I have a Kubota B2400 HST and I noticed yesterday that hydraulic fluid was leaking from behind the plastic that’s underneath the steering wheel. Anyone experienced this issue yet. Thanks

Could be power steering unit itself or the lines for it. If it is a 1999 model it shouls have the gen3 steering box which typically doesn't have much problems. The gen1 and gen2 were known for inner seal leaks (not the dust seal at the top). Also they are known to leak where the lines go into the steering box.
yeah take the dash and pedestal off. Ain't very hard, just a bunch of plastic and a few screws holding it all together. Underneath there are a set of hard lines, and then in FRONT of the steering there is a rubber return hose that often cracks/breaks and leaks. Bottom, center of the steering, and fair warning: it's a little bit of a bear to get to.
