BX25 trouble......

[CHDinCT]

What oil is in the front axle? They come from Kubota with SUDT/SUDT2 in them, which is pretty thin stuff. If that's what's in there, you can try draining it and refilling with 80W-90W gear oil (I think the manual spec's which viscosity) which is a bit thicker. Sometimes that will stop the leak. If not, you're looking at a seal replacement. Haven't done one on mine yet, but there's a few threads here on how others have done their own. How many hours on your BX25?

And did you call KATC to see if you'd be covered for the PTO breakage? Being that you already had it repaired at your own expense, you might have a tougher case. You never know until you ask, as they say.

Yep it's an axle seal, not a hard job to do.

That's what the dealer said. It is not leaking now, so I am going to top off the unit and see if it stops or continues. I personally think the dumbass that didn't clean my tractor up when I complained about the drips and fluid when I was GOING to take it, pressure washed the **** out of it and maybe lodged a piece of debris in the seal. After I used it, maybe is snapped back up and in place.......we will see!
