JD 955 Top Shaft Seal leak....

[fsr2007]

I've got a bad leak at the top shaft seal. I believe it is called the top shaft seal. It is the seal that goes around the shaft that connects to the "driveline" to the engine's flywheel. Can I disassemble the two bolts that hold the U-joints together and pull out the driveshaft or do I have to move a major component?

Thanks!

You will need to remove the bolts from the front of driveshaft(#3). Then you should be able to slide shaft forward enough to get off of splines.

I will give it a try and let you know.


Thanks!
