    B2400 Mid PTO case repair

    Does anyone know if the case is aluminum or magnesium. Bearing failed and the 19T gear ground a 3/8” hole in the case. Trying to see if it’s weldable or fixable with something like ProSeal 890 B2. TIA JC

    Kubota G5200 Eaton Hydrostatic - No Forward or Backward Movement

    Ended up pulling the HST Eaton 1100 046 CCW Pump. Turns out the output shaft is cracked. Now to see if the part is still available from Eaton. btw I have the illustrated parts list with part numbers if anyone needs it. Bigger question: what created such stress. The PTO is powered by double...

    Kubota G5200 Eaton Hydrostatic - No Forward or Backward Movement

    Recent acquisition: Seems original with 585 hours. Starts right up. At time of purchase, transaxle was dry ie no fluid. Filled it with 7 quarts UDT - no leaks but no movement. Strainer clear and has a Kubota filter. Not sure what happened to fluid as there is no evidence of draining. I...

    Woods R105-2 Rotary Cutter on Kubota B1700

    Thanks for the responses. I knew I was pushing it but your opinions make it clear that I will be avoiding a huge blunder not to mention safety and potentially damaging equipment. John

    Woods R105-2 Rotary Cutter on Kubota B1700

    wanted to get collective opinion of the above cutter on the B1700. Two issues of concern: 1) weight of cutter is 1,086 lbs. B1700 is rated to lift 1,280 lbs; 2) Cutter manual states tractor requirements are PTO 540 and horsepower 40-75, which my Kubota lacks as it is 17 hp. Does the...

    assemble zextel 3 cyl inj pump

    Daniel: what you are calling the pintle is the plunger which goes into the cylinder. These two pieces (No 20 in the diagram) are what experience wear and get replaced. The other pieces that get replaced are the delivery valves (No 30 in the diagram). The delivery valve sits on top of the...

    assemble zextel 3 cyl inj pump

    Your pump is indeed different. However, the basic principles of operation have to be the same. I started with the rack in the pump and installed one at a time. The control sleeve timing to the rack is critical. That is the first thing I inserted - the control sleeve and made triple sure...

    L260 low oil pressure

    When I did my B7100 camshaft plug, I pulled the camshaft and found a plug on the back of the shaft that was sort of dangling in place. The only thing that kept it from falling out was the back wall. As I was pulling the camshaft out, it fell off. I had to stick a copper pipe into the camshaft...

    B6000 pto reverser needed

    Matt, if its the same one Im seeing for sale (I have no interest in it as I cannot justify the price), it is a 10 spline. I have a B6000E and it also has a 10 spline. Reason for my post here is that some B6000Es have 18 splines. Im not sure which ones are Europe or US or what the reason but...

    1979 B7100 Fuel Injection Pump Rebuild

    The injection pump rebuild went without a hitch. She now fires on all three cylinders. Pump also holds pressure as it starts as soon as I hit the starter, less than one rotation. I attached some photos and short video (videos giving me a battle so upload later). I tried to take a picture of...

    1979 B7100 Fuel Injection Pump Rebuild

    Appreciate the encouragement! My B7100 ain't pretty. For years, she was doomed to a spot under a tree and then became a parts tractor. My first task was to weld the plugs on both ends of the cam - posted in another thread. Also pulled the head and replaced the head gasket. I'll post short...
