    Cooling fan L3450GST

    Thanks Seán. Appreciate it. Goes dangerously close to the red on road work with the 5 blade fan. If I have to replace the rad, so be it. But there was never a problem until the fan bearings calfed and tackled the rad. I straightened the fins as best I could. It never got hot before so I'm...

    Radiator fan bearing

    The carrier bearing on the radiator fan wore out. I have the shaft taken out but can't figure out how to get the end off the shaft to replace the bearing. Is it threaded? And if it is, is it left hand thread or right?

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Carrier bearing on the fan shaft pooped the bed. New fan, new bearing, new fan belt and new flex joint needed. I can see bloodshed in my future. Radiator seems ok, I hope

    I went to the dark side 😱😱

    I spent 30 years working on golf courses. Those guys know because they run them long and hard. Early Kubotas were unbreakable. They don't buy Kubota any more. Just saying 🤷‍♂️

    Stuck in gear

    Thanks for the replies. It's a force of habit thing from only ever driving manuals. And by hill I mean gentle slope ;). I don't do it every time but will try to not do it again

    Stuck in gear

    It has happened a couple of times. If I turn the tractor off while on a hill in gear it gets stuck in gear. The shuttle shift gets very difficult to move and I don't want to break anything. Pressing the clutch or shifting the GST to neutral does not relieve the pressure and the tractor cannot be...

    Snapped the fan belt 3 miles from home. Nursed it home at 1200rpm. Pretty close to the red when I got there. PITA fitting new belt, which, of course, was slightly small. Now I'm missing the 2 idiot lights on the left

    2k hour oil and filter change. Did the diesel filter too but the tap didn't turn off the flow so there was a slight spill
