How do they get their lubrication? From the transmission?

Thanks, that what I was told but I thought I'd ask you guys. I've got a leak at the back of the engine somewhere, and I thought maybe it was the Sherman. It's probably the rear main seal. And yea, its all painted. It wasn't leaking till I started taking it on all day tractor rides. It sat for more than two years so maybe it dried out.

The Sherman auxiliary transmissions are designed to be lubed from the main transmission.

They must be filled with oil upon installation to avoid running dry initially as the oil exchange system cannot fill the transmission in a short time.

Mostly not from the transmission..... Initally, at installation, they must be filled as they cannot exchange significant quantities of fluid with the transmission.. After that, I am not sure... My understanding is that they do still exchange some fluid.. Jim

there is a little "fan" that sucks oil into the sherman, unless it was removed. very small
