Had a very slow 90W leak out of the right front spindle on my B9200 so ordered replacement seals from Messick's and also a block heater while I was at it. (Messick's=great folks to work with)
Noticed a lot of play in the hub after removing the wheel/tire and discovered the outer bearing had shot craps. The cage had broken letting the balls lose their spacing. Put in a new 6305 bearing and the new seal and seems good to go. Sure glad I decided to replace the seal even though it wasn't leaking badly otherwise I may have run a long time on the bad bearing and caused some expensive damage. I'm impressed with the workmanship in this Kubota assembly
