I just drained the tranny/diff on my new SMTA. There was a pretty fair amount of metal granules in the fluid. So I went fishing in the rear outlet with a telescoping magnet. Well I found 6 pieces of what looks like a ball bearing race. Balls would be about 5/16 inch diameter, and the cage maybe 2 1/2 inches?. Magnet also came out looking like a porcupine. No sign of the balls. What bearing has disintegrated? I do have all gears and reverse. But, when braking the left rear wheel/axle seems to stutter or wobble a little. Can I fix anything by removing the PTO unit, or do I get to pull the tranny cover? How many hours to get that top plate off? Gordo
