Hi,
I have a Kubota L5030 leaking oil from right behind the front axle case. The front pinion/bevel gear area if I've done my research correctly. Is it just a seal that needs to be replaced? How involved is that repair?

Thanks

How bad is the leak?
Doesn't look very bad from the pic.
If so, I wouldn't worry about it.....until the leak stops (axle out of oil).
Seriously, time to get some data to determine how bad the leak is.

I could have changed the front pinion seal on my L2500 when I replaced the driveshaft.
It's an all-day job.
