    What would you replace? Trans Gears

    Yup, I'm with NIWolfman on that too. If you're changing, change it all. The gears will have to run in and reface each other in doing so. That means the new gears will just get all beat up by an old one which is already worn both on the faces and edges. Wolfman also has it right for the...

    Daily Chuckle

    Yeah, as a Board owner and moderator for years, I understand this completely. We all kind of gather around together due to mutual interest in Kubota's but becoming friends, there's a tendency to share stuff that really isn't board friendly. Yahoo used to have 'groups' for this purpose and they...

    Daily Chuckle

    I dunno, mounting a cool repeating nerf gun on my L3200 ROPS top in a mini turret would be kind of fun to play with.... Nail some squirrels, the kid if he gets too close, my neighbors as I drive by mowing... hmmm... fun! :D

    Fuel Jelling or Gelling :)

    Re: Fuel Jelling You can also get a magnetic style heater (or a pad style) and put it on the tank along with the block heater. This will prevent gelling also.

    Kubota d1005 not starting....fuel timing?

    The new injector pump adds some variables. That was probably a step too early in the process. If you marked the old pump and gear before you removed it, you might try reinstalling the old pump and actually testing the injectors yourself, at least visually. If you didn't mark it, then don't...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    To is covered by all the other forums. There is no forum to cover what we are doing "on" our Kubota's (projects, whatever). So, I'll reiterate my request to have a new forum created to cover the things we do with our Kubota's. That could also have tutorials on how to do certain functions with...

    REAL Snow Removal!!!

    That is just too cute! However, in scale that would've been the blizzard to end all blizzards! The snow was consistently over the trains height!

    Soot solution help needed

    If it's contained, I'd think a slurry/pump out processes would work, even a pressure washer after it's mostly pumped out. The usual suspects for oil solvents combined with water should break it up, Tide concentrate, Dawn, Denatured Alcohol, are relatively mild and work well with water. The...

    OEM or after market Hydraulics Valve for LA211??

    Common question... http://www.surpluscenter.com/Hydraulics/Hydraulic-Valves/Joystick-Valves/ You do need to know a bit about hydraulics to know which is best for your unit. I think anything in the 8-14gpm range would work on your tractor but I don't know the output of the pump. Loader, I'd...

    What would you replace? Trans Gears

    The faces actually look pretty good, the edges are what appear to be worn. So, what you've lost here is some power transmission ability. Looks like someone has had fun grinding the gears (lack of a proper operating clutch). You could continue to run with the gear you have, it would likely...

    Post driver or auger?

    Not a problem Stu, love to help. The T posts are an inexpensive way to run fencing around large ranches and such. I doubt England has many of those left. Here there are still Ranches/Farms passing 10,000 acres. You can't fence in ranges of those sizes with standard/beauty fencing unless you...

    Fuel pump failure L3800

    I got the 5 year warranty on my L3200. I want it warrantied as long as I am making payments on it. There could be a bad batch of fuel pumps out there. Kubota likely doesn't make them but sources them from a third party. I'd contact a Kubota rep if your dealer won't represent you. The two...

    regeneration danger

    Actually Sheepfarmer, now we get the worst of all worlds (and this is probably what they were heading for). According to those links even the 74hp and below engines are going to be saddled with both regen AND DEF. So, cold weather? Forget about running your tractor until you thaw out the DEF...

    Anybody remember?

    Oddly Skeets, there's a fundamental logic to that 'feeling'. If you are a good person you do good things, therefore, the longer you live the greater good is done. If you are a person of dubious character and ill intent, your life is the sum total of misery you feel and inflict upon others...

    Got tipsy today!

    Keep the center of your bucket at or below the center of your axles unless absolutely necessary. That's about 6" or less of daylight under my loader bucket (LA524). Little to no effect on side to side CG at that point.

    regeneration danger

    None taken, couldn't agree more. This state is pretty much all the way down the road to whacko-ville. Yes, since I work for Cal Fire on a regular basis, I've had the regen woes told to me by more than one staff member, lots in fact. They all want the new trucks bundled up and sent back to sit...

    regeneration danger

    I was laboring under the idea that DEF was always being injected into the exhaust stream, not as part of a regen process. Could it be different from the larger motored rigs to smaller pickups and cars? The large international trucks that our Cal Fire service uses out here has the regen...

    M110 left rear wheel locked on cold start up

    Hmmm, didn't know it had wet brakes, that does change things. I can't imagine the linkage causing a lock up unless it's in a parking brake condition, then it might not release without warming up the linkage. Could a really cold bearing cause something like this? Maybe water in the fluid...

    Anybody remember?

    Well, these thugs all live off of fear. If you do the best you can to prepare for whatever may be, you should be sleeping fine at night and not give them any power to them for their fear tactics. If you pass on, you pass on. It might be painful, tragic or downright scary, but don't give in to...
