Need some help finding specs for a replacement auger bearing for a Kubota B748B. The Kubota PN for the bearing is 70060-00002. Local dealer wants $170 for one bearing. I was hoping to try to source an aftermarket replacement bearing. Can anyone help me with dimensions for this bearing? Or...

Any idea on the following regarding the he oval shaped ring on the lower section of the lever: What does it do? Is it in a fixed position? Spring loaded in anyway?

Thanks for the photos. I think they will help. Appreciate it!

Wolfman: Thanks, what brand/model/size did you use? No problems with binding? They mounted to the OEM wheels OK?

I did some more research - having better luck searching OTT posts using Google search over the search function in this forum. Anyway, I found a post that discussed rolling circumference specs of the OEM turf tires. It was stated that the: Front Tire: 63.75" Rear Tire: 92.75 Ratio: 1.45...

Thanks Guys, Both look different from what I have. I was able to find a part schematic but I needed more detail to fabricate a new one. Attached is what mine looks like:

Hi All, Need some help. I have a 1982 B7100 with the Sno-Caster on the front. The hand lever that actuates the hydraulic lift valve fell off and is gone. I called my local dealer and the part is discontinued. P/N 70060-00098. I am going to try to fabricate a handle but could use a couple of...

Does anyone know if a Light Truck tire would fit on the rear rim of my B7100? From my research, it looks like a 255/70-15 tire has the same diameter as the original 29x12.0-15 turf tire. Has anyone tried this? The light truck tire is about $100 each vs. the turf tires are about $200 each. Or...

Birddogger mentioned it might be the fuel lift pump leaking if my problem with a over filled crankcase continues. Has anyone else ever encountered this problem? Can anyone tell me the steps needed to check this diaphram? Also can anyone provide me with the steps to replace the pressure...

I do not have a RPM gauge but I would guess my engine speed while mowing is approximately 2000 rpm, maybe a little higher. If you have the same tractor, the trottle position is right at the seam between the hood and the dash panel. I understand oil pressure will drop as the oil warms but I'm...

Re: B7100 oil pressure problem and specs Update on the low oil pressure problem: I put the test gauge on the machine. At cold start up, the pressure read 52psi at high idle. I'm currently using 15w-40 oil. I cut the lawn using the 60" belly mower, ambient temp was 60F. Within the first...

Thanks Stumpy, no oil in the coolant. The tractor does not appear to be overheating, hoping the coolant situation is simply a bad seal on the radiator cap. I made a list of things to check/replace with respect to the oil pressure situation: 1. oil pressure sensor 2. oil filter and oil...

Thanks for the help. Trying to figure out what's up with my tractor an wanted to start with some specs as a base line. Oil light comes on after about 1 hour, flickers at open throttle and is fully on at idle. Also, I get some coolant drip out of the overflow after the first 15 minutes or so...

Guys, does anyone have the engine oil pressure specs for a B7100. What are the specs at idle and open throttle? Also, what should the running temperature of the engine be? And where is the best place to measure it from? My tractor is a 1982 B7100 4x4 HST. Thanks

Thanks for the advice guys. I will give it a try and report back.
