Kubota B6200 ball coupling replacement

[B6200]

Hi, I was wondering if anyone out there has replaced the ball coupling between the clutch shaft and transmission on a kubota B6200 gear drive 4wd tractor. It looks like the tractor needs to be split to replace the coupling. I am also looking for a service manual at a reasonable price. Any information and procedures would be greatly appreceiated.

Ebay Item number: 7541667633, is a detailed parts manual. It’s a cd for $20.00 plus $3.00 shipping. They say they have other manuals so you can check with them… or you can go to tractorsmart.com, where you can download the parts manual for free, and order your WSM … I don’t know about your specific problem but most things on Kubota tractors is pretty straight forward, easy enough to get accomplished, once you get a start on it. Good luck, KennyV.

Ball coupling replaced. I split the tractor in two parts. Taking it apart was not a problem. Re installing is another issue. Lineing up the clutch shaft is easy. The four wheel propeller shaft can not be installed prior to coupling the tractor back together. The four wheel shaft spider yoke is attached after and is a little tough to get at and install roll pin and safety wire. The job is done took me 14 hours. It would be nice to have extra hands for this job. Anyone with a B series tractor with 900 hrs or more should inspect this coupling. A lot of damage can occur to the clutch and pilot bearing if this joint is worn and not replced. If anyone needs information on this let me know.

Fourteen hours … sounds pretty good… or at least quite an adventure. You saved some $ and discovered some interesting things. Congrats on the fix /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif. KennyV.
