i had to remove the front frame from my Kubota L225DT to do some repair work and am looking for the torque specs in reinstalling the 3 bolts and 2 studs that hold that front frame to the engine block. Appreciate any input. Thanks Dan J

My fellow orange tractor owners, i am in need of some advise. i need to remove the front axle on my L225DT in order to gain access to one of the four bolts that hold the pinion housing to the front diff/axle housing. One of the four bolts broke the bolt head off. See pics. Anyhow, from what can...

Used the ol' L225DT to grade my backyard. The digger with the rocks on top was made by my uncle for my dad years ago. After using it to break up the hard soli, I was able to attach the box scraper I rented for the day to finish smoothing and leveling the soil. Just about ready to dig sprinkler...

I've graded and leveled, the best I can, my backyard using my 5 point digger and FEL and now I need a box scraper or similar to take all the highs off and smooth things out. The soil is really hard and compact when its dry. Does anyone have a good, inexpensive alternative to renting a box...

As the subject suggest, the water pump on my L225DT with just under 1,000 hours is making a growling sound intermittently and when it does, I can feel extra vibrations emanating from the pump. Does this usually mean the pump is on its way to failure?

So I had the fuel injectors on my L225DT pressure tested and all three barely dribble out fuel as opposed to a fine spray pattern. The fella that did the pressure test for me asked if the engine ran and i told him it actually runs quite well and only puts out black smoke when accelerating. My...

Can someone tell me the max lift capacity of the 3 point lift on my L225?

Can the hydraulic pump on my L225DT with a 3.7 GPM flow rate be swapped out for a higher flow pump with the same hydraulic pressure from a larger tractor like the L245DT, L295DT and so on that would bolt right into place? The cycle rate is dreadfully slow:( Thanks

Does anyone know if the L275DT has a gray market counterpart?

Just noticed a pool of hydraulic fluid that most likely came from the left side bucket ram. Anyone swapped out seals on these before?

I recently inquired from Kubota main headquarters in California what my 1976 L225DT would have cost new. They tell me it would have had an original suggested retail price of $4,500. I just saw a 1976 L225DT with 1,200 hours sell for $5,200! Man, buy a kubota, use it for 34 years then turn around...

While using my FEL, as i curl the bucket down, it seems to hit a dead spot and it'll momentarily stop curling then resume after about 2-3 seconds, almost as if there is air in the system and it has to re-pressurize. Any idea what could cause this?

Anyone know of after market manufacturers of tiller tines for kubota 3pt tillers? My dealer here in Utah wants $12 a piece which isn't bad but just curious to know if there are generic tines i could make to fit? Thanks,

The other day while performing some rather vigorous front end loader work cleaning out horse stalls, i noticed a little bit of hydraulic fluid pooling at the base of the gear selector lever on top of the transmission. It hasn't done it since then and i completed the cleaning of the horse stalls...

My dealer gave me the following tire sizes for my L225DT and i just need to know what the numbers mean. The front tires could be 20.5 X 8.00 -10 or 4.00 X 15 The rears are 12.4 X 16 Also, anyone know of a good source for replacement tires? The tires on it now are a pretty aggressive deep...

I am having difficulty locating parts for the FEL on my L225DT. Would someone happen to know what models of FEL's would have been installed on my tractor? It is kubota orange with the Kubota name plate on it and it has the twin sticks for loader raise and lower and bucket curl. Any ideas? It...

Has anyone converted a twin stick controlled FEL to a joystick controller? It'd be for my 1976 L225DT. I'm wondering if my low flow pump would be even be sufficient to power both lift and curl of the FEL arms and bucket?

Service Dept Vic, Just wanted to thank you for the article of changing hydraulic fluid as well as cleaning out the suction screen. I changed the fluid and cleaned out the suction screen on saturday on my L225DT and, WOW, how dirty both were. It amazes me that my hydraulics even worked and...

Anyone have any tips on draining all the fluid out of a front end loader? And then, tips on refilling the FEL and being able to bleed all the air out? Thanks, Dan

My L225DT seems to start missing around 1800 thru 2200 RPM and then clears up after that. I have tried bleeding the fuel lines all the way to each injector but this didn't seem to correct it. Any ideas?
