere doent give any room to do any add ons of extra features wich kubota does
All your mods or whatever you calling it are totally unecessary. Totally ridicolous. All those lights and reflectors and switches and tow hooks my goodness its only 25hp tractor one size bigger than a riding mower. That thing has more hooks and lights then a cat 988 front end loader. It must be some type disease u have kinda like a hoarder but the only thing is u got everything u can think of and your ready for anything LMFAO KEEP UP THE GOODWORK LOVE YOUR VIDEOS
KUBOTA tee Send email to t33jetman@embarqmail.com I will send you Ltd of pics of the bracket I made. Easy to do, 2 metal arms, bolts and nuts, pvc pipe and end caps , and you are done.
That Curtis cab looks warm and effective. Your mods give me lots of ideas, thanks for sharing your improvemnts. Good video.
Corey,
The PVC chain holder in the front and side are very nice holders for a 20ft. Chain. Easy to make if you don't prime an paint them. Four nuts and bolts holds them on just fine.
Very nice custom work! Wheel spacers are great for stability and they look good to..
Andrew,
The "BULLY" step measures 9 1/2in.
Purchased at "TSC".
I used harden nuts and bolts
Great setup I wish I popped for the hard doors and back glass. For airflow I have to take my door off.
great stuff! can you please tell me which size bully steps you bought, looking to do the same. Thanks, great video!
Ken,
No problem, because your hooks just work! Use them everyday with no problems.
Excellent video! I love all those additions you made. Where did you say you found that diamond plate covers for the undercarriage?
The buttons are from "Curtis Cab" it is their overhead console, you can find it on ebay also.
Sheild on bottom is from " Bro-Tek" , www.bro-tek.com
I like the pvc tool box I want to make one for my bx to haul chains
Love the tractor! I have a BX25 myself and I'm close to putting the same cab on it. My only question is how did you attach those brushes around all the levers? And what kind/ where'd you get them. I've looked online and there are so many different choices, I have no idea what to do/use.

This machine is great! I have loaded my tires and it really makes a big difference. You will love this machine the more you use it
t33jetman I live in Ks do you think with the windows open and a fan in the summer I could keep the cab on?
Thanks Randy
MrRowdy1974 , thanks for the comments. For summertime work just take the 2 doors off and the back wall off and you have all the air that you will need in a roof over your head
Love the skid plate under the tractor, great idea!
don't go playing in the woods without one under you, also protect your front steering arms.
I live in the desert but yes, your right about not playing in the woods without it. I believe it also protects the fan blade as well right?
+Music Man yes it does. still can have fun it in the desert.
cat637d
the cab is from Curtis cab and it is listed on their website as an "all steel cab"

Mr rowdy
You should have no issues digging you hole with this tractor.
t33jetman You were correct no problem at all I even had to dig thru hard clay. When I pulled up with it the neighbor's said oh that's cute by the end of the day they were shocked. This tractor is a brute. I brought it home waxed it and put it in the barn. I'm was so proud of her .
Great to hear she did good.
Work her hard, clean your tool, and she will always be there for when you need her.

Thanks for the compliments
Hi there, just bought a cab for my Kubota bx2380 and I live in a very cold part of Canada. The cab is great but there are holes underneath around pedals and in PTO shifter area. I love your shift boots and door sweep to cover the holes. Where did you get the shift boots?
"AUTOZONE"
How do you use the backhoe do the back glass pop out
The rear glass is removable look for ALL my tractor videos
Cool cab
Nice work looks great .
That is one pimped tractor /nice!
Love the boots around the pedals. Where did you get them, are they from a car?
Beautiful tractor by the way
Mike Middelkoop , boots are shift boots for a car , can be purchased from any auto parts store.
I have a big job for my BX25.. I'm going to dig my holding tank at the lake it's 10ft,long x 7.5ft wide x 5.5 deep I thinks its going to take a bit but I don't think it will not have a problem. What do you think? Thanks Randy

Thomas
Hey William Jackson, Where did you get the cab for your BX25D?
Ordered from CURTIS CAB
I love all of this and want all of this for my own bx25D. that said. my question is, can you turn the seat around and use the backhoe inside the cab?
srjones100
Yes you can turn the seat around with the cab on but you have to take off the back window to do so no problem
Awesome set up, where did you get your light bar from and how much was it please. I don't have the cab yet but maybe in a couple of years I will. I would have to mount the light bar to the top of the ROPS. Thanks for sharing the awesome video.....mike
LED LIGHTS are from Ebay, TUFF brand, I get most of my parts off Ebay searches. Thanks for looking at the video.
All Lights are from "tufflights.com
Top bar is a 24 LED, 4000 LMS
Better to mount the Light bar UNDER the ROPS.....
Could I ask you for the model of your Curtis cab, the BX25 units I have found have a canvas fabric rear partition instead of the steel and glass unit you have, Thanks much.
What happened to that backhoe arm lying behind the kubota?
The dipper arm on the floor, was damaged trying to pull a large tree that was stuck in a hill. Do no use backhoe to pull with, just use it to dig with. I have full insurance on my tractor which paid for the repairs.
You may want to replace the heater valve with a 12 volt solenoid valve.
What's the price of this it's really nice
What is size shift boot, or supplier
AUTOZONE
Thank you for a source. How did you get boot over forward pedal.
Did the box on door with gloves come with the cab or did you add
does the rear of the cab open to use the backhoe?
Yes
Hi t33jetman: Do you remember which bully bolt on step is in video. Think have it down to pair for $33 or single for 39 from amazon but was wondering how you attached to running board? $39 has a flat top looks like
Hi Pat,
Here is where I purchased my "Bully" step, cost was $24.00.
www.tractorsupply.com/en/store/bullyreg%3B-aluminum-side-step-black-single-step
I used grade 8 nuts and bolts, drilled the hole bigger and , attached it to the frame on the left side of tractor, some filing to the top to make it fit.
t33jetman Thanx jetman Happy flying the falcon (af trainer)
Pat Rothlauf send me your email and I will send you pictures

William Jackson Hi t33/will See you are on tractorbynet so sent e-mail via private msg there. Guess should have said talon and not falcon oh well still part of a bird
Were did you get your sweeps for your control levers? Also under the seat is a large opening that lets in a lot of air, did you cover that as well?
Thanks,
Roger Karstofsky
Under the seat is a large rubber mat to block the air.
Sweeps are from lowes or order off Ebay
also why wheel spacers?
Roger Evans
The wheel spacers give the tractor a wider stance to help prevent rollover also the wheels are loaded with negative 20 degrees antifreeze to help lower the center of gravity which helps in rollover situation
t33jetman antifreeze an air?
I filled my tires with -20 degree antifreeze up to the air valve and the rest with air , look on line on how to do this very easy.
Where did you get the switch panel?
the switch panel is from Curtis cab. it is listed on their website as in assessory. you may be able to find one like it on eBay
Nice mods!!!
kubota makes a reliable products plus prices are less then newholland and deere plus newholland and deere doent give any room to do any add ons of extra features wich kubota does
Where did ya get that enclosure? How much ?
The cab is from "Curtis Cab", but you can only order from your dealer.
Expect to pay around $3500 - 4000 depending on options you pick for it.
Wolf moon :) LOL
