[AT] Cub - Update

[Jim Becker]

So all you have to do is spin the steering wheel at a couple thousand RPM 
for a few minutes and you'll be ready to go? :)

It is used on Hesston Rotary mower conditioners with some pretty high
dollar bearings in them, so I would think that it lubricates when hot.
I have put it in a RT913 Roadranger that leaked at the PTO and it
stopped leaking.  It has to run a few minutes when cold to shift easily,
but otherwise I have had no problems...
