here is that link I posted about like 5 minutes ago... https://www.kubotabooks.com/AutoIndex/

There is a website that several have linked to already. the website is something close to this rough memory of mine: www.kubotabooks.com ? in it they have in PDF format (all that i saw) of manuals and service manuals for many of the older tractors. I found one but not both manuals for mine, its...

So I made a mistake in thinking. Here is the link to my post that I had planned to put in this thread.... instead I'll just share this jump to my post over in general repairs.... https://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/threads/how-to-gently-remove-the-top-of-the-transmission-on-l2250.464496/

i've been to and downloaded the pdf of the user/owners manual for this puppy. 1) after a serious pressure washing the decades of mud buildup, got it clean enough to see and break the bolts and nuts loose. 2) got out a chisel and hammer to test if thats what it needed to pop that lid off the...

wellll dang this sucks.... no files to look at.....

I’m starting this thread to placeholder so when I have power for the phone I can actually search threads. It seems the high - low transmission shifter is stuck in the lower 4 gears from this “shuttle shift” design….. I know my way around search engines but, this time I’m falling on my face...

this is why i posted the neat pics of the chain driven shaft flipper. I was figuring either a mototrcycle chain setup or a cam chain setup from like a typical v8 block. snag a couple extra sprockets with sealed bearings and then, drill a few holes in the thick sheet of metal and test it out...

IT was a hobby idea to see if I was able to actually make it work.... as for the hydraulic pump and motor setup ... wow $1000-2500 is a wake up for this idea. I have a complete system for the 3 point backhoe that i was thinking of using for the testing. its a PTO Pump, inline filter, tank and...

so I have been curious... there are several ideas out there but, I have not found one close to what I want to see how costly it will be. Its a well establish adapter to put a PTO reverser on tractors or Unimogs for snow throwers etc. This design I find very enlightening because it is talked of...

looks like I will finally be doing this in the late spring to early summer. as for what parts cost.... holy cow! I'm a gearheaded geek and I dare suggest that the "kit" its a bunch of needed worn out parts as well as others that very likely need a cleaning and not to be replaced. but, what do I...

i'm curious with a "blind" suggestion (pun enforced) about the stuck part inside.... have you thought of using the air compressor with the air gun attachment and a rubber plug to seal up around the air gun nozzle so the air will push it out from the opposite side that you accidentally inserted...

I am currently hunting for threads i thought I had saved about "power Beyond block" modifications. Your question has been answered in quite detail with pictures in other threads on this forum. Specifically in other tractor models. I just did a search with quotes around the two words power beyond...

I’ll findout Saturday when I go see it & hopefully buy it. My 1998(?) 7260 standard 4WD is in a coma currently (thread in here already) and I was thinking about swapping that front axle under a 2003 7360. The 7360’s front axle is advertised as needing front wheel seal replaced. I figured...

well guys. we have big rain in the forecast tonight, all day tomorrow, and late sunday night into very early monday morning. When thats all done. heres the list of "to do" on inspection and teardown. A) read the service manual details again & print off needed pages B) figure out the best way to...

just updated the other thread..... heres a copy/paste of what i have for y'all: today is Oct 12th.... been distracted by several other tasks. decided to look at the oil one more time as i did try to just crank it with the water pump, radiator & hoses removed back on the 6th or 7th ... put the...

today is Oct 12th.... been distracted by several other tasks. decided to look at the oil one more time as i did try to just crank it with the water pump, radiator & hoses removed back on the 6th or 7th ... put the battery on charger overnight back on the 5th... a good friend let me borrow one...

Update with pictures. In 1st & 2nd pictures (same picture) the Green outline is the hose in question. The purple line is the approximate quantity of material that had clogged this 1/4” coolant hose & the brass drain valve . The water pump came off very easily and it was spinning correctly...

yes. Exactly. I just posted a very long reply on this cross-posted question in the cub cadet sub-forum with a lot of data to your questions. THIS right here is why I’m think of the cause. Both you guys are talking why I’m thinking it’s the cause.

The coolant mix was actively gurgling over the top and out the open mouth the cap screws onto. And it was bubbling out quickly over the testing theses last 2+ week tests. I’ll be removing the flail mower off the rear & FEL with neighbors help today to gain lots of elbow room for getting at the...

So it’s midnight… I sincerely meant to give a bullet point style history of this topic… So onwards in reverse timeline, of sorts… Pictures will be take in daylight tomorrow as will that short video and setting up of the you tube account to upload these videos too. Over the last 2+ wks now I...

See previous 2 reply’s… /well, back to work…

Thank you, thank you, thank you… will download and look tonight…

This evening I’ll gladly give you a highly detailed breakdown of all the coolant troubleshooting/cleaning/experimenting/ laser temperature sampling I have diligently done over the last 4+ years.

any pictures of your solution too?

I have the Cub Cadet 7260 with the Mitzu 1.3L diesel block I have cross posted this in the Mahindra forum......( byte tongue) I hope this is allowed..... I have read all over the place over the previous 5-6 years that the engine is the same exact block. And as such with all those parts...

I have the Cub Cadet 7260 with the Mitzu 1.3L diesel block I have read all over the place over the previous 5-6 years that the engine is the same exact block. And as such with all those parts interchangable..... these all have the 1.3L mitzu block as far as i can tell. 2310 25 hp 2002 - 2006...

So any updates here or there? I have the cub 7260 and via tractordata's page there are like 5-7 variations of the same Mitzu 1.3L motor I have...Angry Johnny, you have the 1.5L it is also in like 5 or 6 MAhindra models over the last decade plus too.

any update?

Right now on FB-marketplace here in my “Hometown” of Denton, Tx is a Ford 917 for a modest $950! (Rolls eyes) it’s been listed for about 2 weeks as of tomorrow.

Curious & legit question folks: does anyone have any really good quality pictures of a flail on a swing arm for ditch work? I’d like to look at the details of the hinge designs and locations. As well as the piston locations & hoe the PRo shaft is safely extended. web search is “meh” so far…...

A local person in Facebook marketplace has a Ford 917 model flail up for sale ~$950 … here in Denton Tx. dang. And I scored mine for $650….

Good news to this wise post is that so many of the “extra lights” folks are posting about happen to be using LED’s. And there have been several - albeit not all - that I have read, the OP or at least someone post on the significantly lower amps pulled from LED’s vs. incandescent or halogens.

So, the picture with the cub cadet behind it was taken Saturday. It had received at least 3 16oz spritzer bottles of the green juice on Friday to look that way. The torched out metal floor was piled up on the gooseneck. Next to that pile is the tailgate I’ll be welding into the little trailer...

I found this on Amazon..... then went to their website... then found out a local dealer is ACE Hardware. Found our local had 2 gallons & was price comparable to Amazon. Got them Thursday. Tested it yesterday with a spray bottle(spritzer bottle) first on the old grinder then the trailer I’m...

Fascinating Florida find.as fore the price, sadly I’m outta touch. As for my gut on the mechanical viability.... the patina doesn’t look scary “enough” to warrant walking away.

Speaking of flails for sale, here’s one on purple wave: https://www.purplewave.com/auction/210608/item/HF9899/Ford-917-Mowers_and_Other_Ag_Equipment-Mower,_Cutter,_Shredder-Iowa

Shoot, over the last couple years Deere 25’s that are under $1000 are not for sale long..... I missed out on each one that was in the $500-$1000 range. I ended up with a ford 917..... as seen back in the thread around page 640-ish I think? best of luck and welcome to the club.

So I had done searches last year and just “saved” the page 1 of what seemed viable threads on a desktop over 19 months ago. That folder? ...gone. The had been comments made in threads on the mahindra had at least 1 model that was a cub cadet clone. Problem is I can’t figure out what key words I...

My 917 came with an actually new belt when I got it... I’ll try (during daylight this weekend) to rotate it to see if the writing is still on it for ya. I don’t recall the brand name of it either.... I didn’t write it down in my notes when I got it - bummer for both of us. BTW my posts with...

Skateboard = flatbed (OTR jargon, I used to be a driver-trainer OTR) Box trailer = shoebox Oh and yes, LOA is what I’m using 32’ to be defined as... and funny you said “breadbox” ... it was a retired bread delivery unit too. So here are correct parallel web image examples. Axle position and...

I drive past Them every time I go out to our lake house... and again when I drive home. A name I see a lot around the DFW area on trailers too. I have 2 GN’s. A home/shop built “skateboard” & a “shoebox” (forgot brand name & it’s an ex-bread delivery unit) that are both 32’. Skateboard is a...

Wow, *Now* I understand. That’s a seriously long slot to have a pin slide fore & aft in! That is definitely a speed bump to adapting for a quick hitch setup with that amount of slop.(for lack of a better description.

May I ask for a picture of your own Quick hitch model? So I can fully grasp what your worried about please?

1st) I don’t own one, I did a fair amount of searching for one. Missed out on two eventually. 2nd) regarding the Quick hitch setup, I’m at a loss as to how the serial number is a serious “stumbling block” given all the images I have seen of all the years it was made. Every one I can recall...

This “warning” fascinates me from a purely physics stand point. I think I need to go chat with my long time mentor on this project and what y’all have raised.... I’m not thinking any disrespect here at all. I’m in full education mode currently. To add context to where I thought this was a...

Or the twin tennis balls on magnet antennas? (In case they have a big cross bed toolbox etal)

Having read threads /seen/downloaded pics of several ideas here and other forums over the decades.... I have one to share here. I’m Up-cycling (pun enforced) to provide better visibility regardless what’s I’m doing in OR off the lil’ tractor. found the local cycle shop (Sprockets) and asked...

Snag it!

Normally. Yes. I ran out a couple months back. We have 5 +\- vehicles in the household and 2 riding mowers as well as the cub. Getting ready to sell/pass on at least one of the old riding mowers.... The battery clamps and other terminals is a normal alert that I check on everyone when I pop the...

Well, it’s the weekend. I fully admit not reading the whole 14 pages.... I have a curiosity here. Why are you going brand new trailer? Have you decided to go GN yet, or are you still on the fence? I used to be an OTR driver trainer, 5th & GN are so much easier on my brain and anxiety. I have...

/Facepalm it appears as though the positive clamp on the battery had "just enough internal corrosion" as that "clicking noise" I heard yesterday when it went dead must of been the last spot and it arched over? As I had the ignition in the "on" position while taking off the terminals (by...

Tractor data: ~2000 m/y Cub Cadet 7260 4WD manual shifter w/ 417 FEL & Ford 917 Flail mower Yesterday (Saturday noonish) while building a special pallet for the transfer tank I was prepping for 1st mowing of the back yard. Fluid levels = good Battery = good (very recently desulfated) Zirk...

Messick's ..... Sorry my dyslexia and waking up teamed up to cause an oops.

Pictures of your dead one will allow you to likely find a replacement with minimal effort online. Just realize YMMV.

1st thing I'd do in your shoes is locate (online) the manual. Usually it's in a PDF format for free. 2nd is breakout the tape measure for every concievable detail. The length overall when fully open & closed. Length of shaft housing with tail connection. Diameter of hole the bolt goes thru. Same...

So I recently acquired this backhoe in a less then cared for condition. I found a few issues and have fixed them for current stable use. (other pictures of it posted in the BH use thread and another thread as well, IIRC) This question is should I try door #1 or door #2? Or do you have a Door#3...

Okay here are some questions based in ignorance. The old hay bales spike that is mounted in bed of truck had a electric motor die a rusty death. As this system is a power up gravity drain dedign, may I safely assume that one could safely do the following idea even if my vocab is wrong...

So I've slept some, read some & read some more. I have drawn up a rough schematic of hydraulic flow from comparing manual to the pipes on the cub. Some notes referring back to the 1st picture on post #13 #2 = hose return to tank from PBY block (this hose goes up above engine and then loops down...

I've reading up on PTO pump filter setups and I guess I want to ask what micron level you personally use on your PTO pumps? I know how subjective this is and how anecdotes are very valid. I prefer them as it draws a better picture for me on what your environment is and why you chose a fine...

I just got home from a local JD dealer that used to be a Cub dealer as well.... I have learned some new vocab but, not sure how to best search the forum with these words.....because they are so common in our language that the engine should give me nearly every thread in the forum... Raw data...

So here's what I've been doing for a few months now. Making lists of viable sized backhoes & flails for my Cub Cadet 7260 (~25hp) The fun of this has been complicated by going through warranty replacement of my phone 4 times since last May. My lists had disappeared or got delete by my mistake...

"Teacher, my brain is full, may I go home?" (Yes I've slightly paraphrased but, I have only gained more respect for his humour over the decades since reading them in the paper) Okay, I'm a couple hours deep and still have at least a dozen more threads (in separate tabs) to gleen through and...

This idea came to me a couple days ago and its based in solid logic from my heavy partisipation in the ultimate subaru message board. Where we were figuring out the bolt on parts for theoretical or proven improvements of our Subies. Cases in point: 1) we figured out the direct bolt up swap of a...

From what I've come to understand "power beyond" in theory or should I say practice? It is basically a way of Daisy chaining hydraulic impliments like surge protectors? I've tried several times to do search's and gotten distracted by life off line & either mixed up memories or forgotten what...

I've tried to search here and also in googles main page and just can't quite find the root. The Mahindra BH76 as its advertised is made by ______? I recall looking at a bunch of threads on BH stuff, the most awesome thread being this info-jammed one here...

So I have these wondering thoughts: advice prior to this was in the separate thread on changing the temp sensor when I swap out the thermostat. I had already ordered and received the thermostat & gasket to replace. Have not done it yet as the chicken coop is almost done & I haven't used it...

1st off, I know this is one of those "I should be able to solve easily" thoughts in my head but, I'm not finding an easy solution so far. I have done the garden hose wash out of radiator twice and used the pressure washer on the engine bay(not the rad core) too clean it off good. here in...

so, here are those pictures, with a bit of notation here too. previous picture i posted of "page 84 or parts manual" has parts #18, 25, 26 & 27. you will notice in tha couple of pictures here that the 'dogbone' section of #25 is flipped to have the "C clip" now on the piece with #26. Reason was...

first thing i did was removed the cover plate next to seat to give me seated access to the linkage rods and stuff 'position feedback linkage' ? there is a rod ~1/4" dia. with a couple of washers holding a compressed spring, ~2.5" long on the end thru a hole in top of the "Arm" I pushed to the...

1st, I'd talked with others IRL (in Real Life) that have done this with small tires like this one.... 2nd, you see the method is kinda like getting dough to rise.... the foam has to be sprayed in and allowed to drop to the bottom initially and then you have to quickly but, gently spray it onto...

now the pictures in that order.... "Well, Isn't That special?" - Dana Carvey as The Church Lady from SNL. Okay got that fixed. Sorry.

-[edited because i finally found the way to accomplish this little addition] here is what I'd like to use. (fingers crossed I get to upload it here as a newbie)

Even thought I did my best to keep the tires all aired up .... one finally gave up. the sidewall has cracked so bad the rubber has partially separated from the ply's in a small area. having read this thread today while searching on a different topic...

I've got a theory/question to a problem...the 370D is a gravity feed fuel line to the injector pump on side of engine block. What if I put a low psi electric pump inline (for test/purging/bleeding the air out) to help with getting fuel to the injectors when i loosen each pipe at the top of each...

So This oddity gets its own thread. Specific stats: cub cadet 7260 4WD standard diesel While cutting up the soil & removing it to put in a chicken coop with cement foundation..... the twin curled blade type tiller (don't remember the correct name for this old school tool) was cutting great...

(newbie wave) I've spent the last 90-odd minutes with the search functions and tried what *I thought* would be wise words.... struck out across the board. Problem: hydraulic system is water contaminated.... by me, accidentally- it seems. I went to pour some sealed 5gal. jug of TSC 303 that i'd...
