Honestly.... I all depends on how much you like your your Kubota and how long you expect to keep it. My neighbor, who happened to be a petroleum engineer, that has since recently passed , always told me, "Life cycle longevity of a machine is directly proportional to the quality of maintenance...

Should not be a problem at al for finish mowers. The issues usually arise if one starts using the finish mower to cut tall grass fields or worse yet as a brush hog....:rolleyes:

Good Luck on finding the subframe linkage. I have a B2410 of the same vintage and wanted to put a a loader on it.... could get the loader.... but finding a subframe was not going to happen.

Food for Thought: Neighbor two doors down uses starting fluid on his relatively new JD compact.... I heard the BOOM 5 houses down and we ain't close together. upon inspection, from what was left, it literally exploded the head and according to his dealer, really screwed up a bunch of stuff in...

Well... I have a B2410 2000 vintage. I needed front tires so I went to Kubota. Tires discontinued.... like not being manufactured any more. I have a 4 wheel drive where the back tires have to work in synchrony with the front tires. Kubota left me hanging without a straight swap out option...

My friend.... that is some fine work!

You'd fit in with us so PERFECT!!! Bush-Fix do it yourself with what you have to work with. You would make a great West Virginia Hillbilly.... old school like me! I was born and raised in a holler at the foot of the Appalachian Mnts.

Operator's legs were pinned and had to be rescued. This took place in Cecil County, Maryland yesterday morning. He was lucky!

Help me out here guys on the sequence of events that led up to the fried wires up front. first life was good.... all was working until the PTO shaft severed and began flopping around.... the sparks it generated spinning at 540 RPM could certainly ignite the bone dry sawgrass in that immediate...

Merry Christmas all.... and really, let's strive for peace on Earth.

plowed some snow today and noticed this. Thought I'd share.... Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.

Holy defecation Batman!

The only thing I can add is check out the old seal versus the new seal. Did the same seals on my 2000 B2410 a couple three years ago and to my surprise ( and it was a SURPRISE ) the new seal was one piece and the old seal was a two piece unit. Once I figured out there was a "race" on the spindle...

This happened during a 6 hour mow. I always give the tractor and attachments a visual look see BEFORE I begin work. Whatever happened was catastrophically acute.... no warning in the pre-mow check.
