The RC60-71B Fits all B7100HSD's with serial numbers over 61076. Thats the more recent generation of this tractor, there was a different tractor built under the same model number back with the B6200,B6100 vintage. I would not doubt someone assumed that you had one of the older B7100's. The mower deck for the tractor that you have is most certinaly still available. The 60" lists for $2389.

Kubota builds 7 decks for the current B-Series tractors and still supports the older tractors with 14 other models. )</font>

Wow, if he had just asked for a little help he would have found it here. Forums like this are a great place to get help/advice...it's a shame some folks just don't get it.

Hey bleeders of ORANGE, checked back and I am not surprised! As far as the deck RSC60-71B being available for my tractor, do what I did and ask your dealer to do a search in a 300 mile radius and see what's out there. NONE! Whether I could get one or not, at $2300 plus shipping plus wait time is beside the point! Yeah, I got a JD 2210 AND IT'S LIKE MOVING FROM A yugo TO A lexus, QUIETER, SMOOTHER, more powerful, cuts evenly, turns quicker, no rust anywhere, less fuel consumption, a FUEL GAUGE, POWER STEERING! Will I stick with JD for 17 rears like I did with Kubota? Who knows? If, a few years from now, I trash the MMM and try to get a new one and the JD dealer says, "There's a little problem there", will I be pissed? You bet your ****! Kinda doubt it though! Stick by a brand for 17 years like I did, then get told you're a bit SOL, and THEN, tell me I'm a troll! CUSTOMER SERVICE AND PARTS SUPPORT is what this industry is all about. Ask Caterpillar! Meanwhile, enjoy your ride till the next new model comes out anyway.

Joe-

I'm not sure what "Bleeders of Orange" means exactly, but my guess is that you are trying to put down Kubota owners for some reason. I own a Kubota tractor and a Deere LT and love them both. If I was to have problems with either one, I don't think I would join a site and immediately start putting down other owners or try to get them angry (it appears that all of your posts have been devoted to this topic).

If you are P.O.ed, fine you might have reason to be but you aren't going to get any sympathy (from owners of any type of tractor) acting like that.

Take an anger management class, have a drink, or do whatever you need to do but don't deliberately try to anger people here if you want to be able to interact with them in the future.

Here's hoping to better posts in the future,

Bonehead

At first Joe said very clearly that Kubota no longer makes the deck and that none are available. His last post says it is the price that angered him and basically acknowledged that you can still get the deck. Chalk this up to only emotion of a single person, and certainly not representative of the majority of Kubota owners. Something good did come of this whole thread, however. I learned that if I ever look to purchase another Kubota, there is a gentleman in Lancaster county that will surely get my business. With that, I'd suggest wrapping up this forum and getting on with the mowing, loading, hogging and all of the other games we play with our, ahem, toys.

Like going from a yugo to a lexus thats what 17 years of technology and refinements do, and that holds true for whatever COLOR you chose. Hope you have a trouble free 17 years or else there goes another color first Orange then Green. ENJOY /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

you can also revel in the fact that you just bought a tractor thats going to be replaced by a newer and better model within the next 2-3 months. Guess your lexus just became the yugo you thought you got rid of.

Moving from my 1994 B7100 (like he had) to a B7510 was a drastic change. Lots of things have changed in the tractor market in the last few years. The power steering alone was worth the change for me.

I hope he has good luck with the JD or his dealer will be in deep poo-poo!

I just did a search myself and three showed up on the locator. I have a hard time believing that you even tried.
