    L3400 Tie Rods Replacement

    Any more ideas for switching these out? I am not very good with a wrench and have been dreading this, but I missed my May mow and need to make it happen. I just don't want to raise the tractor and do anything stupid that will leave me worse off. Thank you!

    L3400 Tie Rods Replacement

    L3400 PTO grind

    When engaging the PTO on my Kubota L3400, I get a grinding sound. It does not matter if the attachment (mower) is attached or not, it still grinds. Can you help me figure out what to do? After doing a little research, I did this and: I adjusted the freeplay of the clutch pedal. I can get the...
