Well after this clutch issue has been holding up the entire project, I finally decided to remedy the problem and just remove the gusset that the clutch pedal was hitting. I hate to go that route but I see no reason 1. why it is there and 2. why it is all of a sudden in the way. First I tried...

That's correct, I looked into all the similar models to see if any one model had a battery tray available and I noticed the L 185 had a different set-up, and correct again on the little metal nubs sticking out. Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk

Try this............... Standard looking battery support items, probably available at local auto store. I do not think there is a plastic tray, but mine will have one when I am done building it.

Worked on my Battery tray Replacement, Went from a small cash box almost to a real life Kubota Battery Tray (still a few steps to go), $34.00, a little elbow grease and time. Way too many photos to upload here, but this is the basic procedure.... Started with this; Tore it apart and then...

True I probably could make it pretty easily but sometimes if the cost versus time outweighs the time then it's easier just to buy it. Like over $100 for the two brackets that mine is missing, that's why am looking at alternatives. Right now I'm in the middle of re-creating a battery tray that I...

Re: Tallbald's L185 "Orange Crush" project fix-up Sorry for some reason I had you associated with a L185, forgot you had a L1501. But if you do have the part number for that bracket it may help.

Re: Tallbald's L185 "Orange Crush" project fix-up Darren, I priced out the correct L175 brackets around $100.00 for both :eek: Can you give me this dimensions for your seat mount..... And I could not find this part in my L185 parts manual, any idea of the part number?

FANTASTIC work, I do not know how I missed this thread until now? :confused: I hope mine is 1/2 as beautiful as yours when complete.

Here is a link to a work shop manual, with wiring diagram.... Manual I also have a Parts Manual I can email to you PM me your email address.

Thanks Russell, this will be a great help. (pictures are perfect) :)

I will have to get the correct brackets, and then measure between them to confirm, got to say the 185 seat mount looks pretty involved compared to the 175

I sent you a PM with a link to all the sticker info.

Do not know, mine did not have the stock brackets or seat, had some mickey mouse thing.... The front brackets do not seem to be stock, the holes are not drilled / spaced evenly where the seat connected, the rear bracket seems the same as yours. The L175 parts book shows both a LH and RH bracket

Yes it is also on mine, Thanks for coming to the rescue again with the bumper dimensions :) Still can not wrap my head around that Radiator Decal at $25+ Does not look to be gold inlayed! :mad:

Curious, what is that bracket for?

WOW, $253 for a L1500 (L175) from Colemans and Messicks BUT $163 delivered from Cypress (current exchange rate) https://www.stavros-savva-co-ltd.com.cy/product/kubota-assy-seat-l1500-l2000/

Both I would prefer original but I've already looked into buying a metal battery tray and adding the angle brackets and Hood attachment points

It would appear that a couple of key parts for my project are "discontinued" from Kubota, the most important is the battery support or tray, mine is shot.... I was given a price of $106.20 from the dealer, and about to hold my nose and order it, then I got the news it was NLA. I was using...

Got the rear end painted, before the weather comes in...... And ready for the weather, just in case, which looks to be early! Now time to clean up the shop a bit.

I agree it is beautiful, one day mine will be back together, and hopefully just a sweet looking, One Day! :)
