Got a rear axle seal leak on right/driver side. Sooooo gotta another job to do and sometimes its just better to do full service when such a large job is underway.

So while in there.... what else should I be prepared to service???. rather badly wore out or not???

Messick's didn't see anything more than I did so ordered the gasket, oil seal, and the one bearing in that area too just in case need it. About 75 bucks

Coach - -

If my memory serves, someone here did a great job documenting w/ photos a rear axle job (or at least in that area of the tractor)....maybe 2 or 3 years ago.

Don't recall who or the tractor model, but I throw it out if it can help give you a reference... if they see this, maybe they'll give a shout...

PS - Remembered later it was Daren, and he did a great job with the pics.....

Not sure if similar, but what the heck...
