Hello, I have a 3320 Compact Tractor and the rear axle seal is leaking. I ordered the parts and are on the way to me. I am looking for someone who has done this before. If I take the four bolts out at the end, will the axle just come out? Is there a snap ring that hold it in, and I need to take the transmission casing apart? I have been looking for information or videos online, but I can not find anything. Has anyone replaced the seal before? Can anyone help me out. Thanks Scott

sadly it's just not quite that easy!
I have a PDF of the technical manual you're welcome to, shoot me your email if wanted.
You have a good bit of reading to do before tackling this job
these are just two quick pics from the manual about what all is in the way and the case you must remove to get the axle out -

It looks like his leak will either be the seal or the o-rings on the inside of the seal bushing. By the looks of the picture, it would be worth the try taking out the 4 bolts, sliding it out of the gear/bearing that are on the deep end. The snap ring should get the parts off the shaft.
I got the gasket for the end cap, the axle seal, and the o rings ordered. It looks like i have my work cut out for me. Thanks for the reply, I will read through the pdf file and see what it says and hopefully it is not as difficult as it sounds. Thanks, I will let you know how it goes

I would love to see a copy of the pdf file. It looks like i have my work cut out for me. My email is: Saenneking@covenantretirement.org
I sent it in a personal message but don't know if it sent correctly. Thanks for your help, I am looking forward to seeing what I am getting myself into.
