    1980 B6100 4x4 - Looking for loader.

    Did I remember to send you pictures of the loader that 1980 sent to me? If I did, sorry for the duplicates.

    B670 Backhoe for B7100

    Not in this case. It would have required a new throttle cable and some re-engineering. Not needed in my opinion. Been tilling 3 seasons now and doing just fine. Thanks! 👍

    B670 Backhoe for B7100

    I purchased one of the HF engines for a defunct Snapper rear-tine tiller. Bolted right up and performs very well. The only take away is the throttle control is not on the operator handle any longer. I've adjusted to that minor inconvience. I close the fuel valve each time I shut it down for...

    Is there interest in a DIY Loader Kit for B6100/B7100?

    Any chance you have completed the upgrades you spoke about concerning a quick change setup on your B219? I'd love to see as much of it as possible. I have a B219 and want to do the same thing. Thanks!!

    New decals and placards

    Will photo's with a tape measure strategically placed measuring between certain points be helpful? I'll take a few photo's this way and post them in a few minutes. You let me know if it's helpful. I don't know how I can reward or pay you appropriately for the time you're going to invest except...

    New decals and placards

    It seems like this is something you could be doing for Kubota owners all over the world with vintage machines like mine. And believe me I would have to think it would be well received by those of us who love Kubota's. In either case, thank you for the technical advise. I will try to put it to...

    New decals and placards

    So scan it in what format, PDF? And then print that somehow and apply it to the existing dash panel?

    New decals and placards

    I have a couple of speciality engravers in the area and I know they both use both old school engraving techniques and lasers. You just gave me an idea to call them about this as well.

    New decals and placards

    I have the decal for the glow plugs and the decompression knob. I’ll check with some graphic places and see if it can be done.

    New decals and placards

    I'm in great shape for decals all over the tractor except the dash board. I can read everything but I haven't much for the dash panel itself. Getting that refreshed would be a really nice addition to the restoration. Any thoughts on someone that does this kind of thing?

    1980 Kubota B6100D 4x4 - Restortation with UpGrades

    It’s gonna get better. I have decals coming from Messicks and I have primer and orange paint purchased. Hood and fenders orange. I’m thinking seriously about going with black instead of the gray/blue. FEL will be orange but bucket will be black. Orange Kubota seat same as original. Implements...

    1980 Kubota B6100D 4x4 - Restortation with UpGrades

    Finally got my tires mounted and on the tractor. Rolls freely in netural and drives great up and done our street.

    B6100D 4x4 - 4' Rotor Tiller?

    Very nice looking equipment you have there. I have decided to restore my B6100D to much the same appearance and fitness. These little tractors are really stout and strong. Thank you for the information concerning performance. 👍

    B6100D 4x4 - 4' Rotor Tiller?

    I’m not sure how the idea that I wanted a larger than applicable tiller got started. Again, only asking for advise. I did reference a size of 4’ only as a reference. All that being said I have done some pump research looking at a forward mounted “skid steer” style tiller. I’m putting a shaft...

    B6100D 4x4 - 4' Rotor Tiller?

    I’m not intending to go bigger than suitable. Quite the opposite.

    B6100D 4x4 - 4' Rotor Tiller?

    You do realize I said front pump, not the back board hydraulic system. Still not enough? That could be a 20gpm system. 🤷🏼

    That’s good to hear! Thank you! 👍

    B6100D 4x4 - 4' Rotor Tiller?

    This maybe is a crazy thought but at one time I had a CASE444 with a hydrostatic drive tiller. It was only a 14hp Kohler but did a pretty good job of tilling, even starting from scratch wasn’t out of the question. Rough but I did it a couple times. I intend on adding front hookup hydraulic for...

    Good advise. Thank you!

    B6100D 4x4 - 4' Rotor Tiller?

    I realize the limitations due to low hp but I felt if I take it slow and keep my depth shallow for the first few passes it could be doable. In many cases I’d be tilling loose ground like established flower and garden beds. I agree trying to till new ground will be a bit of a challenge. No speed...
