Hi.
My husband has a 1992 Kubita tractor which he has kept in excellent condition. Only problem is that he now has dementia and put gas in the diesel tank! I took it to mechanic who worked on it...

Hi all
I'm a new homeowner doing everything I can to avoid buying a throw-away Lowes lawn mower. I really like the later model Kubotas and I'm looking at a listing for a B1550 with about 2100...
I have a B1550 that when under load is blowing dark smoke out the exhaust and a mist out the breather tube. I think that is a sign of worn rings and may need an engine overhaul. Has anyone done...

The B1550...
Hi from Australia. I bought a B1550 HSD a couple of months ago and I'm just starting to put it to work. The engine is excellent (3000 hrs) but the hydrostatic trans is acting up. Sometimes it...
I just purchased a B1550 and noticed a small amount of smoke comming from the breater tube that exits out on the left side of the tractor. It may be more of a mist than anything and not smoke at...
I have a B7100HST. It has a pretty low lift capacity on the three point hitch, compared with most of the other B-series that I know of. 400 lbs.
As I consider upgrading it with power...
I'm contemplating upgrading from my B7100HST.
My B7100HST is a late-model (I'm told by PO '98) with a Woods DuAl 145 quick-detach loader. I have brand-new turf tires and wheels on it, plus the...
Hello Group,
I have a Kubota B1550 HST that I bought supposedly needing a head gasket. Well long story short it was the head itself that was cracked and not just a gasket. Here are the parts I...

I have a Kubota B1550D and when I press on the differential lock pedal, the rear wheels do not both spin. When I first got this tractor the lever that the pedal pulls was stuck all the way...
I'm looking at a used B1550. One job I could definitely use help with is lifting logs onto a wood splitter. We have an outdoor woodburner and get chunks delivered as big as a couple hundred...

My freind told me that to use a FEL with his 1550, he has to remove the deck. Is this true and unavoidable? If it is, he will want to step in to a more adaptable machine (a BX perhaps )
Any...

The "oil seal" for the front drive shaft on my b1550 wore out (80 on attached diagram). It's the seal between the shaft and the guard tube(40) so I'd call it more of a dust seal.
In order to...
I was wondering if the mid PTO of the B1550 is 1000rpm and same size as the ford 1120? I have a 1120 and I am purchasing a mower deck from a B1550 for cheap and with a few modifications fitting it...

What FEL is compatable with a B1550? I had assumed that this tractor would be too small for one, but I have seen references to people attaching them in the past.
Heres a simple toolbox idea for a B1550 or anything with a similar loader. All I've done is bolt a couple of 'L' shaped shelf brackets to a toolbox. The brackets were first bent to form two hooks...
