Well darn, the leak is back...I am wondering if somehow I knicked the oring putting it in or if the o-ring from the hardware store was not up to standards to deal with the heat and hytran......hmmmm

Just curious...did you get this resolved. I now have this happening on my 682 and I was hoping to slip in a new o-ring from the front like you did. I was also planning on just a hardware store o-ring, but maybe I need to seek out one of a better grade that is meant for auto/hydraulic use.

I just did this job on my 125. I just went to ace hardware and got an oring off the shelf. I may still have the package it came in out in the shop and it says the size it was.

I had the same problem with removing the brake puck on my 1650 with the same leak. I used a rotary drill wire brush that would fit into the brake puck hole in the transmission housing to get most of the scale out, then manually used steel wool to try to get down closer to the puck edge, along with plenty of WD40 as a flushing agent.
To get the puck to pull out was a challenge, like mentioned above, but I had a pair of external flat blade snap ring pliers that I could fit into the bore where the plunger from the linkage fit. With a little patience (which I generally don't have a lot of), more WD40, and working the puck back and forth with the pliers, it finally came out.

I was also concerned prior to the repair, due to the age of the tractor, that I might find the friction material button to be worn down, so I ordered one of those as well. After getting the puck out and replacing the friction button, I could have saved the cost. It really wasn't that worn.

I will also warn folks who may be doing this for the first time, there is a loose ball bearing in the center of the puck bore where the plunger fits. Keep an eye out for it as it can easily fall out when removing the puck.

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.
