Class II Front Axle Jacking Points

MikePA · Sep 6, 2004

I'm in the midst of performing the 300 hour service on my TC25D and one of the tasks is to replace the front axle oil, both the differential and the reduction gear case oil. While draining the oil is easy, it looks like the only way the reduction gear case oil can be refilled is by removing the front wheels.

Where is it safe to jack the front of the tractor up and place jack stands under it? At the axle ends? Under the differential? I can get the front end off the ground with the FEL, but still need to know where it's safe (wont damage the tractor) to place two jack stands?

I guess what I would do is raise the front end with your loader and then put blocks under the axles. Let tractor rest on your blocks. This way you have both wheels in the air at the same time and you don't have to worry about the one side raising up on you as you jack up.
