I have a set of turf tires that came off an L series. What sizes do you need?

Might also be good for someone that makes knives. It can be used to quench hot blades.

Yep, and I know that the serial is often the first thing Kubota corp asks for. They keep track of all of the equipment that is reported to them as stolen. If your dealer calls in for support on a stolen unit, Kubota will assist local law enforcement. I've heard stories of the owner being told...

Yeah, spitting the front to access the engine takes some nimble fingers. But you are right about how easy it is to work on these tractors. I love that there isn't much electronic. If it's right and tight and has oil, it's going to run. Power steering would be nice. I have the kit for it...

"At least this little tractor is relatively easy to get to stuff." Apparently you have not had a reason to remove the from axle or work on the front engine internals.. Sounds like a fun project. Let me know if I can help with anything.

I'd check around for a service update. A later manual for my L245 has a note to replace the old type oil used in the transmission with UDT and the next interval. If Kubota did that for a unit from 1977, I'd think they did the same for yours.

I've always understood that the patch is preferred over plugs and slime due to balancing considerations. Maybe I'm misinformed. Either way, I've got several plugs in my slow moving equipment and highway tires. The only problems I've had is when I've tried to plug a hole that was too large...

No labels or anything. Same box though.

I have a copy of the original bill of sale on my L245F, it gives the month and year it was imported - April, 1977. I have it because my Dad tracked it down through the selling dealer that happened to still be around. He was able to do that because Kubota corp keeps records of all units sold...

I've got new in box, Kubota factory painted filters sitting on the shelf in my work shop. Not sure how they got out into the wild, but they exist. We've all seen utility companies with customized implements. The extra valve is probably for something they removed before selling the unit. As...

Good point.

I'd start by using a light pressure washer, like at a car wash. That will knock any rust loose without doing damage. Then use muriatic acid from Home Depot let it sit for a while keeping the rusty areas wet. Then wash the tank throughly. If you have no rust and no pin holes, you should be...

My dad retired from Kubota Tractor service, 25 plus years, he wore several hats. I inherited from him a 1977 L245 that he saved from the scrap yard. It's a few months older than I am. He always used Kubota fluids 100% of the time, no matter what. Even in non-Kubota units, he swore by it...

These are easy to work on if your fingers are nimble enough. Your unit sounds like how I inherited my L245. I ended up removing the tank and using hot, medium pressure water to wash the gunk out. Then I acid etched the inside of the tank. Be prepared to find other problems. Afterwards I...

I do not specifically have those. These look to be very close, but are a different part number.

Sorry, no I don't have anything like that left. Few small parts and a bunch of manuals.

I've still got more of them, let me know if you need a set.

This is on my short list of things to do. I'm interested if it worked and how you did it and where you mounted the gauge. There is not much operator space these mid 1970's tractors. Thanks,

I still have 8 more sets.
