See attached photos for list of RTV this fits. Great condition and ready to use

Taillights and wiring are in great condition and work. Taillight in 2nd photo has slight distortion from overheating (minor and doesn't affect fit)

Harness is in perfect condition - all connectors are good.

Consider sharing some pictures of the digger and engine.

C'mon Dan - there's nothing quite like laying in the dirt under a machine with oil dripping in your face! Hahahahaha Given the situation, I totally agree with letting a pro do it saving me time and disappointment.

Also consider replacing those electrical connectors with something better. Like Deutz style (or Deutsch) connectors - get ones with pigtails already attached to make it easier. Get the same wire size (or larger) used in the pigtail. Here are some examples of what they look like.

The RTV1140 has a hydraulic pressure release activated when you step on the brake. Its on the very back and right side of the transmission under the hydraulic filter. Could be the thing is out of adjustment or stuck. Also check all linkages and cables (including up front thru to the back) for...

Good luck with it! Ah yes! Shifting priorities....

Also, having done this before, you definitely do not need to glop that stuff on those machined surfaces. A fine line on the machined surface that does not - or barely peeks through when tightened is all that's needed. Are you replacing Orings? Brake discs? Just curious...
