43 B axle seals

JRSutton · Oct 24, 2013

Since we need to replace the final drive gear in the B, I'm taking the opportunity to replace all the axle seals - inner and outer.

Would anybody happen to have the part numbers for the all the seals needed?

I'm guessing the old felt seal part numbers aren't going to be of any use to me.

It's a 43 so it uses the dust cap and seal holder cup thing - that are held into the axle housing with 4 screws.

I can break out the calipers and start measuring and shop by size, but kind of a pain - if somebody had the info handy it'd be greatly appreciated.

Ok - I understand now that it's a rubber seal used internally - and a felt dust protector on the outer end.

so, still looking for info on the inner seal.

There's a reason I'm trying to avoid going to JD for the seals. One of the 4h kid's dad can get us a great discount on seals and bearings, but I need to give him useable part numbers - not JD numbers.

So if somebody's got a number for the inner seals that would be great.

The seal is p/n AB1326R. It's about $28 from Deere. I think the NAPA p/n is 23710.

If the link works you can see the seal dimensions. If not go to jdparts.com and enter the seal #.
