I'm slowly but surely getting the leaks fixed on this tractor.....Has anyone replaced the orings on a B7300 pivot on the front axle. I tightened the pivot bolt per the owners manual instructions hoping that might help and the leak slowed down but is still leaking. I've replaced the UDT in the axle with 80/90 weight gear oil but still there are drips.

Thank to all that have replied to my other posts concerning this Machine. It will be a work in progress for a little while longer.

I know someone here has had to replace the o-rings on their tractors axle pivot. Does anyone have any wisdom they would care to share?

It's not too bad of a job, lift and support the front end, drop the bolts and the shield for the propeller shaft.

Replace the front and rear thrust collars while your in there as the O-ring seals to those.
