tubes are easy to source and install. I put one in my rear tire of my B1750, only took a little struggling. The way a tube can expand to fill non-torus shapes is amazing.

Not everyone can have a tractor to play with, but those who do should have two. One that is just right for nearly everything they do and one that is bigger than they would ever need.

Re: b1550 hst want pull You should be able to see the propeller shaft spinning if the clutch is engaged. If it is spinning, I would say it's the HST region that is not transferring power, If it is not, then your clutch isn't transferring power. Since you haven't described any HST pedal...

JKWILSON has not been to a movie lately. 15.39 will only pay for popcorn.

Bought Kubota orange rustoleum at tractor supply for about $8.50 per rattle can. The light orange in the before picture is “Kubota orange “ BPS (best paint sold) from TSC a few years ago. I think the rustoleum color is a close enough match. I am not a professional. Sent from my iPhone using...

Removing the pin might help, but it doesn't go through the lever itself. After you install the new lever be sure to lube all the moving parts. There's a reason that lever broke. My lever sheared at the hole just above where the lever enters that fulcrum lever, I was asking it to do to much...

I removed the ROPS on my B1750 while doing some repairs. I have loaded tires, and carry every load as low as I can. While the ROPS got in the way and I didn't missed it one bit; after reading this post, I am determined to put it back on. I'm glad to have a 4 wheel drive HST that stops when I...

Mine measures roughly 23.5 inches hole to hole.

The Left Kanooten Valve always goes first, all the pressure is on that side. The only time the pressure is balanced is when you are reversing while turning to the right. You can extend the life of both valves by carefully adjusting tire pressure. The right side should be less by the ratio of...

Remove the cover over the hydraulic filter (it would be between your knees if you were on the tractor). With the tractor running you will clearly see the propeller shaft turning that powers the HST. If that shaft isn't turning, it's your clutch that ins't turning it. Messicks may have a...

I think this reply says it all. On this forum you will find only the people who care about their equipment and believe in maintaining it. They have done the math and feel it is the right choice. There are many threads that ask 'should I change the filter, or both the filter and oil?' or...

I had to replace the bearing in the DYNAMO on my B1750 a couple of years ago. Much cheaper than a complete new unit. Depending on the model year (?) some had a DYNAMO, some had an alternator. BTW, just so that you don't look silly if you need to ask for parts; a dyno or dynamometer is a...

Similar thing happened to me a month ago. The cotter pin(200) fell out of the end of the Rod Speed Change (180). Gives you a sickening feeling to have that pedal flop around. But it was an easy fix.

I think I will mark this page, to see if anyone ever advises putting another make of engine in a Kubota.

Have you not seen the youtube video of the corvette museum sink hole? Your concrete floor will hold only as much as what is holding the concrete floor will hold. etc. etc.
