    B7000 clutch job

    After delaying for a few years my clutch stopped working completely so I did what I had to do to get it into the garage. The hardest part of this job is getting started, especially since I'm not a mechanically inclined person. After leaving it to sit for a few months I finally got into it this...

    B7000 steering rebuild

    PART I So with my newfound confidence after resolving my fuel system problem I've decided to tackle my B7000s longstanding steering issues. It's so loose that I was having some trouble tilling straight rows and getting out of ruts. With Vic's steering rebuild articles to guide me I am pretty...

    B7000 won't start after running dry

    Hey all! I'll start this off by saying that I am not mechanically knowledgeable, on either gas or diesel engines, but am willing to learn. I have a v. old B7000 that has run fine for the last 4 years. The other day I ran out of gas. No big deal I thought, as it's happened before. I filled...

    What size harrow can I pull.

    Hi all. I am looking to renovate my pasture; there's too much thatch and moss and now in the middle of winter it looks quite brown whereas my neighbour, who makes hay every year, has a pasture of lush green grass. I was thinking of mowing it as low as possible and then running a chain harrow...

    Removing broken brake linkage

    The rod that links from the brake pedal to the rear brakes on my B7000 is busted, so my brakes only work on the right-hand side. I'm finally getting around to repairing/replacing it but the darn think is so difficult to remove. Where it connects at the rear there is also a spring holding it (I...

    A couple of questions about my loader

    Have got the tractor in the garage today while it rains (it can rain for days on end here) and took the time to take a few photos for ordering parts and posting here on OTT. There's a couple of questions I've been dying to ask about my FEL: Here there's a a metal bar hinged on the loader, with...

    New battery on B7000

    Seems my battery on my B7000 needs replacing. Each time I finish using the tractor I need to take the battery out and put it on the trickle charger till the next time. Put on the multimeter and it reads 12+ Volts, so I guess it's undamaged, but for some reason it can't hold the charge anymore...

    Drawbar Trailer Hitch

    Realised this summer it might be useful to have a trailer hitch on my B7000 so I can haul things around the property using the trailer I normally hitch up to the car, though I'd have to wait for drier days to avoid getting it stuck. Things to haul include produce, firewood, manure, lumber...

    There's one for sale (TL185) in my area, however I can't seem to find anything on the internet about this company except a few threads on Tractorbynet.

    Maximum weight of rototiller B7000 can handle

    I'm looking for a used rototiller for my B7000. Anyone know what is the maximum weight I can put on the back of my tractor before it would cause my front-end to lift up and lose traction/steering? My tractor is roughly 1500 lbs, the loader 500 lbs, and ballast in the rear tires 100 lbs. I'm...

    Old Kubota tiller

    I am looking for a tiller for my B7000, and came across one that was paired with a B5000 but which the owner doesn't need. I need to find the brackets that fit each side of the PTO (mine are missing) as this is a 2 pt tiller, and need to consider clearances from the back tires (B5000 seems a...

    Tiller for B7000

    Just picked up my first tractor, a B7000 with an Allied loader, 3 pt hitch, and back blade for $4500. Though it looks old and faded, it's mechanically sound and apart from a new fan belt and an oil change, there's not much that's needs to be done before I put her to work. I'm after a tiller...

    L1501DT for sale

    I'm in the market for a compact B or L series, nothing more than 20hp is necessary for what I'll be doing. Ideally I'd like to find a model with an FEL and tiller. I spotted an L1501DT with an FEL and 1211 for $5800 on craigslis the other day. Seems well kept from the pictures...

    New to Kubota

    Newly joined member here. We've just recently bought a 3 acre property and there seem to be a lot of things that could get done a lot easier with a tractor. There's about 2 acres of pasture to mow. I'd like to till a chunk of that into garden. Some pasture will need to be fenced off so...
