Minnesota WTB Kubota tractor (B7800,B2910,B3030,B2920)

[Chris H]

Looking for a decent used Kubota tractor in the 30hp range, must be HST.
Strong preference for 4 cylinder engine.
No loader is preferred, but will consider.
R4 tires best, then turf.
500 hours or less? (I will consider any hours)
Garage queen not necessary, but no worn out junk either.
500 miles or less from Rochester MN.

Please email me with a couple pictures challstATyahoo.com
Include a few details and a picture or 2, your name/phone and a good time to call.

Thanks!
Chris

You'd be better off with a three cylinder, which is on most of the B series anyhow. Less vibrations. Good luck!

Interesting comment, but 2 of my other machines both run the V1505 Kubota diesel that I have been very satisfied with.
Wouldn't 4 cylinders be smoother than 3?

Inline fours need harmonic balancing to equal the inherent balance of an inline three. Balance shafts are often used on automotive inline fours, but I've never heard of them on a diesel tractor. So the four cylinder B models (like the 3200, 3300, etc) have noticeably more engine vibration than the three cylinder models.

I ended up with a B2910 with a LA402 loader in May.
Bought it from Collins Equipment in Indiana, Chris Collins was a pleasure to deal with.
1100 miles and 20 hours later it was sitting in my garage.
Really pleased with the B2910 overall, a huge improvement over my B6200!

I'll second Chris Collins, I bought a rear scraper bladed from him earlier this year, within in few days, it was here, Indiana to Virginia, three days.

My rhino was available with one


but my engine does not have the balance shaft installed, just checked- since i have the engine apart but that's (another story)...


Wonder if there are other 4 cylinder tractors that the balance shaft option was available or came with it installed ??
