My left hand stabilizer would weep down slowly over a few days and it just anoyes me. So while the tractor is out of commission while I attempt to replace a leaking oil seal on the front axel I decided what the heck lets pull more things apart. I got the cap off ,boy that thing was a bugger, I ended up having to use a pipe wrench with a 4foot leverage bar while it was still connected to the backhoe.
I slid the gland off and got the piston out and cleaned them up. When I pulled the piston off I found the culprit. The small o ring on the inside of the piston was torn up, 1st and last pictures. The o rings are an easy replacement. My question is the smaller (ring) that sits next to the black ring on the piston,second pic, is that part of the seal kit? And if so how do I remove it? The second question is the seal that sits on the inside of the gland, turquoise in color with a metal center third picture,how do I remove that? Do I tap at it from the opposite side and push it out. I am going to pick up a seal kit tomorrow. Any advise would be greatly appreciated
Just a note I do have a WSM but it seems they are more geared towards those with more experience
