    MX 5100 hydraulic heavy steering

    That would be my guess, but then again wouldnt it leak from day one if it was damaged or installed improperly? Surely it couldnt be from using the tactor too hard could it? I admit I bushhog some things I probably shouldnt, but who doesnt?

    MX5100 and Landpride 12' batwing

    Can this be done safely? I have a few big mowing accounts that I have been doing for the past 3 yrs with a 6' landpride rotary cutter, I figured I have enough HP for the 12' cutter but not sure of the weight. Does anyone have any thoughts?

    The dealer called today and said I had a leaky crankshaft seal, which has nothing to do with the steering! He said he topped of the hydraulic fluid and the heavy steering went away. My question is what the hell would make the crankshaft seals leak with so few hrs? The dealer says I may have...

    MX 5100 hydraulic heavy steering

    Wolfman, I did the standard 50 hr svc Kubota calls for on the hydro filters, I now have 150 hrs. I think the next change is @ 400 hrs. Where would I find the regulator valve? and is it an easy adjustment or something that needs to go to the dealer?

    MX 5100 hydraulic heavy steering

    Hey guys I have a MX5100 with 150hrs on it. It has a hydraulic steering system on that is different than what I had on the L3700SU. My question is after 20-30 minutes of mowing it feels like the steering actually becomes heavy, or harder to turn. Is this a common problem or should I look into...
