Kubota l2900 gst transmission seal

[mrinehart]

oil started leaking out of the front drive shaft from the transmission, do i need to split the tractor to replace the seal or is there a kit to repair this without splitting the tractor. my serial number is 56837.

Thanks,
Matt

Sounds like you need a Service Manual. I struggled with a front oil seal replacement way too long before seeing the need to split my B1750 HST. It teased at having enough wiggle room to remove the propeller shaft.

Yes you will have to split it to replace the seal.

hey thanks for the info guys, will post any more questions if i have them

 

[mrinehart]

do you guys think a service manual would be a good idea if i split this tractor

 

[North Idaho Wolfman]

Yes and a parts manual too!

Of course I meant the WorkShop Manual. Just got mine from Messicks online. Not cheap, but guessing can be expensive.

was just wondering if i actually need to split the transmission also or just replace the two front seals

I thought I had answered your question?
Yes you will need to split the tractor where the clutch housing meets the transmission, It's not where you think, the transmission on these tractors is what most would call the rear end.
If you get the Service Manual it walk you threw the whole process.
