We should start a running thread that posts the ongoing rebates and offers by quarter or whatever monthly dates Kubota sets annually. When you come to the point of purchase, unlike the dealership, you come in blind. They know what has been and--if they've been doing it awhile you have to...

Check out the new YT Yanmars: YT2 and YT3. Wow, that is one ugly pair of tractors. What were their designers thinking?

Thanks Jack. Much appreciated.

1) Is the BX series category One or Zero on the 3PH? Also, the rear tires on B7100 are bigger than the BX series. 2) Do you have to stay in the B series to keep the same tire size? What kills me is that these BXs are decked out with every single thing you could ever need, even have more HP than...

Hi Till, I have a B7100 and am always considering putting a front loader on it. Can I ask why you bought the Woods years ago and then sold it quickly? Hoping it might save me some trouble. Thanks.

Be right back! Headed to Florida! Lol

I've been looking at some older posts and threads. It's fascinating how many people go from being an older-equipment owner to something newer or even brand-new. It makes sense because your first tractor is not always an ideal purchase but more like a getting your feet wet purchase. You study...

"The water lost probably escaped through the overflow tube." That's about the best thing I could've heard. The infrared thermometer is a great idea. At what temp, then, do you get concerned enough to shut it down or do something different? Thanks D2!

Brew and IM, thanks for the tips and ideas. My problem is right now it's nothing but land 20 minutes away and so I have no water hose, air hose, etc. Stuck using a brush and I'm also on a very wooden, formerly overgrown lot. After bush hogging, I have mowed it twice but it's a mix of grass...

D2, how would you go about testing the radiator? Will the water level drop at all over a few hours of normal use or does that indicate a slow leak? A big leak just wouldn't hold water but from your comments it doesn't sound like I should have lost 3 liters even as it purged water while...

D2, in refurbishing the tractor I paid $450+ for a brand new OEM Kubota radiator with new upper and lower hoses. I paid $150 for the OEM Kubota "black box" and the additional $150 for six small pieces of mounting hardware. Total investment of almost $800 because I'm generalizing the numbers...

Ran it about four hours cutting grass with one 15 minute break. Thought I'd punctured the grill the way steam came rolling out but it was just overheating through the vent tube. Let it sit an hour and removed the radiator cap. Took a 2 liter bottle of water like it was nothing, plus one third of...

Twomany, the most basic answer to this is that there is an original Kubota orange used on tractors before about 1985-90. After that, the brighter "Orange II" was introduced. Check out the articles by "Service Dept. Vic" off the home page.

I won't have access to my tractor for about a week. But after that I will be happy to get you the dimensions.

Could someone give me an idea of how much a temp. gauge would cost to install and how hard it is? If you don't have one, would a tractor just started dumping water or what? What immediate damage is done or is it minimal once it cools down. Seems like this might be a gauge to have. Thanks
