As the title states, I just bought my first Kubota. I picked up an 85 B8200-HST with a FEL, front mount snow blower, rear blade and some other odds and ends. Trying to familiarize myself with the tractor and plan to do a total fluid and filter change in the next week or as I don't know when it was all last done. Looking things over there are two leaks on the tractor. One appears to be an old hydraulic line on the right type side of the transmission that I'm guessing just needs to be replaced. The other is the left rear axle seal. Its just a few drops a day. I did a little research and was hopeful that it was an easy fix but I'm starting to think I need to split the case to change it. Trying to decide if its worth it or if I should just do the fluid change and see if it seals better once the weather warms up. I'd consider myself handy and have rebuilt quite a few engines over the years and such but cracking open a transmission isn't something I've ever done.
