Let me know what parts you need and my best friend who works at the Kubota about 3 miles from me can get any available factory parts that you need as well as authorized replacement parts IF they're still available,which most are.. And it'll be at jobber costs USD plus actual shipping... I ain't making nothing off of anything because that's how we take care of one another...

As a millwright i can tell you that having something destroy the bearings is actually the best thing.

Also they can take all the damage, and save the rest of the housing, whatever it may be

I was puzzled when he expressed caution on the destruction of bearings and seals, as all such stuff I've handled on that front have all been standard. One positive is don't have to suffer rip off OEM parts prices or risk it with eBay crap, you just go down to a local bearing supplier.

@@MartyT I'm left wondering were these non-standard, or how good is your bearing shop? I could conceive of a massive production run having something non-standard, but Kubota commissioning a non-standard bearing? Now the exception that I do know that proves the rule (it is that long ago I can't remember what was done) was needle bearings for two-stroke little ends, but I think that was something to do with machining tolerances being wider than the needed tolerance, so components were matched to produce working sets. Most of my buggering about with bearings and seals came after being introduced to the joyous world of motorcycles, and my Guru steered me firmly in the direction of Spen Bearings in Cleckheaton, who were always shit hot at helping me.
