    L4200 4wd front axle bearings

    Ceramic is not an option. Super high rpm, no corrosion, good wear resistance but a poor load capacity. They are less tough and more brittle. Steal is way better especially for heavy loads and impacts. Basically I'm not asking because of many changes needed or something. Actually one bearing...

    L4200 4wd front axle bearings

    Following your link the minimum radial load to avoid damage is P > C0r/60 , so its P > 53000N/60 for the NUP208-E-TVP2 thats 90Kg respective 200 pound per bearing. That shouldn't be too much for a pendulum axle. Maybe with massive loads without any front weight at the three point hitch. I think...

    L4200 4wd front axle bearings

    Infact that would be my first idea too an definitly the best solution. But if you use taper roller bearings for the usage as locating roller bearings, you'll need either a double row tapered roller bearing or two matched tapered roller bearings for the changing axial forces. I dont think you can...

    L4200 4wd front axle bearings

    My Kubota shop is telling me that they are changing the front axles a real lot from ball to roller bearings. By far the most on municipal mowers because of the heavy mowing decks weighing on the front axle -> instructed by Kubota Germany. It's really interesting and somehow kind of weird that...

    L4200 4wd front axle bearings

    Not really. There are even locating cylindrical roller bearings on the market like the NUP type that you can combine with NU or N type. Example giving: NUP208-e-xl-tvp2 and NU207-E-XL-TVP2 should easily refit both original bearings mentioned above. The permissible dynamic axial load of...

    L4200 4wd front axle bearings

    Is there any known Kubota advice for a possibility to change the front axle ball bearings #TA140-13140 + #TD030-13150 to cylindrical roller bearings?

    L4200HST Oil filter bursts

    Good news! I reduced the shims of the charge pressure relief valve from 10 to 5 - and the shims of the filter protection relief valve from 2 to zero. Works like a charm. And surprisingly I think I reduced the diesel consumption somehow close to half! Can't really imagine that by myself. o_O

    L4200HST Oil filter bursts

    I've found a book called "WSM Tractor mechanism" in german. Its not specific to my tractor, its for all Kubota tractors with all kinds of hydraulics, brakes, steerings, transmissions and so on. I've found an HST transmission in this book, which is absolutely similar to mine. With those drawings...

    L4200HST Oil filter bursts

    Oh! One thing I forgot to say: The top speed I can reach is 17km/h instead of 25km/h. I think it could be related to the same issue.

    Alright. To check the relief valves I think I'll have to drain the complete hydraulic oil, right?

    L4200HST Oil filter bursts

    Just to make sure that I didn't misunderstood: A plugged cooling cycle could be the reason for this problem?

    L4200HST Oil filter bursts

    Hello! My L4200HST is killing HST oil filters. I use new oil and new filters. Could I be the HST relief valve? Where is it located? Do I have do drain the complete Oil before checking the valve? Could it be anything else? Please help. I have the L4240HST service manual, but there are so many...

    Thanks a lot! VPN works fine and Messicks is a great idea too: I really like the Messicks Youtube channel, but i didnt know their awesome website.
