Ujoints for rtv900W

[ttfo]

I need to replace my ujoints on the front drive shaft of my RTV900W 2005 serial # 31307. Kubota says I have to replace the entire drive shaft. Has anyone purchased just the ujoints and do they have a part #?

Thanks

A competent drive shaft business can convert to greaseable and replaceable joints and balance.

Take care when re-installing ... or rather...take care when disassembling... to keep the U-joints in “phase” with their original orientation. Use a marker and take pics to document the orientation.

yeah you can't get the old style drive shaft anymore, which is what you have. They have updated it to a one-piece design that has cv joints at each end, and is a 1,000,000 better design. I have never seen one fail.

Thanks for all the info.
messick say's I have to purchase a complete drive shaft with u-joints attached.
Since I have to purchase a new drive shaft, will the new style fit my RTV900W?

Yes, if you order one for the RTV900W. There is a kit to change a unit to a one-piece shaft.
Do not just order a shaft and expect to slip it on and go.
