the dupont color code for the kubota blue W8877 UAD http://www.tractorpartsinc.com/kubota_enamel_tractor_paint_1065_ctg.htm this aftermarket site has bota blue spray cans for $7 a can LRP

IMHO the CEO on north american kubota should have his head examind. 2% of the millions that is spent on advertiseing would let them sell paint competively and people could aford to keep there tractors looking new and that is the best advertiseing there is . he could take lessons from the big...

placti-kote #T-31 spray can is bright orange and looks like the bota orange to me at 1/4 of the cost. does anybody know the the plati-kote # for the bota blue. TIA LRP

the previous owner had cut the black/white wire going to the glow plugs and had a wire direct from the batt to a starter button on a cord. i checked the glow plug indicator and it was open. the wire was .037 dia and looked like nichrome wire. i happen to have a salvaged dryer heating element and...

i tapped in the banjo oil fiting bolt on mytractor to raise the snowplow. that was the easy part. return oil should be submerged to minimize foaming. while i was waiting for the reverse gear, i put a peice of well greased aluminum sheet under the spot i wanted to drill and tap. i then magnatized...

i would be interested in hearing from other people anywhere, to give there location, and the cost of the reverse gear for the L1500 and the L175 tractor. i will post a pic of the invoice what i paid for my reverse gear TIA for participation. Louie

. reflecting back, if i was to do it again. i would push the reverse shaft forward first and try to remove the o-ring that is just behind the locking grouve. that o-ring makes the job hard as there is 2 bushings in the reverse gear and there is a space between them. good luck. did u see the...

the fellow that had the reverse gear for $79, in arrowood AB. is this in alberta or alabama?? thanks. Louie

thanks for the reply Mr K. what i want to know is how can a dealer in AB alabama i asume can sell a reverse gear for $79 and i have to pay $320 in Canada. thats 4 times as much. that in my book is criminal. i hope that this gets forwarded to the head office and someones pee pee gets slapped.

the title says it all. whent to wally world this AM and poked in the oil filter boxes until i found one that the threads were recessed in 5/16 in from the rubber seal. this allowed me to build the adapter whithout modifying anything on the tractor. that means i can remove 1 bolt and put the...

are u Kubota dealer??? thanks LRP

IMHO the reverse gear is a design flaw. the reverse gear barely meshes in front and the back part is also barely meshed. i noticed that when u put it in reverse, u can go past the dedent notch in the shifter shaft about 1/8 in. sooooo, i don,t want to do this again. i made a auto reverse lock...

i too changed the reverse gear without sliting the tractor as described in an ealier post. the hard part is geting the oring seal through the gear. i made a little tool woth a scrapt peice of pipe. i threaded a 1/4 in hole in the end and kept puting in longer bolts to push the shaft through...
