Limited info online but I keep reading Deere had a fix for the jerky steering on the 830a ztrac mowers. Does anyone know a part number for this kit, or even hat the kit does? Can't find much info online.

When I first purchased my 2014 4540 in 2019, it had a leaking steering cylinder on the left side. In the interim, I made a little catch pan to keep hydraulic fluid from leaking everywhere and I watched fluid levels closely. Recently, I noticed it is now also leaking on the right side of the...

Just wanted to pass along my experience with removing a T4030 steering wheel. First, it was the most difficult steering wheel to remove I have encountered. The telescoping feature makes it difficult to get the proper pull on it to begin with. And the wimpy 6mm bolt holes that it is tapped with...

Just got this MF1528 tractor and the steering cylinder is leaking. It appears that I can not replace the cylinder as no one seems to have a replacement cylinder. I am wondering if this cylinder is able to be rebuilt with new seals as opposed to replacing it. I didn’t want to pull it off just to...

I'm on the hunt for this OE center cap. This will be the next 3D Printer project to under take. This Center cap also fits John Deere models with the deer logo. There are many generics out there, yet they do not cover properly to prevent water intrusion. SpareX has the best one of S.70541...

My 2008 Kioti Dk40 is having steering issue. Wheels will only turn one way. I can lift steering wheel up and get the wheels to turn in both directions. The shaft from steering wheel moves up and down. Could this be a seal? Update: Doesn’t turn either direction now!

Try to figure out whats missing, there's a bit too much shaft/joint up/down more so with steering post plastic removed. There is a circlip 04612-00160 missing at the bottom of shaft although I don't see how that would eliminate all the play. I recall on my F3060 replacing the pipe steering...

Need to access the fuel pump behind the cover for the steering wheel column. This means the steering wheel needs to come off. I have removed the nut and attempted using a gear puller but wheel won't budge and afraid of breaking the wheel. any tricks to get the steering wheel off?

When changing out the steering cyl do you have to bleed the air out of the lines before hooking them up? And if so, how do you guys normally do this?

I own a Kubota 3000dt. Early 2000’s model. The steering column becomes loose as the bolts holding it back out. As they are through holes when it gets loose it leaks hydraulic fluids. The tiny metric fine threads stripped years ago and former owner retaped with a course standard bolt and it is...
