    B6000 Battery Charging Problem

    Hi again Dave, yes when I got the tractor I did buy some 1156 LED bulbs and they worked somewhat, can't remember if I got that flicker that some LED's are known to cause, but with the reflective part of the rear of the headlight assembly being not so good they weren't much better that the...

    B6000 Battery Charging Problem

    Hi and thanks very much Dave for the added info. From my recollection of the particular wire that was broken off it was the short wire highlighted in pink (which is actually red)from the headlight switch to the rectifier that was broken off hence why the charging system wasn't working. It wasn't...

    B6000 Battery Charging Problem

    Hi Dave, on mine there are 3 wires coming from the dyamo to the wiring harness. As I reported the headlights seem brighter, but the reflective part on the rear inside of rge headlights especially on one has deteriorated with condensation and rust. I'm hoping the headlight housings come apart, as...

    Older B6000 namely I think 73-77

    Hey thanks for the info. Well it took a couple ounces at least. Barely a drible came out. I doubt this machine has been that deep in water to affrcy the front hubs but that will be my next check on fluid level/inspection. I've only had it in deep snow so far.

    Older B6000 namely I think 73-77

    I found the tiny fill plug, as well as what appeared to be a drain plug on the oppsite side of the steering box. Hardly anything came out whrn i removed it so I topped it of with 80W90 gear oil.

    Older B6000 namely I think 73-77

    Thankyou for your replies and information, you sort of have to understand I'm learning about this unit, and the free or available online manuals are jinglish and don't really ilustrate or explain well, probably on purpose by kubota. When I get back home I'll look for this plug indicated in...

    Older B6000 namely I think 73-77

    Thanks for the reply. Other than removing to inspect I dont think tgere is much if any danage as itseems to work fine once the weather warms up. If there is any fluid in that area to lubricate it may either be contaminated, low or non existant. Steering seemed tight, almost blocked/locked when...

    Older B6000 namely I think 73-77

    Thanks for the reply. From what one individual said that the steering box isnt connected anyway fluid wise to the transmission, and one can see up through from below. Not the case with mine, i can't see anything from below except transmission housing. Doesn't seem to be anything borken once...

    Hi all don't seem much info here on this li'l beastie. I recently acquired it with a fel and a smaller than LA340 backhoe. I'll try n upload some pics. The Kubota manuals I've acquired online aren't very informative or descriptive. Someone must have adapted the fel and the hoe to this unit, not...

    Original rear Tires

    Hi all, recently acquired a B6000 4x4 (from what I'm finding out around 73-77) with a fel and a tiny backhoe. It seems the front tires have been replaced with carlise AG tires but the rears are pretty cracked but still holding air and are AG in tread design but they seem to have awfully deep...

    Hi all. New here. Acquired a B6000 with FEL and backhoe. Still learning about the little workhorse. Interested in learning about the charging system, and if the attachments are kubota. Also have found steering won't turn when its cold out, probably transmission oil lubes the lower portion of...

    Hi all I'm a newbie here. Just acquired an oldie it seems. Still have to find and verify the actual year from the VIN plate where ever that is. I'm told by my local dealer there's a plate on the frame at the front. It has a fel and a backhoe. I don't think they're OEM but functional. I'm not...
