I have a T1600 HST which I like a fair bit, but when replacing the blades I noticed the bearing and both oil seals were totally shot on the shaft connected to the bevel case. This is part A on the parts diagram for the RC44LT Blade section (Kubota RC44LT(T16H) Parts Diagrams).

I had the bearing and snap ring replaced by the dealer, no trouble replacing the upper oil seal myself, but I just cannot get the blade boss (66091-61580) and the oil seal (09500-35528) to fit together. The diagram makes it seem like the oil seal should slide right over the blade boss, but in reality the blade boss is sloped where they are supposed to fit together. The dealer has no idea either. Any advice?

Thank you.
