kubota b7500

I'm brand new to the tractor world, and would be grateful for any advice. I'm about to purchase a tractor, and have narrowed my choices down pretty much to a Kubota B7500 and a John Deere 855. The Kubota is a 2002 4WD with about 300 hours on it. I belive it to be geared, not hydrostat. The...

Hi everyone, I have a quick question for you. I recently bought a loghome on 6 acres that came with a Kubota B7500HST, LA302, brush cutter, and alot of other attachments. Here is the deal...the tractor is newer (The house was built 3 years ago, so I think the tractor is approx 3years old). It...

I hope the wifey took a pic. Lots of storms and rain over night and while bored thought I'd bush hog some high weeds in the yard (MMM ain't made the trip yet). Being me, one thing leads to another and never hooked up the bush hog and was moving small drip piles around. Made one trip too many...

Has anyone bought a B2320? Anyone upgraded from a B7500 series to a B2320 or one of the others? I've been all over the place with what to buy, but have narrowed it down to a great deal on a B7500/B7510 or a new B2320. Any input on the 2320/2620/2920 with a loader? Is it stronger than the...

I'm still out searching and trying to find a good deal and the right tractor. Does anyone know the difference between a B2100 and a B7500? It's hard to find that information on the internet. I think it's just the year, but not sure. Thanks for any help, Tom

I'm thinking about buying a B7500 HSD, but not sure if it really does have the power needed for a bucket, digging, etc... Also, what about a tiller, brushhog, etc? Can everyone who has or had one give their opinion? I'm thinking about getting it for the house to mow with the belly mower...

Hi, I haven稚 had much luck doing a search on this topic so am hoping someone here may be able to advise me on tyres for a B7500 as I know absolutely nothing about them. I have just bought a B7500 that is about 2000 hrs old, not very "pretty", but otherwise sound and with a newer engine...

I have had a B7500 HST for over 5 years now and I just love it. Especially with all the modifications I've made. I mostly use my tractor for mowing and usually never use full travelling speed. One of the rare occasions I do want to go fast is for snow plowing the driveway. A couple of months...

The valve to control the loader giving me problems! When I put it to float, I could not get it back out. I had to take the bottom part off the control valve to get the bucket off the ground! Was really gumy and rusty in there. Got all the ballbearings and the spring (4 little ones & one bigger)...

Hi, I was mowing backwards (down a hill) and didn't realize the sway bar turnbuckle had disconnected. The sway bar went into a hole as I was backing up. The bar ended up vertical in the ground. The problem is the connecting rod that goes between the sway bar and the MMM bent into the...

Hello: I purchased a new B7500 back in 2003 and it's been running like a champ up until this week. I hooked up my rotarty cutter and engaged the rear pto to do some cutting. When I depress the clutch to disengage, it just wants to grind. I have to turn the key off and shut it down to move it...

It has bothered me for a while now. The little 'Bota B7500 working it's tail off, and it gets in a bit of a strain and a puff of black smoke rolls outta the muffler.. The baby 'Bota just keeps on mowing, bush hogging or whatever and no complaints...But that smoke kinda worries me. I'm pretty...

Sometimes the 272 fel on my B7500 will not go down except in the float position. It will go up, and into dump and roll back positions, but it will not go down unless I put it into the float position. I have checked the fluid level and all connections several times, but can find nothing wrong...

Hi, I just picked up a slightly used B7500 and was curious as to what was the wheel width most people have them set at. I'm new to tractors and would appreciate any help and advice from the experienced. Thank you.

Hope someone can help me, I picked up my first real tractor yesterday a B7500 with just 60 hours it looks like the previous owner barely used it. Anyway after trailering it the 80 miles home I noticed as I was going over it again the right rear wheel did not have the bolt or cotters going...

Just finished a full servicing of my B7500HST. When draining the fluid from the front axle, I found that the drain plug is very close to the tire rim. Very difficult to get a pan under it.

I hope you knowledgeable tractor folks will oblige one more newbie,(first real tractor) I have a chance to buy a used B7500 w/ 302FEL and low hours for a good price. Would this tractor be enough for a 35 acre piece that is a small hunting base camp? it would be used to mow maybe 2 1/2 acres...

I've read the other "won't start" threads, but nothing there seems to apply to my older B7500HST. No seat interlock, no fwd/rev, clutch, pto interlocks that I can see anywhere and wiggling those levers doesn't seem to help in any case. There is an interlock relay between the keyswitch and the...

There is a 3-4 year old Kubota B7500 HST with a 4' bushhog, LA302 FEL, and 60" mmm. The tractor is showing 320 hours. It has been kept in a drive-in shed over these years and shows what I assume to be normal wear and tear. It runs very well from what I can tell. (Remember, I am new to all of...

Why would my front tires spin and my rears won't when pulling on logs? But all is fine when there is no load on the tractor. I jacked the tractor up and all seems tight. Is the front end driven differently than the rear as far as the clutch is concerned (ie a seperate electronic controlled...

Would love some help here. I have been torturing myself on which tractor to buy (first it was if I should buy one). I stopped looking a couple of months ago and just started back up. I came across a 2003 B7500 DT (120 hours), with a FEL, R4's, and a new Woods BH6000 3pt backhoe for $12,900...

I need some help figuring whether a trade is worth it and if so what the $ difference is. Somebody close by has a Kubota L3410 with 357 hours, clean, fairly new tires, and an LA 481 FEL and is asking $12500. He wants a smaller tractor better for just mowing. Don't know the year. I have a B7500...

I'm in the process of designing a backhoe for my B7500 tractor and could really use some pictures of how Kubota attaches the subframe to this unit. The local dealer hasn't been much help, no B7500 at all, let alone a backhoe version. I don't want to re-invent the wheel and have some concerns...

I've read a number of threads on this subject, but most looked to be a few years old so I'm hoping to get more current opinions. I'm looking to purchase the Woods BH6500(looking for a used one) using the 4 point sub-frame (new if I can't find one used). I have the LA272 FEL. My questions are...

I'm considering a new Woods BH6000 for $3800 that I found. On a shipping pallet w/12" bucket. However, I need to get sub-frame and a Woods dealer quoted $1100. Are they really that much??? Makes the $3800 not such a bargain. Any comments???

I have just joined this forum and find it full of great information. I am trying to buy my first tractor for 80 acres in Central Texas, mainly for building a new house. No mowing, baling, haying or anything like that. Will probably mow about 4 acres max. But I do not forsee any tasks this size...

In viewing some older posts, I see some people can access Kubota records to find the selling date. I can tell from the engine number that the engine was built in 2001 yet I when I bought the tractor, I was told it was a 2003. Can anyone help clarify? Oh yes, my serial # is 57442

I'm looking at a B2650 front mount snowblower for use on my 2003 B7500 HSD. The snowblower was bought new with a 2004 B2410 HSD. Both tractors have FELs (LA302, LA352) and RCK60-24B MMMs. Does anyone know if the subframe and PTO are the same for both tractors? Also, the current owner of the...

I was mowing the pasture when my 5 year old B7500 (<200 hours) sputtered and then died. I tried to restart it, but no luck. It cranks and tries to start. I get some black exhaust smoke and it seems like it wants to run, but dies. I was thinking fuel problem of some sort, because it will...

I have noticed this since tractor was a year old. A gear whine from front axle & this seems worse when in 4wd. I am just new to this forum as of yesterday & you folks seem very knowleable about all Kubota. Has any one else with a 2003 B7500, manual trans, 200 hrs. had the same or similar noise?

I currently have a B7500 with a 272 FEL. I spoke with the dealer about getting a deeper bucket and he said the only way was to upgrade the whole FEL. I was wondering if there are any aftermarket buckets that will fit on my FEL. I am fine with the width all though 5 foot would be nicer. I...

My B7500 HST has a sticky pedal going into reverse. It's not noticeable all the time but when she sticks, she sticks. I'm now thinking the pedal sticks when full depressed, so that's what makes it interemittent. I've looked under the tractor but can see nothing lodged in the linkage, so now...

Just bought a b7500DT with 245 hours on it, it has a 60" belly mower and it does not have a scratch on it. It must have been kept inside a garage, because I could not tell the difference between it and the new ones. Paid $8k for it, was this a good price?

Okay, I'm tractoring again. I thought I had the leaky front wheel thingy fixed, but nada. I thought I'd over filled the front end, which I think was created some of the drips, but today I watched the tractor drip, drip, drip from the right front wheel. Took off the tire and wiped it all...

I am the proud owner of a new (to me) B7500 HSD. As I'm sure most have done with their new toys, I read my owner's manual front to back last evening. First off, I must say that I was a little disappointed in the quality of the info in the manual. Some of the areas covered were about as clear...

Kubota B7500 HST with 60\" finish belly mower Hi Guys, I'm new to Kubotas and was wondering how people like the 60" mid pto belly mowers as far as mowing quality, ease of removal etc. I have the chance to buy a B7500 with a LA272 loader, 60" belly mower, turf tires, 4x4, 98 hours, a 2001...

I have a 2 y/o B7500 hydro with 175 hrs. While using the loader to move snow I have been hearing what seems to be a squealing noise coming from underneath the tractor or from the front end. It only happens when in 4wd and more in reverse. It seems to get louder after working it awhile. I put the...

I've been watching the classifieds and equipment traders for a used B series Kubota for quite some time. I found a local B7500 HST w/ LA302 FEL. 450 Hrs. 3 pt rototiller, 5 ft. backblade, and a landscape rake. My question is: what is a rig like this with these implements worth? I know what...

The first accumulating snow of the year was in my driveway this morning. I decided to run the rear blade down the driveway a few times before heading to work. The first thing I notice after starting the tractor was that the FEL could not be raised. The control lever had been pushed forward into...

Here comes the pics of what I encounter this summer bush hogging. The area... You can see what I've been thru.

Your experience on this would be appreciated. I live in the ridges of western PA and get 4 - 8" of snow with drifting for 3-4 months. I have to clear a 35x35' garage entrance, 50x10' of concrete driveway, 600x12' of private blacktop road plus an entrance that the township refiills regularly...

Just went over the 350 hour mark on my B7500 and she's a dandy! I think it's at 353 now. I got the garden tilled under drug fairly smooth and then got the ole Scotts spreader (the kind you gotta push, agggggh) and put down 25lbs of winter wheat and 200 lbs of pelleted lime, and I could have...

I've been doing some early tractor shopping for our 5 acre lot (house done next spring). Something around the B7500 seems right for the work, and the land is flat. I've found a listing for one with 120 hrs, loader, 60'' mmm, and bb for $8500. If the hours are actual, it seems like a good...

Well I've had my winch on my 7500 for a while now and I finally got to use it today.There was a huge tree limb that broke out of my neighbors tree.It was still attached and was too high to climb up to cut so I decided to try the winch out.I hooked it around the limb and pulled it right out and...

I'm still thinking about a BH for my B7500. Will the B7500 dig well in hard soil like say "Your backyard"? I know the B7500 has 21hp but is that enough to handle a BH? I don't want to start digging with it and have to listen to the tractor grunt and strain. I understand that it will not perform...

I need some help with a 3ph hydraulic problem. I purchased my B7500 last year and it performed flawlessly. I use the tractor only for mowing with a 60" mid mount mower and, with the mmm removed, with a 48" brush hog. I keep the "implement lowering limit" adjusted so my brush hog remains...

Happened a few months back....was just curious on the outcome...

I have read the previous posts on overheating, but I am not sure my symptoms match those exactly. I have a 1-1/2 year old Kubota B7500 HSD. In the past month it has started overheating almost immediately when mowing. I can run it all day without the PTO engaged...no problem. I can run it all...

B7500 Exhaust system The exhaust system on my B7500 comes out next to the left front wheel and I was wondering if anyone has thought of routing it somewhere else? Mine blowes black exhaust fumes on some of the front loader,and I also get to breathe some of the fumes. Any ideas???, or...

My dealer quoted me $700 for parts and labor for rear remotes. Two hoses and two connectors can not be that expensive. Does anyone know what is included in the kit and is the price normal?

I've been thinking about looking into buying a backhoe but I would like to know if they really dig well.I know my 7500 is only 21hp but will they dig good? I've seen pictures of some BX's and their BH's but does anyone have any pics of a B7500 HST with a BH and maybe with it in use? It's not how...

Time for my 50 hr service, changed the engine oil and filter. I have my Super UDT, HST filter and the hydraulic filter. The two filters look the same but have different part #s. Is the HST filter the one next to the transmission strainer? Thanks Mike

hi all, My B7500 that I seldom use has started stalling when I try to use it to cut grass. It will start up fine when it is cold, and works perfectly for a while, but then it starts to bog down when I come to an incline, and eventually it will even start to loose power on level ground. It...

Am I the only one who has had this problem? I posted this with my B7500 a year or two ago, and now the same problem with my new B7510. It is the clevis pin that the lift chassis pivots on just behind the reverse go pedal. Last time I had to "mark" the clevis as to the absolute minimum the...

Hi All, I have been faithfully greasing my B7500 mmm every 10 hours. I didnt read the manual very carefully on the locations for the fittings, and went about greasing the fittings. However one night I was bored and picked up the manual and noticed that I should have been greasing a fitting on...

Mulching Kit For B7500/7510 60\"MMM? I've never seen or heard of one, but maybe someone has. I tried to get mulching blades before, but the dealer said my options were only the "high lift" or "standard" blades. Anyone found a mulching kit or mulching blades for this animal?

Well my B7500 now has 301 hours. I picked up the filters for the 300 hour service, shhh don't tell but I did some of it with 299 hours. The dealer's recommendation. Change oil, fuel and hydro filters. Check the front axle fluid and mine was nearly a quart low, the dealer seen no reason to...

I sat on a B7510 seat yesterday and it sure beats the pants off the one I have... well my B7500 seat beats my pants compared to the new seat! The B7510, or what appears to be all of the new "B-Line" seats, seem to be more comfortable, more erect, and just nicer in general. Anybody retro a...

I recently noticed that the dealer who sold me myy tractor installed the rear tires the wrong way. The center hub is on the wheel backwards such that the tires are way out... the hub is on the inside of the rim toward the transmission. I thought this was normal until I saw a PROPERLY set up...

Well, I got my first flat on my tractor. It's on the front and I cannot figure out where it's comming from. I've looked and used soap and water and still no luck. I found a small cut and checked it really good but no luck there either. Would a can of fix a flat work? It goes flat overnight...

I appreciate all the feedback I received on my post regarding getting rid of my B7500. I researched the possibility of resolving the 10% issues I have with the B7500, because quite frankly, I love at least 90% of the tractor! So, that brought me to the first item....looking for a new set of...

The seat and mounting for it on my Ford 1210 had deteriorated to the point where something needed to be done. This prompted me to do a "two-fer". I had wanted to try a suspension seat on the 'Bota, but the seat and mounting on it are almost like new. The solution was to get a suspension seat...

I recently posted on the Kubota board about my thoughts of selling my B7500. From the various feedback, I think I may have purchased a little bit more than I really needed. The B7500 is a fabulous unit, the LA272 FEL has proved very valuable, and the 60" MMM does do a good job, except that my...

Thinking \'Bout Selling the B7500 I have a B7500 that I really love, but am thinking about maybe making some changes... maybe to a different model. I wish the 60" MMM cut a better cut. It always seems like I get a rough looking cut after I am done. I do not know if it is due to the weight of...

I am looking into a B7500 2003 model with loader. It has 156 hrs on it. Dealer asking 11,000 is this a fair price and can I add a mower to it Thanx.

Well hooked up my brothers only single bottom plow to my B7500 and after a few adjustments and a bit of learning I'm even more impressed with the power of the B7500. Amazing little machines... I usually just till my garden but after 3 years decided I may try turning it over and working up...

60\" MMM for B7500 What are used 60" MMM going for? A fair price. Good shape. 3 years old June. New blades last spring. Normal nicks, scrapes etc. ZTR fever has a holt of me... I hate it when I get in these moods. Though if'n the price was right on the buying the ZTR and selling the 60"...

60\" Box Blade on a B7500 I was wondering what size Box Blade would work best with a 7500. Kubota states 54" max. Does anyone use a 60" and how does it work? Thanks, Ray

B7500 w/ MMM and 16\' trailer..... I have a RFM for my B7500 right now but I'm thinking about buying a MMM but I wonder if the tractor will go on a trailer with the MMM attached without dragging? Donny

Hi everyone. A new member here who needs a little help. The little lady and I recently built a new home on 3 acres on the Mississippi River Delta. Flat, sandy loam, no trees, no grass, only recent years soy bean stobs sticking up in the air. We knew we were gonna need a tractor to get the...

Hi folks, I originally posted in lildozers' "2210 or BX2230" thread - because I felt I had similar needs - but GregJ suggested that I start a new thread - so here I am! **************************** I've been thinking about getting a CUT for several years - even visited a few local dealers...

I've had this tractor for 10 months now and it has always jerked, 1-2 inches, when starting off. Forward, reverse, hi range, low range. At 88 hrs its almost gone in low range, but is still annoying in high range. It also poses a safety issue, you know, fingers in hitches. My Kubota dealer hints...

Well in the neighborhood of 275 hours and I love my B7500. Messed around in the ole garden spot a bit last weekend, tossed down some winter wheat, and I hope it wasn't too late to start a bit of growing, but what the heck a few hours of seat time to level out the soil and under $10 for the...

I hope it's okay to post this, I have a new set of rear tire chains for a Kubota B7500 listed on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2590235969&category=46566&sspagename=STRK%3AMESSE%3AIT&rd=1 I ordered these new chains when I couldn't find my old ones. Of course I found...

I'm thinking of buying a 7510HST. They are suppose to be arriving at the area dealer this week. Will it do the job in the snow????

I recently purchased new Kubota B7500 4WD with industrial tires and discovered in was useless in mud. The rear tires have fluid with 6 psi air. The new tractor will not do the work of my 2WD Yanmar 1700 in mud. What can I do?

Good Evening TBNer's I need some ideas and advice. I am going to purchase a backhoe for my B7500 this spring and am getting all kinds of conflicting information about this. First--I am told to be sure to get a sub frame mount. Then I am told don't bother with the sub-frame, it just costs more...

Has anyone had any problems with leaking seals? At around 400 hours I had to replace 1 of the front axle seals. Now at 600 hours the upper seals on both sides are seeping. I'm sure some of this is due to front end loader usage but just wondering if anyone else was having the same problems.

Hi folks, It was -38 on my thermometer this morning at 5 am. So I am typing kinda slowly. I wanted to clarify my choice of the B7500, because so many of you had commented that the b7800 was a better choice. If I had only the one rig I would agree whole heartedly. My main use of this...

First I'd like to thank the people who replied to my query. I appreciate your opinions. Everyone agreed that the B7800 would be the best tractor. So in perfect form I decided to get the B7500 and some implements. Mainly I needed a Lawn Mower and the B7800 is a bit bigger and cannot use a 54...

Opinions please! I have Just traded a JD4700 with FEL and JD48 Backhoe for an M6800 with FEL. I needed a Bigger tractor. The dealer has given me an opportunity(as a multiple purchase) to trade my JD2210 with FEL and 54MMM for a B-7500 FEL and 54MMM. I need the smaller deck due to the very...

And last, the link adjusters.

The rear hydraulic controls

The lights it controls

Thanks to everybody here at TBN. I am sending some picts of upgrades that have been done on my B7500. Without this forum none of these would have been done nor would I have known that they could be done. First I changed the front headlights from the stock 1156's to a 55 watt halogen that uses...

Just when you think it is done, it starts up again. I go Kiwis (the fruit). My vineyard is planted and trellised with a pergola system that has wires running horizontally through the field at about 6 feet off the ground. These wires are very, very strong and have very little give. In chosing...

I was constantly catching my jacket on the PTO shift lever. The grinding was driving me nuts. So here is a latch idea to secure it. Latch is available at your local hardware store.

I'm building a house and am looking at purchasing a box scraper for when I get to landscaping time. (I've heard them called Box Blades, too--or are Box Blades and a Box Scrapers two different things?) Anyway....my question is: Should I get a 5-foot or a 4-foot box scraper for a B7500? My...

I have a B7500 with 23 hours listed on ebay #2572619185 Robert

I am purchasing a tractor in the next 30 days and today I received the following quotes from a Maryland dealer: B7500, Hydro, 60"MMM, LA302 FEL w/48" bucket, R4's...$15,500 BX2230, 60"MMM, LA211 FEL w/48"bucket, ag tires...$12,600 Good prices? Bad prices?? I tried to price at a NC dealer but...

I\'m comparing the BX2200 and the B7500..... I have a B7500 and I've noticed that ALOT of the users here have the BX2200 and I was wondering what is the big difference between the two?? What made you make the decision to but the BX over the 7500?? Is there something I'm missing or is there...

When changing the fuel filter on my B7500, the manual says you should bleed the system after installation. I don't have the manual in front of me, but I think it says something like "fill the tank with fuel, start the engine, and run for 30 seconds and then shut it off". Is this all you need...

I just picked me up a kodiak brush hog this morning for my B7500HST and it works like a charm. I owned a Branson 3510 before my kubota and I like my Kubota much more. So far my Kubota has matched the 35hp Branson. I was bush hogging weeds and small bushes that was over 3 ft high and I never got...

First, thanks to all the previous posts, I used this group heavily to find information before making the big purchase. This is by far the BEST and most information discussion forum I have ever seen. Would appreciate feedback on tire chains, I have a B7500 HSD w/FEL and turf tires. I have a...

Thanks for all the feed back in regards to the trailer. I decided to go with a 5x14 dual axle with elc. brakes. Should work perfect for my truck and the tractor I get. Things I have learned from the follow ups The CK20 has a better fel and lifts higher, The B7500 hold thier value more then...

I'm bouncing back and fourth between the MMM and the RFM for my B7500 and I was wondering about how much they cost? I want an Orange one that matches my tractor.Does anyone else make those in this color other than Kubota and Woods? How high of grass can you cut with a MMM?, and how low can you...

Hey Guys, I've been presented with the option to buy a couple of different machines. Which would you buy? 1. Cub Cadet 7200. This is a 20HP Diesel, 4WD, Power Steering, and 6/2 Trans. Comes with FEL and has 224 hours on the meter. Probably a 1999 model. 2. Kubota B7500. Same basic...

Have my search down to a B7500 hydro with 302 fel and R4's. Priced at 12,900. A kioti CK20HST with 120 fel and R4's came in at 11,288. I test both of them anbd the Kioti seems to be laid out better and seem to idle much smoother (honest). The B750 only weighs 2100# with the fel and this is...

Hello all, We own 88 acers in S. Ohio and are in the market for a small tractor to do some leveling, brush hogging and keeping the place clean. We would also like to disc a few small food plots. Looked at all the postings and took many test rides and came down to the Kioti CK20HST with 120...

I am about to purchase a Kubota B7500 and have some lingering questions about whether the 21 horsepower engine is the workhorse I need for 11 acres in Piedmont Virginia. The land is rolling with some wet land near two streams. I have a 5 ft Ford bushhog deck and a 6ft road blade. I am planning...

I just found out the B7500 has a 2nd PTO speed on the rear and I think it's a 960 rpm. Has anyone used it and if so what?? Can you use it with a RFM or would the 540 rpm be better?? Donny from Georgia

Now that I know more about my FEL I can get to which mower to buy. My wife asked about buying a new lawn mower next spring and I told her I have a new tractor. Can my B7500 mow as good as a riding lawn mower?, if so what should I get a RFM,or a MMM? I know the MMM is alot more expensive. What...

After a year of reading and trying to rationalize the purchase of a tractor, I woke-up Saturday morning and decided today was the day. At breakfast, my wife asked what I had planned for the day, I simply said - I think I will go buy a tractor. I purchased a B7500 with a 4672 hoe, 302 FEL, 4ft...

I have been unable to find one of these locally to look at. Can someone post a pic of the gear shift location? Also, what size rotary cutter can this machine handle. Great site! Thanks to all. DC

I would like to take the weight of the tractor off the rear wheel so I could tighten that nut and bolt that tends to loosen on some B7500's. The one that helps hold the wheel on the axil. Where is the best jack point to lift a rear wheel? par4thecourse

Has anyone ever installed a Kubota block heater on a B7500HST? If so, what was the cost? Was the job easy or an opportunity to invent new cuss words?

I am going to connect some lights up to my B7500 on the ROPS. My question is there a fuse pannel for the headlights or is their a in line fuse? I would like to splice into the lights. Is there enough amps to pull more lights? Also I'm in the process of adding a warn winch to the front of my...

....by replacing the thermostat. Funny. When I complained to the dealership about the overheating, they never mentioned the thermostat. Actually implied that there wasn't one. A friend recommended his mechanic to me, and this was his first task for me. Bingo.

I\'m thinking of adding lights to my B7500......... I know I saw a post here somewhere about adding lights to their tractor and I'm wanting to do the same. Do I need a bigger alternator or will the stock one work?I will add an extra switch for the lights only, so they will not be used all the...

Well guys I finally managed to take delivery of my new B7500,272 FEL, Rhino SE4 RM and they are great. Now if I could only sneek away from unpacking the house hold goods I could drive the dang thing. I did manage to slip out of the house this evening unnoticed and play/work in the drive way and...

Hello folks I was asked what a 2001 B7500 w/loader and 100 hours on it could easily sell for in the Northeast. It is in good condition and is garage kept. Can anyone give me any guidance? I have looked in the Hotline tractor guide and it does not list it. (At least in the farm tractor guide)...

I do not have my tractor manual and I need to do my 100 hr service. Anyone know what I will need for filters, oil ect.? Thanks, -Terry

I just finished the 50 hr. maintenance for my 2003 B7500 HST, LA302 FEL, and RCK60-24B mmm. I now have two new questions: 1) How do you "lubricate" the "front center anti-scalp roller" on the RCK60-24B mmm, and the "joints of control lever linkage" for the LA302 FEL? Spray WD-40? Grease...

I just bought a B7500 and noticed alot of people has a BH on theirs and I think I would like to have one. Will a Kioti BH fit the 7500 ? Donny

4\' or 5\' on B7500HST ??? Yesterday I did some rotary cutting with a 4' Howse that my neighbor wants to sell (no price yet). I cut aprox. 1 and 1/2 acres of tall (12" or better) field grass and weeds. My B7500 handeled this job without any hesitation. I did not like the fact that the cut is...

When I drove the HST today it was like a dream come true.I fell in love with it and I will have me one soon. I'm getting a LA302 loader with it and R-4 tires which makes it look tough.,and it also has fluid in the rear tires I'm thinking hard about ordering it tomorrow. Is 12450.00 a good price...

Is the B7500 as powerfull as everyone says they are? I'm about 95% sure that's what I want.I've read alot of quotes from here and it seems like everyone is very happy with theirs.I will have to make my final decision in a day or two to make sure I get the low interest rate which goes off at the...

I will be purshasing me a B7500 in a few days with a LA302 FEL. It has regular tractor tires on it right now and the dealer said he could put some R-4 industrial tires on it if I want them.I think I will get them so they won't tear the yard up as much. What kind of tires do you have and what...
