Hi all. I have a Kubota L225 with a Johnson work horse front end loader attached. Over the winter I removed the loader and had the tractor in my shop for some routine maintenance. I lost some fluid in the process of detaching and reattaching the loader. My question is, are the hydraulic fluids...

Hi, I have a problem with the rear wheels on my L225. The rims have rusted out and need to be replaced. I haven't been able to find any. I have a feeling I'm not looking in the right places. Any help will be appreciated.

Need some help with a neighbor's L225DT that makes gear noise in 4wd. Took off the side gearbox and found the idler gear inside the case is very loose on its shaft - it's center needle bearings are missing - likely disintegrated and in the bottom of the case. The gear is not broken but it's...

Just wondering if someone could verify that this is where I check the hydraulic fluid level. The manual I found is not very good. I like to see with pictures. Do I just pull out the bolt and if it squirts out it is overfilled. Also what is recommended fluid to use? I found some tractor...

There is a 1978 Kubota L225DT with loader and backhoe, diesel 24 hp engine 1481 hours on it for sale about 3 hours from me. The guy is asking $8,500. Looking for a little compact tractor, was originally looking at getting a new Kioti DS3510 with FEL and hoe, but that would be around $25k OTD...

Hi. I have a few questions about my early 70's Kubota L225. There is an oil cap in the centre of the housing below the steering wheel. What is this for? Should it be gear oil or hydraulic oil and how do I check the oil level? There is a nut under the seat on the LHS that looks like it could be...

Hi all, I'm need to put new brakes into my L225 soon. It looks fairly simple, but I have a question. I'm wondering if it is necessary to remove the wheel to do it, or does that just make it more convenient to get at the brakes? I haven't purchased the shoes or new drums yet, so if there are any...

I have a older gray market Kubota L2000 that is the same as the L225. The bearings in the steering box have gone out. Anyone know where I can get a good used or new complete steering assembly at a good price? Kubota in San Antonio tx says that is no longer available. Hard to believe. Doug

Does any one out there know where to check my hydraulic level on a 70's L225? I just bought the tractor and have changed the oil and oil filter, fuel filter, greased all points on my FEL. I just can't figure out where to check my hydraulics, I've followed all my hoses, I must be missing...

Tractor started running ruff. When I start it and take off for about 30 yards then it tries to die. I have to feather the throttle to keep it running. Then it clears up for about another 30 yards and it start all over again to keep it running. I think my problem started when I bought diesel at a...

Guys, I'm new to tractors, anything larger than lawn tractors that is. I recently bought an old Kubota L225. The cosmetics are fair, and the engine runs great. I noticed some new bolts (red flag) in the shifter cover. Sure enough, before I even got a chance to plow with it, it hangs up. It seems...

Ok some of you know I have a L5450 which is about the best tractor on earth - it is big, heavy and powerful. But I've been looking for something in between the venerable 5450 and my Craftsman hydro lawn tractor. So here's my "new" 32-year-old L225DT. This dandy little one-owner rig has under...

Does anyone here have a PDF/doc of a service manual for my L2000? I know it's a grey market beast and yes, my local Kubota dealer refuses to even discuss it with me or sell me a manual for it. I hate them. When I bought it, it came with a parts manual for a L225 which looks exactly like the...

Bought a used L225 several weeks ago and it is a great tractor. I first used it this past weekend and noticed that the rear lift is a little jerky when lowering. It makes it hard to put a box blade in a precise position. Should this be a major concern, can it be adjusted or should I just...

My father has a kubota L225 machine and he's wondering if a transmission for an L245 will bolt up to his engine? Or can parts from the L245 transmission be used in a L225 transmission. Any info you can give me will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hello all...my first post in the Kubota forum. A buddy of mine has a L225 with about 1100 hours. It has a fresh paint job and runs like a top. I told him, though my experience is mostly with older fords and JD, the tractor is worth about 2500. It is in good shape both drivetrain and body...

Due to a broken PTO shaft, my L225 currently has its transmission apart. We have also discovered that the main shaft shows significant wear and should probably be replaced. Kubota now sells a "main shaft assembly" that includes some new gears and costs $1,059, way too much!! Does anyone know...

After reading this wonderful board for months I purchased my new to me tractor about a month ago. It was supposed to have belonged to a school and had a belly mower on it, which by the way I did not get with it. It still had all the hardware and mounting hardware attached. I tried to remember...

Dear Abby, 3 years ago I bought a used L225 from a Kubota dealer showing about 900 hours. From the same dealer, I purchased a new 5' King Kutter bush hog. Since then, I have put about 60 hours on the tractor and about 8 hours on the bush hog. While mowing last weekend I hit a small clump of...

The Bride's dad has a small farm with a summer house up the mountain, keeps an L225 w/woods finish mower in the basement to mow with. We were there last week for a few days so I mowed for him, about 2 acres, a genuine pleasure to operate. Don't know the year model, but think he bought it new...

I noticed an L225 on the roadside today for sale. Had a 3' box and a 4' rotary cutter, and a few other small implimints. The tires were turfs. I didn't get a close look to see if it was 4wd or not. Looks very used. Anyone have any info or specs on this model tractor? Thanks, Soundguy

The clutch on my L225 is stuck, will not disengage. Never heard of that as a potential problem until I read some posts on this board. I assume the plates are rusted together. Anything to try other than splitting the tractor? I have tried driving the tractor, working the clutch and brakes...
