    Front Axle centering pin

    I see a thread on this front axle pin related to a B7200 and it brought to mind my M4700 which the WSM indicates has a grease-zerk to lubricate the centering pin. My ‘96 M4700 does not have the zerk and I have considered drilling and installing a zerk... or ordering the later PN/housing to...

    New Armstrong-Ag Disc For Sale, Save $500

    SOLD I bought a Disc Harrow I do not need. I was advised it would repair hog damage to my turf aircraft runway but I found a used compactor-roller did the job alone. If you need a well-built Disc Harrow, this 20-disc, Armstrong-Ag (built in America by Texas Aggies) is in virtually new...

    Finish Mower

    My rotary cutter is a Rhino 72" unit that is rugged but doesn't cut evenly. Tractor Mike has a video that basically says sharpening/replacing the blades is wasted activity. The premise is that a rotary cutter is a shredder.... designed to chop/hack/shred roughage, small shrubs, etc...

    Bent supports on shredder

    I always used a simple 3-pt hitch to my 72" Rhino shredder (rotary cutter) and never had a problem, but when I bought the Kubota M4700DT it came with a quick hitch. I mowed one day with it and no problem. My step son came out the other day and offered to mow so we hooked it up and off he went...

    Wrong Topic Selection?

    I posted a question over in another Topic area and have rec'd no responses that I was certain to give me plenty of help. Then I realized I rarely visited that area also because I wasn't interested in "buying decisions" because I'm generally disinterested in questions like "How much is this...

    Cooling System Maintenance

    The OM on my 1996 M4700DT (5-cyl. diesel) doesn't indicate anything other than standard automotive anti freeze, but the Ferguson compactor/roller I own has a John Deere 4329 in it. The Svc Manual on the JD mandates special antifreeze to avoid "cavitation" on cylinder liners due to detonation...

    "Easy Checker" repair

    Bought my M4700DT used from a guy in Buda, Tx. He was the second owner, the first owner bought it from the Baytown, Tx Kubota dealer when it was new in July 1996 (that info obtained from the selling dealer.) While it is low-time (less than 500 hrs...hard to understand why a tractor that's 22...

    (SOLD) AgMier Mohawk RT72 Tiller Like New!

    SOLD I bought an AgMeier Mohawk RT72 Tiller (gear driven) from the Kubota Dealer because I was misguided to think it might be useful in correcting hog damage to my grass runway. I never used it. It had been sold new to another person who died after one time use in his 1/4-acre garden, so his...

    Fuel Filter Leak at exit elbow

    My M4700 has the paper fuel filter with the plastic sight-bowl and paper filter. It has a shut-off lever which does not work. (The fuel cont'd to flow when I opened it up to clean the filter. Made a mess.) Anyway, cleaned the filter etc. But the problem I'm really posting about is that...

    Model Specific Forums

    I'd wish that the moderators/webmaster would allow the creation of Model Specific Forums discussions.... or at least Model Lines... such as L-Series, BX-Series, M-Series.... so we could discuss items more specific to our particular models. Let's start with the M4700/M5400 series...?? :D

    Pin On Quick Hitch (Kubota OEM Part)

    Kubota used to offer a Quick Hitch for Pin On attachments that "hooked" under the upper pin and then you inserted the lower pin into the bucket or forks or whatever. I believe it was a PN 75565-36100 and was superceded by PN 75565-36800. I have also seen one made by a guy up in Canada on ebay...
