I did a quick google search, and found plenty of info for the do-it-yourselfer. So, you can accomplish it yourself, but it may be wise to at least inquire at a couple of tire shops- they probably buy the fluid at a bulk rate, so you will probably pay less for that, and then if you count your...

That's a good point. I do know that Mahindra makes a solid, strong tractor, and that they are a huge manufacturer in India. Massey Ferguson makes some of their smaller tractors. I don't think quality is as much of an issue as support, parts, and public support- an active forum is a beautiful...

It's easy to tell- there aren't that many holes in the axle for adjustment- if the tire looks fairly centered with the fender, then you should have one more step to the outside.

Tight. You need to torque them- sorry that I can't remember the amount, but it is up there. They need to be tight, so that the hub doesn't wiggle on the axle.

Nothing major- just make sure that you properly tighten those bolts back down, and make sure that each wheel has a locating pin, and it is in good shape and installed.

What you heard is not completely true. If the 4WD is engaged, and the front wheels are off the ground, then when you spin one wheel, the other one will rotate the opposite direction. If something is broken, then one will spin, and you should hear noise in the center section. Remember, that is if...

If it has to be removed anyways, then I'd do the same thing- repair the part, and it will probably be stronger than the new one. Unless the bores are worn- perhaps having the new one will tighten things up, making it worth it.

At this point, as you look, you need to saturate yourself with information. No doubt that used Kubota's are a wise investment and will give you plenty of service. But, you do need to know what you need, what is out there in your general price range, and what to look for as far as condition. I...

Lee wasn't bad at all. About 5" of slow rain over 3 days. Wish I could send it to Texas, though...

Agreed. Most accidents are avoidable, but that doesn't change that they happen. No one is perfect, or on top of things all of the time, or can focus on every single thing that goes on around them. The phrase "stupid hurts" may always fit, but that doesn't change that it can and does happen to...

There is no better way to understand how they work and what they will do than by building your own- I think that could be a great idea, given the resources and know-how. The link to Northern Tools gives you (at least) three ideas- they run at 540 pto rpms, hp is directly relational to output...

Let us know what happens- if they have integrity (be sure to drop that word- put the monkey on their back to do the right thing), they will take care of you.

Have you gone to the dealer in person? Try that- go see your salesman. Ignoring a phone message is one thing. An expectant customer is different. Is the tractor brand new? Are you certain it came that way? The dealer will probably say that you dented it, so you need a ready reply.

I haven't seen a Kubota (I do admit an imcomplete knowledge of Kubota's, not trying to be a smart alleck) with a front axle set back that far- it looks like an orange Yanmar, to me. Given the front axle placement, and the frame, my novice eye would say Yanmar. Well, I do love learning new...

It sounds like the pivot bolt and/or bushings (if it has bushings) is worn. I would doubt that this will cause excessive issue with the rest of the driveline, although it should be fixed. Is it a high hour machine? If the axle pivot is that worn, I would imagine that some other things will be...

I just read a long post today on mytractorforum, about a John Deere 2210. Not only does similar steps need to be taken to replace the fan, you have to tear the tractor apart to grease the u-joints. It looks like Kubota isn't the only one with design flaws. The JD/Yanmar actually looks worse to...

Welcome to the site, John! I wish that I had an answer for you, but someone will. There are some very experienced and knowledgable folks here. I think you will grow to appreciate the site, like we all do.

Honest opinion? I think that most all compact tractors today are comparable and will provide a similar amount of service. Prices may vary, but you will get that even between dealers. I have scoured over the Mahindra's, and they look like well built machines. That being said, Kubota's footprint...

I agree. There is a phsychology to their methods- we think that adding a little of this or that will increase life, power, and reliability. But, the manufacturers spend millions on R&D, and their recommendations are invariably the best route to go. My wife has a 2000 Ford Windstar. I was going...
