I decided to fix this before became a problem after all assembled . It wasn't leaking yet , but I know Murphy would show up after final assembly and the cab is on like he did when I built cab for Frankie .
Leaving the bottom wheel on makes a great work stand . I would not recommend doing this horizontal.
getting ready to open motor barrel
Note the rust creeping in for outside where the seal rides
seal still good , but cap needs cleaning too
Note the white dot , next to cleanliness , correct alignment will make sure the motor turn the correct direction
Barrel off, most of the motor left alone . I use a pin to keep everything in line .
Too be continued

Re: Drive motor body leaks
Dave, that looks great! If you were to get new seals, where from? Also, where did you get the right colour spray paint?

Re: Drive motor body leaks
Good time for a little PM I will have to remember that one
So the seals were still soft and pliable, at their age?

Re: Drive motor body leaks
That I am not sure .They are not a standard O ring . They are a square ring with bevelled shoulders on the outside only .
I beleave there is a seal kit available though the Case parts suppliers that has all the seals . All of mine are Ross (TRW) . I found and cleaned off the tag . I am going to take a pic. of it and runn it and see what comes up .

Re: Drive motor body leaks
Ya just have to clean the rust off and make sure the seal and barrel ends are lubed on re-assembly .
