Thank you I saw this install guide as well. I will probably replace the rear glass as well and maybe even get a cab for it. I plan to paint this winter like I did with my Yanmar YM-146 this spring Painting YM-146 Clearcoat or no clearcoat any advice

Thank you good advice I also need a suction cup install tool which I just ordered. That will be the trick I bet since I will be able to hold the glass with one hand and use a tool to hold the rubber seal up so the glass slides in easily.

I have a bobcat 853. I am trying to install the to window for the cab so far it has been next to impossible. The seal has to stay in place I taped it on the from side since that is the only place you can wrap the tape around. Now trying to install the window into the grove and the glass will now...

The compound is very expensive $36 I was shocked

I figured it out. I had the chain box overfilled and it was leaking. I also used a shaft to bearing seal called FAS LOK 80 that I got at the bearing shop. Lesson learned about overfilling chainbox for me.

Now I see what you are saying. The red lube was used to lubricated the shaft to slip into the bearing.

I think you are correct I just came inside looking at the bearing I thought the bearings were supposed to be sealed but oil is leaking between the seals from both sides of the bearing now I am at a lose of what to do.

I didn't put any grease in the sealed bearing I never do. It never made sense to me to force grease in a sealed bearing

Here are pics of all the parts and the position of the leak. I wont have room to place a bearing seal that I can see so I will need another option either sleeve or some sort of silicon like seal put between the shaft and the bearing what do you think?

Thanks for the advice I may try that. I am draining oil now and will post another pic of the chain box and the bearing so everyone can see where the leak is coming from.

Yes I agree the shaft is probably worn. I am wondering if something like this will work https://www.dansdiscounttools.com/product/skf-11611-oil-seal-30-mm-x-42-mm-x-7-mm-crw1-v/ Maybe I can slide this oil seal on. You are correct about using oil after some research grease wont do the job and...

I am thinking I should put grease inside the sprockets and chain housing to lube it so it wouldn't leak. unless someone else has a better idea

Yes 80w90w gear oil is what the manual calls for. But it is leaking bad so I have to do something else. I am wondering if pack it with grease around the chain and sprockets it would work, my only concern is the chain tensioner. It is metal to metal.

Manual called for a 80w90w oil unless in very hot conditions then a 130w. The part that is leaking is the It is not in the gearbox rathar in the chain drive gear box. The leak looks to be coming from between parts 27 and 30 in the diagram above. I am wondering if gear lube in this area would...

No is that a thicker grease? I am wondering if the shaft has worn slightly and the grease is flowing bewtween the shaft and the inner bearing.
