Josh,

Your Cub may not need as much work as you think. It, no doubt still has the original seals which were marginal at best... they were designed to contain splashing lube. Your problem is that your trasnmission is grossly overfilled. Its' total capacity is less than you think it leaked... 3 1/2 PTS!! There is a plug to check the level low on the left side about even with the shifter. Remove the plug and allow the extra to drain out.

Your problem now may be an oil saturated brake band. To fix the brake problem it will be necessary to remove the final drive... and you might as well replace the seal (PN 385872R91,or CR 10681, or Nat 480049SSR)while you have access.
