Hi all, I'm in the market for a ~70hp utility tractor. I have 75 acres, 40 tillable and will be starting a equine boarding facility, so mostly cutting, raking, baling hay and spreading manure. The terrain is hilly, but not steep. I am looking at the Massey 2607H, CNH Workmaster 70 / 70A and...

Well I got it fired up on Friday and sure enough the oil seal that was too small in the upper cover started spitting out hydraulic fluid. I dug the old seal out of the trash and it read NOK AP1003E. Timken cross reference is 222028. I ordered a replacement and should be here this week.

I have a KL254 loader. So the LK3054, LK3054XS and LK30 all have different aux blocks? Oof. Not sure how the 3pt ties into all of it though.

Also, this is from my KL254 manual.

Hopefully these help - I'm not too versed on the hydraulic set up and exactly what hoses do what. By "no remotes" I meant that my BH is run off of my PTO, so the only thing coming off of my aux block is the FEL. All three hoses coming off the aux block go to the FEL.

I'll grab one tonight. I have a 1997 LK3054 with a FEL and backhoe, with no remotes. Are you running into problems?

I finished up reassembling the power steering unit last night and got it on the tractor. I have to clean up a few other things on the tractor before starting to reassemble everything there but hopefully I'll have a report if it worked or not by the end of the weekend. Install bottom cover and...

You're right, that isn't the best at explaining it! Thank you for taking the time out to find and post it. I think I will stick with the Kubota WSM and make sure the worm shaft is bottomed against the end cap. Comparing where my locknut sits with the new assembly to the one I took apart, it...

Well @Patches I need your help hopefully for one last time. I was putting the nut on the worm shaft last night, and following the L185 WSM, it states "Turn worm shaft clockwise, tighten locknut hand tight and stake locknut with a pin punch". So I turned the wormshaft all the way...

I did a little more digging last night and found another Kubota WSM from a B1700 that looks like it has a different, yet similar power steering set up (worm shaft/ball nut to sector shaft to drag link). Since its not specific to the LK3054, take it with a grain of salt but it at least explains...

Was able to finally get my pictures uploaded: I wont be taking the micrometer out and checking clearances to the extent the WSM calls for...this is just a shade tree job and hopefully the LK3054 steers better than when I bought it. But it is still a good chunk of change to replace a lot of...

That okay Joel, I appreciate you taking the time out to take those pictures and post them up. Maybe they will help someone else another day! Thanks Patches. Yeah, there are 4 springs, two of which are longer and thicker, and two which are shorter. I wouldn't have taken a second look a the...

I'm waiting on images to upload (dang DSL) but in the meantime, I figure I'd inquire of my next issue. My next issue is the valve body. Apparently the two smaller springs that are encased by the pistons are different parts - one looks like it has a higher spring rate than the other. They fell...

Thanks Joe and Patches. I was actually able to find a WSM of a Kubota model that shares what appears to be the same power steering system. I have attached the three relevant pages to the steering system to this post. I guess it's not as detailed at the 10 pages from Kioti, but it helped me in a...

Hey Patches, I received the new ball nut assembly and sector shaft, along with all the other bearings, seals and gaskets I ordered. I have been looking for a reference towards assembling everything. I was planning on just assembling it the way I took it apart but I just don't want to waste $1500...

Well, I made some progress and got the ball carrier out of the bottom, and the worm shaft out the top. I still believe I would need to remove the peened nut in order to get the valve assembly free, but I am wondering if it is worth it. Unfortunately, it appears the ball carrier is cracked, most...

Thanks Patches. I'll keep trying to remove it from the bottom based off your workshop manual, and let you know if I have any luck.

1997 LK3054 had issues turning left, namely binding and eventual inability to turn left. It was also leaking hydraulic fluid from the steering column, and I could see that the sector shaft was not fully inserted into the column. I decided to try take the steering column apart to see if I could...

Thanks for the replies. I am just not familiar enough with the tractor yet to see what rev range it is comfortable in. It almost felt like 2600 was pushing it, and for that to be the rated PTO rpm I just wanted to make sure it was normal.

I have recently purchased a 1997 LK3054. I noticed when driving it down the driveway in high and low gear it wouldn't rev out past 2600 RPM according to the tachometer. To me, it sounds like the engine is running at higher than 2600 RPM. I'm worried about running my PTO implements at the rated...

Wow, thank you perrypower! I did not expect to be able to find a full parts breakdown, let alone a manual. You have saved me a ton of headaches! I'll go through the backhoe this weekend and make a list of parts I need and get back to you. I understand parts will be hard to come by, but at least...

I recently purchased a 1997 LK3054 with a KL254 loader and a KB1200 backhoe. The backhoe desperately needs some new parts and I can not for the life of me find any information on it beside two other threads on TBN. Does anyone have any information on where I can find a parts diagram of the...
