To date this forum has been remarkably useful for all of my Super C questions. But re: the fluids I need a bit more info and some clarifications. I'm dealing with 2 tractors, one with a probably broken axle and the 2nd I hope to not have that problem with. I want to change the pto, trans. and axle fluids. I am told the 3 are actually all one unit and use the same fluid - a 90 wt.

I have a drain plug on the bottom of the axle and a small level check plug (I think it is) on the right rear of the axle housing. Do these drain and level check all three units?

I have what appears to be a large fill plug (1&1/4) on the left deck
side near the shift lever and a second identical plug on top of the pto unit. My 1st question is if the 3 units are all one, why 2 fill plugs?

2nd question: each of these 1&1/4 (fill) plugs is threaded on the sides, has a large round hole on top and is concave on the inside. Only about 2-3 threads show above the surface - appears they came this way. How does one get them out? Are there any other fill holes for pto/trans/axle? Also, anyone have a recommendation for a labor rate to pay for replacing a broken axle? Anyone know of a good book to buy that deals fully with specs. and repairs for the Super C, hopefully w/scematics, photos and directions for the beginner, and where to find it? Thanks, Ed

The transmission PTO and differential share the same fluid. If you have a belt pully drive it has its own supply. The fill plug is the large plug in the deck. The "round" hole in the top used to be a Square hole that would take a 1/2" drive rachet or breakover bar. The axel housings are supposed to be dry with the inner bearing lubricated by the oil in the differential and the outer bearing lubed by the grease zert. The seals on the inner bearing leak oil into the axel carrier and out the outer seal. Takes 5 gallons to fill it up 90W gear lube. If the plugs have eroded to the point that the holes are round you may have to drill a hole and use an ease out to get them out.

achodges - Thanks for your help. I have a few clarification questions if you have the time. I have 2 Super C's, 1953 I believe. One has had a hard working life and the other looks like its lived the life of a country gentleman. However of the 4 plugs I am believing are filler plugs, all are identical. Each tractor has one at the 10 o'clock position by the shift lever base and one on top of the side pulley unit. Both have side pulleys. However all 4 plugs are identically rounded and concave on their hole bottoms. So similar, in fact, that it appears they were produced that way. There is no breakage at the edges or walls and the bottoms are all 4 smooth. Absolutely no signs of any breakage or use wear, and I'm looking very hard trying to find that on any of them. Not that they couldn't somehow have all turned out so perfect from breakage and wear but what a coincidence that would be. If these are the correct fill holes I am thinking of having something I can get a wrench on welded to their tops so I can turn them out and replace them. What's your thought on that approach?

It is correct, then, that the deck plug takes the 90 for the pto, differential and transmission and the plug on the side pulley services that unit only? 90 also?

I really appreciate all you folks who are so helpful here and the time you are taking to help.

Thanks
