'02 Mahindra; Cub RZT50
Hello! just joined this Forum; am looking forward to reading and learning. I have a '02 Mahindra E350 that has been a jewel; has been used and some maintenance has been done. (Oil and fuel filters etc.) I now have a problem with the driveshaft for the mower deck. I just changed the U joint on the drive shaft; reinstalled it; and now when I engage the PTO the driveshaft turns slow; increasing the power it still barely turns. I guessed it was low on fluid; it was; didn't touch the dipstick. I added about a gallon of hydraulic fluid; tried again; same thing. ANY help?? (I do have to comment one more thing.) While fumbling around the drive shaft; I did notice a grease fitting on the PTO clutch (didn't know it was there) that has never been touched. Will get lubed today.

Is the U joint secured to both shafts?

Perhaps you striped the gears in the gear box.
