J.D.1050 Transmission leak

Posted by PETER WHITMORE on January 04, 2004 at 04:02:35 from (205.232.79.57):

I have a 1988 John Deer model #1050 compact tractor with loader and Wood #70 backhoe attachment. I have had to replace the "Split Frame" transmission gasket twice because it was leaking. I was told by the local John Deer service people that this is a common problem when using a backhoe attachment on these split frame tractors.
Does anyone know how to:
a] Stop the trans leak without splitting the frame?
b] Would a subframe for the Woods backhoe help? As opposed to a 3-point hookup.
c] What manufacturer's offer Compact Tractors made in the last 10 years or so that do NOT have a split frame?

Thank You
