New to Kubota-Help with backhoe wuv 200 parts

[TechKnow]

I recently purchased a B7100 front end loader and backhoe with 4WD and manual transmission. Looking forward to the great thaw to begin excavation for new man cave garage project. In the meantime, I was wondering about replacement parts such as pivot bushings and pins on the hoe, hoses and just networking with fellow owners.

Welcome to TractorByNet!

I moved your thread to the Kubota Owning & Operating forum.

I don't know how old your unit is and what dealer parts availability is. I do know that many machine shops are quite proficient at producing pins and bushings for any equipment usually at a good cost savings over OEM parts. In addition to bushings in the bucket, they can do bucket repairs and tooth replacement. Ditto on hoses, hydraulic shops for hoses and cylinders are not hard to find save money compared to OEM components.

Best of luck with your project and the B7100 will love you for fresh engine oil, hydraulic oil and filters all around including air.

That model is the same as kubota B670. You can find parts diagram and parts at Messick's. i have the B670 and I am in the process of rebuilding it. If you search Kubota B670 you should be able to find lots of good information on rebuilding it.

Good Luck!

I have found that Danby drill bushings work really great for replacing the bushings on my backhoe bucket. You need a milling machine though or machine shop to enlarge the original holes and good welding. I recently snagged 15 spanking new 1" id bushings on ebay for 85 bucks with grease grooves and zerks. Let the rebuilding begin.

Hopefully I won't need to replace the arm bushings, but I am planning to replace hoses, rebuild cylinders, and replace some bronze bearings on the swing arms. I have found this thread very helpful:
