I've got an old B8200D with a rudimentary electrical system; headlights, rear running lights and rear flashers. I'm about to tug a 5x8 utility trailer full of Brownie Scouts through a parade, so I decided to do a bit of work on the electrical system. Ended up putting in a brake switch and...

Well, kind of. I wanted a set of forks, but didn't like any of the clamp on designs, and didn't want to pay for a dedicated set since I have a pin-on bucket. Fork material was 1x2x.125 box, welded into a 1x4 rectangle, because I had some left over from a previous project. Finished length came...

Kubota B8200Dt with a BF300A loader. When I got it it was smiling pretty badly, top and bottom of the bucket. With some creative chaining and jacking, I removed most of the smile, and in fact put a bit of a frown in the bottom of the bucket. Still wasn't strong enough for me though, so I...

A while back my wife and I moved from the city out to the country (at least it was before all these mcmansions started popping up everywhere) with a little house on 6 acres. I bought a kubota B7200D with 5' RFM for general mowing and tractoring duties. One thing I gave up when I moved out here...

When I first moved to my new place (6 acres) I picked up a B7200D with a 5' RFM for mowing duties. 1000 hours, and never a problem other than a dirty fuel tank (how quickly I forget; also had to split the tractor to replace the transmission shaft pilot bushing and replaced the clutch while I...

A while back I saw a tiller in the paper. $500 for the tiller and a handful of other implements. Bought it. The tiller is red, and has snapper written on it. Has a slip clutch on the intermediate shaft; appears about 42" wide. Chain drive. Has a ~2:1 reduction on the input gearbox, a ~2:1...

I have a B7200D gear drive. Because it's gear drive, and a smallish tractor, I have to drive it with my knees splayed out to the side a bit to be able to move the gearshift. Unfortunately this had the effect of my right thigh constantly hitting the 3pt hitch lever, raising or lowering the...
