substitute kubota filters

[familyman]

Does anyone know of where I can get info on substitute fluid filters for my Kubota L2800? I don't want to travel 1/2 hr to the dealer and pay too much if I can get a Purolator or some other brand as good as Kubota's at 1/2 the price.

I've had good luck at places that sell heavy truck parts. Luberfiner is a brand name I found as a replacement for a Racor unit which might as well been sold on the moon for all the luck I had finding one locally. Keep in mind if you're looking for an hydraulic fluid filter, you want one that has as fine a micon rating as the Kubota.

Don't ask me how you determine the micron rating of the Kubota filter. Maybe a cross reference might have that info.

TractorSmart did not list an L2800, but did list an L2850 and an L2900. Oil filter was only $6.10 part # 70000-74035. Why pay $4.00 for aftermarket when they will ship OEM to your door?

I know my local NH dealer sells them. Every so often I get a parts blurb in the mail and theres always a section for Kubota replacement filters.

I noticed tractorsmart doesn't list any parts for my L2800, nor have I seen anyone make any post references to it -- perhaps I bought the only one?

Same filter number, same price

I did notice that the fuel filter for my B2910 is about 20% cheaper at the Kubotastore than at tractorsmart or my local dealer (prices same at both places...) which surprised me...

Some of the other things were exactly the same price, like the inspector says... /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

try the wixfilter web site for cross reference numbers and go to local parts store. I think NAPA carries what you want too.

Thanks for the lead, John. I didn't know about Kubotastore and I'm more than willing to have parts shipped to my door. I do enough running around all week w/o having to make special trips for tractor maintenance.

Yes if WIX lists it NAPA should have it or be able to get it for ya, NAPA filters are WIX.

Discovered that in my neck of the woods, NAPA wants $1.75 more for a Wix oil filter for my B2710 than my dealer wants for OEM. /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

Amsoil has engine oil filters for a lot of Kubotas, top notch but they are not cheaper than the OEMs. I was not able to cross reference the hydraulic or trans filters for my L3410. I was able to determine that the Kubota hydraulic filter was only rated nominal (60%) at 60 microns. That is pretty sad. I added a low pressure hydraulic filter right before the cooler that has a 10 micron rating (probably nominal also).
