Hi Gents Thanks for the info, I will get up under the tractor this weekly hopefully. A few additional questions... 1. You guys mentioned that the transmission and the final drives are separated. So leakage that I am seeing from the seed plate drive is coming from the final drives and from what I am hearing, there is actually no "correct" level for the final drive oil. Is that correct? 2. I'll check the oil consistency by the drain plug for water, but just wanted to check where the water could come from. The tractor hasn't spent a day outdoors in the rain in 10 years (and I changed the transmission oil 5 years ago) so I am just wondering if the water could come from other sources?
As for working up the courage to take things apart, point very well taken. In the States, I could get away with avoiding complex issues since I had a lot of tractor mechanic friends around but out here, I am on my own (besides this forum), so it is forcing me to get more adventurous in learning how to do things myself, which is definitley a good thing anyway.
