Massey Ferguson MF50 Rear Main Seal Replacement

[WranglerBowman]

Wanted to find it who has personally made this repair and what were some of the difficulties or issues you came across. I'm thinking about buying an MF50 that needs a new rear main seal (where the engine meets the trans) and am curious what I'm getting myself into. It seems fairly straight forward to me, just break the tractor in half and replace, but I want to make sure there's nothing I'm missing. Thanks.

G'day I think from memory all of them you have to go up through the plate on the bottom of the bellhousing to unbolt the tourqe convertor before you wheel the engine forward also depends on the model as to wether you have a rope seal or full lip type.
