    B5200 wiring

    Anyone have a wiring diagram. Spent most of the day looking for the owners manual and couldn't find it. Haven't seen it in decades. Somethings gone bad with the hazard lights. The lights themselves work. The switch was corroded internally but I took it apart and restored it but I'm not...

    Paint

    I have a B5200 made in the 1980's and wondered if anyone knew if they used lacquer to paint them. I'm getting ready to paint mine and a few stubborn grease places I've been cleaning with lacquer thinner and the paint is dissolving. That's usually a hint the paint is lacquer.

    Hydraulic Pump

    Does anyone have a ballpark idea what it would cost to have a hydraulic pump overhauled on a B5200 tractor. The tractor is 34 years old and I had to remove the pump to replace a freeze plug behind it and thought while the pump is off it should be overhauled, especially since I plan to put a...

    Rubber boot

    What do you guys do to replace the rubber boots on some of these links. This one is the steering link on a B5200 tractor. The parts manual just shows the entire rod instead of the boot. It's not like a tie rod end, the end is welded to the shaft as one piece. Mechanically it is fine, I just...

    Shift lever on a B5200

    This morning I went to replace the rubber boot on the shift lever on my B5200 and noticed there was quite a bit of dirt in around the ball at the bottom of the lever. I removed the snap ring and the bolts on each side and easily removed it and cleaned it but can't seem to get it back together...

    Came so close

    Re-painting the hood of my B5200 and had planned to paint and stencil the lettering on the side "Kubota B5200". Seems like the last time I painted the hood the labels were very expensive so I left them off. This evening I found the labels at Coleman Equipment for about eight bucks each...

    Silly me.

    On my tractor I've spent the last week taking parts off it to paint and I found another one where they just painted everything. That would have been a lot easier don't you think.

    Brake drum

    I'm working on the brakes of my B5200 and one of the drums is scored pretty bad. Anyone ever have them turned?

    Battery charge light

    I have a B5200 tractor. The battery charge light stays on all the time on my tractor. I assumed the battery would run down until I could locate the problem but months have passed and the battery is being charged. Any thoughts on why the light stays on?

    Part numbers

    I just went to the dealer to order parts. I got the description and part numbers from my 1984 Illustrated Parts List. Then I find out Kubota has changed all the numbers making the book nearly useless. Is there a website somewhere that will convert the old numbers to current ones?

    33 year old B5200

    According to the serial number my tractor was built in 1984 however I bought it new in 1987. It's been a pretty good tractor but I need to re-do it again. About eight years ago I split the tractor and replaced the clutch but I cheaped out and didn't replace the clutch fork. Not long after...
