Warren there is a kit to address this issue depending on the serial number, it's a bearing support kit and helps to prevent it from happening again. -A Kubota Engineer :)
Former kubota tech. They came out with a PIP on these to replace the carrie that bolts to the front of the oil pan. Something about and alignment issue that was causing rhes things to strip. I replaced several of these for this same issue
Your troubleshooting process is very informative. I think your thought process can be applied to all machinery. Guess I will be watching for part 2! Thank you, Warren.
You are so smart! Lifting that tractor and watching those shafts turn may have saved the owner a ton of money. Your video sure shows the problems with that 4 wheel system. The viewers are right-this is going to be a great series! Thanks for Great video Warren!
Good old tractors with the full time 4-wheel drive. Grease it, keep oil in it, always worked. No clutches. Gears. Always stayed meshed. Screw the extra fuel usage.
Looks like another cluster. It seems like every make has something that makes it nearly impossible to find and fix issues without taking it down to axles. Good Luck Warren.
This is actually a very common problem for is here in south Africa with all tractors the front drive shaft coupler wears off very fast due to the pivot bushings wearing out
That's why you're a great mechanic. You were certain that it was the 4-wheel drive clutch pack, and everyone would have gotten tunnel vision and went forward on splitting that tractor and taking it all apart. But you... decide to jack it up and do some more checking.
Hi Warren and Blake, Thanks for sharing this valuable knowledge about Kubota tractors. Im enjoying your videos, because you speak your mind...Kudos. Thanks! Take care and be easy on those knees.
Assuming tractors use book times like automobile mechanics. Someone with access to book times should start adding together all the book times for each model. The total book time for each model and being able to see that across brands would be interesting, that's the easiest way I can think of to create a "ease of repair" metric. Would be interesting to see this on passenger vehicles as well.
My grandpa never had 4wd Tractor or trucks on farms until late 1980s.. He said its not needed if you are careful ..true We only use 4wd when stuck then stay in 2wd on pavement always. Chains on rear also . Kubota are nice good machines otherwise. Nice work Thanks
@@zuestoots5176 we don't use on loader either 90% power goes to weak front gearing with huge wheels when loading bucket. These are not heavy duty CAT loader etc. Tiny shafts gears on front.
What’s funny is you never hear people compliment the engineers for the other 99.9% of the amazing work creating equipment that can last and preform incredibly. Intricate knowledge of tolerances, complex forces, thermal expansion, stress/strain, manufacturability, cost, etc. An immense amount of knowledge. A capability that most technicians don’t comprehend. But when one bolts hard to get at... well you get the point..
Oh come on Warren we know deep down in your heart you love Kubota's it put's money in your pocket when you work on them 🤣🤣🤣🤔 Nice job troubleshooting and finding some of the problem's. Maybe check that shaft and bearing going into the front end just because. Blake is getting ahead of himself then having to go backwards it happen to all of us that is how we learn next time Blake will know not to take the step off so soon. Keep up the good work Blake. I loved the rant now to watch again. Have some extra 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I would like to say I received my hat and the hand written letter inside meant so much to me warren, not to mention it was the peanuts I wish y’all the best of luck and the best in life god bless!!!!
They are like the automotive industry to make it as complicated and difficult as possible. The repairs get to be astronomical the people just trade them in on new ones.
Warren , the girlfriend has a pit mix puppy that can gas out the room. I've made comments she should sell it to natural gas companies. 🙂😎😎😎 The tractor looks like a bad puzzle. 🤔
I think the rear coupler is splined and the pin just keeps it from sliding off. But I think the forward couple is splined to the front diff, but smooth to the shaft. The pin is what locks the shaft and coupler together, and acts as a sheer pin.. If the front and rear coupler are different part number I think it would confirm this. So I think it just sheered the sheer pin. If the end of the shaft broke off, then it would have fallen out in your lap when you pulled off the coupler. Unless of course someone else has been in there ahead of you which is always possible.
dont take the loader off unless you have to. you could have used that to lift the front end off the front axle to get that shaft out. kubotas are good machines it they are taken care of. every one i ever worked on that broke was a filthy muddy mess that never seen a good service.
I would agree with you that Kubota's design for their mfwd on all the entire lineup is the worst design. I've taken so many apart with low hours and the front drive shaft has either stripped the splines off the shaft or the pinion. Or the roll pin that holds the couplers between the multi-piece drive shaft has broke or worn out and allowed the couplers to slide off the splines. Horrible design. I still love Kubota for most other things. For sure the best small diesel engines by a landslide. Good luck.
eager to see, had one with stripped drive spline coupler. and yep, strippers! I replaced both couplers, roll pins and the intermediate shaft and greased the dickens out of it, ours goes ummm swimming now and again and it all rusted out and failed. I think the couplers are soft. If it gets run in 4wd a lot, that small geared front end seems to throw a lot of metal into the oil.
One has to wonder about the amount of engineering that must go into the design of those units where they focus on making it impossible to fix while at the same time guaranteeing failure.
If the shaft was broke at the roll pin wouldn’t the stub still be there? It couldn’t fall out of the coupler could it? How much end play when everything is in place? Hard to say how long it was just grinding away on those splines
So much truth to the overcomplicated set up my dad has been an equipment mechanic for years and my uncle's 50 horse had a leaking trans gasket had to do the same thing for him loader cab mid section floor assembly everything just to change a gasket
Hi Warren, could it be that the 4wd is being automatically engaged for some clever reason. Double check the pressure just to be sure. As you know many kick in the 4wd for some reason ie under braking, and the operator will never know.
hello one thing you can do if the customer doesn't want to spend the money on a new shaft is when you install the new coupler put it on so the pin is cross wise to the worn groove. then at least the end play of the shaft would be back in spec. But i'm probably telling you something you have already thought of.
So you customer has left the bi-speed turn engaged all the time while running the loader on dry surfaces and one of the couplers has proven to be the weak link ? I am pretty sure the owners manual specifically advises against that, Sad because even without the bi-speed it turns much sharper than the European designs. BTW how about commenting on the difference between U-joints and bevel gears ? Please do them a favor and disable the bi-speed
That’s a dirty trick capturing the driveline that way. I’ve seen the front axle pivot worn causing the shaft to be miss aligned causing the coupling to wear. Built way to light.
Wha a chore of a job. I’d probably have you go ahead and rebuild the damn transmission while you’re in there, since you’ve already done 2/3rds of that job.
No doubt you are wondering which is worst, JCB or Kubota right now? JCB parts = Bad Kubota emgineering = Even worse! The mystery deepens and viewers await in great anticipation!
Check the front axle pivot bushings for excess clearance and also too much end play forward and backward. Haven't had a problem with Kubota, but Massey/White/Agco have the same basic setup = no u-joints and splined couplers. If the front axle pivot bushings go too far they create alignment issues for the front driveline and take out the splines. Too much end paly and the splines get filed off as the axle moves fore and aft under torque. I've had to do a front axle crown & pinion because the splines wore off the pinion, that got expensive. Rather have softer splines in the couplers. Hate to tell you but Case MXM manual details cab removal and split tractor to do the MFWD clutch. The cost of progress as engineers get further and further removed from reality.
Thanks again for the great video Warren. My question is, is there anything on the other side of the coin about Kubota? Is there anything they do that's smarter than the others or is it all bad?
Hello Warren ,Good work as Always, It will be interesting to see if that front shaft is broken off, It kind of looks like it, I had one piece of equipment I worked on break off at the bolt hole & it stopped driving, it looks all chewed up now & in my opinion need to be replaced & what caused this ?
I have 4 Kubs in my fleet and those couplers fail every year or so because of running in 4x4 all the time. I keep them in stock easy fix just annoying.
It's important to step back and regroup before going any further. The obvious is sometimes hard to detect when working on a poorly designed equipment. I sure do miss the wiener dog! where's Duke? Hope your knee is better and Blake is learning from the master for sure!
Well, you shouldn't really use this video as a deciding factor to buy a tractor. You're comparing a CUT to a big Ag tractor... Obviously the construction will be different. Up to CUTs, Kubota is about the best one out there. A bit overrated and overpriced like JD, but still good one. Then you have these underrated Korean brands, like LS, Kioti and Branson, that offer lots of goodies for much less money than the other big two.
I own 9 kubotas and have run them for 20 years we had 2 that were 20 years old and never had a breakdown we farm 1600 acres of land with hay and cattle we also do commercial hay Kubota tractors are solid we have thousands of hours on them and little breakdowns matter of fact I have never had the four wheel drive go out and all of them from the 108 to the 9540 have gave little trouble
My Br-n-law is on his second K'botah B-Series (B3350) for 40+ acre site. 1st one was traded in and he only lost $2K in depreciation (it was 5 years old and really low hours!) for a newer model with cab (ac/heat/radio) and snowblower attachment. No backhoe but still, its overkill for his needs. Reliable as long as you follow the maintenance.
@@harborcbs exactly youdon't use a lawnmower in the hay field and you don't use a 100 horse tractor to pull large implements I think the reason for all of these broken machines are usually the operator I saw a guy loading dirt and digging with a little kubota tractor and anybody with any brains at all knows a tractor is not made to dig it's made to move loose material hay and small projects but they seem to think that it has a loader so now they have the capability of a 953 hahahaahh
Must be time to look into your dog's food issues had dog eat some deer meat oh my hell it would curl the wallpaper 😂 it will be interesting to see what you find out on your favorite tractor
We have a Kabota dealer here locally , from what I hear you saying about them , ffs I can't run far enough in opposite direction if in the market for a tractor .
You said they had a no thought process making Kubota and didn't think about what they were doing when they put this together. Ooo they did it's called money so you can bring it in so they can make the dough. that's why there making everything so difficult and super hard for you to deal with so you can bring it in so they can make Bank $$$$$$$$$$$
The manager should have "imprinted" on the operator the KISS theory. If the steering doing the "heebie jeebies" STOP and call me. Locked differentials "talk" to you when on paved surfaces. It's up to the operator to listen! KISS. Keep it simple stupid. If that upsets the operator, let them split wood till they get over it! Managers need to manage. It called communication! If you didn't tell them, don't blame them.
I had a B7500 compact tractor. 4 clutches in 500 hours. Wore the splines out just like that coupler. The next owner has put another one in it. I don't like them.
If you had that much trouble with a Kubota your either incompetent or you don't know what size you need which goes back to the first point I have never seen a Kubota go thru 4 clutches we do commercial hay in Tennessee on grounds as steep as 55 degrees we run 9 Kubota machines and two case tractors zero major issues or breakdowns on the Kubota we just now put a clutch in the case but it's only been baling for 8 years at 2000 rolls a year
All I did with the tractor was mow. I had four acres to mow. 60 inch belly mower. All work was done at the dealership. Kubota was no help. No one could find the cause.
@@jerrynelson3910 it may have been there incompetence and not yours a dealer can make you or break you regardless what color you pick we have a few choices here and the rest suck
Saw you slip on the Kabota. Don’t take much to break a bone - like your back at worst. My Parkinson’s has made me incredibly unstable - I fall regularly- VA has “FALL RISK” on every piece of paper related to me - had to stop farming as result. Hope you have disability insurance. God Bless
Yup, it's just about typical. You take the wants and needs of the end user, a few design and ergo ideas from the design boys, toss in a hand full of regulatory bull from the government(s) in which you want to sell them in, then hand it all to the "engineers" to lay it all out. And this is what you end up with for the poor service guys that have to fix what's been "professionally engineered".. Great if your a dealership, but if your the end user trying to keep the ends meeting to be profitable, your paying through the nose for servicing.. Hang in there Warren, least you got Blake to help with the grunting... Cheers!
The same idiot engineer designed one of our big broach machines. All others use belview washers to hold the clamps together and need apply hydraulic pressure to release. Thank God we got rid of that piece of junk a while back.
Not impress with Kubota or other foreign MFG , USA tractor are more expensive but more durable as well , Nothing lasts for ever, and eventually all will have issues. Come to think of it I don't think there's a tractor under 120 HP made in USA .
Damn, i think i'll just keep my old 1948, 8N, 28-hp ford 4 cylinder Tractor .. Take a few nuts and bolts off and there you are... To much B S on these new tractors ..

Talk to your man their there's big money to be made here. Learn everything from him you can. Don't waste his knowledge. Carry it on.

Yup, it's just about typical. You take the wants and needs of the end user, a few design and ergo ideas from the design boys, toss in a hand full of regulatory bull from the government(s) in which you want to sell them in, then hand it all to the "engineers" to lay it all out. And this is what you end up with for the poor service guys that have to fix what's been "professionally engineered".. Great if your a dealership, but if your the end user trying to keep the ends meeting to be profitable, your paying through the nose for servicing.. Hang in there Warren, least you got Blake to help with the grunting... Cheers!
Screw Kubota they can keep their tractors.
I love your bitching Tell's me to stay away save your money from a mechanic's point of view.
The same idiot engineer designed one of our big broach machines. All others use belview washers to hold the clamps together and need apply hydraulic pressure to release. Thank God we got rid of that piece of junk a while back.
leave it up to the Japanese to design something that you have to disassemble the tractor to do a simple fix
They seem to have major issues at 1200 hours that others have at 6000 hours. 10000 hour half ass maintained deere have less repair cost. Lol
Not impress with Kubota or other foreign MFG , USA tractor are more expensive but more durable as well , Nothing lasts for ever, and eventually all will have issues. Come to think of it I don't think there's a tractor under 120 HP made in USA .
Damn, i think i'll just keep my old 1948, 8N, 28-hp ford 4 cylinder Tractor .. Take a few nuts and bolts off and there you are... To much B S on these new tractors ..
