That makes sense, I though there had to be a seal in the steering box but I couldn’t find anything in the exploded view on Circle G’s site earlier this week.
Thank you for your help on this, I really appreciate it.

Steering shaft leak at steering wheel base, Jinma 285.
I replaced what Jinma calls a seal below the steering wheel.
I don’t know how they call this a seal since it not tight at all. It is just for a contact for the horn. The steering housing is full almost to the top of the shaft and leaks out of the top of the steering housing when running. I can’t figure out why oil is in there. Anyone have any ideas about this?
Thanks redjetster
I have a 284 Jinma with a ZL20 FEL that just stopped working. It had been having an issue lifting where I would have to rev engine up to start lifting. Today it just failed to respond. Power steering and 3 point hitch still works. I am assuming that the loader control valve is the problem. Anyone have ideas of anything else that could cause this problem?
Thanks redjetster
are the rims tubeless or tube type ? just curious.
Tubeless. going to take a few weeks to get here
maybe check out alibaba (that might be spelled wrong) they are the chinese ebay and see if maybe their selling and shipping policies are something you can deal with. just a thought.
David, alibaba was one of the first I checked. I just found a tire called Maxxis, it’s a Can-Am tire, the size is 25x8x12 with a weight classification the same as the original tire. It’s 1″ shorted and 1/2″ wider. It’s a Rib tread design and the best I’m going to be able to do at this time. I ordered 2 of them, they are coming from England. I’m sick of looking!
have you taken the name brand and size off the tire and done a net search, I did one on size and got nuttin but the brand might get something.
Today I found the site of the original tire manufacture in China. I found the exact size and p/n I now have on the tractor. I emailed them with a request for distributor info and asked if they would sell and ship directly to me. I had done this with some other manufactures and got no reply. They require the purchase of 20, 50 tires or a container full to sell. I’m going to keep my fingers crossed!!!
I am with you 1 inch should not be a big deal as long as 4 wheel is not used on a hard surface.
I didn’t read your text reply correctly, David, I have ag tires also for my tractor. I won’t use them on the lawn. when we get a reasonable amount of rain my lawn becomes a sponge. I wish I could find that size in a turf tire.
Have you checked with the Jinma dealers such as Affordable or Circle G?[quote quote=49444]Have you checked with the Jinma dealers such as Affordable or Circle G?
I usually buy parts from Circle G, I called them first and spent 2 days calling all dealers I could find to no avail. Very frustrating!
Thanks David for your reply. That might work since I’m not getting anywhere with the 26″ size. I thing the 1″ difference in the height of the tire will have a minimal effect. I only use 4 wd when needed so it might not be a big deal.
Well the problem has been solved!!! It was the worn tires that caused the whole problem. I have a friend who has a simular tractor who lives 150 miles away. When he asked if he could come up to visit us I asked if he could bring his front tires so I could try them on my tractor. Guess what piper you hit the nail on the head.
Thank You Everyone for all your help!
