    Sticker SHOCK

    If you think that's bad, just try buying an engine oil filter for a piston-powered aircraft. Prices have doubled and even tripled, IF you can get a filter at all. Orders in early May were given late August delivery dates. Those delivery dates have since slipped to "maybe in September". My...

    Wanted: B7500 belly mower

    The B7100 is a totally different attachment style than that of the B7500. For the B7500 you're looking for something like an RCK54-24 or an RCK60-24. Good luck in your search. Pricing on used Kubota attachments seems to have gone through the roof.

    Any Kubota mowers with "suspension" for rider?

    What part of NB are you mowing? I've done my share of those "farm fields turned into lawn" in Grand Falls and I understand how bone-jarring the ride can be. You haven't mentioned anything about the kind of lawn, other than its roughness. If you've got a moment it would be helpful for others...

    Tractor shed lemons to lemonaid

    If it weren't for spruce no houses would be built. Spruce makes up about 80% of current dimensional lumber products in Canada.

    Wonder what my friend did....directly over his driveway.

    That airplane doesn't do what you think it does. It's a very unique airplane indeed, operated by Transport Canada for Environment Canada (formerly Atmospheric Environment Services). The aircraft is equipped with a very interesting sensor suite. If you examine the belly of the airplane you'll...

    Mowing Grass - Help With My Next Mower, Please

    Thanks folks for your helpful replies. With respect to diesel vs gas, well, that's a choice rather than a need. With four diesel tractors already in the fleet I'd like to reduce my jerry can fleet! (Yes, four diesels... one of which is not a Kubota so it doesn't get mentioned much here.)...

    Mowing Grass - Help With My Next Mower, Please

    Thanks for "butting in" - it's not butting in at all if one helps by providing useful information! We're in a bit of a pinch with respect to Country Clipper dealers - I drive past one Kubota and two Cub Cadet dealers before I get to the ONLY Country Clipper dealer within 150 miles. I really...

    Mowing Grass - Help With My Next Mower, Please

    Thanks for the helpful comments, folks. Coming back to my original post, the use of any of my B-series tractors to mow is simply not practical. With all the tree branches etc the B series with a MMM would only mow the big open areas, leaving probably a full third of the lawn for me to have to...

    Mowing Grass - Help With My Next Mower, Please

    I'll start off by saying I hope my wife doesn't read this forum... :oops::LOL: I'm spoiled by having multiple B-series tractors, two of which are equipped with the hardware necessary to mount a mid-mount-mower (MMM) under them. One of them, the B2410, has been used extensively for grass...

    Assistance Request - Finding Compatible Quick Hitch for B7510

    Thanks for your input, Rusty. Yes, my "other" tractor has the B2733A. I still haven't found what the B2741C fits. Alas, that particular hitch has sold so at this point it has become purely a curiosity question.

    Assistance Request - Finding Compatible Quick Hitch for B7510

    I've come up empty in my searches so, once again, I'll reach out to the great mind trust here at OTT! I have a B7510 with a very old quick hitch - its label is missing. I suspect it might even have been from an earlier model like a B2400. It's a pure bolt-on quick hitch. I'm looking to move...

    B2781B -51" Snowblower PTO drive shaft info and potential problem

    Ummm... I hate to sound like a curmudgeon but I believe if I've read your post properly the issue is not with the B2781B blower but with the subframe mount. Or have I got this all wrong? What I think I'm reading is that your shaft between the mid-pto on your tractor and the aft end of the...

    Recommended Kubota Online Parts In Canada ? - Looking for snowblower shear pins BX2822A

    The post hole auger is a completely different application than the snowblower auger shafts. Given the cost of the auger gearbox it just ain't worth taking a chance. I've seen a threaded bolt used in this location and it produced some rather ugly results.

    If you were to give an idea of where you are located I'm sure folks here might give you some guidance on which dealers in the area are decent to deal with. With respect to the comment about using any old Grade 5 bolt, please, please disregard that comment. I've done the analysis and found the...

    Info Request: F2400 & F2450A Snow Blower

    I've been looking at an F2400 with nearly 2900 hours on it (4wd model). It has an F2450A front mount snow blower. I'm trying to get a handle on how old the machine is, what its strengths and weaknesses are and what sort of price point might be reasonable for it. It also has a front mount...

    B2410 Squeak from 4wd Prop Shaft When Cold

    The more I think about it the more I think it's just the driveshaft cover... I'll be taking advantage of your advice as soon as things here warm up a few degrees.

    Attaching LA402 to a B2710

    Important Note... When installing the return line 080/070 onto fitting 010 you will be in for a wet surprise if you have the hydraulic fluid all the way up on the transmission. Drain some off - not much, a couple of quarts, to ensure the fluid level is plug that's in the side of the...

    Kubota Detent Float Kit.... and extra parts???

    Out of curiosity, what did they ding you for that float detent kit? I have one on a newer tractor, a B7510, that no longer holds in detent and am bracing for what the dealer will ask for it. As a word of support, the detent on my B2410 valve is getting sticky. I drilled a hole in the end cup...

    B2410 Squeak from 4wd Prop Shaft When Cold

    Thanks for the good ideas. I should have mentioned this squeek is present when the tractor is jacked up and the front wheels are spun by hand. I'm pretty sure the sound is coming from the prop shaft or its cover, but for the life of me I can't localize it closer than that.
