Since it appears that your pins have removed themselves from the holes, I don’t think you need to worry with getting that set of pins. I would suggest that you try to grab the pin(s) you can see sticking out with a pair of pliers (maybe vice grip type) and see if you can wiggle the pins out of...

Your tractor (probably) already has an over run clutch built into it. What happens when you push the clutch in? Does the tractor come to a stop or still want to move like the transmission is being driven? I assume you come to a stop and the cutter is still coasting down but spinning. That...

I originally thought that the red circle was a broken bolt so I circled it. Then I looked at the parts diagram and saw there was NOT a bolt there, but it appears to be just some sort of nub sticking up. Sorry for confusing you, I meant to say ignore that. If you look at the picture in post...

Sorry to hear about your loss.

I noticed that this statement in in a plural tense 2. Make sure the shift levers are at NEUTRAL, and start the engine. So do you have a high/low speed and a separate gear selector? Are they both in neutral?

Agree on the remove one spring and leave one spring suggestion already made. And start with the nuts around the middle to far outside end of the threaded section with the tab back against the inner nut and then the spring holding the tab and nut together. As to the roll pins they don’t look...

I meant on the requested and any future hydraulic pressure tests you do, please post a picture of the gauge position. That way there is less problem understanding your results.

And just to be clear what you did, take a picture of how it is connected or take a video and post it somewhere and link it to your post (You can’t post videos here.) And just out of curiosity, why can’t you use the cap that is hanging from the tee? Is it a different size or type of thread?

Is there a screen in front of the radiator that catches the large chaff? If so, have you cleaned it?

There are TWO different types of “British threads”. There was/is BSPP (parallel threads) and BSPT (tapered threads). This site describes the difference in thread types. To make it a bit more confusing they are now identified by DIN standard (G is BSPP). And used in the metric world but use...

Perhaps leave it with the smaller (stronger) hole and use a newer version tie rod end??

Here is a link to the online parts diagrams at Kubota USA. https://apps.kubotausa.com/illustrated-parts/ Messick’s also has the same thing but it is linked to their pricing also. https://www.messicks.com/vendor/kubota?nav=5465

Sorry about the circlip reference, I should have looked at the diagram more. Since it is a bolted together assembly they will use retainers (spacers) to hold the bearings in place.

Take the top pin out and then rotate the object that is pinned on the bottom pin forward so the pin on it is where you attach to? Really though, if this is a new mower, there should be an operator’s manual in a black tube with a screw on lid that will tell you everything you need to know. Read...

But also check the engine oil level since that is one place the hydraulic fluid can be moved to (failed seals on pump?).
