[QUOTE="skidsteer.ca, post: 48904, member: 307"] Allen Jack it up and see if you can slide the axel in and out. The spec for side movement is .010” If the end movement is close to this spec then the bearings are fine. If it slides in and out .100” or so your seal is gone because the bearings are bad and the job just got much bigger. If its just the seal, loosen the bolt i the center of the wheel hub, put a bottle jack between the frame and the hub on each side to press the hub off the axel. It won't come easy and you may need to slap the center bolt with a hammer to break the taper free. DO NOT remove the center bolt entirely as the hub will fly acroos the shop if not retained by the bolt. Then you can get at the seal to change it. There is also speedy sleeves available to fix the axel if its rough where the sleeve runs. Hopefully a seal and you are up and running again. Ken [/QUOTE]
