Geez, I"m a little out of my element with an F-20. I know that
they have a "drop box", the housing that holds the bull gear and
associated bearings. There should be a bearing on either side of
the bull gear on the axle shaft. The bearings would be internal
and there will be a seal where the axle shaft comes out of the
housing. Now, I imagine that the wheel would have to come off.
Beyond that I"m just not sure how the F-20 was constructed. If
you"re lucky, there may be a flange that you can remove to get at
the seal. There should be some way to snug up the bearings as
well. Again, I imagine that it has opposing tapered roller
bearings, like a wagon wheel. What does you shop manual show?
What kind of manual is it? Some manuals don"t show some
things because they assume that you already know all that.
Thanks a lot, huh? If you jack up the tractor, does the wheel
have any up-and-down play? That will cause a seal to leak. Gotta
fix that before replacing the seal. I"m guessing that you can tell
that it"s not leaking from anywhere else around that area? I
believe that there is a gasket in between the cover and the drop
box housing. How big of a leak is it?
I don"t know if I"ve helped, but maybe this gives you a place to
start. Let me know what"s going on.

When Push Comes to Shove - by Dave Patterson. When I was a “kid” (still am to a deree) about two I guess, my parents couldn’t find me one day. They were horrified (we lived by the railroad), my mother thought the worst: "He’s been run over by a train, he’s gone forever!" Where did they find me? Perched up on the seat of the tractor. I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”. I’m par
