I have ordered the brake actuator rod seals for my 4500 rear housing . I dont believe the brakes were ever adjusted because the adjustment was screwed all the way to the bottom of the threads and not holding at all on the right brake and just a little on the left. My question is when my seals come and I get it all back together how do I adjust the brake rod ? Im sure the pedal needs a certain amount of free travel before engaging. Also I saw a post that said the seal is just more or less a splash seal. That is not correct , if the 4500 is filled to the fill plug for the rear end there will be at least an inch of fluid above the seal, mine was sitting level and over 2 gal came out when I removed the seal. I had the fill level plug out so it was not over filled .
