I finally started this brake job that I mentioned a couple weeks ago. The reason I started this to begin with is because the brakes squeak so bad I was sure the linings were gone. Got through the left side OK. I found the lining to be fine, just glazed. So I sanded it, put in the differential side seal an put it back together. The old seal was really OK also, not leaking any liquid oil. My question is on the right side which I have not started. On the SA, the right side has an axle housing extension. I originally thought the seal was going to be out at the end of the extension. But thinking through this, it's probably going to be in on the side of the differential meaning the axle extension must be removed to get at it. Well, supporting the tractor safely to remove this extension is way more than I'm comfortable with. My thought now is that I'm wasting my time going into this right side at all. The brake lining will probably be OK like the left was (lots of squeaking is normal). There is no evidence of the right diff seal leaking, and even if it did, it's unlikely that oil would make it's way out to the right brake. Whadayathink? David
