Kubota grill/face

[czechsonofagun]

My tractor's grill is shot, B1750 has a plastic face with metal grid in it and it was duct taped when I bought it.
Me using it didn't help, now it is pretty much gone. I was thinking building a grill combined with brush shield to fit in front of the radiator, to replace it with original would be probably too expensive.

Ideas? Anybody did something similar?

It's hard to start from scratch ... making something that will blend in with the rest could be more work than just finding a good used one at a salvage...

I don't think the OEM part will be very expensive. Do yourself a favor and google Kubota parts. I found almost all parts I needed for my much older B5200 and the prices from a site I don't recall now. I recall buying a grill for it 4-5 years ago.

Thanks, I guess I will do some research before I start cutting metal.

Parts for these tractors are not expensive at all. Go to kubotabooks.com, download the parts manual for your model. After finding the correct part number google coleman kubota Coleman Equipment - Case, Kubota, Stihl - Sales, Rental, Parts & Service. They will have anything you need already painted the correct color for CHEAP!!

Hope this helps.

Been thinking of building a grill guard for my B1750 just for kicks. Too many other projects to finish first.
