After months I am putting it back together. Need help with what is probably a very simple problem. I put the cover over the back, had removed it when I fixed the brakes and also when I hosed it out with diesel. When gear lube was added --it leaked at the bottom. Took it off and replaced the gasket (carefully) and it still leaked. Should I use a thicker gasket or what??? The gasket material I used was 1/32 in. Thanks for any ideas. I too send John T my prayers for his son and for his whole family. God Bless. Joe M

Joe, you didn't give a tractor year but if you are working with the tin cover you will probably have to set the cover edge over the end of a 5/8" round rod & pound the cover deformation out of the hole area. The bolts tend to distort the cover around the bolt holes & the thicker the gasket or the tighter the bolts are tightened the more it will leak. It also doesn't hurt to use a good quality gasket sealer on the gasket..

Hi Joe,
Going to ask a simple question myself here being as you did not mention it in your post. What type of gasket sealer did you use??
Have you checked the mating surfaces in the area of the leak for a warped rear cover or maybe a groove or rough spot on the trans. houseing??
Those would be the only things I could think of? Its not leaking any around any of the bolts through the holes is it??? Something I'll have to keep an eye out when I put my H back together as well. Holler at me sometime,
Gary
