560 Brake seals

Bill in IL · Jan 17, 2013

Working on the brakes on my 560. The right side has oil inside the drum. Looks to be leaking from around the pinion shaft. I can"t see in there well cause I have not cleaned it up and room is tight.

Can that seal be replaced from the outside? How does the inner brake surface come off the transmission housing? That sure would make it easier to see whats going on. Anyone happen to know the part number for the seal. I cant seem to locate that one in the online parts books.

That plate just prys out and you replace seal from other side.
Seal #357037R91 0-ring #254693R1 which has been changed to case number 70923601. Parts are shown with the rear frame and driving members differential section. You will see the brake shaft bearing and that shaft can be just pulled to inspect that bearing also.

Thanks now that you pointed it out for me I found it. Doesn't look like too bad of a job either.
