Hello everyone, after coming through posts I am still unable to find a definitive answer to this question. I have a new to me L3800DT with very low hours. I want to add rear remotes. The kits for this tractor are not available directly from Kubota anymore for some reason. Nate from Messick's parts says that the 1st position kit with the base is available but he may have to try and cobble together the other 2 positions from individual part numbers, not a cheap solution.
So, my question is whether anyone on here knows if the rear remote kits for the L3901 are interchangeable with the L3800. The old part #s for the L3800 are:
L7334 - 1st pos & base with valve
L7364 - 2nd pos kit (needs valve separately)
L7384 - 3rd pos kit (needs valve separately)
L7374 - 3 pos spring center valve
L7354 - 4 pos float detent valve
The parts for the L3901 (which are still available as kits) are:
L7211B - 1st pos with base & valve
L7212A - 2nd pos kit needs valve
L7213A - 3rd pos kit needs valve
L7231A - 3 pos spring center valve
L7232A - 4 pos float detent valve.
From everything I can tell from the two install manuals the place where it interfaces with the hydro return on the right side under the seat looks the same.
Does anyone have any experience with this issue or have recommendations? I'm waiting to hear back from Nate after a few calls with him being very helpful & really wanting to figure this out too.
He said it's really weird that this problem only exists for the L3200 & the L3800. Every other tractor, many much older, still have all kits available. It's this because of some of the interference problems I've read about with the original kit's levers & placement?
Thanks for your help!
