So I was changing the oil for the first time on the 755 that I bought a few months ago. As I was underneath I saw the driveshaft which appears to have been twisted and ripped apart a bit? I'm thinking this means I should replace it maybe? What do you think? Also is that something I can do on my own?

Thanks!

Looks like it's just a cover so don't worry about it too much. I don't know how hard it is to replace. I assume it is the drive shaft to the front axle?

Yes it connects runs the length of the tractor underneath and connects to the front axle

I've never done it on a 755, but the Kubota I was just working on has two couplers with roll pins driven through the center of each. To take the drive shaft out you drive the pins out and slide the couplers allowing the shaft to come out without splitting the tractor. You can probably figure it out by looking at the parts diagrams.
