I have a l200 kubota that will not turn left when temperature gets well below freezing . But it does turn to the right. Does anyone have any ideas what it could be?

Works fine now in warm weather,but don't understand why it would turn right but not left if the lube was frozen.

On the old fords - corn head grease was used in the steering, in collllldddd weather, would be hell to turn the wheel.
I would suspect that one direction is getting the cold grease more so than the other........next cold season - take you a hair dryer to the steering box - that is IF you can get to it and see if 10 minutes of heat will make a difference!
Mine has 90w oil in the steering box. Think I will change it before next winter. Thanks for the help.
