Kubota B6100 4x4 with new threads and shoes

KubotainNH Your set up is the same block I have for the factory port. David, . . . . I think you have the switch under the seat?! That would be a pain switching back and fort. I have both so I would be able to use the block on the port like Kubotain does and still have the aux pump dedicated to steering. The loader dual valve is PB with a output return as well. Then if I ever build a grapple fork I can use the under seat valve to operate that.

Thanks for the thought process guys!

Personally I think I would use your aux pump for the loader, I also have a rear blade and I am forever switching knobs and levers going from Loader to 3PTH blade.

I never have to touch that knob. The 3 point hitch is in line after my FEL. Works like a champ.

Hi Smokinhart. Would you be able to provide information on what you are running for wheels and tires on your B6100? I have the same model machine and would love to bolt on the same wheel and tire combo as my turf tires aren't cutting and I don't want to put on ag tires. Any info you could provide would be much appreciated.

Awesome job on the restoration! That makes me want to spend more time with my b7100. What loader are you putting on it?

I had a B6100 years ago. That's what sold me on Kubota. Those things are tanks! Nice job.

Thanks for the kudos.

I put an ARK 515 loader on it after those pictures were taken several years ago. 78" lift 42" bucket and front mounted crankshaft pump. New three spool valve . Works well ... Even built a belly hydraulic reserve tank in the frame. I'll post some current pics soon. I don't use the tractor much and even considered selling it this spring. If I decide to let it go I'll post on the appropriate board here to let y'all know ...

10 x16.5 skid loader tires on back and 6x10 loader tires up front. 6 ply are tough to mount on these rims! Kept the gear ratio within 2% if I remember to avoid drive shaft wrap differences.

Welcome back smokinhart. You did a great job on that tractor. And I'll ask for SilverLakeFab, what wheels did you mount the tires on?
