I started a thread about a John Deere LX4 bushog and realized that JD LX4 was a poor title.
I have the gear box off the deck and on the bench with the top off.
The rear bearing on the input shaft ground itself up. There is very little oil and a lot of metal flakes.
Can I clean up the bearings or should I replace them all?
How do I remove the rubber seals?
There is a heavy snap ring that holds the bevel gear in place on the input shaft. I now have 3 different snap ring pliers and none are heavy duty or open wide enough to remove the snap ring.
Where can I get a heavy duty snap ring plier?
Thanks
Chris
