    Front axle seal replacement question

    Ordered a new axle seal for my FWD L3240. I read a review that said the race must be removed when installing the new seal. I noticed that the old seal number was discontinued. Just want to make sure before I begin the repair. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

    L3240 axle seal/gasket replacement question???

    Thanks so much. I was hoping I could take the 4 bolts and tie rod loose and separate. I have already ordered the O ring in hopes that would be a fix. However, I did not want to tear into it until I was sure I could get it apart without taking the knuckle apart. Your reply gives me hope. Thanks...

    L3240 axle seal/gasket replacement question???

    Thanks for your reply. I assume the axle housing is vented but I'm not sure. When I changed the fluid I did not notice any build up of pressure. Thanks again.

    L3240 axle seal/gasket replacement question???

    My L3240 is leaking fluid where the knuckle connects to the axle housing. The knuckle is attached with 4 bolts and the fluid is slowly dripping out on the underside of the axle housing. I need to know how to disassemble and what gaskets or seals I need to stop the leak. Any help is appreciated.

    Grappling with this...

    I too have an L3240 and I purchased the EA 60 inch wicked root grapple with the single lid and also purchased the WR Long third function valve. The grapple is about 150 lbs heavier than the loader bucket. I installed the third function valve myself. You would not believe the work I have...

    which mfr for grapple?

    I purchased the EA 60 inch wicked root grapple for my L3240. It is built tough and weighs approximately 150 lbs more than my bucket. It has done everything I have asked of it. It is my favorite implement. I also purchased the WR Long third function valve.

    3rd function kit M5140

    My WR Long valve came with a good set of instructions. Prior to receiving the kit I could not find anything on locating the power beyond port for my tractor. However, the instructions were correct and the power beyond port was not the hard part. Routing the hydraulic hoses under the tractor was...

    To grapple or not to grapple

    The third function valve is a hydraulic valve that is tied into your tractor's electrical system. It comes with hydraulic hoses that connect to your tractors hydraulics and also the hydraulic piston that attaches to the lid of the grapple. It's function is to open and close the lid.

    Tooth fork and/or grapple?

    I have an EA 60 inch wicked root grapple and it does an excellent job of pushing up brush and saplings. I also have a tooth bar on my loader bucket. The tooth bar works great on brush and saplings also. If the spot I'm clearing is gnarly and thick I use the bucket for pushing the brush into a...

    Power beyond on Kubota L3240HST?

    I don't know if adding a third function valve is different for an L3240 HST than it is for an L3240 GST but I added a WR Long third function valve to my tractor a few months ago. The seat has to be taken off. There was a short piece of piping under the seat that connected to the hydraulic valve...

In other words if your tractor is valued at $10K the insurance would cost $156.60 per year. The plan covers theft, fire, storms etc...

    Pull Behind Sprayer

    I just purchased a 45 gallon sprayer to go in the bed of my Kubota 900 RTV. I know you are looking for a pull behind sprayer and I have a small one of those (15 gal.) that I pull behind my lawn mower and use on the yard. I opted for the RTV sprayer as it is smaller and I hope easier to store...

    Which EA grapple to buy?

    I have the single lid and I have used it on brush, logs and rocks and it still amazes me how much work you can do with the grapple. I used it all day yesterday around a huge burn pile and it is a beast. I purchased the 60 inch wicked root grapple and opted for the single lid due to price...
