Hey folks. Been awhile since I've visited, glad to see this place is still around.
I have a 1994 L3300. It's old and tired but serving me well enough for now. This weekend, I had a mishap with a hidden T-post - it was deep in some brush and bramble, and even though I was leading with the loader, managed to puncture my radiator as I was backing out (I think my loaded pushed it down, then it tilted back up enough for the front axle to catch it and direct it straight through the fan shroud and through the rad).
So I started looking around online, and, the part number appears to be T0070-16000. $1100 or so is a lot to throw down though.
I was hoping to see if any alternate Kubota (or any, really) radiators would fit. I don't push this tractor hard at all (no plowing, no snow removal, maybe a couple hours of use per week in the summer, mostly mowing fields).
I found TC020-16000 which says it's for the L3400 (among other models). I however can't get any good photos of this radiator, so I can't begin to tell if it'll fit. Dimensional-wise it's just a little smaller and a little less fins per inch. The main inlet and outlet appear to be in the correct spots, but that's all I can tell. This one is appealing cos I can find several versions of it online at various shops, for $250-$300!
If that one wont work, does anyone know any others that may fit? If I have to pony up $1100, well, so be it, but, I'd really rather not right now if I can help it.
