Greetings!
I am new to the forum and loving it.
I have recently aquired a Kubota B7000. Upon changing all the fluids I discovered that the front right " outer drive case " ( I believe that's what it's called) was leaking.
The tractor starts and seems to run and drive well.
I have searched this site and others and have not been able to find anything to assist with the removal of the outer case..
I have downloaded the manuals of the B6000 and B71000 tractors form www.kubotabooks.com
As per the instructions , I have removed the 6 bolts to the cover and have been trying to pull the outer axel out but it seems to be jammed and there isn't enough room to get any tool in to drive the gear backward to clear the seal.

1) Any suggestions?

2) Can someone provide the part numbers for the seals and bearings for the outer drive case, please?

Thanks in advance
Kevin

Most of the final drives come apart by laying the axle flange down on a bench. Pull the inner bearing, drive the bevel gear down to access the two cir-clips, pull the clips out and remove the bevel gear and pull the outer bearing and then the axle flange away from the cover.

If that is where the leak is?

FYI your picture is too small to read!
