Re: sgriff

Welcome to OTT Sgriff. Do not know about the L235, but I would really check it out as the type of steering is different from the L3200.

Re: sgriff

I can tell you this, a L245 will not fit it.
It should be a L275 or L305.
But will need more info to narrow it down, like:
Power Steering?
2wd or 4wd?

Re: sgriff

You can go to kubota.com and they have a section on parts diagrams. You can compare the two tractors parts numbers and see if they share the same parts. You could also go down one size model and check :)

Also, at least on the L275 there is also a serial number break. :)
Would also be helpful to include it.

Re: sgriff-L series steering boxes replacement

I called Kubota and was told that the original steering box is no longer available. They had a replacement but it also has been discontinued also. It actually started with the shaft in mine broke, that was discontinued so that's when I decided to replace the entire box. It is a 2WD with manual steering. But I have drawn a big fat zero on finding even a used one. I'll keep looking, it is a little work horse for a tractor. Thanks again for all of the input it is great to be able to lean on some one else's knowledge out there.

Not sure if this pertains to the conversation as I am unclear what you really need to replace with your steering but if you need the steering shaft I replaced one on my uncles B8200 with this shaft from Kumar Bros USA http://www.ebay.com/itm/191477858614?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

So far it is working fine and had no problems with it. They sell other hard to find parts and are making discontinued parts as well from what I understand.

Good Luck sgriff!

If you can't find parts for a steering box consider going full hydraulic steering.
