WC right rear wheel leaking oil

WC-Z · May 7, 2010

Hello all!

YT newbie here. Hopefully you can help... I have a 1937 Allis Chalmers WC leaking (much) oil from the final drive at the right rear wheel. Not sure where to start assessing the problem. Has anybody else seen this, and is there a fix in 2010? Thanks. -Zach

Very common on those older tractors. There is a hub seal that originally was cork, now comes in rubber/plastic like material. Costs about $35. Info and diagrams in I&T AC 11 manual. Seal is about 10 inches in diameter, inch thick. Original part # U-2533.

Thanks! Do you know who may supply this?

you will have to get it from AGCO, get ready, I heard the seal is closer to $55 now!

If you decide to do both at the same time, make sure you don't get the hubs mixed up. There is a left and right. Dave.

If the tractor sits outside it may just have water in the final drive. There is a hole that allows water in and when it gets full, it also allows oil to leak out. Bob

What DM means about not mixing the hubs...there is an angular line inscribed (several turns) around the outer circumference, so when the tractor is driving forward, it can help bring any leaked oil back into the housing. If hubs are reversed, the line moves the oil OUT. Curious what the design engineer calls that line....? Same result as moving the lathe carriage back without backing off the cutting tool.
