john deere 5400

I can raise my bucket and tip in and out, but have no "power" to lift front tires off the ground. I replaced the pump (truth is I wanted one on the shelf anyways), no affect. Everything else looks good, no leaks, fluid/filter good. Kinda thunkin it may be an internal seal somewhere that...

Picked up a nice older 5400 JD but I need to do a couple things to it. Would anyone happen to have a PDf of the service or tech manual handy. Thanks

My neighbor’s dad past away two years ago and he had a 1996 John Deere 5400 tractor that his dad always used Quaker State 10W30 motor oil in, now that he is taking care of his equipment should he continue using this oil or switch to a different oil more suited for a diesel tractor?

Hi, I own John Deere 5400, year of production: 2001. During driving when the speed of movement is a little bit higher and brake pedals are pressed, it results with a strange noise, like someone thumping with a hammer. Does anyone know what could cause that noise? Thanks a lot to everyone.

I have a 1997 JD 5400. Initially I started losing power, got hard to start and eventually would no longer start. Filter and tank were full of gunk and water. Changed filter, cleaned primer on top, blew line to tank, drain and flushed tank, changed all fuel line, return line and vent with line...

Working on my brothers 5400 with no brakes. If you pump the pedals they will pump up.

Naturally I...

I have a 5400 with loader. My neighbor has been using the tractor, and now I have a problem. The right side loader mount bolts apparently worked out, and the loader shifted, striking the oil filter. I don't know the nomenclature of some of the parts, but I have an oil leak where the assembly...

Hi all, The one end on the lift link has threads that are screwed up. I am talking about the part that the rod turns into when you move the height of the lift link. It is the bottom, so it is a right hand thread. It looks like it is a 7/8" 9NC thread, but I am reluctant to go buy a tap to...
