    L245 DT Steering Repair

    John, just a little Kubota trivia for you. I read on a post that any threaded plugs are British Standard PipE Thread or BSPT. Search for the thread as it is worthwhile knowledge. Reminds me that back in the day my 1959 Austin Healey has Whitworth head bolts, it was fun finding a Whitworth...

    Looking at L245DT

    I bought a L 245DT about 3 years a go with a loader and bush hog. It was a one owner with about 2100 hours. Paid $5500. In central Calif. I would say that your deal looks very good. Also, it has been a great workhorse, it has more than paid for itself already. Good Luck

    L245dt battery drain
