I have recently seen many kubota owners finding their front 4wd case oil to be significantly low. Today i took a look at my L2501 and added oil to the proper amount.
I just checked my 2501 and it was completely empty. Thank you for the heads up ! I would have ruined my tractor if it wasn’t for this video! Thank you so much!
It takes some time for it to go through the pivot, especially when it’s cold. Don’t forget to take your grease gun to the pivot after you open the vent. I change my front end every hydraulic change. I use gear oil, the thicker the better. 👍
Great tip for those who are unaware. I checked my Kubota tractor day of delivery when new. And 4yrs (160hrs) later, its still clean and on the full mark on the dip stick. I very diligent about checking ALL my fluids before i start & use my tractor`s. Most people don`t, and then that is when they get in trouble. Its not hard to check the fluids before starting it.
If you use your tractor to remove snow you should swap your front axle to the 85-90W gear oil. What happens is you are using it and working it in the cold. When you are done you park it and all the fluid got warm from working so it melts the snow. The gear oil is pretty thick and does not warm up as much as the hydraulic fluid that most manufacturers put in there. As everything cools it contracts and can suck that water inside your front axle. Their has been many people that have popped their dipstick out only to find their gears and front axle were all rusted up from water contamination. The thicker gear oil does not get as warm and you don't have that problem.
Thank you 🙏. I went to the garage. Broke the check open, nothing. Broke the fill and put an additional 2.5 quarts of 85-90 until it started leaking out ….. not ok with this. I’m so glad you posted this video.
Thanks buddy. Saw video about a week ago. Finally found my front axel drain and fill. Fluid was trans fluid, changed with 90 weight heavy oil. It was considerably low, not touching dip stick. Thanks! You increased the life of my axel.
Thanks for the great intel brother! Getting ready for my 50hr service for my L3901 so I'll definitely check it now! People like you is why I do my research on here! Thanks again!
I’m picking up my new L3902 next week! Definitely gonna check these fluids also. Just traded in my L2501…never saw a leak so figured it was fine..…only had 135 hrs
This video is performing really well! I changed it at around 900 on my M6060, still looked clean. This is something that should be checked day one on getting a tractor, my bx was very low and I didn’t catch it for a long time. I only did check because of hearing other people talk about this issue. Appreciate you mentioning my channel! Excellent video Richie!
I did a video last summer on my channel Ben and when I checked the level, it was low. I checked it after I brought the tractor home but hadn't run it in 4Wd. I was shocked at how low it was with just over 200 hours on the tractor. Since filling, I have checked twice and the level is right where it is supposed to be. I think Richies theory is spot on. Totally makes sense to me.
just got my new L2501 delivered awhile ago. put it strait into the garage until this weekend. gonna check this and all the other fluids. Thanks a bunch for the heads up and keep up the great videos 💪🏻🤙🏻
Thanks for the video. I just changed the axile oil in my BX23S. I only had 150 hrs, but saw it was low. Turned out it was a little over half but I didn’t see ant meatal shavings. Shame because the dealer supposedly did my 50 hr check. I have now went back and did everything they charged me for.
My B7800 has a dipstick (yellow plastic) on the front axle, which looks very similar to yours. Industrial sight plugs are available for many threads, and it might be worth retrofitting the non-dipstick models, then you could check the level with a flashlight. My B7800 (2006 model year) had 570hrs on it and was a tad low when I got it. I did a full service on it with all Kubota parts from Messicks and used UDT-2 (7 gallons) as well, not cheap but cheaper than replacing the finals or worse. I do need to be more diligent about pre-flight checks, especially when it's sub zero out. Good video, hope it saves some tractor owners big repairs, Thanks!
It seems this video has raised a lot of awareness which was my intention. I dont think being two quarts low will cause catastrophic damage but better to be within specification versus not even checking it!
Agreed, i would hate to see someone go to do the 800 hour service and come to find that they have been low on fluid for that many hours. And by that time most likely out of warranty.
Thanks for the reminder it is a lot easier to check on a B2601. I check it every year but this is a new year so heading out to do it right now before I forget😁👍
Good morning Luc, Im really glad to hear that you were able to address it before putting too many hours on the machine. Hope you are staying warm up there!
@@HillsideAcres 👍🏻, it’s really cold 🥶 but the extreme cold warning has ended, temperatures should be reasonable for this week 👍🏻. Have a good one 🙋🏼♂️🙂👍🏻
I agree with your assessment. I doubt it's dealer policy, but the mechanic is cutting corners. Of course if there is an issue, the dealer will say you are not doing the proper maintenance. Great Tip Richie - Enjoy the journey - cheers
I just bought a 2022 L2501. It’s my first ever tractor. I check all my fluids when they delivered it to me except the front axle. Mine took almost a whole gallon of Super UDT2 fluid. Luckily I only put 4 hours on it before realizing this issue. Thank you so much for this video. You saved me a big headache down the road!
How's she goin'? Great tip here and thanks for sharing. I have a Massey Ferguson GC2300 sub-compact tractor and the front axle leaks oil around the pivoting joint for the offset drive to the wheels. I check this oil level probably every other time I take the tractor out as it is often low on oil!! Thanks for sharing and take care!!!
Great tip, Richie! We shouldn’t assume them come full from the factory or don’t lose oil. I changed mine at 400 hours, because like you, I thought 800 hours was too long to wait. Thanks for sharing!
I think the l-2501 requires 4.5 litres Canadian{?}.i checked mine and it required 2 litres of oil.They only put in half the required oil.That really opened my eyes as to the inspection and PDI of this piece of equipment.For the amount you pay for Kubota,there should be no guessing,it should be spot on!Good vid.
Thanks for the info. When I did my 200 HR service on my 2017 BX I checked it. It was 1-2 qts low. My Kubota service manual says to "change" it at every 400 hrs. My fill plug on my Kubota 2380 for the front axle case is on top Driver's side. I also found a socket extension buried/stuck under the tractor and a miscellaneous bolt and washer just laying around. Can't remember where, but I wonder who is prepping these for delivery? Oh, and also, the height adjustment knob for the mower deck is just impossible to turn at times without a pair of large channel locks
My BX was low too straight from the dealer. When I changed it , went with gear oil and just elevated the axle a bit so I could rotate the wheels by hand. That settled the oil into the hub straight off. Been good since and I’m at 680 hours. Surprised your 2501 doesn’t have a dip stick for the front axle. Thought that was standard. Thanks for the reminder though as I should probably change mine again soon.
Received my L2501 DT Friday, opened over flow…nothing…opened fill plug and stuck my finger all the way down. Only felt residual on axle tube, I could not feel a fluid level, I will be topping it off tomorrow, glad I checked with .3 hours cause it’s low. Transmission oil is also not on sight glass, pointed it out from dealer deliver he said he will give me some free fluid. Thanks!!
The use of UDT in the front differentials on these tractors can lead to leaks in the knuckle seals. It was recommended to me by the dealer to use 75/80 weight gear oil which is thicker and will not bypass the seals.
Ive had an issue with my 40 year old L where there would be too much pressure in the case when warm; causing fluid to blow by the seals. First I tried a plastic stand-up vent but it got torn off. I got a bolt with the correct thread and drilled a 90 degree 1/16 hole through the head and bolt body. This provides ventilation for expansion and contraction.
wow, I went to check the level and the bolt tried to fly away from the pressure. I never thought of that. Thanks for the comment. Maybe it will stop that oil leak I am having without having to split the tractor.
it takes forever for the oil to work down into the gear reductions, So like you said you need to use it for days to recheck. do a change in the summer when its hot, leave the oil out in the sun so it thins out, their not using oil, their not full .. unless their leaking
My L3130 started leaking at the left front hub. The seal was bad so I replaced both sides. It was a bitch but doable. Had to drain a lot of fluid because it has to fill both hub gear cases also. I don't think the dealer shorted me on fluid because I checked it a couple of times a year. I think driving it on the road for 3 to 5 miles every so often did it. I now trailer it everywhere unless it is only a half mile or so. I think I went back with the Super UDT. Thanks for a good video.
I have a brand new BX2380 ( about 60 hours on it ) and now am very curious to see how much oil I have. I will be checking on this once spring arrives. Thanks for your video ! it's much appreciated !
I just checked my L2501 and just like you said it was low and I only have 89 hours on it thank you the heads up hope to see more of your videos thank you Tony G
Good morning Sir, you have a very nice AIR FORCE quality tool set 👍🧐 Yes Ben ( K&H tractor ) is a great reference man for sure 😉👌 Yes in deed, any fluids must be check often 🧐👍 OUTSTANDING VIDEO Sir and keep up your OUTSTANDING work both of you Cheers 🍻👌
you are correct, have a mx 5800 300 hours, never checked the 4 wheel drive never seen any leaks, until last week the left bearing shelled out when driving and the wheel fell off nice. anyway the axel cost me 458 dollars and the 2 race bearings and seals, another 150 dollars plus the 7.8 quarts of lube, so check are pay the price, if Kubota did the repairs you would be looking at over are close to 1500 are 2000 dollars in repairs
My 40hp was on it's 50 hour check and i had real trouble getting the service guy in Thailand to check it. so i did it while he was there watching and it took half of a 4.5 litre can and the service guy couldn't believe it .
As watched, I had to quickly check on mine as the dealer told me to use gear lube Front axle case . (SAE85-,90 gear oil) Then double checked and either or could be used. Front axle case KUBOTA UDT or SUPER UDT fluid* or SAE80, 90 gear oil. I had serviced my B2650HSDC-TLB at 400 hours and I replaced the existing fluid which was gear lube from the factory.
I just checked my 2501 and it was completely empty. Thank you for the heads up ! I would have ruined my tractor if it wasn’t for this video! Thank you so much!
You are testamony to the importance of maintenance period. Happy you caught it before damage occured.
My L2501 is two years old……check my fluid level today and ended up adding almost a gallon! Thank you for posting this!

Great info mate, much appreciated. I've just got myself a new Kubota and I am dead keen to keep a close eye on grease, oil and other fluids.
I am not a Kubota owner but I think I will check mine now too. I have 48 hours on my Branson. Thanks for the video, Richie!
Im sure its the same style front end. Open up your manual and give it a check!
Richie, thanks for pointing this out. For those of us who don't read the forums, this is great info we may have found out about when it's too late.
Agreed, i would hate to see someone go to do the 800 hour service and come to find that they have been low on fluid for that many hours. And by that time most likely out of warranty.

Good information to have. I need to check mine tomorrow. Thanks for the tip.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you. I've never checked my B3030 now with 500 plus hours on it. I'll check the front axel as soon as I can.
Thanks for doing this video - I checked my L2501 at 50 hrs and was a half gallon low!
Thanks for watching and glad you were able to straighten it out!
Thank you… great video… my 2501 was 3/4 quart low…
Great info! I will be checking my BX23s before next use!
Cant hurt to check, it seems many have been low from the factory!
Appreciate it Ritchie! Need to do an oil change anyway, I’ll check it while I’m underneath.
Thanks for watching Jeff, Let me know what you find out!
Thank you that's a good reminder I need to check mine I got a 2:45 DT love it
Hey Mike, the storm was much less than the predicted 24 inches! The pusher is great for all the open areas and parking lot we have!

Thanks Gary, this video has helped quite a few people so far which makes me feel awesome and prevent possible damage!
Great tip, Richie! We shouldn’t assume them come full from the factory or don’t lose oil. I changed mine at 400 hours, because like you, I thought 800 hours was too long to wait. Thanks for sharing!
I’m right there with you martin. Being pro active on maintaining tools and equipment is cheap insurance for a reliable operation.

My Bx2380 was down by over a quart as well which I subsequently added. I checked the fluid levels after I took delivery from my dealer.
seems that they are all low!
Thanks for this - will check mine.
Great video! I check on my 2501 as soonest i removed a plug it’s started leaking! I’m sure it was full
My l4760 was 2 qts low, total capacity is lil over 6 qts. Thanks for the tip! Lousy PDI....
I have an M5660, and I am going to check tomorrow Thanks
The use of UDT in the front differentials on these tractors can lead to leaks in the knuckle seals. It was recommended to me by the dealer to use 75/80 weight gear oil which is thicker and will not bypass the seals.
Either works fine, no leaks on either of mine. No liquid should be able to leak by
You are awesome thank you for the tip!!!
Ive had an issue with my 40 year old L where there would be too much pressure in the case when warm; causing fluid to blow by the seals. First I tried a plastic stand-up vent but it got torn off. I got a bolt with the correct thread and drilled a 90 degree 1/16 hole through the head and bolt body. This provides ventilation for expansion and contraction.
wow, I went to check the level and the bolt tried to fly away from the pressure. I never thought of that. Thanks for the comment. Maybe it will stop that oil leak I am having without having to split the tractor.
Good tip, thanks!👍🏻
You hit the nail on the head "poor serviceing".
My 2024 GMC truck was 2 quarts low in the rear also. Checked with 5000 miles and pinion gear roaring.
Man, good point. Nice save and it makes sense what you said about the dealer topoff. 🙏’freeze
Thank you for the video!!
it takes forever for the oil to work down into the gear reductions, So like you said you need to use it for days to recheck. do a change in the summer when its hot, leave the oil out in the sun so it thins out, their not using oil, their not full .. unless their leaking
Good info, thanks. Aren't tractor fluids from the manufacturer just rebranded fluids with a nice mark-up?
Appreciate the info!!!
Mine was a gallon low! I learned about checking it at about 45 hours of time.
New 2501 4 hours on it and it took well over a quart, all I have is Hyguard I hope that works with the kubota fluid.
My L3130 started leaking at the left front hub. The seal was bad so I replaced both sides. It was a bitch but doable. Had to drain a lot of fluid because it has to fill both hub gear cases also.

@@HillsideAcres I’m pretty sure it does too.
Mine was full when I checked it after buying it. My dealer is good and sells a tons of 2501s and the guys that put them together do a great job.
Thats great to hear, unfortunately ive heard more people being low versus people at the correct level
When I worked at a kubita dealer it was our policy to check it before the tractor was sold and check it again at the 5o hour service
I do all of my servicing my self. But the manual should really have checking the front axle at an earlier interval than just changing at 800 hours!
Kubota should have made a dipstick for the front axle. would have made checking the oil simple
Thanks for the tip.
I just checked my L2501 and just like you said it was low and I only have 89 hours on it thank you the heads up hope to see more of your videos thank you Tony G
