Any suggestions for where to buy parts online?

[1971Corvette]

The nearest Kubota dealer is almost an hour from my house. Does anyone have suggestions for online stores with good pricing for Kubota parts?

Some of the best stocked OEM Kubota sites are :

https://www.messicks.com/vendor/kubota

and

https://www.colemanequip.com/parts/kubota-parts/

there are others too.

Call your dealer, he might send you what you require. Mine does all the time. Have an account there and he bills me monthly. UPS goes everywhere, so does Fed Ex. I don't consider an hour excessive. In fact for me, 50 miles, give or take is pretty close out here in 'flyover' country.

In addition to the OEM parts available from dealers like Messick's ( I have had good luck Messick's) I recently bought a top link from an Ebay vendor. When it arrived, I compared it closely to the bent original part. I'll be darned if I can see a difference. Even the paint match was dead on Kubota dark gray. It was made in India, but no surprise there, that's where are the foundries are these days. I would guess that the original part just might have come from there too! I will see if it holds up in use. It cost $80.00 delivered vs $105 plus shipping (maybe $117.00 all in)

the Ebay vendor is the eparts.shop

After you find your part numbers, I prefer to order from Lawn Eq. They sell kubota parts 10% off list. Ill admit Messick's has the best parts diagrams.

If you compare prices, you will find that Lawn Eq parts have the same price to the penny as Coleman Equipment has. Generally, Coleman's shipping is less than anyone else.

Whitetiger, you are correct. I've never found Kubota parts discounted. Like Stihl saws.

Whitetiger-D2Cat,

I attached an order I made earlier this year. Saved $20 on one bucket pin over Coleman EQ. It does appear their 10% markdown is not current now. I Don't know why, since it was for the past year(perhaps Corona). I have been ordering parts from all three of these companies for the past few years. Trust me D2cat, I was in as much surprise as you are in disbelief.

One other comment on using the online parts vs the local dealer...
If the part you need is heavy, the shipping from online may get excessively expensive but if you use the local dealer and their normal (weekly) shipping it should be free shipping.

The local dealer will charge you shipping if you want it quickly or don’t ask them to put it in their normal free shipping system.

My local dealer sells parts at roughly the same price as Messicks. I can usually get parts the same day and no shipping

anybody selling for less than list price ?
