So how much trouble am I in ?

[dergrah]

Well this is going to cost me. Hit a big rock with the snow blower and the shear pin went. Re placed it and finished the job. Next time I noticed I was leaking hydraulic fluid from the PTO shaft. Thought it was the seal and so did the dealer. Went to replace it today an I found out I bused the housing holding the shaft. I think that it's that whole rear end casing ?

Any one care to guess what I have to replace and what this is going to cost in parts and possibly labour? I normally fix my own stuff but this looks like a huge job. Would anyone know how well the shop manual would cover replacing the rear end casing?

This is a BX24.

Thanks,

Derek

Ouch, that hurts to look at! Do you have KTAC insurance? If so, all you will have to pay is the $250.00 deductable.

KTAC ? Don't know what that is. Likely not something offered in Canada.

KTAC (Kubota Tractor Acceptance Corporation http://www.ktacinsuranceagency.com) is a Kubota endorsed insurance company. Not sure if it's offered in Canada or not, maybe someone else can chime in on whether it is or not. Just wanted to make sure you remembered to use KTAC if you had it.

Took quick look at WSM. Total 23 pages removal/disassy...level of detail a bit light, but then I'm used to GM shop manuals. If you're a gearhead with a place to work, probably doable...

what type of shear pin did it use.. grade 10?

Do you have a loan on the tractor? If so you may have KTAC.

Thanks, I do have it in the garage and bit of a gear-head. I guess ill need the get a hold of WSM to see what I'm getting into. It will be interesting to see what the dealer quotes to fix it. The case is an $875 part.
