    L1720 loader cylinders

    Thank you Dave. I did not report that my loader is a l1720 attached to a l355ss but looks like the one in the download. The hydraulic mechanic that did my 210LE J.D. did those off the back of his service truck ( I was fortunate to hire him for the loader joystick valves were leaking) with...

    l345 water pump housing leaks

    Wolfman, I haven't started that project of removing the thermostat housing. Looking it over the worst of what I think I see is a stud on bottom of the housing. I see 5 bolts and a stud. I went to my Kubota dealer to find out about the availability of the housing, it is still available ($115)...

    L1720 loader cylinders

    Has anyone replaced the seal kit in a 2inch bore with 1 1/2 dia. rod. and 27.5 in stroke? both of mine are so worn they won't lift the bucket after the oil warms up. After market cylinders of the same size are available but the ports are all on one side of the cylinder and the pins are 1/8...

    l345 water pump housing leaks

    Morning Wolfman, That information is what I was seeking. I can see the different castings; but did not know if the water housing could be removed without removing the gear casing. I did not even think about removing the head. I will download the WSM and parts manual for the L345 from...

    l345 water pump housing leaks

    Hi Wolfman, The thermostat housing is definitely leaking. I can see that the thermostat housing and gear housing are separate; but it looks like the gear housing has to be pulled to remove the water jacket housing? There is no water getting into the oil so I assume the gear housing is water...

    l345 water pump housing leaks

    I have a L345 that I replaced the water pump on; but I see that it is the housing that is also leaking. It looks like a job to change the housing because the casting seem to intermingle. Has anyone changed the housing that holds the thermostat and water pump?

    L355 SS 3 point hitch wont lift

    Wolfman, My 3 pt lift would not go up forever then today it went up (had the levers up position just in case) while using the loader on my 355ss. Could not figure why they would not go down, took the plug (by pass shown in picture above although mine does not have a ball on the end) out and...

    l355ss with l1720 loader and 3-point hitch

    Thank you mickeyd, I just got back from a 2 week stay in N. Carolina; and am ready to start working on the l355ss. I need the 3pt working so I can use a box scraper for counterbalance and to break up some hard dirt we have in Az. I may also try to adapt wheel weights and might even use liquid...

    l355ss 3-pt lift not working

    Hi, N. Idaho Wolfman has been helping me on my search for manuals, thank you. I cleaned the filter, drawing out 1 and 1/2 gallons and got the side glass down below low level. The fluid that drained from the filter was grossly contaminated with metal shavings and pieces of rubber or some sort...

    l355ss with l1720 loader and 3-point hitch

    Hi, I am new to the Kubota tractor world. I have a l355ss with a Kubota l1720 loader that is totally new to me. I was told that Kubota puts their parts manuals on line to veiw; but I cannot find that link. Was also told not to mix hydraulic oils because of cavitation problems. Have not...

    L355ss power lift

    Hi Bobscooter, I am a new member also and have the same type tractor and same problem. My tractor lift system worked when I bought it but did not work this morning. I suspect low hydraulic fluid is the cause; I have no input as far as help but am interested the discussion from the North Idaho...
