Hello again everyone, I am about to replace the front pinion bearing on my M5700 4 wheel drive cab tractor and was wondering how much of a pain it is going to be. Do the shims just go back in the same order they come out? The wonderful service lady at out local Kubota dealer has given me the...

Some motors have oil restrictors in them to limit the amount of oil that goes to the top end of the motor to prevent this very thing form happening. I know big block chevy's have this. If by chance your motor has this and it was left out during rebuild it could be what it causing your problem...

The A/C in my M-5700 will stop working at times then start again. It continues to blow air it is just not cool. I know about keeping the radiator and AC condenser clean. This happens regardless of that being clean or dirty. In fact I can watch the temp gauge and as it starts to rise a little...

Wow! Ok you guys were right. It was not the clutch causing my problems. I finally found that underneath the tractor there was very hard mud caked in around the forward and reverse shift lever that was keeping it from going into forward or reverse completely and this caused it to become jammed...

Thanks again for the information. I will admit that I have a bad habit leaving my foot on the pedal while driving. I also have done a lot of brush and smaller tree clearing on my land and use the tractor to push the stuff into pile. Wow when I think back and look at all the stuff I have done...

Thank you to the information. Just to clear something up I don't let the tractor go down the described steep incline with the clutch depressed. I was just referring that it did this behavior after transgressing a steep incline. When I first noticed it I was on a very slight incline setting...

I have an interesting thing happening with my tractor, If I climb a fairly steep 45* incline and push the clutch in while still in a forward gear the tractor will start to roll back but something catches and stop the tractor. It is like when the engine is off and you put the clucth in and...
