Simple... I don't loan anything out that's motorized.

>>Chappell tractor, in Milford, NH.<< Guess I'm lucky, as they're only ~6 miles from me. :)

>>I was worried about opening up a can of worms<< Whatever you do don't ask which motor oil is the best! :LOL:

>>Does he use the glow plugs?<< I had an L175 once and that bugger wouldn't start without glow plugs even in the summer!

>>I'm certain the little Kubota will love the 15W-40 'Rosmella'<< I know mine does!

>>Oh.....here we go again,..... which oil to use!<< I'm not sure what it is about oil/lubricants that gets people so riled up and opinionated? And it's not just here, but on every forum I've ever been on... cars, trucks, motorcycles, firearms etc. Go figure.... :unsure:

Sweet find!

>>It's no wonder their primary market is WA state and CA...<< And don't forget Vermont! Biggest Subaru state in the Northeast!

It must be nice not to have to BACK into it! :sick:

I went through a similar problem with my L2250, as the rear wheels were no longer offered by Kubota. (bummer!) I ended up having to get them made by Wold Rim out in Iowa. Not the ideal route to go, but I had no choice. The rims turned out to be much heavier duty than the stock offerings, so all...

>>I missed the message that TG1860 belts need replaced each year<< I replaced my first one this year, and it's a 2001 with ~350 hrs. on the clock. Oh, and I bought it new. Oh, and if I waited for my grass to be dry before mowing it would never get mowed! ;)

TLC? Hmmm, not seeing it! :)

I replaced all of mine (4) a few years ago and simply got them from my local Kubota dealer.

>>I've got a '79 L185DT with a rear rim that's rusted through and needs to be replaced<< I went through the same dilemma with my 1985 L2250. Since Kubota no longer offered replacement rims I had to have them fabricated by Wold Rim out in Iowa. They're not cheap but in my case I had no option.

>>I noticed your "ve9aa" - de W5GFE<< And de K1HS
