Tractor
Kubota MX5100
I've been helping flooded neighbors bring debris to the road with my kubota mx5100 tractor when I had a seal break causing a major leak. I had to drop off my tractor at the dealer and won't get it back for at least 5 weeks. With so much work still needing to be done I changed the hydraulic quick connects from my tractor grapple to match a bobcat loaders and plan to put the bobcat style on the kubota. Which brings me to my question. Am I going to have trouble sharing the grapple and grapple bucket between the two brands as I know they use different fluids. ( kubota has udt and I'm sure bobcat has something special)
thanks for your insight.

I would not be concerned . It is hydraulic fluid with a company name . As long as the viscosity is close , proceed .

The amout of fluid in the cylinders is so minimal you won't even notice the difference.

What they said, before I bought another grapple, mine was swapped around between Kubotas and Kioti.
