I went through the same scenario with my L2250 some years ago, as they (rear rims) were no longer offered by Kubota. Not being willing to scrounge for used ones around the country I had new ones fabricated by Wold Rim out in Iowa. The whole process wasn't cheap, but I basically had no other...

I had the same issue with my L2250 and ended up having new rears fabricated by Wold Rim out in Iowa. They weren't cheap but they're much beefier than the originals.

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

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 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.
