Hydraulic oil leak from spit pin/drain port
low

Slow hydraulic oil leak from the spit pin (drain valve port) underneath the tractor, discovered immediately after hydraulic system service. Oil beads continuously from the pin, likely a seal issue introduced during maintenance.

Bad seals? How hard is fix
low

So I have this Kubota L5030 from 2004. 3000 hrs on it. Bought it last summer as a light duty tillage tractor. Trying not to beat on it too badly and I’ve already replaced the 4 wheel drive axel seal but I had my mechanic do it. Noticed it was leaking oil last fall but I didn’t do much about it and parked for the winter. Came today to check out how bad it is and noticed the bottom of the axel housing had a loose ‘cap’? I cleaned it up and banged it back in but I feel there it most likely more to fix and replace. There’s probably other seals that need replacing too. I’m pretty good with mechanic work and would like to try and break it apart and do it myself. How difficult would this be? Any resources are gladly welcome.

Hydraulic Oil Leak
low

Hello, I have a Kubota L5030 that my brother and I recently serviced for a hydraulic leak. It was coming from a bad seal on a quick disconnect coupler for a grapple attachment. Replaced the coupler and flushed all the oil and changed filters. Seemed to stop the leak, from that area. But now we have a slow leak of oil coming out of the spit pin ( I'm not sure what to call it, that little port underneath with a pin you can push up and down, near where you drain the oil ). I'm pretty confident that this wasn't there before and we noticed the oil coming out of there right away , it's not a lot, just a bead off oil on that pin constantly. Any ideas?

Kubota leaking near front axel
low

I just got this Kubota L5030 this year and been using it a little bit. I noticed that there’s oil leaking from under the tractor at the front near where the axel attaches. How bad of a fix is this? Is it the seal?
