Do a search for brake drum oil seals & you will find many suggestions. My suggestion: It is not easy to remove the old seal but patience will help. Do not try to remove the cast iron seal retainer; it will break unless the bull gear is removed first. Be sure to get all the old seal removed; it is about 3/4" thick & has an outer liner holding everything together. Replace with 2 (two) new style seals and put some chassis grease in between them for long term lubrication protection. Use steel wool to clean the brake drum sealing surface making sure all scratches are removed. Lube the brake shoe pivot bushing before you slide the new linings in place. To adjust the set screw on the bottom of the brake cover, apply the brake firmly locking it in place. Now loosen the lock nut and turn the set screw in until snug; back out 1/2 turn and relock the nut. Repeat for the other side and adjust the pedals for equal braking effort so when the pedals are locked together the tractor stops without pulling to one side.
