That should quiet it down

I just changed the rubber cab mounts on the 2-135 White. The rubber pads were completely gone in the right rear and pretty much gone in both fronts. When I'd hit a bump,it sounded like the world was coming to an end.

I thought I'd have to drop the side fuel tank down to get the bolt all the way out,but there's a groove in the top of the tank for it to drop in to. That doesn't mean it's just that easy. I had to jack the cab up a ways to get the bolt to twist around and drop down. Then it had to come out of the steel sleeve and the big washer,but I got it. Putting it back together was the real treat. It took an extendable magnet down through the washer,sleeve and bottom rubber pad,then a big screwdriver and a tire iron,but it's in there.
Been needing to get that job done for a couple of years now. Gonna make it seem like a whole new tractor.
 
Quieter. They were the quietest cab in the industry in their day. 2db quieter than the Deere Sound Guard.
 
You just have to pull the floor mat back on this one. An inch and an eighth socket on the impact wrench gets the nuts off the front bolts.
 
YOU knew you were not going to win an argument with a JOHN DEER man... LOL Glad you got it fixed. Real common problem with someone bringing in a cab KUBOTA complaining of cab noise. Yep you guessed it ask them if they have had the mounts out ,,,well yea, they always put them in the wrong way . They have a little spacer that does not go like it looks like it would and if placed wrong it is like steel to steel.
