1972 Kubota L210

[PStreicher]

New to forum.....looking for the last list of parts for family tractor restoration. In need of the following (new or used):
32240-34222, lens gasket (2)
32240-34272, lamp socket (2)
32240-34170, cord with socket (2)
32240-34290, ring (4)
Kubota says these parts are discontinued so I'm desperately hoping someone has a lead on them. Any help would be appreciated.

If you have not already done so, shout out for help on Orange Tractor Talks.

Thanks Roadworthy, posted the same several months ago with no responses.

Can't you just make a gasket out of an old inner tube and and epoxy in an 1156 or 1157 socket?

Does this help?

Thanks Airbiscuit. Problem is there痴 a rubber boot that fits around a metal base plate holding the socket. Then there痴 a lens gasket that sits on top of the plate, the lens then two screws, washers, nuts. Without that metal base plate I知 kind of sol. And no luck with Coleman. Been searching salvage yards too, no luck so far.

Is this what we're talking about?

Is your lens intact? Could you fab up a base of wood or fiberglass?

Yessir, that痴 it. Found two lens at Pillar Equipment and should have them next week. Worse case is to fabricate the metal bases out of galv metal or aluminum using the lens as a template I suppose. But if I can find the parts needed I壇 grab them in a heartbeat. With my L210, I知 starting with having nothing. Back in ?5 or so, my dad and I took turns ripping those assemblies off under some low hanging branches.

Kind of looks like modern art!
