GT3100 Hydro question (Bleeding system) after rearend repair.
GT 3100 with only 220 hours, I will explain what brings me to this question... last week was mowing was going up a grade ran over a tree root and the tractor quit moving and had no brakes. While running pressing the direction levers the brake drum would turn. I fearing the four bolts holding the differential together failed. Removed trans-axle and found that the right side hub was turning freely on the axle shaft. Removed hub (with puller) and found the splines were toast on both the axle and the hub. Considered welding the hub to the axle since it was shot anyway but decided to replace, so this meant tearing the entire rear-end apart including removing hydro from rear-end. Ordered new axle, hub, axle seal, o-ring for hydro, new o-rings for hydro lines. Will complete with new filter and the Cub Cadet synthetic gold infused hydro oil...
Now my question will I have to bleed the system when I complete the repair? Or will any trapped air work itself out?

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
