Hello I recently acquired a 57 case 411 row crop, tractor runs good drives good but I need to rebuild/replace the brakes. From what I can see the diff/carrier seals must be leaking into the brakes. My question is has any one replaced those seals before? I ve heard threw the grapevine originally there is two seals but they are old style leather type and to replace those with one new "modern" seal. If anyone could shed some light on part numbers,process etc.. Thank you!
 
Several years ago I did just that. it requires two seals per side
, As the old leather seals are not no longer available. you
need to pay particular attention as to what shape differential
shaft is. If that particular area on the shaft is corroded or ate
away. You may want to decide whether you want to build that
shaft area up or just polish it. As for the seals John
saeli@external_link.com can help you with the parts that
you need.My email is open feel free to call me if you wishCM

Go to this address and enter the original Case part number. It should give you the modern SKF
replacement seal. http://www2.chicago-rawhide.com/popup_parts_lookup_457012.htm
 
Its been about 15 years since I did that on my 1955 Case 411. I did seals and bearings and brake disks on both sides. I had no
experience at such things, so a manual was of utmost importance. You'll get it its a great way to get to know your tractor. BTW do
not misplace or forget to put all the shims that are behind the bearing carriers to set lash back in at reassembly. gobble
 
The leather seal is useless, waste of time and thankfully obsolete. We stock the modern seals in National, O rings, discs, anything else you might need, advice and time saving tips. e-mail is open, or 315-585-9826
