[QUOTE="tthams1, post: 128187, member: 18894"] Thanks for the reply. You are correct, the seal savor is that repair collar they sell that goes over the axle. I don't believe the chain case is being overfilled because we inspect it with the plug in the the front of the skid steer, and the fluid is right at the bottom of the plug. The skid steer has had some brief moments where twin is wrapped around the front axles during transport of bales. I though about draining the chain case and filling it with synthetic 10W-30 oil. I wonder if the hydraulic oil is getting thinner in weight when it warms up. It is currently the universal trans hydraulic they sell at our local Bomgaars. Other forums have mentioned doing that in the older S series skid steers. With everything so high priced, I was going to call Bobcat today and see what the cost if for the oil they recommend Bobcat Fluid (P/N 6563328) before I make that call. [/QUOTE]
