Cub Series 5000 Rear Axle
61
REASON FOR CHANGE:
The rear axles of Cub Cadet Series 5000 compact trac-
tors built during 2003, with serial numbers lower than
that are used with a backhoe attachment should be up-
graded part of the backhoe installation process.
The upgraded axles are dimensionally identical to the
original axles. They can be identified by the letters
“BH” stamped on the end if the axle.
1. PREPARATION:
1.1. Position the tractor on firm level ground.
1.2. Clean the areas surrounding the rear axle horns
to prevent dirt from contaminating the transmis-
sion fluid. If the fluid is to be partially drained
and re-used, clean the areas surrounding the
drain plug as well.
1.3. If other attachments such as a cutting deck are
presently on the tractor it will be easier to drain
roughly 3 gallons of fluid out of the transmission
than to remove the attachments. This may be
the case when a customer anticipates the instal-
lation of a backhoe in the near future. If there
are no attachments mounted on the tractor yet,
tilting the tractor at a 20 degree angle will permit
the procedure to be done without draining the
fluid. See Figure 1.3.

1.4. Place a clean drain pan under the front of the
transmission housing. Remove the drain plug
using a 5/8” wrench. See Figure 1.4.
1.5. After draining sufficient transmission fluid, install
the drain pug.
1.6. If the tractor has no attachments installed, it can
be safely lifted and supported at a 20 degree
angle. See Figure 1.6.
NOTE: At this angle, the axle can be removed
with minimal loss of fluid.
1.7. Remove the left rear wheel using a 3/4” socket.
1.8. Place a drain pan under the left rear axle seal.
