Thank you - I will follow this procedure after I install the new parts.

Attached is a schematic of the Mower Rear Link LH showing what has broken. In short , item 010 broke at the hole where it loops over the post on the swinging bracket. The end of the plate on Fig K130xx broke at the bolt holes. When these snapped, we lost items 030 and 040 (on both sides)...

We have a BX2360 (9 yo) and are experiencing issues with the mower rear link. The rear lift link RH (which passes through the frame and is a PITA to remove) literally snapped on one end. And the rear lift link LH (which attaches to the hydraulic lift arm snapped at the rear link connection...

Disregard - I found a post regarding a BX2660 rear lift link...same part #, same problem.

We have managed to break the rear lift link (K2581-44202 - item 010 on the attached schematic) on our BX2360. When it broke, the lift bosses (both upper and lower on both sides - Item 020 & 030) were lost in the grass somewhere. From looking at the diagram, I can see how one removes the broken...

The ground wire leading from one of the headlights was shorting. After disconnecting the map assembly, the light would flicker on/off as I jiggled the black wire. Apparently, that short took out the other headlight and the dash lights. It is a bit of a goofy design as the wires are stretched...

My issue with the T-Series is the deck widths...currently have (and need) 54" and the available T choices are 42" and 48". The GR series offers 54" (along w/ 48") but they are pretty pricey. Crossing fingers that the G1800 will keep rolling.

Yep - that is a tight fit around the positive terminal. It has been a great mower for 28 years...hope for many more w/ only 1,300 hrs. I don't think that Kubota builds them like that anymore.

The (apparent) solution was the 1st one that I considered...and discounted. A battery can read 12V and still collapse under load. She roared to life after swapping batteries. Ocham's Razor. Still a bit glitchy with the electronics...the gauges work but the headlights and dash lights are out...

Hi everyone - 1st time poster. Had an unusual day yesterday with my G1800 (1992). After 5 hours of mowing, I parked, "turned off" , removed the key and started to walk away until I noticed that the tractor was still running. I re-entered the key, turned right and then back to "off" to see if...
