Best Tax Return Ever?! We bought a 1977 Kubota B7100

Published 2024-04-04
We bought a tractor! A 1977 Kubota B7100 to be specific. This tractor is a little BEAST and it's going to be putting in some hard hours for sure. In this video we go through all the basic fluids and get it ready for its first day of work

  • Hi, Very nice investment. I wish you well with your purchase. I have owned B7100-D for just under 40 years now. It is a solid tractor which I added an ARPS 70 Backhoe to it within a month of purchase. The backhoe was brand new and the Kubota was 4 years old when i purchased it. The suggestion I will make is for you to replace the rear axle hubs with the newer style of hubs ASAP. My rear wheels were always loose and wobbly. I replaced my hubs with the new style hub around 1992 and have not had an issue since with loose hubs. Google new style hubs for Kubota B7100. Good luck with your new tool. Dan😊 PS: All States Ag Parts has them on Amazon for $119 each. I'm running RimGuard loaded, Titan Trac Loader 12- 16.5 NHS, oversize R4 tires, plus the weight of the backhoe with no issues.
  • It's hard to think of a more versatile machine than a tractor with a loader and a 3pt hitch. If you're anything like me, you'll keep finding new projects and new attachments to keep the tractor working! A little advice: when you put the new tires on, put liquid ballast in the rear tires. Ballast weight is a must for small tractors for stability when you have a full bucket.

    New small tractors only use hydraulic fluid even the rear and front ends.

    Nice machine you got, I have B6000 with "japan spec" very deep thread tyres and I'm probably going to replace them. It's like driving on square wheels on hardpack ground... I see your new video, mean looking machine with those new tyres!

    be careful with tire size. you don't want to go too tall. Good luck its a very cool tractor.

    Hi I'm having a Kubota B5000, planning to DIY a front end loader, can you please show me the details of your loader in another video,regao the way of hydraulic connections from pump, controller, the loader mount and etc.. thank you very much
  • If the hydraulic pump is mounted on the back of the fuel pump you need to keep a check on your motor oil. If it starts rising the hyd pump is likely going bad.
