Discovering Cylinder seals for BH75. Pricing discrepancies.

[KauaiJohn]

I found http://www.kubotabooks.com/
(THANKS! for this Web Site)

Anyway, I figured out that the pdf shows part numbers for the seal kits
Dipper: 7K501-32302 <<
Bucket: 7K501-43300

I figured out that what is stamped is the assembly part number
Dipper: 7K501-32021 <<
Bucket: 7K501-43011 <<

none of these numbers entered into the Kubota USA web site return anything.
This site is useless: https://apps.kubotausa.com/quick-parts/

However I found some stuff here which helped me confirm the assembly vs seal part numbers:

B34000 CYLINDER(BUCKET) [COMPONENT PARTS] HYDRAULIC CYLINDER EPC Kubota online

ku-part.com

I -finally- found the right parts @

Messicks | The Equipment Parts, Sales & Service Experts

www.messicks.com

It will be $267.

Coleman Equipment: Kubota Authorized Dealer - Construction Equipment & Parts Sale and Rentals

www.colemanequip.com

has similar pricing

The ku-part.com site won't show me a price.

I found what is suppose to be the same kits @

Search results for: '7K501-32302'

All States Ag Parts is the leading supplier of tractor, combine, skid steer and other ag-related parts to North America. We sell new aftermarket, remanufactured and used parts.

www.tractorpartsasap.com

Here they have two options, for just the Dipper kit, but both priced together are well under $50!

Someone is scamming me.

It is amazing to me how lousy these web sites are. I spent 6+ hours today and a considerable amount of time yesterday trying to find the parts I need. Now I'm stuck wondering which company is trying to rip me off.

I've dealt with All States Ag Parts before and those parts aren't Kubota OEM, they are aftermarket. I bought a radiator for 1/5 of the price that works great but wasn't OEM.

The Kubota seal kits for the curl cylinders on my lA402 loader were something like $60 each (with shipping).

I took the cylinders to a local hydraulic repair shop last year and the cost for them to replace the seals and o-rings was $100 for each cylinder. So for $40 extra (out of my pocket) they did the work and the result has been perfect.

Aftermarket fuel cutoff solenoid for my BX2200 was 20 percent the OEM price and has worked perfectly for a year or two now...

No scam...just a fact that OEM prices are high..."what the market will bear" kind of thing I suppose.

On closer examination of the parts being offered by All States, they actually will not fit my Back Hoe.

Thanks for the idea of looking up the local hydraulic shop. I didn't think there would be one accessible here. But a nice lady came over to pick Lychee yesterday and highly recommended them. Her dad has a construction business.
