550 PTO

I replace my pto seal prior to hay season. Didn't leak and I thought my problems were solved. Used the tractor on the rake for quite a few acres (+/- 40) Now the Pto is leaking yet again. I didn't feel or see any issue with the shaft when I replaced the seal. What is the fix?

The PTO will leak in 2 places the out side seal on the rear casting.
Or
There is an O ring on the main shaft that runs to the clutches.
When this one leaks the fluid comes out where the PTO pig sticks out.
You have to remove a spring steal pin and replace it only with that type of roll pin when you do.
Look at the parts breakdown
