I have a BX2350 with only 350hrs on it. I have already replaced the seal on the "knuckle" that attaches the axle to the left fron tire. I now need to replace the seal on the right tire. I have also had other hydrolic leaks. I don't pressure wash my tractor or abuse it. Is this a common probelm for Kubota's? It seems that these major seals should last much longer than 350hrs of use.

This probably won't make you feel any better, but mine is 6 years old now and I've never had anything leak. I do check all bolts and fittings every year when I winterize, and I've found a few hydraulic fittings that took a little tightening. Seems like some things are just luck of the draw. Maybe talk to your dealer if you bought it new, at least to find out if there's any kind of service notice on the parts you've had to replace.

It may be a clip has come off the end of the shaft for the rear wheel, allowing the rear axle to shift causing the leak and not a bad seal. I had this happen to mine.
