Yanmar Tractor Four Wheel Drive Hub Leak Fix 

The seals lasted a while but have started leaking again. When I go in it again I will have to investigate further to see why they did not last longer. I was expecting them to last for a several years . I'm a bit disappointed. Hope yours holds up better for you.

@@G220life good man for responding so quick, really appreciate it. When we pool all of our knowledge and experience we're able to pretty much have it made. Talking with an old timer he explained these older yanmars/Deere models were built with entirely different service schedules, even our front wheel bearings I guess we're meant to be replaced every 1000 hours with a front loader of course. Can't remember what he said rough service life of the pinion seals were but it was either 250-500 hour's some guys extended the life with Lucas Hub Oil which is what I'm putting back in to mine. I have the Deere 1050 which I picked up from a neighbor, who bought it with the house from the original owner...neither were very good at the mechanical side so my front axle needed help from day 1. Hoyte as you already listed has been incredible Man, but they slipped up and forgot to give me the inner most wheel bearing (maybe he thought I wouldn't need it?) Besides that they're perhaps the best there is, guys say you can't get parts for our tractors, you and I know that's not really true. If we have a little time to spare we can find everything needed including turbos, engine parts, gear clusters at the same dam price as any other A lot of talk to say excellent video and an excellent job, and a massive thank you for replying. You should do some more videos covering your tractor as there's so few you pretty much own the market haha easy money for you Man

Thanks. Let us know how it goes for you.

John Dunlavey Not sure about JD stuff at that detail John. But the folks at hoye tractor would know. They were helpful to me in the past. Give them a call and tell us what you learn. www.hoyetractor.com/

Phil Hall no biggie in the misspelling except it won’t get you where you need to go. Then not knowing any different, you can’t find them.

Once you get it all back together just fill the axle back up with gear lube through the hole on top of the axle. You just have to give the lube time to work through the hubs to make sure the level is right.

Hey Dan, Mine had some handy threaded bolt holes to use to push it off with. Check here in the video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dSCd7dQnxNc.html around 14:30 minutes

Tim, For what I saw from parts break down images on-line they are made differently. But the seal looks like it is much easier to install.

Sorry, I have not had to fix one of those yet.

Okay Thanks

Never seen a 950 in person but I have heard that the 850 and 950 are about the same as mine. Let us know if the fix for yours is the same as my Yanmar.

john deere didn't have the hub we broke so we order it from Yanmar $600 for a hub housing no gears or bearings. Now we're working on the other side has the same problem you are showing .
