I bent it back and made operable again, tends to bind when it gets warm though. Will order replacement today.

Did the hoe have the hydraulic power to do that or were you using the tractor when pulling on the stump?? Really surprised the hoe would have that much power built into it.

A hydraulic shop could probably make a new rod for much less than a new cylinder from Kubota.

the hoe bent it. I was curling the ripper tooth against the stump and lifting out of the hole.

bcp, I am going to check on that. i think it is $185. from Kubota.

That's surprising. I would have expected $400-$700 from Kubota.
