3301 power steering leak

[Swando]

The "search this forum" tab does not work for me. I'm trying to find how to fix a leaking seal on the 3301power steering. Seal is on the main shaft which outputs to the tie rods. Looks like remove a big nut then use a puller to remove tie rod connector from splined shaft. Pop out seal and install new. Any old threads would be helpful. Thanks

Your most likely the first one to have to rebuild that unit.

And you have to take the cover off of the back side to remove the shaft and seals (4 seals get changed at the same time).

Go to kubotabooks.com and download the WSM for your tractor:

It should walk you through the rebuild.

As often happens I may have misdiagnosis the problem. The power steering return line clamp was very loose. Thanks for the help!
