When you’re hooking up implements and the three-point hitch feels sloppy or you notice hydraulic fluid seeping around the lower links, worn draft seals are usually the culprit. This seal fits snugly around your 25.5mm lower link shaft, keeping hydraulic pressure where it belongs while preventing dirt and moisture from getting into the system that controls your implement positioning.
What You’re Getting
- Precise dimensions (24.9 x 36.2 x 6.7mm) engineered for John Deere three-point systems
- Heavy-duty construction that handles the constant movement and pressure of hitch operation
- Quality materials resist hydraulic fluid and temperature extremes
- Direct replacement that restores proper sealing without modifications
Built for Real Farm Work
This seal is designed for John Deere tractors that spend their days moving between different implements – from bush hogs to cultivators to balers. Whether your 2040 is handling hay equipment, your 2750 is pulling tillage tools, or your 3130 is running a loader and backhoe, the three-point hitch gets a workout. These seals take the punishment of constant cycling and pressure changes while keeping your hydraulic system clean.
Made to Last
Farm hydraulics work in tough conditions with dirt, temperature swings, and constant pressure. This draft seal uses materials that stay flexible in cold weather and won’t deteriorate from hydraulic fluid exposure. It’s built to handle the daily grind of implement changes and field work without premature failure.
Installation Notes
You’ll need to remove the lower link to replace this seal, which is a good time to check the link bushings and pins for wear. Clean the shaft thoroughly before installing the new seal – any scratches or debris will cause the new seal to leak. A thin coat of hydraulic fluid on the seal lip during installation helps it seat properly and prevents damage.
