Just a quick follow up. Geohorn and Dave, you guys gave me the correct answer. I was way overthinking the problem. Kabota Dealship told me the the o-rings failed, and they need to pull the rockshaft to put new o-rings. Needless to say that made my day. I hung the phone up, and reread all of the...

Thank very much, and that is exactly what I'm going to do.

I want to thank you Dave and everyone else. I appreciate the time and effort to responding to my post. I have learned a lot from the post. I will assume the arm shifted tighter against the housing (why I see more exposed shaft) and that grease is following the proper path to lube the needed...

Yep, what he said! Thank you for clearly explaining and applying the visual aid to my problem.

Unfortunately, it is only the clean grease. It looks like an extruder coming out every spline gap.

Thanks Dave, you have been extremely helpful. I'm probably wording this poorly. I'm still trying to figure out what has failed, fallen off or changed to cause the grease not travel to the opposite side of the arm (2 1/2" or so) it's not lubricating the rockshaft under the arm at this point. I...

Ps. There is a grease fitting on the other side that takes grease as it should. All excess grease is pushed out between arm and housing.

Thank you Dave! I couldn't find any assembly drawings. Part ID #150 is an end plate that bolts on the left side of the shaft. Is there a drawing for the right side? It looks like a ring clip around the shaft. Kubota said, there is no end cap on right side.

Thank you NCL4701

The grease use to flow exactly as you describe, but now it it coming right back out on the end with the grease fitting. None is coming out now on the other end of the arm.

Thank you RCW for your response. I'm going to add a photos of the arm and if you blow it up a little you will see the shaft sticking out a little. I believe the grease is kept out of hydraulic cast by seals, but I'm only guessing, that they're o-rings on the shaft holding grease in and dirt out...

Hello to all, I am new to the forum, so please forgive my errors, and thanks in advance for any advice. I have a L4600DT with 140 hrs. I noticed during my maintenance when I applied grease to the right hydraulic lift arm that the grease was just shooting out of the splines instead of the other...
