Hi folks
So the new issue I am facing is that I believe I damaged my seed plate drive when I was bush-hogging which is creating some oil leakage and I wanted to get some ideas on the following questions.
1. Is this a serious issue or not with regards to leaking?
2. Should I be worried about operating the tractor like this before it is fixed?
3. How do I fix this and what will I need to fix this (both replacement parts and tools).
So below I have posted a video showing just how loose the seed plate drive is, which is very loose. However, I initially noticed the oil leakage when I was mounting an implement but I went back a few days later and there was no additional leakage, so it seems the leakage isn't major, at least yet or maybe only when moving?
The second video is when I checked the transmission oil level (please confirm I am checking the correct plug) and when I removed the plug you can see oil still comes out, so it would appear I still have the right level of transmission oil still inside.
