I just installed a loader on a B2400. I moved 3 loads of some gravel. On the way pack to the pile with an empty bucket the steering box failed on me. See pictures. I am not an expert in tractors, would to heavy of a load take this bearing out??? This is my third tractor with front end loader and I have never had a steering box fail. The bucket wasn't even full. Also, before this got used I had the box brought in to my kubota dealership to throw new seals at it because the top seal started to leak. I trust their work, so trying to figure out what went wrong here. My hope is they can fix it, my fear is to figure out why it failed and make sure it does not happen again. I would not think front end weight would do this, if so.....I may not be a Kubota fan anymore.
