4310 leak (help)
Noticed my tractor has fluid on the tractor side of tire. Looks like it may be coming out where the wheel hooks to the drive shaft. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: 4310 leak (help)
Sounds like a leaky axle seal. If it's just a drip now and then - you could likely live with it for a spell - and your tractor won't suffer undue harm - IMO.
Worked around a fair number of older, Ag machines and a few of them had axle seals that were tired and worn - so, there was always bit of gear lube on the floor every morning.
The repair looks to be reasonably difficult - here is a part's diagram - John Deere - Parts Catalog
And, likely will require that you take it to a dealer or an experienced tractor repair shop.
