I have lost one of my check chains; actually an enclosed turnbuckle with fittings.
My check chains joined the swivel plate below the PTO, to the lower link inboard of the lifting rods fixing. The measurement is about 8" (200mm) overall ie. from the swivel plate hole to the lower link hole. Can anybody tell me the part number for this linkage? However if the lifting rods should be fixed to the innermost hole of the lower link then maybe I had them fitted incorrectly in which case the check chain assembly would measure about 13.25" overall (340mm) so I would need the part number for that. I attach a picture of the remaining linkage but note the shackle attaching to the swivel plate is not very clear but just showing above the PTO shroud.
Help appreciated as finding the right parts in the UK is not so easy.
Thanks in advance, Nick

What you have doesn't appear to be an original kubota turnbuckle, so the OEM part may not work for you anyway. You might want to search the internet for "aftermarket turnbuckle" or something similar.

I don't think that it is original. The lift arms have been changed- the factory arms are straight, and they should have tabs welded on them, closer to the ends, where the turnbuckle stabilizers would attach.
You could relocate the side link to the holes used by the turnbuckles, and use the holes further back for new turnbuckles. They are inexpensive; once you know your operating length, they can be easily found on websites like Weavers Compact Tractor, or Ebay.

You may have to access Kubota UK but here is a link to the parts list at Kubota USA.

It lists the individual parts for the turnbuckle assembly.

it's original. I have one hanging on a peg (I think) from days back off of a B 6200..
Please snap a pic, because I have never seen ones like that for an older B series.

Thanks everybody for your answers. Russell, Kubota Pad ask me for an ID but I cannot see the joining procedure?
D2Cat, I did put a picture with the initial query. The link length centre to centre is approx 9.5" assembled.
I thought finding something suitable would be easy in the UK but it isn't! I may be able to make one up using an open style turnbuckle with various links added so will look into that when I visit my ag. supplier. It was they who requested the part number!

The factory part# for the turnbuckle is 96316-05580, LH clevis 66706-65320, RH clevis
66706-65310. This is what you will get if you order something from Kubota. See attached image of the back of my B7200. The three above part numbers are the same that's on my machine, and are used on a bunch of older B-series. The turnbuckles are fully closed and measure exactly 12'' from end to end.


It appears the factory Kubota parts are going to be too big for your aftermarket arms.....

That link will not work as he is in the UK.

See if Kubota.com has a link to the UK parts list.

Well I looked, but with my organization it wasn't where I thought it was. I had a B6100 and maybe they were different. But.... I found this. Original B6100 PTO dust cover. I taped the attaching screws to it, but on one side the tape gave up and it's lost.
