My ser 2 17 is leaking out of the holes under the brakes. This tractor set for years and now with little use the last 4 years it has started to leak. I overhauled the motor along with clutch, seals, brakes and bearings in the final drive. i guess after sitting and being old it decided to leak after some use. i have an IT manuel and would like to know how big a job this is. I'll eventually tackle it when i have the time. Just don't like oil leaks. THX, Jim

Probably the seals in the diff bearing carriers are leaking. Youll have to take the brake out and pull the axle. The axle shaft goes thru the carrier seals. Only take one side out at a time so the differential doesnt fall out of place.
