HST fan confusion

[captmikem]

I need to replace the HST fan on my BX2660. Several threads here on replacing it, I am trying to order one.
Sounds simple...

I followed a link on this forum for BX HST fans.. and got this from Messicks:

Part Number - K2561-14230
Vendor - Kubota
Messick's Price $6.08
The part fits the 6 models listed below:
BX1800D
BX2200D
ZD18 (Without rops)
ZD18F (With rops)
ZD21 (Without rops)
ZD21F (With rops)

So I did a search on Messicks for "BX2660 HST fan" and get this

Part Number - 66091-13550
Vendor-Kubota
Messick's Price -$74.63
The part fits the 11 models listed below:F2260F2560 (4wd)F2560E (2wd)F3060G2160 / G2160-DS / G2160AUG2460GGF1800 (4wd)GF1800E (2wd)T1600H - T40000 UNIVERSAL JOINT/HST FANT1600H - T40010 UNIVERSAL JOINT/HST FANT1600H-EUROPE - T40000 UNIVERSAL JOINT/HST FANT1600H-EUROPE - T40010 UNIVERSAL JOINT/HST FANT1600H-G - T40000 UNIVERSAL JOINT/HST FANT1600H-G - T40010 UNIVERSAL JOINT/HST FAN

Kubota on line is no help, tried Wiengarts and many others.. crazy.

No where can I find a parts diagram for a BX2660 with the fan on it.

Anyone with a BX2660 replaced the fan and have a true part Number?

Which has been replaced by K2561-14230. See attached parts list from Messick's. See number 140.1

Mike — go to https://apps.kubotausa.com/illustrated-parts/

Agree to legal, then enter your BX2660 model #.

Should make sure you have the latest part #.

PS - wgator beat me to it.....as usual!

So here is my dilemma. I have a G2160 with a broken HST fan blade (one missing). I have the machine apart. I had ordered one from Kubota of Omaha but it came back as part number K3151-14112 and was just a few $$$ as opposed to PN 66091-13550 and is like $65! Then I see this post. Looking at the photo of the mentioned part number for the OP's post it looks like the same fan but with 3 more blades. And is only $7.00! First I gotta wonder why the huge discrepancy in pricing?! Next I have to wonder if the part listed for my G2160 is superseded by K2561-14230? All very confusing. I have to order a bunch of stuff for mine and am almost wondering if I should just add the cheaper part to my order? I did install the original part I ordered sold by Kubota of Omaha but it looks a lot different. IDK it it would cool the HST properly. The original part seems to be set up to blow air against the HST while the one I got seems to be oriented to pull air past it.
Very confusing to say the least

Well, I went to the dealer yesterday. Service guy there said if it was his machine he'd simply use the K2561-14230. So that is what I ordered (along with a lot of other things).
