To date this forum has been remarkably useful for all of my Super C questions. But re: the fluids I need a bit more info and some clarifications. I'm dealing with 2 tractors, one with a probably broken axle and the 2nd I hope to not have that problem with. I want to change the pto, trans. and axle fluids. I am told the 3 are actually all one unit and use the same fluid - a 90 wt. I have a drain plug on the bottom of the axle and a small level check plug (I think it is) on the right rear of the axle housing. Do these drain and level check all three units? I have what appears to be a large fill plug (1&1/4) on the left deck side near the shift lever and a second identical plug on top of the pto unit. My 1st question is if the 3 units are all one, why 2 fill plugs? 2nd question: each of these 1&1/4 (fill) plugs is threaded on the sides, has a large round hole on top and is concave on the inside. Only about 2-3 threads show above the surface - appears they came this way. How does one get them out? Are there any other fill holes for pto/trans/axle? Also, anyone have a recommendation for a labor rate to pay for replacing a broken axle? Anyone know of a good book to buy that deals fully with specs. and repairs for the Super C, hopefully w/scematics, photos and directions for the beginner, and where to find it? Thanks, Ed
