Thanks a lot! I've been posting all over the place trying to come up with measurements and you're the first one that has replied. I'm missing the complete 3pt hitch and need to order an aftermarket kit that's close to the original. Thanks again. Jim
On my 1992 B1750 it wasn't that it was overheating, but rather there was a poor connection to the gauge from the printed circuit board. I was all set to buy a temp gun, but I cleaned the connections and it's been reading fine ever since. Jim
I picked up a Kubota B1750 that is missing the complete 3 PT hitch assembly. I've been looking at this one on flea-bay:

I'm wondering if this one will work? The specs say the lower lift arms are 19.68 "...
When I had this problem on my b1750 it was poor contact between the bulb base and the printed circuit board in the dash. I cleaned it up and it's been working fine ever since. Jim
I had a similar problem recently... the piston on the left was stuck in the forward position. I removed the control valve from the tractor and put it over a square plastic pan to dismantle it... So I wouldn't loose anything. There was a small spring and ball on each piston as well as a larger...
I get all my parts from the local Kubota dealer... $19 for the upper seal sounds about right. The rubber bushing was kind of expensive too as I recall. I remember how bummed I was when I discovered hydraulic fluid coming out of the steering column on my new to me 1st tractor the first week I...
One more thought; this whole upper steering assembly seems to be prone to collecting moisture... I don't know if that's from being left outside uncovered or what, but anywhere that I noticed rust I coated it with lithium grease (e.g. inside steering column and on steering shaft) on reassembly. Jim
Also; when you have the top casting off the steering box, examine the lower shaft for rust and possible pitting where the new seal will ride. Mine had a little so I lightly cleaned it with some emery cloth. It has not leaked so far, but I only have about 1 hour of run time since the repair was...
Sorry, I have the same issue with my iPad. It's really hard for me to comment on the lower shaft play, but mine had a fair amount as I recall. The upper and lower shaft are held together with a pin that the cotter key goes though... just remove the key and then drive out the pin with a punch. I...
Go to the Kubota website and look at the online parts manual... it has the detail on how everthing goes together. I have a factory shop manual, but it really didn't help much except for torque specs. If you replace the lower seal(which I think you need to do) you'll have to remove the column. It...
The upper bushing and seal get ruined from pulling yourself up onto the tractor from the steering wheel. That collar that you see on top of the column is the seal and I popped it off with a small chisel and hammer. But I think you will find that the lower seal on the top of the steering box is...
I recently fixed the same problem on my B1750. I removed the steering wheel, dash, column, upper shaft, and top of steering box. This gets you to that lower seal. I also replaced the upper seal and bushing in the column while I was at it. Jim
