Default Original rearend bleeding to death.

Had to spend a few days away from my new project (clean-up/repair/maint. of a 62' O). encountered a problem.

On page 24 of the parts manual that I have for the CCO the item indicated as number 4 (Carrier, Rear Axle LH); mine has a 1/2" hole in the very bottom of that cake-pan shaped portion (in what would be the 6 o'clock position), just outboard of the flange that bolts to the transmission case. Is this hole supposed to be there? In removing the rear wheels I raised the rear of the tractor about 3/4" to be able to get the wheels off, removed the wheels, lowered the rear of the tractor back to original ride height (resting on jack stands), came back the next day and there was a pool of whatever oil like product was in the rear end. It seems to have come out this hole, there were still a few drips exiting when I came back the next day. The back plate on the rearend has NOT be removed. Is there supposed to be a plug for this hole? The parts diagram didn't indicate any, it didn't even mention the hole. Help!

Sorry YS; I know I can get a bit wordy at times. I managed to get a photo with my iPhone & flashlight (power is out, gotta love a laptop & wireless web!). I've not been so good about getting the crude cleaned off yet. The shot was taken from the underside looking upwards at the hole.

Wild Bill: Thank you for the valuable information. I didn't see any "seals" indicated in the parts manual for the axles. They're just leather strips? Are they wrapped around the axle?


So, does the hole in the picture look familiar to anyone? Or, am I dealing with some rogue tractor here?

Wild Bill: You ROCK like Bach!!!! I had been looking at an entirely different page in the IPL. You saved me a great headache and several Excedrin. If you've still got the CR part number I'd appreciate it so I can head to my local NAPA, which is a whole lot of diesel fuel closer than my nearest CC dealer.

Thank you again.

DISREGARD request for CR part number; just reread your post. Thanks!

30W = 30 weight = SAE30. 10W30 is 10W30.

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.
