    BH92 Welding at cylinders falling apart

    Diagnosis: stainless fitting and soft steel welds are creating galvanic corrosion- can't believe Kubota wouldn't have thought of this. As I noted we live on an island surrounded by salt water and the air is laden with salt all year round. Humidity levels are usually quite high as well. That...

    BH92 Welding at cylinders falling apart

    Thank you all for the help. Hopeful - but not optimistic- I can get the elbows replaced without removing the rest of the crumbling welds. I visited a buddy who has a 30 year old Woods backhoe. His welds and fittings are pristine- paint is faded but not a drop of rust or corrosion anywhere. Arrrgh!

    BH92 Welding at cylinders falling apart

    Anyone know of a thread that addresses the terrible weld quality on my 2018 BH92? The amount of oxidation is completely ridiculous compared to everywhere else on my tractor. Granted I live in heavy salt air but I don't see any degradation that compares to this.

    Cab glass replacement

    I think it’s a good idea and have given it some thought but simply lack the need. I had / have the notion to add new tractor with higher output & greater range of attachments- serious temptation was for a snow plow & blower but where I live the snow has largely disappeared - almost completely...

    Thx for heads up. Challenge is I’m 150 miles & 2 hour, $300 ferry ride from closest dealer. Was hoping for reliable source that ships in bombproof box. I’ll try Messick’s see if they’re comfortable shipping glass. Appreciate your help.
