    paint job

    All I did for the blue was to spray everything with engine degreaser and then power wash. There were a few areas that needed some additional sanding but not much.

    B7000 Starter Replacement. Please Help

    I have the parts book for the B7000 and the north american B6000 and they both give the starter as 15231-6301-2. You could try that with your local Kubota dealer... Good luck!

    b7000 gray, where are parts?

    That does look like a B7000 I have one as well. I've attached two pages out of the parts manual that show what you need I think. With those part #s you should be able to get the parts from a kubota dealer. Good luck!

    paint job

    When I bought the tractor about 5 years ago, a can of Kubota orange came with it. I think it had probably been kicking around for a year or two before that. My first coat flowed out perfectly & I thought all was well so went ahead and sprayed the finish coat. That didn't flow out very well &...

    What is this under my seat?

    I'd like to set up a BEL like LRP has on his tractor. Is that auxiliary port useful to me for that ? Also what type of hydraulic system does this tractor have? I understand there are two types and I need to know in order to get the right control valve...

    paint job

    My baby(B7000) was getting pretty sad & rusty so I stripped her down & repainted. Now I don't want to take her back outside and get her dirty. Problem is my wife refuses to let me park it in the living room just to look at. :D

    What is this under my seat?

    This looks like something significant But I can't find any info about it. Does anybody know? I'm talking about the horizontal cylinder with the large bolt head in the end directly under the seat support.

    b7000 engine common to other models?

    Thank you Maximus. Great news! I'll try them out. That is a very kind offer to forward the hoses to me... I have stripped the 7000 down and am repainting/ repairing everything. The thought of being stuck with ill fitting car hoses is a bit unbearable when everything should be perfect! Rowboat

    b7000 engine common to other models?

    Hi Vic, Still trying to track down those radiator hoses. I ordered some for a 6000/7100 and they were the right shape and length but they were only 28mm ID. The 7000 hoses are about 35mm ID. The parts manual arrived by the way. Thanks.

    my bota pushing snow

    As a matter of fact I do dimly recall that folks living in the rest of the country use studded tires. It was the term "hardfacing" that was new to me... Yours truly, Rowboat (from the tropical southern Gulf Islands of BC)

    Can I ask what hardfaceing studs are? Are they something to do with the tires and traction?
