I have a Kubota L 3600 tractor four wheel drive with a Hydraulic leak under the tractor around a nut with a pin in it. I went to the Kubota dealer with this is sold me a kit to fix this, this kit consist of a round tube and two o rings, but I need a break down on how to do this. there is a covered shaft in front on this nut in the center of the tractor and leading to the front of the tractor. I can see a block with four bolts and in front of this a block with two bolts in it. Does any one out there have a break down that gives the directions on how to take this a part out and replace the o rings and shaft. thanks

If I'm reading this right your talking about a leak from the bottom of the clutch housing, It's a nut with a pin hanging down in the middle of it right, that's a drain.
If it is you have a clutch housing seal leaking and your going to have to split the tractor to repair it.
The tube you are describing is the front wheel drive propeller shaft, you just drop the bolts out of the hangers and push the 2 tubes together on the front and back there will be couplers with a roll pin in the middle, just drive the pin out and the coupler will slide on the shaft to disconnect it from the transmission and from the front end, normally you will only need to do either the front or the rear coupling to get the shaft out from under it.

The leak is coming from the front wheel drive propeller shaft you are mentioning here I was hoping some one had a diagram with instructions on how to do this

Thanks Wolman that is exactly what I need, I will let you know how this comes out and if it stops the leak hopefully I will not have to break the tractor apart, and this will fix my problem.
