So I have a part number for my BX2680 but I can't find specs for it. It's a ' plug'.. part number 16683-96020. I think it's either a 3/4 or 1" NPT. Maybe I could measure it.. much bigger than 3/4 would have to be a 1" plug right? But for my future research..say, bolt sizes. I would like to have access to that resource Thanks

That kind of data is not well documented by Kubota. Best you can do is the description in the parts manuals.
As to that plug NPT is unlikely. Kubota typically uses BSPP for hydraulic fittings. Measure the OD of the thread with a caliper or mic and tell us what you get. Where exactly is it used?
Edit: Found it - socket head plug in side of engine crankcase. Probably BSPT.

A common, and irritating, problem across every manufacturer's parts list I've ever looked at. Why provide a spec and make it easy to buy a common part, like a bolt, elsewhere, when instead you can charge, and get, $5 for a 59 cent part.

When they were in the tractor business Ford did a very good job of providing the specifications in the parts catalogs. Wonder if that had anything to do with their demise......
