532 fill plug identification?

Jim 777 · Jun 24, 2015

I have attached a picture of a plugs 1 half inch 1-3/8 and one quarter inch on the 532 that I would like to identify and more importantly a vent hole or breather that is leaking oil out and probably water in at the end of the pen you will see it.
Thanks.

Those plugs are in the hydraulic/rear axle center section. The transmission plugs should be towards the front of the transmission, somewhere near where the steering sector arms are, most likely on the right side.

From the posts in your other thread, that square headed plug at the top of your first picture is your level check hole, so the place where your pen is pointing that is leaking oil is not a vent, as that is below the oil level. It looks to me like it is a screw that should connect to a bracket on the inside that holds one of the tubes in place and if someone loosened that screw by mistake the bracket inside probably shifted out of position so that it no longer lines up with the hole in the case and the screw can't be tightened, and if it's not tight it will leak. You will need to open the round inspection cover on the opposite side and stick your hand in there to hold the bracket so that it lines up with the hole while a helper gets the screw started. Then once it's tightened down it shouldn't leak any longer.

Sorry I can't help with what those other two square headed plugs are.

I wasable to find the drain hole in the bottom of the transmission and cleared it.also found the mushroom looking thing beside the shifters was a transmission dipstick.I was able to tighting leaking screw up and it stopped the leak. Glad I didn't take the screw out! hydraulic oil was about 6 gallons too low.
thanks to all!
