We recently bought a small farm for our retirement. Part of the deal was an old m4900sud 4wd tractor, I think it is a 2004 year model. This thing has seen some hard usage. Right off I had to rebuild the engine. That setback was approx $1300. Runs great & compression increase well worth the cost. Here we are a few months later and my right front wheel locks up. As it turns out, the gears, bearings and everything else inside the housing including the gear case housing is shot. Started pricing replacement cost to include new tie rod assembly for both sides. I can buy the wheel cover assembly to include bearings, seals, etc for a little less $280. The lower bevel gear alone is $300.00. Gear case housing $866.00. All essentials added up to approx $3100.00 & that is just for the right front wheel. I am looking for help in finding some cheaper parts or possibly someone who has an old front end that I can bolt up and go.
I love Kubota but this is ridiculous.
