Yes you are correct....Since my earlier posts and finally getting a chance to crawl under the tractor, I have found the bolt heads do have a "9" on them and that's the torque the WSM lists for a M14 bolt. I am leaning towards the big "O" ring must be leaking (inside the axle case where it...

Thanks Wolfman for the follow up. I got the bolt size by getting the Kubota part number then doing a search of the part number and two different sources verified that it is size 14 mm. The bolt head takes a 19mm socket. But again thanks for the caution. I like how you cover all the bases...

Yes...I dealt with "O" rings before but I am always open to good advice....Thanks

Thanks Wolfman. I found the bolt size is M14 and according to the manual the torque should be 91.2 to 108 ft lbs for grade 7 or 123 to 144 ft lbs if grade 9. At this point I'm not sure what grade the bolts are until I turn them out.

Got it...thank you for responding.

Thank you for responding.

I'm pretty sure I have an "O" Ring (see attached photo #050) that is causing a leak at the right front wheel. I have completely wiped the area dry and will be able to verify for sure in the next day or so. My question is when I bolt the main axle case back to the wheel assembly case (after...

Thanks for the response....the leak is at the bottom seam where the main front axle case is bolted to the wheel assembly case. I'm not sure what else it could be! The diagram doesn't show having a gasket to seal the two flanges together. So I assume it's only the "O" ring that seals when the...

I have axle oil leaking out of the area where the main front axle bolts to the right wheel assembly case. According to the attached photo below it looks like the oil is leaking because the "o" ring must be bad (I'm surprise there is not a normal gasket that seals when the two components are...

Got it Got it Wolfman....I understand what the plug is for. Thanks

Thanks....I understand the plugs purpose

Thanks for your help.

Thanks for your reply....I intend to install the same type of plug from Kubota. When I remove the plug I assume lots of oil will drain out?

Thanks for your information

I just picked up a Kubota L2550 column shift with loader. The owners manual shows two different caps to add hydraulic fluid. One is above the transmission (between the foot rests) and the second is behind the seat at the of top of housing where the 3 point arms are hinged. Are both of these...
