Big Sale Is On - UPDATED 03-36-26

The Big Sale is on but not like originally planned, it is a by appointment type of thing now. Be sure to call before you come to make sure the day isn't already full with peeps scheduled to come in, and make sure what you want is still available.

Leak at the brake was created by nappypappy
Its had a leak for awhile now but I got looking at it yesterday and it seems to be coming from around the brake on this 8speed..
I did replace the brake on it several years ago....
So my question is what would cause it to leak?
Do need to take the tranny apart?
Worn out bushings bearings seals etc....:smile2

Pappy, unless the needle bearing is shot, the seal can be replaced without pulling the transmission. If there's side to side play in the brake shaft it'll need a new bearing. The TORO part number for the seal is 100441 or go to NAPA and get an SKF7410, 0.75" Shaft Diameter 0.999" Bore Diameter 0.125" Width.

well its leaking at the brake for sure.....looks like I will have to take it apart.........are there many gaskets that I need to order?
Has anybody else had to take a 8 apart and what gaskets did you replace?
Or should I wait till I open it to order anything?
Anybody have any pictures?
