Greetings,
New to the forum and I've been reading through some posts and see some good info going on.

I've had my 51 TE20 for approx 15 years and lately it's been sitting awaiting maintenance. It's still running fine when the battery's charged but I've got a nagging slow leak that I need to fix. Years ago when trying to remove one of the 3 point hitch arms I spun the pin what secures it into the rearend housing trying to break the nut loose. Well it's leaked ever since and I've about decided to split the rear and fix it. Anyone have any experience doing this? I've asked around some tractor shops and all say good luck...
I'm guess'n I'll be needing it ;^)

Yes I have done this and it's some labour but not rocket science. You just need to remove the trumpet from the one side that leaks.
You don't need to take the brakes apart. There are 6 nuts on the inside of the outer end of the trumpet. Once you undo those the axle with brakes (including the drum ) will come off as an assembly. Watch your toes; it's heavy. Keep the shims.
Then undo the 11 bolts that hold the trumpet to the differential case. Keep the gasket; its thickness sets the end float of the axle, and you can't get them anymore. (It's 0.010" thick - you can get them for the later rear ends with 15 holes but the overall diameter is different so no joy there.) Then you will see the nut that holds the pin in place. I think it might be a good idea to put a bit of sealant on the tapered part of the pin while you're at it.

Thanks Jim, I've been holding off on doing this but the TE20's services aren't needed at this time and I'm tired of emptying the large drip pan all the time. The motors in great shape and everything works so I'm thinking on cleaning it up abit, maybe even a new coat of grey paint but it'll need some sand blasting 1st...
