    B8200HST-D steering box, replacement, compatability with other models?

    Well Gentlemen, we have liftoff!! The parts came in last night and looked identical, except that the shaft was 1 inch longer than the original. I did not let this deter me, I actually am looking forward to having an inch more for leg room under the wheel. It was a bit of a trick to get the...

    B8200HST-D steering box, replacement, compatability with other models?

    Parts are due here by the end of the day Tuesday, so I will probably attempt the repair on Wednesday. I'll take some pictures of old and new side by side and see where we are at. . .

    Nope, I'm going to call Coleman's today, although it did say 2-5 day lead time on getting the parts in stock. I just want to make sure they are still able to get everything, I'll keep you posted I promise!!

    NOW THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!!! THANK YOU VIC!!!!!! I ordered from Coleman's this morning, everything I need if in fact the 2wd shaft will work, part #67800-41130. I went this way first as I figured least expensive first, and that with any luck the shaft length will be the same 8200 to...

    Vic, Part number 66310-41200 comes back at Messicks as column comp. and is outlined at Kubota's own k-pad as parts 18 and 19, the metal tube column that surrounds the ball nut shaft assembly (http://kpad2.kubota.co.jp/kpad2/PartsInfo.do?bookCd=100K0092&funcCd=&figNo=T04200&dispType=2) as shown...

    B8200HST-D steering box, replacement, compatability with other models?

    I'm meeting with a guy who has run his own machine shop for 36 years on Monday to see if there is any way he can reconstruct the parts that have damage done to them. Mainly we are talking about the steering shaft and the worm gear/ball nut on the bottom. All the other parts of the gear box...

    B8200HST-D steering box, replacement, compatability with other models?

    My steering shaft is a two piece design, and it measures 19.5". There is one listed at 18 and 5/8ths, but no other measurements on shaft diameter or the like. I may have to give them a call when they open tomorrow. Again, thanks for all your help on this guys, I'm sure we'll find a solution...

    I'd like to know more about aftermarket units. Are these aftermarket manual steering parts? Post me a link if you can, I have found nothing!! I will be looking into the Yanmar possibility, maybe I can find parts diagrams that look similar, I'll let you know. I have messaged back and forth...

    B8200HST-D steering box, replacement, compatability with other models?

    Sam, I've not had any luck with original parts, I'm looking into the power steering option, and wishing there were a close to bolt on solution for less than $1000. I've made dozens of emails and phone calls, looks like there are a lot of people with B8200's in the same boat. . .

    B8200HST-D steering box, replacement, compatability with other models?

    Here is an update from my troubles. I received this email form Kubota today: Hi, Mr. Taylor, Thank you for contacting Kubota Parts. I am sorry to tell you that the dealer is correct. We cannot get the steering parts for that model from Japan any more. I searched the database for the ball nut...

    B8200HST-D steering box, replacement, compatability with other models?

    I bought last winter a B8200HST-D tractor and this winter have lost the steering in it. My guess is that the bearing on the bottom got a little bit of water in it, flew apart and ruined the worm gear and the shaft. There were bearings everywhere, and surface rust mid way down the shaft once I...
