FEL are definitely invaluable. I bought my well-used B7100D with a FEL about a year ago for $4300, the going rate. But now, the going rates is 2x! Inflation perhaps, I don’t know, just glad I bought mine when I did, even though I have about $1000 extra into it. and like you discovered, this...

Update to my previous thread, since I split the tractor again… Backstory: pplate finger snapped and lodged between the housing and flywheel. Before this, clutch worked as it should. I replaced pplate, TO bearing, and seals. Not much details in the WSM, so I used a parts diagram. Flywheel...

Every time I change fluids in anything…the older I get…the bigger the mess I make! I swear if it’s a liquid safety discharging out the drain, I will find a way to miss the landing at some point. Needless to say, now fluid changes have been delegated to my son.

Maybe….maybe not.

Don’t try to guess the fitting types. Mine had a few different fitting types. Find your nearest hydraulic pump/hose supplier and show them what you have. They will set you up correctly, the first time. And ask them how tight to make them.

No, No, I read it in numerous fluid dynamic text books. Ask any valve manufacturer, they will say get a valve that closely matches your system. Why? An oversized valve can and does do strange things. For example, an oversized valve can cause erratic and unstable movements. Why? Because...

Just to point something out, the B7100 hydraulic pump is rated at 3.6 gpm. Your valve is rated at 11 gpm. Mine is 8 gpm, the lowest I could find without breaking the bank. I’ve read that an overly rated valve can cause some wonky things.

On my B7100D, the rear most port on the block connects to Port C on my controller. Like Oldhokie said, this powers the three point. Hence, the name Power Beyond, it sends power beyond the loader to the 3 pt. Port C is where you should have a power beyond adapter. They are very small and you...

Not to jump on anyone’s toes, but here’s how mine connects.

🍿 You got this!

Let us know if the seal kit works. I kept my Kubota OEM controller and thought about fixing it and selling it.

I just replaced mine with Prince MB21BB5C1 Directional Control Valve, Monoblock, Cast Iron, 2 Spool, 4 Ways, 3 Positions, Double Acting Cylinder Spool, Spring Center, Straight. It’s rated at 8 gpm and included the power beyond plug adapter. On Amazon for $175 with shipping. Make sure you get...

I recently replaced my stock control valve with an aftermarket unit. The stock unit functioned, but leaked. I am thinking about rebuilding it and selling it. Is there a market for this OEM unit?

Here’s how I tackled my injection pump…. Laminated and studied a copy of the injection pump parts schematic before hand. I snapped lots of before, during and after photos. I counted the number of threads needed to remove everything related to the pump assembly. Thoroughly cleaned the area...

I will get that posted this week.

I agree, it’s not just “let's take it apart and toss it backtogether kinda of thing”. That would be foolish. As I said, I was extremely anal about the process. I don’t have the equipment to accurately measure the flow rates, but a pre and post fountain test shows vast improvements. Before...

If my tractor was used to make $$, I would definitely let the pros handle. When I owned my business, I never touched any of the vehicles…they all went to the shop.

A microscope…now that’s getting detailed!
