JD 2510 question 3 PT

Temp97 · Aug 16, 2012

I know this is tough without pics but I'll try to describe it and later after work upload photos if needed. In front of the shaft that the 3 pt arms are attached to there appears to be another shaft that oil has blown out of one side. Thinking that this shaft is some short of self adjusting/float control for the 3 pt system. The end of this shaft is different looking. If you google AR 90082 it shows what the end looks like. It's called a lift arm latch. This looks similiar to the cover we took off. Question is, what does this shaft do and how do we get it out??? Seems like it goes all the thru and no retaining rings holding it in,

Thanks, Sarge97

Is the 2510 in question a high crop model?? If not it has the incorrect 3pt draft arms. The AR90082 is a latch that one pulls up to allow the draft arm to extend to facilitate easier attachment of 3 pt implements. Photo below is the only photo listed in 2510 parts catalog with the part number AR90082(parts key #28).

Not a high crop, If it works There should be pictures attached. 1st pic is you can see the opening to the shaft with the odd shaped end. 2nd pic is a different angle. 3rd is a view of the pin from the underside that appears to go into the center of where the shaft goes thru. 4th shows the opening and a view of where the lift arms attach. Question how to get that shaft out??? Does that pin have to come out and how?? Don't even know forsure what this shaft does.

Thanks

I think from your photos you're actually referring to the L/D shaft not the AR90082. To R&R seals one must drain trans/hyd oil,support drawbar support,remove end caps and drive shaft out either side and R&R seals. Check shaft for wear,upon re-installation of parts, shim drawbar support side to side motion out and you're good to go after reinstalling oil.

Thanks, What about the pin in the center (#20 on your picture), does that have to come out???

#20 stays in just #16 plus seals requires removal. Be sure and put L/D control lever under the seat in "D" before removing #16.

Thanks TX JIM we'll give a go and let you know soon.

You were right, it was as simple as driving it out. Wouldn't have known to put the lever in the "D" position so thanks for that. 2 seals, $15 a piece, fairly cheap fix. Again thanks for the help,
