Refurbishing an L45

[Peter 315]

Get a seal then see if it's still leaking , Any play in the shaft.......

I believe this is only used on the L45.

I seems hard to believe that there is not another manufacturer worldwide, that uses that pump for something.

Have a seal kit coming from Kubota. No play

You would think, right? But I am unable to find anything and when I google the #s and manufacturer there are some unsavory websites pop up

You might take a look at E-Bay items: 273448179805, and 303339175142.

If not: The SIN JIN phone number in Korea is: +82 62 954 0951
Many Koreans do speak English, or perhaps you know of a Korean locally, who could make the call for you.
Koreans are generally very helpful people.

Going through this with an older Allmand (Terramite clone) TBL for a friend. Eaton steering valve, but its been discontinued for a while, as have the rebuild kits. They have a similar replacement, but an 8 month lead time. It's a bit funky with ports on the bottom instead of the more common side ports & a sense line.

They are pretty standard valves & you should be able to find generic replacements if you know the specs. May or may need to build a new mounting bracket. I've got a hydraulic guy trying to rebuild it. If not I'll find out how well I understand what I think I know when I source a new one & probably have to fab a new mount & hoses.

Picked up an L45 a couple weeks ago, two days before our 20th anniversary cruise, just now getting to servicing it and correcting a few issues. The tractor has 850 hours and runs and operates as it should except for the Auto Throttle Advance. There are no leaks but the fenders, hood and grill have seen better days. I got a great deal on the tractor so I don't mind dealing with correcting cosmetic issues.

Serviced the tractor; Kubota Filters (oil, hydrostatic, hydraulic, air inner & outer), Rotella T6 oil, and SUDT

Now working on the Auto Throttle Advance. The tractor is a 1 owner tractor and the owner stated the linked throttle has never worked. He returned it to the dealer on a couple of occasions but he stated they could never get it working correctly. Pulled the controller out from under the floor board and found the cable that runs to the injector pump disconnected and the arm in the mechanism would not disengage. The accelerator lever would not slide on the pin so disassembled. You can see there is some gouges on the pin and the ear on the arm holder is bent. Looks like the ear has been hit with a punch at some point in time.

Got everything straightened out and now the linked throttle works

Looks like you could use a taller receiver hitch insert, to help keep that trailer level.

Back in place. Local hydraulic shop fixed the leak, $51

Need a heavier truck in reality

I'll bet a new F250 4x4 would look really nice pulling that L45 around.
