    Looking for L1730 FEL loader mounting brackets for L185 / L245

    Yeah, I thought of that too. That's a last resort plan if I can't find anything around. Without dimensions, I'll be guessing on some of the more complex brackets. The simple brackets are pretty straightforward, but not that expensive. I can buy them for a little more than material cost...

    help with new loader on l245dt

    GSD, I have a part and operator manual for the L1700 FEL. Someone wrote "same as 1200" on the front of both and the pics posted of the uprights look the same less the hyd reservoir. There's also parts breakdown of the aux pump. No mention of the mounting brackets in the manuals, except...

    Know where I may find some FEL parts L1730 - L185 / L245

    I recently purchased a used L1730 Front end Loader and 60" bucket for my L185DT.:D It's a bit rusted, but nothing a little sanding, painting, and hydro rebuild won't fix. It was mostly complete as taken off the L245DT that it was on, but missing all of the brackets that hold it to the...

    ROP for a B6000

    Steve I'm surprised the dealer wanted tin install the ROPS. Tell 'em you don't have a trailer... you got plenty of tools just waiting to be used...or that your smarter than a 5th grader anc can handle it. My dealer had no problem with me installing my own ROPS. The L185 Rops was pretty heavy...

    L Series sticking brake

    Yeah Definitely wet brakes...All in the axle...Lots o' bolts. Springs are nice and free, pivots all nice and lubed. I'll play around with it soon as I am working on getting the finish mower deck modified to handle my Cyclone Rake leaf collector. I know pulling the brake up will get old when...

    L Series sticking brake

    Looks like the whole axle and axle housing needs to come off along with the 10 nuts & a couple bolts to get to the brake disc. Think I'll clean around the brake cam input shaft and hope for the best as I don't want to crack open the case and look inside just yet. Anyone have any pics of an L...

    ROP for a B6000

    Here is the link for the ROPs program: http://www.kubota.com/f/safety/rops.cfm If you put your info in, they'll e-mail you a quote. I talked to my local dealer this morning and they didn't really know much about it, but was going to look into it and get back to me. $148 for the Bar and seat...

    Wood's L59 mower deck

    Anyone ever try converting a Wood's L59 for right hand discharge? I have a cyclone rake leaf collector that is ONLY r/h . My Wood's deck is left hand and I want to try and convert it so I can use the cyclone rake on the Kubota. Looks like I can remove the right cover and put it on the left...

    L Series sticking brake

    Thanks gents. I'll be looking at it this weekend perhaps. I am preparing for the fall leaf cleanup and need to get going on my mower deck for the L185 now that I finished (mostly anyway) the resto of my small Case 220. Anyone ever convert a Wood's L59 from left hand discharge to right hand...

    L Series sticking brake

    Osut The springs are all there. linkage is pretty much free. I think it is under the cover. How does one access the area unde rthe cover? I am trying to avoid removing the final drive - can of worms comes to mind. Looking at the disassembly manuals, it looks like the linkage rotates the...

    L Series sticking brake

    Anyone got any tips to free up a slightly sticking brake on an L series? I have an L-185DT and the left brake pedal doesn't want to come all the way up. I can pull the pedal back up the last 1/2"-1" or so, but thats getting old. It is not hanging on the pivot under the trans, so I suspect it...

    Backhoe for L185DT

    Thanks. Bushhog tells me the 1847QT will fit well and has brackets premade. They are about $4000 though. Waiting patiently for a deal on one. I see a lot of Wood's units NOS or used, but they don't have any kits specifically for the L185 L1501 L1801 etc.

    Carl Yes, the rear PTO has a pulley to drive a 59" Wood's finish mower. There is also a mule that attaches under the axle that is not pictured. It has pulleys for the belts to head to the mower deck. I am debating whether I am going to keep it or sell it as my yard is tight and full of hills...
