    L225 hood CUSHION alternative

    I need to replace the Hood cushion on my L225 restoration. Its the long u channel strip going around the hood where it rest on the dash. Is anyone using something else other than the factory cushion, part number H3410-18130?? Kubota wants almost $60. I'm sure something else can be used. Thanks

    L225 Tach vs L185 tach

    Also the part numbers for the Tach cable are the same between the L225 and L185. SO that should bolt up.

    I've been restoring a L225 for the past 1 1/2 years. The sheet metal is half done(terrible rot). It's time for me to see about getting a new Tach/hour gauge. The glass is broken and water intrusion corroded the insides. Kubota want over $185 for one, assuming they can get one. Ebay has a NOS...

    Thanks 85hokie. I did see the radiator you posted a link to. I'm not sure if that would work. I don't know the size of it. Also the lower neck is bent down, whereas mine is strait. I'd hate to buy it and I could not get it to work. Had anyone else used a L175 radiator on a L225?

    This would be my first post, although I have been reading and searching throughout OTT for the past year. I was given a L225 from my father-in-law cuz it would not run. It had straight water in the radiator , froze, and blew the freeze plug behind the front cover. I also checked the radiator...
