I purchased a 135 diesel last fall from an auction. The rear brakes and seals were supposed to have been reworked acording to the previous owner. The local shop that did the work aknowledged that he did do the work. The right brake never did work very well and today I finally pulled the drum to find the shoe soaked in oil. The shoe was new as expected but the inner brake area has/had been oil soaked. I cleaned up the area and was wondering if the sealcould have leaked due to too much oil in the tractor? The dipstick is right at the full mark. I currently have the tractor leaning while sitting on a jackstand to allow oil to go to that side and am monitoring for any oil seapage. I have new shoes coming from this sponsor site to replace. I was wondering if I do not see any more seapage I could be good or should I go ahead and pull the axel and replace the inner and outer seals. If so does anyone have the mf part numbers for the seals, gasket and heat shrink axle collar. Thanks for any words.
