    Kubota l225 power steering

    anything can be made to work. I just installed a power steering system on my B7200. The system I used came from a Mercruiser Alpha i/o drive. Its' only a question of how mechanically inclined you are, or how much money you want to spend.

    B7200 ROPS

    You inspired me to do the same. Steel cost me about $130. Took about 8hrs over a span of 2 days, to cut, fabricate, weld, paint and bolt it all together. I overhauled the tractor as well - fixed a number of minor issues. Added a coolant reservoir tank. Added temp sensor and gauge (with a 3d...

    B7200HST-D Front Axle pivot lubrication

    Actually I guess missed 1 word in what you wrote. It sounds like that's not allowed. I guess you and your knowlwdge supremacy has no patience for people trying to learn something do you?

    B7200HST-D Front Axle pivot lubrication

    Good call!... but as it turns out, the area is wet from my spraying rust check on the frame and chassis of the tractor. The orings are good - It was dry before I did that.

    B7200HST-D Front Axle pivot lubrication

    Of the inside oring doesn't seal the bushing against the case, then the bushing gets wet with oil - which is a good thing - and that oring has no reason to exist. It's not sealing anything. I would think an oring would seal the pin against the case in which scenario the bushing will not get...

    B7200 3-point-hitch specs

    Yea the manual clearly states 180kg, 400lb. Also lists a number of 3ph implements and their weights - all are <400lbs although those implement loads do not present themselves as that weight "at the pins". Anyway. I think I'm good. The ballast is only for serious loader work. 9/10 times I won't...

    B7200HST-D Front Axle pivot lubrication

    I hope so... there is an o-ring on the I inside of the bushing. If that's a packing seal then not much is going to get in there unless the outer race that hosts the bushing has a pilot hole to allow some splash lubrication in there....

    Quick question - I can't seem to locate the front axle pivot point / pin grease nipple. B7200HST-D The service manual shows where it's located on the 2wd version, but does not show it on the 4wd version. And I can't find it on the machine itself!! Is there no grease nipple on the 4wd...

    B7200HST - FWD/REV Adjustment

    Thanks for the quick response.... I'm quite familiar with HST - I have 3 other HST tractors (not kubota). Yes - I can inch forward at very low speed... but as I press the pedal it does this quick surge for a fraction of a second, and then settles on the speed I have the pedal set to. It only...

    B7200HST - FWD/REV Adjustment

    Hi Everyone, my new-to-me B7200 seems very sensitive to HST fwd/rev control input on the pedals. Just touching it in any direction surges the tractor fwd or rev that it almost slides me off the seat!.. after that initial surge for a fraction of a second the tractor settles down at whatever speed...
