Just helped a friend rebuild the final drives on his B, very similar. I reused the felts, soak them in mineral spirits and use a round bar like a rolling pin to squeeze the oily liquid out and let them dry. If you like new, go to a Case dealer. You can order online from Carter and Gruenwald. The bearings I got from McMaster Carr online. I only replaced the inner and outer axle bearings. $20 apiece for the outer and $11 for the inner one. Compare to $46 for the outer at the dealer. Most people don't know that most of the bearings on the old IH tractors are standard metric sizes (mm) and readily available. The outer axle bearing is 50 x 90 x 20, the inner is 35 x 72 x 17 The ones I got from McMaster are INA brand, good stuff. You can get the oil seals at your dealer but beware, if the groove that's worn into the sealing surface of the axle is too deep and line's up with the lip of the new seal it will still leak. If you have access to a lathe, turn down the OD of the axle shaft in the sealing area to the next available seal size. I use a local bearing supplier for these seals. Hope this helps.

How can I explain the sensation and exhilaration I feel when I turn the key and hear the engine come to life (most
