Ford 3400 Brake shaft repair

I have a Ford 3400 with a leaking brake shaft. I'm getting ready to change the seals and possibly the shaft.
My first question is, can this repair be done with the loader on the tractor? (The loader is a 730 Ford loader.) The measurement appears that there's room but I'm not sure if there's any unforeseen things that I don't know about.
My second question is, there appears to be more than one type of seal available. What have you Ford guys found to work the best?
 
Not sure about the loader, my 3600 doesn't have one. Just did this on my 3600 and discovered the shaft was back ordered by everybody.. Mine was worn and galled where the seals ride. I posted a thread on my ordeal when I was doing the repair.

My solution was speedy-Sleeves bought off eBay. If I can find the thread I will post a link.
 
Found the thread I posted when I fixed the cross shaft on my 3600.
