If you happen to read this, please reply with a link to the thread you found that talks about replacing the rear lift link. Specifically how you managed to insert the link through both sides of the frame and have all line up properly. I'm searching but must not be using the proper words. Thanks!

I have 1986 L345 DT w/loader. I was using an auger, the auger corkscrewed and the 3-point would not lift it. With the PTO still turning, I put the tractor in gear and attempted to slip the clutch to get the tractor to ease forward in an attempt to shake it loose. Instead, the bump killed the tractor with the auger buried. I pushed in the clutch and the starter would not engage at all. I also had a lot of difficulty getting the PTO to disengage, but it finally did. I used another tractor to pull the auger, towed the tractor to the shop and have been trying to get the starter to work ever since. I'm guessing there is a safety switch somewhere that I've somehow ticked off. There is a switch against the block, directly ahead of the brake pedal. It's spring loaded and has an adjustment but I can't find anything that would possible trip it.
I can jump the starter from the battery, but have not been able to get the starter switch to engage the starter since burying the auger.

I am sorry for the long delay in answering, I am not on that often. Yes I do still have the deck, it has been kept inside out of the weather and still looks exactly like the photos. I am in Arkansas so some kind of arrangements could e made to meet for delivery. 479-6one9-5379
Hey cat did we or did we not have a listing of where people are from? I was thinking of a meet and greet maybe and was wondering who was from around SW Pa
Hi, were you able to obtain a part number or manufacturer for the antiscalp bracket written in several posts for the Kabota deck ?

The bx 2200 and bx series tractors tend to run hot and are very sensitive to lack of air flow through the radiator. i have made one major change on my Kubota bx 2200 a after mart radiator for a Honda auto it has three rows of tubes and aluminum tanks top and bottom of the radiator. Rework of the an shroud is required I have a press brake for re bending of the shroud a big job. A new 5 blade fan is next. Please let me know if you have made any other improvements to the cooling system

Orange crusher, I'm new to the forum. I have a 2018 BX2680 w/ 322 hrs and the quick coupler with the lever assembly has a leak on the white line side. I want to do the same mod that you and john T did. I saw his parts list of 4 sets of pioneer couplers, 4 3/8" JIC to 1/4" NPT adapters and the tube clamps. When he said 4 sets that is the males and female correct? When did you get your coupler covers and are you happy with them? Thanks, Steve

Hey Clint,

He actually made me feel smarter just because of our connection I guess, (not that I am stupid, he didn't have much on me in the IQ department), and I know better, but since he is gone all of a sudden I feel so stupid, and I know I still have everything he taught me, everything he ever thought, I have that, I guess it will just take time for me to realize I can't rely on him anymore.

The one thing about him that always aggravated me the most was my mind trying to keep up with his, his mind went a million miles an hour 24/7, he would actually keep me up at night when he was trying to solve a problem, or had another terrific idea he was trying to work out, and atm I still have trouble sleeping because he isn't in my head anymore, yes we were that close.

Cheers
Samantha

Ok to finish.

Lol, just like when he decided to join the Marines, he got up that morning and got dressed, when he got to his car I was sitting there ready to go, so we both signed up together elbow to elbow.

Being identical twins has been a wonderful experience for me, until now.

Cheers
Samantha

I'm bought a b7200 three years ago, and I'm on my third glow-plug controller. They burn out and have to be replaced. Plugs won't glow without them which makes starting tough. Is this normal, or is my sketchy wiring causing a problem. Last night, when I first installed a fresh one, there was a little smoke (like it was going to burn out too) before it started to function normally. Any thoughts for a newbie are appreciated.
Hi there, we are new to this forum, so hello all. We have a B1550 - manual gear box, today we have changed the transmission oil but now need to find the transmission strainer to clean that - but we don't know where it is - can anyone tell us where to find the strainer please??

Hi Rob,

I saw in one of your posts that you managed to get your hands on a manual for the KMS180. I've just managed to get my hands on one of the backhoes here in central portugal. The machine has definitely had some use over the years, and there's a few bits that need some tlc. It would be infinitely useful to have a copy of the manual, so that I can go into a tractor shop and point at the things we need to replace (my portuguese really isn't that good!). Would there be any chance of you being able to scan me a copy? I'd be happy to send some money your way for your time....

Thanks
