I've looked at the front axle pivot and there is not a grease zerk that I can find.
Does it not have one, or am I just not finding it?
Tractor is a 4310 EHydro 4x4.

I do not find a front axle pivot grease fitting in the tech manual or the parts drawings. Also nothing in the operator manual about greasing it.

Thanks, I looked too and couldn't find anything.
Guess it's lubed for life.:D

I did the same thing as you looking for the grease zerk. I found out that the pin is lubed by the front differential oil the pin passes through the axle.

That was the impression I got when looking at the parts drawings. The 4310 pivot is integral with the axle so no grease zerk required. My 755 pivots from above the axle so it does require a grease zerk. Pics of both attached just for reference.

I can only speak for my Kubotas. My L4400 has grease zerk and the BX1500 does not. Someone on another thread pointed it out to me and I have the parts manuals. I miss the forest for the trees sometimes.:D
