[sherman]

hi and hello. i just bought a brush hog to use behind my kubota l235dt.
im going to have to buy a pto shaft for so does anyone know the shaft size.
all i been finding looks to be 1 and 3/8 and my out put shaft if im measuring it right looks to be 1 2/8. so for the cheapest ive have found is at northerntool for $99.99 for a class 4 max length of 46 in with quick attach on one end and slip on the other but its 1 3/8. any help is most apprecated

Sherman,
The standard pto shafts are 1 3/8 inches and spin at 540 rpm with six splines. There are also some impliments that are designed for 1000 rpm but they run a 20 spline shaft. I think there are two different size shafts 1 3/8 and 1 3/4 inches. We run 1000 rpm shafts on the mowers. Hope this helps.
Jason

Have to agree with 1 3/8" being the size you need if it is 6 splines.

If you have a local Tractor Supply or any farm dealer you can buy several kinds of adapters and PTO ends (you only need one) to test it for fit. Then return the part to the store for a refund.

Going to a store will also educate you on the possible choices for a correct fit-up.
