    How to Separate Steering Shaft Arm from Yoke?

    Still won't budge after applying penetrating oil, although being a vertical connection the oil can't really soak in. Does anybody have any thoughts and/or advice? Thanks

    How to Separate Steering Shaft Arm from Yoke?

    I'm sorry, thought my profile was working. It is a 2630.

    How to Separate Steering Shaft Arm from Yoke?

    I need to replace the seal located between the steering shaft arm and yoke. The tech manual makes separating these pieces seem simple; just “remove steering shaft arm cap screw and pull steering and yoke shaft from right side of clutch housing”. The I & T manual suggests to “bump steering...

    Sources for Used Parts

    I need to replace my 2630 rock shaft cylinder and piston. Before spending the $1,200 for new parts I'd like to investigate used. My dealer told me about a place in Kern County (CA) and a buddy mentioned one in Saxton MO and one in Breeze IL. Does anyone have suggestions about where else to...

    2630 Hydraulic Problems – Further Troubleshooting

    The loader is an E0048. Front tires are 11L-15. Pressure runs about 2100 at the steering valve input but the needle bounces around a lot.

    2630 Hydraulic Problems – Further Troubleshooting

    I still have problems with my steering but I now know how to recreate the problem. I am hoping someone will know which component is failing after reading this. If the loader is sitting on the ground the steering works perfectly; 1 finger lock to lock turns, sitting on concrete. If the loader...

    2630 Steering Gear Shaft & Yoke

    When removing my steering column I drained the oil from the gear shaft and yoke area, where the connecting rod attaches to the yoke, as instructed by the tech manual. The oil was very thick and black. I wiped the area out as best I could and flushed it with 2 or 3 quarts of oil. I could not find...

    Brake Disk Thickness

    Yes, a 2630. Sorry, I should have mentioned that; I added that to my profile for future reference. 0.380 is what my dealer told me and what I found on the JD parts website. But if that is a true figure, my pad in question (right side) measures 0.386 so it is thicker than new. One reason I'm...

    Cracked Tranny Oil Line

    Thanks. After looking at the diagram in the tech manual I suspected the filter relief valve but it is perfectly clean with a strong spring. I’d like to disable it somehow, just to make sure, but can’t figure out how to do that yet. I don’t see a divert valve in the diagram. Would that be the...

    Cracked Tranny Oil Line

    My two replies so far tell two completely different stories. Anybody else interested in weighing in? Regarding the lines and oil cup, I can’t figure out how they function. I’m wondering: 1) Which direction does the oil flow; from the center of the gear shafts into the lines or from the cup...

    Brake Disk Thickness

    Yes, removing the axle housing was very easy and I'm pouring money into this tractor like crazy so I'd like to save or defer $200 if I can. I don't know if there is 80% or 10% left on the outer pad.

    Brake Disk Thickness

    I pulled apart my final drive to check the brakes. The disks seem to have different material on the outside then the inside. The outsides are red, the insides black. The outer on the left side was almost completely gone, just a very thin layer that peeled off when I removed the disk so it...

    Cracked Tranny Oil Line

    During troubleshooting for my intermittent hydraulic problems I discovered that the tranny oil line is cracked. The crack is in the tube that connects to the oil cup, where the tube enters the round hub (see attachment). Someone in the past had replaced and rewelded it but it is loose enough...
