The front oil seal has a leak. The radiator and misc were removed to access the the mounting nut on the pulley. The nut was removed. After some time the pulley was on its way to be removed when it has hit the frame and can't go any farther. Looks like about 1 inch short of clearance. The tractor has a front end loader and is 4 wheel drive. As it looks right now, the way to get it removed is to disassemble the whole front end to pull it all forward. All this for an oil seal? Any thoughts and help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Unfortunately you'll probably have to tear down the front end. At least removing the fel. Had to pull the front end on mine in order to get in there. Mines only 2wd and no fel, so it was just 5 bolts. You might be able to pull the bolts and slide the front end forward enough to get in there. I would be leary doing it with the fel on though.
