Hello,
I have a 1987 Ford 1520 that's developed a leak at the right wheel on the inside.
I have not pulled the wheel off to check on it I am hoping it could be a seal.
Does anyone know if there is a wheel seal in there?
I have a front-end loader that I installed and it has not been abused but the loader does put a lot of weight on the axle and I am concerned about that.
Thank you
John Walker

Possibly related, I replaced both bad tie rod ends (your #42 on diagram) on my NH1920 because I noticed a lot of 'play' translated to the arms on top of the wheel assemblies of the front axle. The oil leak that I was having from the wheel assembly has almost stopped since replacing the tie rod ends.

Thank you for the parts diagram!
