Hello All
I would like to check the fluid condition and level for the trans and axle. Everything works and I don't hear any strange noises, but since my tractor is a bit of a Franken-Fergy, I don't know if the dipstick in the axle is correct or bent or...?
I read in these forums that I could remove the lower bolt on the axle tube and the oil should be at that level, so my questions:
1. If the tractor is warmed up and parked on a level surface, will oil at the bolt hole indicate an acceptable level for all 3 chambers?
2. I think I should look inside (never have); can I pull the shifter cover and the cover under the seat without small bits flying out or dropping into the works?
Thanks to all for your help here and in the past.
