BX Alternator upgrade kit

[Junkman]

I just called the office of Kubota that handled the dealers in my local area. Probably would be the easiest way to contact them and ask the question. Try Kubota in CA at 209-931-5051. From what I was able to discern, different people answer questions on the different series tractors and the person that handles questions for the BX series might not be the one that handles questions on your series tractor....

My local Kubota dealer here in Austin said that alternator kit runs $327 !
Ouch. Where can I get one cheaper?
Thanks,
JBX

HappyTractor, can't tell from your bio what model you have...
Can you be more specific? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

Something wrong there...I paid $160 or thereabouts for the heavy duty alternator on my BX2200 this summer, and they even gave me the original alternator/regulator that came off to take home with me...

I think the dealer priced it wrong...perhaps the wrong part number? I would have him check it again...or try another dealer...

Guys/gals, we've plowed this furrow elsewhere (at least for the BX machines)...
