Diffy housing change by self

[mffarmall]

I have to change out the diffy housing on my MF-50 56. I have a general idea and IT book to help. But see this string for updates on my rebuild process. OR my death note from being crushed by a falling tractor.

Sounds like a good challenge mf. Take lots of pictures. We'll certainly enjoy them and they may prove useful to get the parts back together where they belong /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Why are you doing this? (other than providing entertainment to us) /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

The housing had been welded after if cracked years ago and the welding finally failed. So I had to buy a new housing.

Steps

Drain diffy
block up
tricycle, so support frontend
take of top hydrolic unit and seat
rebuild new hydrolic unit
take off axles
take off housing
rebuild new housing
put back together
estimated time 8 hrs
actual time 4 days probably.
