Fluid leaking under steering wheel 5310 john Deere 4wd

frogsdaddy · Apr 14, 2015

My jd 5310 has fluid leaking out under the steering wheel.It doesn't leak all the time but if I run it for a
long time such as cutting my pasture it leaks pretty good.I have searched for a parts breakdown on it with no luck.Is it just as simple as a seal under there or do I have bigger problems?Thanks

Is there a lot of play in the steering wheel? Worn out steering column perhaps?

Doesn't seem to have a lot of play.does the steering colum have oil running inside it?

You can look at the parts breakdown for the 5310 by going to jdparts.com and even get the part numbers for a search on availability and prices.

It appears the only way you can get the required seal from JD is contained in a seal kit. AL112819 Seal Kit - SEAL KIT ADD 61.70 USD

If you feel that you need a tech manual to do the repair take a look at selectmanuals.com.

Not for this repair, but you need an online copy of the operators manual here is a link.
