Long time no post... I'm in a bind.

I'm looking for a cross reference for Bobcat PN# 6697252, Gasket, for the hydrostatic assembly.

It goes between the Front Cover casting and the pump body.

Bobcat CT235 SN# A9JY11001 & above.

Hopefully Kioti still carries the part, but I don't have a parts manual for them.

Thanks.

This is the part in question. You can see the deformity in two places. I don't know how it ever not leaked.

might research Permatex Grey. Have used it for years. Has more holding ability than most. Always used on rear axle covers. No leaks.... a bit tough to take apart though :)

Ya, I would be hesitant to put that in a pump body..... The gasket also sets the clearance on the pump faces.

Bobcat NY has access to the part apparently. Will be ordering on Monday.

Interesting how the gasket got sucked in and cracked. Must be low pressure/vaccum in that area.
Curious what symptoms you had to direct you to this gasket. Did you have a lot of air introduced into the hydraulic fluid?

It's been like this since day one. ( the tractor is a 2011 )

You can see the witness marks on the gasket where it was clamped out of shape between the castings.

It started as a slow drip that I noticed in early summer and by the time I got my hay in the barn it was pissing fluid everywhere. No loss of performance to either the hydrostatic or the hydraulics.
