Hello-
Looking for some help from someone that has successfully replaced the rear main crankshaft felt seals on a Farmall 300 that could explain to me how to do it? Have never done one before. I currently have my 300 split apart right now to work on the TA and clutches with the flywheel removed. I suspect the rear main seal is leaking. Tractor would leak from belly whenever I parked it, oil looked black in color like engine oil, not red like the hy-tran oil. Inside of bell housing looked wet. Would like to replace while I have the flywheel off and everything apart.
How hard is it to replace the seal? I have heard that some leak even after replacement? Really don't want to split the tractor twice! Want to do it right the first time. Is there a kit available with all the gaskets and felt seals? Any help would be great. Thanks in advance!
