I have a 2003 John Deer 2210 Sub Compact Tractor I purchased recently with approximately 260 HRS. It has a full steel Curtis Cab. I ve been reading about problems with the Driveshaft issues and trying to lubricate the U Joints. I ve tried ALL the YouTube recommendations without ANY success! The problem I have for instance with the front Joint is that the Zirk fitting is turned up and so close to the Driveshaft that I ve had 0 Success getting grease into the cups of the joint. I can t really get a wrench onto the Zirk to try to loosen it a bit to allow me to get grease into it. Just too tight an area to work in. Grease everywhere but where it should go. I can move the ball of the Zirk so I know there seems to be nothing wrong with that. I THINK! The U joint that I ve inspected is the front one. It does seem perfectly fine for now. I haven t even attempted to look into the rear Joint yet. What if any other things might I try?? How much work is it to remove the Driveshaft from the Tractor?? Keep in mind I have the Curtis Cab. Is there a YouTube video explaining how this is accomplished? Whereas the U joints I m sure are fine for now but I m worried about in the future! WHAT THE HECK WERE THEY THINKING WHEN THEY DESIGNED THIS AWFUL WAY OF DOING THIS! Anyway any help would be greatly appreciated! Again. I believe I ve seen all the information so far! Is there an adapter other than the common ones that I might try. Thank you all!

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
