    What should I ask for these tires / wheels?

    I bought a used L225 earlier this year. It came with several extra parts that I am tired of storing and would love to sell but I have no idea if there is a market for them or what to ask if there is. I have 2 Bridgestone 13.6 x 16 turf tires mounted on Kubota 6 bolt rims that do NOT fit my...

    Is there a market for these used wheels / tires?

    Thanks. I will do that if that is what local protocol indicates I should do. :) I placed the question here because I really did not want to advertise them for sale in a national forum but was asking if there is a market for them and if so how much I should ask for them if I advertise them...

    L225 Steering problem

    Hello and welcome! Unfortunately I do not know the answer to your question. There are some very smart people that frequent this board and they will help you shortly, I am sure. I have an L-225 also and happily have not suffered the problem you are currently having. I will say though that it is...

    cold weather starting question

    Wow! You guys are quick to share your experience and I very much appreciate it! I will buy a block heater and trickle charger and I will tarp the tractor. It does sit under a car port so it will not be directly in the weather. Fuel additive is a must also. Embarrassingly, I never considered...

    cold weather starting question

    This is my first winter with a diesel tractor. I have an old Kubota L225! I expect to continue to store it outdoors and use it to plow snow this winter. Is there anything I should do to make it easier to start once the weather gets cold? I am a novice with diesel engines so I am basing my...

    Help removing L225 Final Drive

    I followed instructions..bought the Ultra Black permatex, assembled semi-tight, torqued to full tight a little over an hour later. Tractor is now fully reassembled aside from hanging the tire and filling the hydraullic fluid. After I give the permatex the recommended 24 hours to cure I will...

    Help removing L225 Final Drive

    I will go buy some of your recommended Ultra Black tomorrow and use the broken gasket. There are no missing pieces, it just snapped! That is what I understood you to be saying. If I am wrong please smack me along the side of the head and repeat yourself:rolleyes: If I don't get told differently...

    Help removing L225 Final Drive

    :mad: After waiting more than 2 weeks for parts and my dealer getting the wrong part twice, I finally began the reassembly of the final drive. After everything was together and ready to be reattached to the tractor I placed the gasket in the prpoper spot on the final drive and began lifting the...

    What service after draining hydraulic fluid

    That is a great point. I will pull the plug on the axle I am not working on to make sure there is nothing hiding there. Thanks! I will also do a complete grease job as suggested above.

    What service after draining hydraulic fluid

    Sound advice. Thanks! I had been having problems with my 3 point hitch before this rebuild. I am hopeful that the problem was the pressure leaking off through the bad oil seal. The oil first dripped but eventually exited the axle a rate a fire hose would be proud of! Aside from the new oil...

    What service after draining hydraulic fluid

    I recently had a problem with my L225 that caused me to drain my hydraulic fluid to perform the repairs needed in the final drive. I am currently waiting for the parts to arrive and should have that repair completed this weekend. :D Since I already have the system drained is there maintenance...

    Help removing L225 Final Drive

    With your recommendation in mind, I tore her down. The photos show the axle, the bearing that blew up and caused all of this, and the hydraulic filter screen. It is currently soaking in diesel fuel. Hopefully it will be OK, if not I will get one when I buy my oil seals, bearings, and gaskets...

    Help removing L225 Final Drive

    Now that I have the final drive removed from the tractor, can I replace the bearings and oil seals myself or does it require a press and is better left to a professional? If I can replace them myself are these parts I can order from the folks who host this web forum? Ordering from them is the...

    Help removing L225 Final Drive

    Here are some photos. I was able to separate the pieces with gentle persuasion (hammer). Sadly I found some large metals pieces laying on the bottom of the transmission side of the case that appear to be what is left of the bearings . You can also see in the photos that the bearings are gone...
