- In today's video I'll share some tips on how to "Quickly" change the hydraulic fluid in the front axle of your John Deere 1025R Tractor. You can do-it-youself in less than 20 minutes. See the notes below if you didn't catch on to the "Secrets"... 🤫

In all the 1025R videos I've watched here on RUclips, there's 2 things no one has ever suggested:
1) Open the top wheel vents & take out the dipstick when draining the fluid all at one time. They show draining the main drain and wheel drains as seperate steps???
2) Leave the top vents out while filling with the 1st half of the fluid to help make refilling the axle easier. I've not seen this "Tip" anywhere.
So some of this video may be plain common sense for some. But these "Tips" are definitely not known by all... Not even some of the "Real 1025R Pros" here on RUclips...
So, I hope this video helps some of you... Thanks for tuning in...🤫
I'm surprised that how great a video this was. I wasn't expecting much from a short little video on changing front axle fluid, since I had already done it myself and it wasn't a big deal. Wow was I wrong! The video was so professionally done and I learned so much. Even though I had already done this procedure, I found that I made a bunch of mistakes. I also love your tips about sawdust and a contractors bag. In addition to learning about the vents that I didn't know about and the extra drain plugs at the wheels that I didn't know about, I really loved how methodically you went through the process. I want to adopt that method in everything I do!
Thank you for making this!
Wow - Thank you so much for the rave review - So glad that you enjoyed it. Hopefully I convinced you to join our family by subscribing. And please be so kind to tell your friends about our channel. ❤
It takes 3 qt. ( 96 oz. ) to fill front axle
Yup - Thanks for pointing that out - That's what the manual says. I went by the video that @TractorTimewithTim put out some time ago. And had to put a bit more in but not quite 3 full quarts 👍
Trick I use on my 2520 is go to the dollar store and get a tea picture to pour your fluids . Works great no sloshing and jug gurgling. 👍🇺🇸
Great Idea 👍
who makes those allen screwdrivers? thank you
Amazon has a reasonably priced 7 piece set: Here's the link: Hex Screwdriver Allen Wrench Set Metric MM Sizes 7PCS 1.5mm to 6.0mm: amzn.to/3TdZVuv
Great video. I am in the process of doing a 200-hour service on mine. Just getting to the point of starting on the front axle and came in to take a break and cool off. I just happened on this video and learned so much while taking a short break. Thanks again and you just earned a new subscriber.
Glad it helped & thanks for subscribing 👍
Man??? I knew absolutly NOTHING. . .& I mean NOTHING. . . .about these 2 bottom wheel gearbox drain plugs nor did I know ANTHTHING about the 2 little 4 MM Allen screws on top of these 2 wheel gear boxes😲😲😲🤦🤦🤦! Only the drain plug in the center of the axle! Nobody has even mentioned them in any videos nor did John Deere when I bought the tractor back in summer of 2017!!! I'll have to remember these "4 points" the next time I'm performing a "service change"!
I've also found out that my left side steer axle wheel gear box is leaking fluid from the top steering knuckle seal. GREAT. . . .😡😡😡!!! Thanks for sharing your video, bud & thanks for the head up👍🏻
@@truckerray7533 Yup - next time you’ll get a complete drain of old fluid when you change it out - Just be sure to check the level after driving it a bit to insure all the air has purged & you have the correct amount of HF in the gear box - Sorry to hear about your leak - BTW mine is a 2019 so I assume everything is the same as a 2017 - you may want to get a vented dipstick - I hear the leaks are cause by pressure build up - see the video link below 👍✅

Thankya sir for the reply back! Yeah I've always checked the level after a bit from the axle service, just didn't know bout the other "4 points"! I don't recall when the next "series" of our 1025's were . . . .i'ld have to look it up! I've got 1239.7 hours on my little one! They say a guy will put on an average of 200 hrs on their johnys
@@truckerray7533 wow that’s a lot of hours - I’ve go a hard 650 on mine with mostly backhoe work
yeah, I've probly got that or better in hoe work myself! Done alot if digging! I've mowed quite a bit, done alot of loader work, leveling/ gradeing, digging with the hoe, plowing snow! My little one sure has come in handy & I didn't buy it to look at, lol😅! Definately been getting my share of tractor theropy! Haven't been on it much this year though! My uncle has borrowed it off n on & put probly 1/3 of those hours on!
@@truckerray7533 They certainly are invaluable little work horses - couldn’t be without it here on our mini-farm
Very helpful! Thanks!
You're welcome
how many quarts? be mice to know
Just a tad under 3 quarts 👍
My problem is my 2017 model does not have vents at the end. All I have on top is the dipstick/fill.
Wow, that will slow it down 👍
@@ClearCreekCabinMiniFarm Yep
My Kubota BX didn’t have fent either. Just do at the end of a hot working day , meaning using the tractor of course, let it drip overnight. Right before fill it, I used to blow air in one end, using the air compressor, if doing this way, nake make sure you have filters on the compressor line, so the air is dry, dont want moisture in there. I covered the fill hole with a piece of cotton rag.
This was excellent. Subscribed!
Great - Glad you liked it - Thank you…
