    Impulse buy! Kubota L2900 GST

    Stick with a Kubota clutch if you can. Their parts always fit and usually last the life of the tractor unless the tractor is abused. When you get into aftermarket, you don't really save much money (if anything) and the quality isn't there. I have bought Napa filters in a pinch and paid MORE...

    Gaining oil

    Good luck and keep us posted! My experience in replacing the seal is that the outer wiper seal can be replaced with a little effort, but the problem is internally the high pressure seals were gone and would force oil out the external seal. Maybe you'll have better luck!

    Gaining oil

    Hydraulic oil (UDT) has a bit of a smell to it and when you put it on a napkin or paper towel will show up differently than diesel. Diesel smells different than UDT or oil and you should notice that the oil is thinner than expected. Again pull the dipstick and put a drop on a paper towel. If...

    Gaining oil

    I've helped out a few customers with older B tractors and it was their hydraulic pump failing. Replacing the seal does not fix the issue, the whole pump needs replacing. There is a chance you can tear down the pump and replace all of the internal seals and gaskets, but honestly once something...

    Shimming pressure release valve

    Just shimmed my B9200 with BF350 loader and LOVE the difference. I happened to have a spare .4mm Kubota shim so I threw that in there. I will be plumbing in my pressure gauge and shimming up to at least 2000# once I buy more shims. Ever since I installed my toothbar, the lifting and curl has...

    Where do you buy your parts/fluids?

    For online, Messics or Golden Eagle, just check each to see which shipping and price is more reasonable, sometimes one is way more than the other. I also use a dealer here in CT East PBE which has great prices and very polite staff. For those in NH, I highly recommend Townline Equipment which...

    B1550 Kubota 4wd HST for sale

    Sid, I can do some research but I suspect around $700 since that's about what it costs to send a car to the midwest.

    B7100 - Disconnecting high pressure line

    Tractor must be off (duh). Additionally if you are really concerned you can cycle your loader control valve in a circular motion which will release all pressure from the lines and system.

    Advice please! BX2360 (500 hrs) vs. B2400 (1,000 hrs)

    Like everyone said previously, 20 acres would benefit with an L, but if you're dead set on a smaller machine like BX or B, then DEFINITELY the B! I have 3 acres and use my B for mowing, logging, driveway maintenance, and general landscaping....I have used plenty of BX's and they're good for...

    B8200 Turf Tire Wheels

    I'm running 24x9.50-12 Carlisle on the front and I can get in and out of 4wd fine and the overall tire height doesn't seem much different than the 24x8.50's...and they're less than $100 shipped to your door with 4 ply rating (or was it 6?) and higher load capacity than the oem....I believe my...

    B9200 fuel leak

    Your fuel line could have a linear crack in it. Try replacing that cheap rubber hose.

    Horsepower advice

    Diesels love turbos. I would grab a cheap turbo off ebay, fab up some tubing and turbo that bad boy up to about 25-30hp. Way less work and money than installing a new motor or rebuilding. I believe you just need to richen your injector pump a little and monitor EGT's to make sure you don't...

    kubota m4900 hp increase

    They make factory turbos on similar motors if I recall. Rather than jump 7hp, why not jump 25+? You might be able to bolt on a turbo setup from a factory Kubota even.

    B6200hst slow hydraulics

    Quagmire, there are several brands like Wal-Mart and Tractor Supply that CLAIM to be compatible with Kubota UDT...however some of them smell and look completely different (while others appear to be identical at least from look and smell).. In all honesty, the amount of work you will get done...
