OK I've got the tractor split, the drive shaft is off, flange is pulled. I can't get the key out, any ideas on how to do this without damaging anything? I need to get the key out so I can replace the bearing

The seal in there was the original one (spring loade leather in a metal case). The new one from the IH dealer is thinner and has metal on only one side. I noticed that when the flange came off the seal came with it. The old one and the new one can be hand pressed in to the retainer and popped out as well. Is this normal?

It seems to me that oil could leak out between th seal and the retainer because the metal on metal is not tight enough. Could I seal this by putting a bead of RTV on the inside of the retainer before pressing in the new seal?

Thanks,
Jim
