Need advice----I am going to replace/check brakes on my 140. When I unbolt the left side axel housing (Short axel side) will the axel come off with the housing? If it does, is it hard to get back in? NEXT---Can I just unbolt the right side axel housing (long axel side) from the housing that connects the differential to the axel housing and leave the long axel still sticking into the differential? The book indicates that I should unbolt the right side from the differential housing and then separate the removed asembly to get to the brake drum. I hope I have correctly explained this enough. Thanks, Fred.

National seal numbers:

Final drive seal-- 410083, IH 71597 C91
Differential seal--- 410060 SSR, IH 288864 R93
Pinion cover gasket --- IH 1342398C1

I think these same seals fit A though 140.

I ordered IH288864R93 2 times and they keep sending me National 410083. What is the correct PN for the seal that goes on the transmission housing( have to take 3 bolts off to get to it,)

Fred: You already have good advice on proceedure. One of the nicest way to handle those final drives is a pallet jack and some 6x6 blocks. Put short blocks on each side under final drive casting. Put blocking from side to side under axle hub. Then just go around forks and axle with a light chain and tightening bind. You can then roll it where you want and the jack is great for putting it all back in place. Same splitting a tractor, put a good hardwood pallet under front of tractor block it and tie down to pallet with tis down straps. I have done 6 cylinder diesels by myself. When you use pallets then jack is not tied up, with part sitting on it.

I just went through this with one of my Shop Mules, which are made from an A. The A will be very similar to the 140. Dave is giving you good info. The pinion shafts that come out of the final drives are splined on the differential end and slide out when you remove the final drives. I had no difficulty getting them back in, but on the shop mule, both sides are short shafts. You will likely find grease and oil on the brake bands. While you are in there, replace the seals at both the transmission side and the final drive side. Replacing the seals is easy while you have the stuff apart. I had lots of "fun" because on the shop mules, the final drives are rotated forward and close to the transmission housing making it near impossible to get two of the bolts that attache the final drive to the transmission. Should be easier on the 140, as those two bolts would be on the bottom and easier to reach. I got my seals from IH, but they have National numbers on them which I wrote down, but I left that out in the barn. With those numbers you should be able to get the seals at NAPA or Motion Industies and save some money over the IH price. I'll try to remember to get those numbers and post back tomorrow. If you are going to replace the final drive seal, you will need a new gasket for the cover on the outside held on by 4 bolts. Also you will need a puller to remove the brake drum. Once be brake drum is off, remove that cover and the pinion gear, bearing and shaft are easily driven out with a block of wood. Then it's real easy to drive out the old seal and install the new one. And as a final note, be sure to not overfill your transmission with oil. Only fill up to the level plug on the LH side at the front. That's just high enough to wet the bearings with oil and avoids pressure on the seals. That was the problem with mine. The transmission was overfilled by about twice the amount of oil and of course it leaked past the seals onto the brakes. Even the final drives on mine were way over full. Do only one side at a time and make sure you block up the tractor very securely so it does not fall. 6 X 6 timbers work good for that. If transmission oil level is proper, you don't need to drain the transmission as when the side you are working is tilted up, it's enough to keep any oil from coming out. The wheels and final drives are heavy too. You'll need some lifting equipment to support the final drives. Don't try man handling them unless you have plenty of help.

Assuming it's the same as a Super A. The axel will come out with the final drive. The brake drum is on the axel. A key way and a set screw hold the drum on. Same on both sides 'cept the rt side is longer. Left side goes back in very easy. Right side takes some holding of the heavy final drive, a balancing act, hold your toung right, but will go in fairly easy. While your in there might as well replace the seal that goes aroung the Differential case. Most leak on the left side putting gear oil from the diff case onto the brake. Rt side ca also be replaced but will require removal of the axel housing.
