After test running the tractor with new PTO and doing some mowing, when I shut the tractor down, I heard the hydraulic squealing noise. The 3PT lever was fully down at that point. I did what you mentioned about the feedback linkage above. I adjusted so that there were a few more threads...

Got it Wolfman....Thanks again!

Hi Wolfman got the new used PTO case installed and so far it has been working great. Yes it is different than the one that came with the tractor. The new one has 16 teeth on the lower gear and the old one only had 11 teeth. So that must have come off a B6200 or B7200 as that is the amount of...

Hi Wolfman....I finally located a salvage B8200HST 4WD (same as my tractor) and they have the complete used PTO. They have to dismantle it and make sure everything looks OK. I am assuming this should be the right fit for my tractor. Any reason you can think that this m ay not be the case???

Thanks so much for your help Wolfman

Hi There....I am looking for a good used mid mount PTO unit for a Kubota B8200HST 4WD tractor.....Thanks Charles

Hi wolfman....After studying the parts list for B6200, B7200, B8200 and B98200 Mid Mount PTO's, I have found that my casing pictured below only has 11 gear teeth on the gear shaft. The B6200 and B7200 parts show 11 teeth for their shaft. My B8200 parts list calls for 16 teeth on the shaft. So...

Hi Wolfman...sorry for the delay. Having been laid up with some back problems and the Easter holiday, I've been out of action. My cousin (the machinist) made a temporary bushing (in place of the bearing) and shaft as seen in photo below. When we put them together in the PTO case the new gear...

Wolfman....I have attached some photos that you requested of the PTO case. Also, I've included a photo of the Gear with the roller bearing inside so you can see that there is slop clearance. My relative (the machinist) who will be making the idle shaft asked if you know the following...

Thanks for getting back Wolfman. Well you definitely think out of the box and could be onto something. As for the Kubota parts picture and the way it fits onto the transmission casing it looks like it would be the right case. However, one of the owners before me could have "jerry rigged" a...

Wolfman....thanks again for your response. I passed your information onto my machinist relative. He says he agrees with you on what the diameter of the shaft should be to fit inside the needle bearings. However, the inside diameter of the gear, once installed over the bearings, will still...

Thanks so much Wolfman for the great information and I will pass it onto my relative for machining the shaft. Once the gear, collars, bearings and shaft are installed it looks like there will be a side to side gear and collar movement on the shaft of about 1/8" (between the two PTO casing posts...

I am the third owner of a B8200 Kubota with a mid mount mower. Before I started to mount the mower I thought I'd better take off the mid mount PTO shaft cover to make sure it actually turns. Which to my surprise it didn't (however the rear PTO does turn). After I drained the hydraulic fluid...

I want to get a new battery for my B8200 Kubota diesel. I am finding there are many cranking amp options available. One option is 936 cranking amps with 750 cold cranking amps. My first thought is the higher the amps the better the diesel engine will start. Then the other side of me...
