John Deere GT 235, Ford 1700
Hello all - I've never posted to a forum, but I can't seem to find anyone with a similar issue so here it goes. I recently picked up a 2000 John Deere GT235. It's in fantastic shape and everything works like new. I noticed yesterday however that the tractor seems to be leaning to the right. Anyone with a similar issue or have any ideas as to why that might be? It almost looks as if it's the body that's leaning. I've checked the pressure in all the tires and they are where they should be. I'm parking on a level pad of concrete when I'm seeing it. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Do you notice it when you are sitting on the seat which may be a weak seat spring or rubber spacer on one side? I noticed on my X740 it was leaning but noticed there was a rubber bumber under the seat that came loose.

Did you measure from the ground to the fender deck to just make sure and to tell us how much it is leaning. There may be a bracket holding the fender to the frame that came loose on one side.

I never heard of a JD GT leaning except from tires improperly inflated, or from drinking to much.

it's nothing with the front end, since it pivots in the middle, and follows the rear wheels. so either the body or frame is off, measure both from the body to the concrete, and the frame to the concrete..
