Bear with me as I am knew to Kubota, just bought my B7200 HSTD on Thanksgiving day and has been worked hard and neglected and I am trying to change that. I just paid $77.95 today for one front wheel stud and one gasket that were not in stock and ordered. My questions is are they any sources on the internet that I can order new parts for a discount? Are their any reputable used part houses on the internet. Any place where I can check pricing? I have several John Deere tractors and I have bought used parts off eBay but I don't see many parts for my Kubota on eBay. I also have an internet dealer that I use to check pricing on new parts for my John Deere tractors. The Kubota dealer no longer prices items individually when they are ordered and no longer shows shipping charges. I think it maybe time to try another dealer?

Check the "must have websites" sticky on top of this forum
if anyone else has a good "must have's" to add please do post it up and in that thread and I'll copy it into the top post. For example we need more "used" part dealer reccomendtations.

both those and much more is in the sticky. Way too many sources to duplicate again here.
Thanks, per Golden Eagle Direct front wheel stud is $8.05, the gasket part #67401-54220 is $59.74. Total is $67.79, dealer charged me $77.95. Parts guy told me they no longer get charged for shipping, difference is $10.16. Now I have places to check pricing and I won't be paying $60.00 for a gasket again.

Usually a dealer has options on shipping, if you want fast they charge, if slower is ok they can use normal Kubota transportation and it is free

That's not much difference between your dealer and the online source, pretty close. Shipping from the online source?
Good to be able to check & compare though.
I guess it's ok to save a few bucks by shopping online, but if you do so I would recommend buying from a place that will give you any technical or application advise that you may need. It's not fair to buy online, then ask your local dealer for advise. He spends a lot of money on employee technical training and parts inventory in order to help you keep your equipment moving.
