    Rebuilding the 4530B Kubota Backhoe.....

    I'm trying to remove the swing assembly king post. My manual does not show anything on doing this. I did a Google search to no avail. I have all the bolts / nuts out of the cap, and it's loose, but will not lift out. I know there are people here that have done this, and I'm hoping that...

    Sources for Kubota Backhoe cylinder seal kits

    I have a Model L - 4530B backhoe that came with my tractor. I would like to replace the seals due to hydraulic fluid leaking on my garage floor. Is there a complete rebuild kit for the whole backhoe, meaning all the cylinders ?

    Source for hydraulic cylinder seals......

    Hello all, I need to replace the seals, and am wondering where I can find quality parts for the best pricing. I will be doing the work myself. I don't have a problem with aftermarket parts, just as long as they are as good as OEM. If anyone can help with info on seal kit's, I would really...

    Very simple 3-point question

    I have a 1988 B9200. Does the tractor engine have to be running in order for the 3-point arms to drop down from full up position? Vic? Ed? ? :confused:

    New 3 Point linkage, missing parts.

    Re-assembling my tractor after some restoration, have the backhoe off. I'm trying to set up a 3 point so I can buy a Land Pride grading scraper. I bought my tractor with a loader & backhoe mounted & working. I don't think my tractor has ever had a working 3 point mounted-up. This is my first...

    Need tires, can't find any......

    I can't seem to find tires for my tractor. I took my tires & wheels to my local tire shop (they sell lots of tractor tires) to have the old tires dismounted so I could sandblast & paint the wheels. The dealer told me he would have to order my tires. A couple day's out. Ok. Well, he calls me a...

    Bent front wheel

    Anyone know where I can buy a 12 X 5 JA wheel for the front of my Kubota ? Mine is bent. I put it in a lathe, and it looks like it has around an inch or more runout. I'm going to try straightening it with a hydraulic press, but I think it's toast. It's bent on the outsde hub area, about half...

    Gear trans oil line "screen" location.........

    My goofy Kubota owners manual says to "remove & clean the screen when changing transmission fluid". Well, that's fine. Don't mind doing that at all. If I could just FIND IT ! My rig is a 1989 B9200 4WD Gear Drive. I really think Kubota is refering to the hydrostatic drive unit, which I don't...

    Manual steering box repair issues........

    I guess it's my turn for steering problems. Removed my steering box assembly, and dismantled on bench. What I found, was the steering shaft and "worm gear shaft" are two seperate pieces, held together by a pin. Well, guess where it broke at ? Yep, right where the two are, ( or were ) mated...

    Faulty injector pump ?

    I bought my B9200 a few months ago knowing the previous owners beat the living daylights out of it. It ran, although ruff ( has a miss on acceleration). Starts very hard. But starts. Well, it USED to start ! That miss has been driving me nuts, so, I decided to pull the injectors to have a...

    Headlights

    My B9200 has the small rectangular headlights ( 2" X 4 3/4" ). Neither one works, because the PO screwed-up the bulb sockets. I'd like to replace them with a more modern light. Has anyone here done this upgrade? I think that even if I got what I have working, they will not be bright enough. If...

    MY 1st Tractor.........

    Just bought a Kubota B9200D. Came with a Model BF 350 loader, & a model L-4530B backhoe. All Kubota. Kinda rough, used hard. But, it runs, & all the attachments work. I plan on doing repairs just as soon as the manuals I ordered from my local dealer get here. Meantime, I'm taking-in all the...
