I would work with your insurance agent and the adjuster. Recently, my daughter's 9 year old SUV was totaled due to 'rodents' chewing on the vehicle wiring! Really! The insurance company settled and the payout was within $500 of average KBB value. One caveat would be, inform the agent and...

I have a B7300 and know of only 2 or 3 safety switches that will prevent starting. (1)The HI-LOW range (Rabbit/Turtle) lever must be in Neutral, and (2) the PTO selection (Rear/Mid) lever must also be in neutral. (3?) The CLUTCH pedal also must be depressed other wise the engine will not...

Thanks to Russell and Paul I have used PB Blaster, WD-40, Kroil, and a host of other lubricants, including diesel/kero just for grins. I have used a heavy hammer/mallet/sledge but not a hydraulic unit. I may try that, but again, if something breaks, I might be in worse shape. Who knows. I had...

PaulL: I think that you now have a better idea about how the seat looks and works. Removing the seat itself has no affect on the base unit travel. No. The base will not move backwards off the track. It appears that disassembly would have the unit move to the front to remove, as seen in the...

HI Guys. Thanks for the replies, however, if you look closely at the video, you will see how the seat itself can be removed by removing the cotter pin (seen on the left). However, to remove that cross piece, that he removed, the slide must be full forward, and as noted, that is the issue. I...

Hi guys I am still wrestling with this problem. After numerous penetrating oil/lube applications/hammer banging, the seat still refuses to slide forward anymore. I have and will continue to work on this. However, today I found a YT video that may give a hint at what I am up against. In the...

TimberwolfFX: you got about as much as I did from Kubota. Thoroughly disappointed with their customer service. It was almost like I was talking/emailing a robot. They never once made any offer to check with engineering or tech support to find a possible option. Like your reply, throw it away if...

My opinion of Kubota customer service at KubotaUSA has dropped dramatically. It appears, that while they invited continued questions regarding my initial request, that they have forced closed the 'event'. Here is what they said after my second request: "Recently you requested personal...

I have heard from KubotaUSA twice, but so far they have been less than helpful. I have resubmitted my query and hopefully this time they will come up with an answer. They have acknowledged that the tire is no longer available from the manufacturer and that they have no stock and nor do they...

For those following this thread and those who might be interested, I found a CONTACT link to KUBOTAUSA and have sent an inquiry to them asking what they would recommend as a replacement tire. I will post their response. Who knows....they might recommend a trailer tire!

Thanks for your input BigG and I take your points seriously. However, I have purchased many a tire over my 72 years of living, and have come to the conclusion, that at times, some claims by tire dealers are not all that they are cracked up to be. I have several times been sold sets of tires...

Thanks for your reply and input. However, you appear to be either a tire dealer or work for one. You therefore are biased towards selling tires. Just because a tire may fit a wheel, that does not mean that it works as intended. I think that I will await an actual B7300 or similar user's...

When using this tractor in tight turns on soft/wet turf, even with my current turf tires, I have to be careful not to tear/rip turf. That tire does not appear to be a turf tire, but a trailer or other device tire..I.E., very aggressive tread design. 6PLY and much higher load rating suggests...

While not critical right now, my front tires are weather checked. They are Firestone 21x8.00-10 tires and no longer available from Firestone (discontinued). Looking at any in that size, I do not see anything available. Does anyone know of or if there is a replacement tire? Appreciate any help/ideas.

I have had my tractor for nearly 20 years, and this has been a constant issue. The short forward pointed exhaust hits the loader&frame nearly all the time. Whenever the tractor is under load, and with all diesels under load, you will get a heavier exhaust. Just a part of the game. It essentially...
