Er, I don't think the later "fat" radiator grille will fit an earlier tractor straight off. I presume you mean the grille for the HST version of the B7100? (the geared version has a different grille) The earlier "corrugated" grille for the HST fitted directly to some lugs which were on the...

Hi Rich, My local Kubota dealer in the UK is Lister Wilder at Ockham, they are great and may do a postal service if you pay by card over the 'phone but Hughie Willetts definitely will. Part No.: 17011-53620 Gasket Lister Wilder (Ockham) 01483 286837 Hughie Willetts Tel : 0121 308 1262 All...

Hi Rich, The copper seals (or gaskets) are £1.70 each from a UK Kubota dealer, you may even get a discount, they are not the most expensive items you will have to buy for your B7100 ;-) Check that it's not the O rings which are causing the leak though - they are even cheaper! Curly

This site has helped me a lot and so I was very pleased to be able to return a little of that. Us B5100 owners need to stick together! Good luck. Curly

Hi, I'm in the UK and I have a B5100E, I may even have some lifting arms spare but they will be very expensive just to ship to Finland. Many parts for the B5100 are the same on the later B4200, download manuals for both tractors to compare. All the 3 point hitch parts are the same, if you have...

I shall be very interested to hear the outcome of this as I have exactly the same problem on my UK spec. B7100 HST. I'll have to look closely at the injectors and nozzles on my tractor as I have just ordered a new set of the copper gaskets that they sit in as I assumed it was these that were...

Hi, it should be: 15241-11350 Cap, Air Cleaner 15221-11410 Cover , Baffle you may also need the hooks: 66704-85820 Hook A/C Cover Hopefully the rubber gasket survived but if not here is the part No. for that too: 15221-11170 Gasket A/C Cover Try Messicks for new or Wengers, the places the...

Hi, There is a very good salvage yard with a lot of Kubota parts in West Kentucky, here is a link: http://wkytpstore.com/?page_id=22 Also try Wengers: http://www.wengers.com/ Make sure you call them as not everything is listed online. Good luck. Curly

Thank you VERY much for the kind help. I have contacted WKTP and asked them to reserve the part for me while they remove it from the transmission of their tractor, hopefully they will send a few photos of it when they have removed it. What a great place, I think I may be getting a few more...

Hi All, I have recently bought a dismantled B5100E on impulse, I only wanted the aircleaner but when that turned up in almost new condition I had to ask how much the rest of the tractor was and as it was only £300 (about $500US) I grabbed it... There is no rust, the original paint is still...

Hi Rob, Good to hear, I had a feeling they would be the correct size, I have been comparing photos of US spec. B7100s with European spec. machines and it's clear that the US versions have much smaller headlamps and the whole lamp housing is different. Out of interest, do the units come with the...

Hi Vic, Rob might be correct as the UK has a different spec. The bonnet on a UK B7100 is very different to a US version and I'm fairly sure that the US lamps are smaller. We have side flashers (indicators) fitted to the front of the bonnet as a legal requirement for road driving and I believe...

Hi John, thank you so much for the incredibly useful links, I've downloaded all the material I need to and will study it. Your facilities for restoring these tractors puts many professional workshops over here to shame. The tractor I was offered seems to be in very good condition and I may...

Hi John, once again, thank you very much for the advice and excellent photos. In truth the tractor I have been offered is probably in better condition than the one you started with, I'm guessing the 4000+ hours are genuine. The tractor is at the other end of the country so I haven't seen it...
