Cub 108 has rear axle oil leak
Last night, I removed the brake assembly from the right side of the axle where it is leaking. I cleaned up the area but, somehow, I cannot see the "C" type snap ring.
Is the snap ring toward the brake disk end in the "bowl" shaped indentation?
Should the snap ring be obvious or is it closely integrated into the axle assembly?
Maybe it is missing. If so, should it be easy to slide the axle out of the housing?
I will take your advice about replacing both oil seals. I haven’t taken the left hand side brake assembly off yet. Maybe I will be able to see the snap ring on that side.
Also, I tried to move the axle flange up and down as Tim suggested and there is very limited movement. So, based on that, I think that the bearings are OK.
Thanks for your help!
