I decided to take Sams advice and I ordered a set of the GT braces from Extreme. Holy crap, $26 to ship a couple of steel brackets is absurd!! It is what it is though.
For anyone that's interested in another source for V61 tires, I saw them on the Extreme site as well, although a bit more expensive than Miller.
Anyhow, Im going to wind up pulling the rear end on this thing. The one thing I havnt done yet is replace the hydro fluid and filter. The rear end is covered in crud from seepage somewhere. No drips at all but definitely some seepage. I suppose I should go ahead and reseal this thing and drill the return holes so I have a few questions.....
Ive never been in the rear end of a tractor before. Ive read through Sams threads and it looks pretty straightforward. Is it something I can do in a day though?
Anyone have parts numbers on hand for the seals and gaskets that need replaced in the rear end? Where is the best place to order those? I know Ive seen Sam post the numbers before but I cant find them now.
This may be a dumb question but how do I get the oil out of the cylinders, lines and pump?
This is a vented system, correct? So after I reseal it and replace the oil, there is no bleeding process to go through?
Thanks guys!
