    Tx Jim, TimS, and/or Ryan_289?

    I didn't know the 'plug' was actually to plug the hole. I thought it was a part that went in tight around the lift pin to the sealing washer. Apparently, the sealing washer takes place of the teflon washer and rubber o-ring. I was told the newer bushing/sealing washer worked better than the...

    Tx Jim, TimS, and/or Ryan_289?

    I have a 1977 JD301A (Serial #282448) and replaced the T22098 washer and A4730R o-ring last summer. One side is leaking at a rate of about 1 quart every 3 days. The Load Shaft L26932 appears in like new condition so I'm not sure replacing it will help much. I have the T22097 bushing. What...

    JD301A Load Control Bushing/Sealing Washer?

    I replaced the washer (T22098) and o-ring (A4730R) last summer and one side is still leaking, about a quart every 3 days. I had to "work" the white teflon washer to get it into the slot and possibly damaged it. I"ve been told to replace the bushing with a L41196 bushing and use the L55844...

    Shear Pin Adaptor to Spline?

    Not sure what happened with those characters. Let me try again. I have a 1 3/8 inch smooth yoke on a new driveshaft that was given to me. This end has a 1/2 inch hole for a shear pin and is most likely for a rotary cutter. My brothers rotary cutter has a splined shaft coming out of the...

    Shear Pin Adaptor to Spline?

    I have a free driveshaft that has a 1 3/8+ACY-quot+ADs- smooth end with a 1/2+ACY-quot+ADs- diameter hole for a shear pin. The other splined end has a quick release for attaching it to the pto. I can use my brothers rotary cutter, but it has a splined male end at the gearbox with a...

    JD301A most comparable to what Agric. tractor?

    I"ve read a 1020, 1520, and 1530. The JD301A looks like the frame and body are a 1530 with a 152ci - 1020 engine. Both the 1520 and 1530 have 164ci engines.

    3-Point Hitch Draft Link offset?

    I've noticed that the center link on my JD301A is offset to the right of the pto and that the right draft link has about 8" to 10" of width adjustment compared to only 2" on the left draft link. The right draft link is also slightly curved inward....it doesn't look bent from an impact. Is this...

    Lift Arm Capacity?

    Where can I find the Lift Arm Capacity for a JD301A? I"ve looked through the parts catalog and operator"s manual and can"t find anything.

    Running Implements rated higher than PTO hp???

    I have a JD301A that"s about a 45 hp tractor. I found a good deal on a used 6" rotary cutter that is heavy duty and has a 65 hp gearbox. I believe it has Cat II pins and my JD301A I think has a Cat I hitch. Would my tractor use this rotary cutter effectively or is it too big of an implement...

    John Deere 302A Serial Number Location

    My JD301A has the basic serial number plate on the right-hand side of the front support, or the transmission case. If you"re sitting in the seat, look to your right below the seat on the side of the transmission case. Around the area where the transmission dipstick is located. The engine...

    Slow Hydraulic/Transmission Oil Leak?

    I have a minor hydraulic/transmission oil leak at the hydraulic pump on my JD301A tractor. I talked to a John Deere Industrial mechanic and he recommended trying some Tranny Honey before replacing all the o-rings and seals in the hydraulic pump. Has anyone tried using the Bars Leak...

    JD301-A engine oil amount?

    I changed the oil filter. I"ll have to check it after I start the tractor.

    JD301-A engine oil amount?

    My book states that the JD301-A takes 6 quarts of engine oil. Another part in the operating manual states that it takes 9 quarts. I was checking the oil on the dipstick as I filled it and after only adding 4 quarts, I'm above the fill mark on the dipstick. I'm going to wait until I start it...

    JD 301-A Hydraulic Pump?

    What is the part connected directly to the hydraulic pump at the front? After cleaning the tractor, the small leak doesn't appear to be in the hydraulic pump. It is coming out directly ahead of the pump toward the transmission. Very small leak so I don't think I'm going to mess with it. I...

    Load Control Washer O-Ring....not what I expected.

    On my JD301A, I changed out the Load Control teflon washer and o-ring where the draft links connect on the pin at the 3-point hitch....definately not what I was expecting. Does the o-ring and teflon washer go into the bushing? The o-ring went into the slot easily, but the teflon washer had to...
