To make a long story short my steering needs either rebuild or replacement. I tried to order the complete steering assembly for my B7200D (67401-41103) and there are none available, in fact they haven't been available from Kubota for quite some time I hope this doesn't turn into NLA I have also been told just the steering shaft/ball assembly (67211-41120) is not even available also hope this doesn't turn into NLA
There is a possibility that the shaft/nutball assembly from a B7100 may work but shaft is 2" longer (I can live with this if I have to) My local dealer did have a new B7200 assembly from a HST model that they sold me reasonably but it is 2" shorter and does not have the same dash panel mounting points. Not sure where to go next. If any forum members have encountered or solved this problem I would be happy to know what you did.
Thank you Vic for sending the pictures of your rebuild. I hope that you will not mind me cross posting from my dash panel removal thread as I feel this may be of interest to other OTT members
