    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Idiot tax! I hadn't heard that expression before but paid it last year when pressing a new front wheel bearing in my brother's Jeep Latitude. Damaged the magnetic ring so I offered to buy the needed replacement ! Bill

    Messicks wins again

    I bought a cap from ebay https://www.ebay.com/itm/146443695399 I was making a fueling set up for my L2501 and would assume they take the same cap. I will have to see if I can get a picture from my phone. I made a hole in one I got from ebay and it fit and looks like a pretty good clone for a...

    Replacement parts

    I know I am no help here but, I heard the rumors of hydro transmission whine. I have to wear hearing aids for hi frequency loss and I knew I didn't want to hear that. That is one of the reasons I went with a gear drive. I mute my hearing aids and wear earmuffs over them if I am going to be...

    Is kubota's QC slipping? GR2120 /B3200

    First new car I bought was a orange 1978 gremlin X. I was looking for something good on gas and didn't want a pinto or something like that. Married with 2 kids so needed room for 4. It had some kind of Volkswagen/Audi 4 cylinder with a 4 speed manual. What A pc of crap. I paid the dealer for...

    Diagnosing Damage From Operation During Overheating

    You list it as a LA525 HST, that first part is the loader number not the tractor. You aren't listing your tractor model.

    Front pto shaft failure.

    Is that a plug on the opposite side from the male connector? Maybe it is the right block being used the wrong way?

    frozen backhoe pins

    I'm looking at it this morning and wondering if with the tires off, could you use a magnetic base drill on the frame mount and drill the pins. It might take a few setups and sizes but some of those newer bits really cut fast. Their name escapes me but my son works for a bridge construction...

    frozen backhoe pins

    I worked with a guy like that, couldn't get a drain plug started on a piece of german made monofilament machinery. So he would hit it with a hammer while turning it with a wrench. Didn't quit till it was stuck but not tight and then refilled it with oil. I got the job when production complained...

    Another non user here. Won't find a can of it in my garage. I am convinced it attracts rust. Bill

    frozen backhoe pins

    Thinking now your right about the outriggers. I put my BH77 on a dolly and use only the boom and bucket curl to get it loose at the pins and curl to then lower the BH to raise it out of the lower hooks. Avoiding the outriggers completely because I am in the garage. Bill

    frozen backhoe pins

    Along with spraying and getting the pressure off it with the stabilizers I wonder if you could carefully try a pickle fork/ball joint fork under the retainer pin area if you have one that is wide enough. Might get it to break loose that way? I have a set of chisels for my air chisel that...

    G2460 fouling #3 plug

    Those F85's were a great looking/running car IMO! I remember my older brother having one with a 4 speed and probably that smaller v8. I was a year or 2 from having a license and wanted one of those but never had one. I wound up with a 64 rambler American with a 196.6 straight 6 and 3 on the...

    G1900S rear wheel studs question

    I wonder if there is a lug bolt in that thread size that you might use instead or maybe a shorter stud is available. Don't know the thread and I am in the US so I go to places online like Rockauto or Mcmaster-Carr when needing something like that. Bill

    Bad Welds?

    I have that kind of conversation with my better half. I use my line of "it doesn't work like that" in explaining something she doesn't understand but in a polite way. My other line is" you can't beat math and science". Getting back to the loader arms I don't have your design skills but have to...
