Default Another hydro leak on the 1450

I saw oil on the floor yesterday. I pulled the tunnel cover and the top of the hydro was dry. I cleaned the hydro. When I parked the 1450, I placed white oil absorbent pads under her. This morning I have what to me is a lot of oil on the pads. When I wiped my hand across the bottom of the hydro, I had oil. Where would the hydro be leaking when she just sitting? I haven't used her in 2 weeks. Need to get her ready for snow plowing.
Thanks

Sounds like cork gasket or trunion seals. Possibly the pickup tube as well.

By cork gasket, I assume you mean part # 26 on the diagram. The red light shows where I think the oil is coming from.

Nope, the cork gasket goes between the pump and the trans case. #23 in this pic

Haven't been able to check the tractor until this morning. I have oil on the floor again from where I thought. Thanks Sam for the info on the gasket. Any one tell me how hard this repair will be? Do I need to separate the tractor?
Thanks

Sorry I didnt see your reply. It is much easier to pull the rearend out I just did this on my 1450 a couple Mont back a bit of advice is to pressure wash the rearend before you pull the pump off. I do believe there is a writeup on here that can walk you through it. Its only held on with 4 bolts

I've replaced that gasket without splitting the tractor. Remove the tunnel cover and the fenders, and you'll have access.

Check out the end cap #29 as well. My 1450 leaked around this end cap because there was a small leak around the edge from rust. I also change the hydro gasket but a few days later the leak started again. It was hard to tell at first.

I believe my 149 is leaking from the end cap #29. How did you fix the problem?

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.
