Howdy folks, I'm new to these parts. My buddies B2150 front rims are cracked from bolt hole to bolt hole. Anyone ever run into this before? Thanks Dan

That sounds pretty serious. Has he been working it pretty hard with FEL work? Driving it hard in tight turns?
I assume he is not running the tractor with the cracked rims.

Mostly grass cutting and snow removal, but, he has 10 acres . He's about 500-600 off the road so he moves gravel to maintain his drive way.He has access to other loaders so he uses the the right equipment for the job at hand. Rims are on order. As far as working it hard I wouldn't think so he's been on his/his fathers equipment before he could ride a bike. Keeps stuff very well maintained. What is FEL? Thanks Dan BTW I probaly have over 150 hrs on it myself. In fact I used it so much I bought him a rototiller for the back. Its a pretty decent tractor.

We use lots of acronyms here for ease of typing. FEL is Front End Loader. MMM is mid mount mover ect.......
Do you have pictures of this?? We love pictures here to help the left brain / right brain struggles.

You might look into getting a wheel reinforcement ring. It goes on the lugs before the nuts. I can get them from Massey Ferguson, but don't know if Kubota sells them or not. I believe that Unverferth has them for just about any lug pattern.
