Two with the wheels set normal. Three with the wheels set wide.
I'm pretty sure if you have the CE White motors you will also need a internal bearing puller.

I don't understand what you are saying about the wheels. Were they set narrow or wide when the motor started leaking, or have you ran them in the wide position.

OK, I searched on "torque tube." Lots of hits, but of the wrong kind.
I just used my cheater bar and weight, which gave a calculated torque within the range given in the spec. Fortunately I work cheap, which saved a few bucks.

Bob,I believe those are for the lug nuts on cars and trucks. Probably no more torque than around 120 lbs. Those will torque most all cars and trucks lug nuts.
I saw one for 475 lbs, and the price was $120.

JJ,
Mine are in the stock position. I will try to get the wheel off when I get some time and try to see what model it is. Thanks for all the input guys. Regarding the tools (e.g. hub puller) needed to service the motor, can anyone provide a link to examples so I know what to buy? (sorry for all the questions, but it's a huge help)
I'm considering buying a replacement motor and a rebuild kit, so I can swap out the bad one and fix it as a back up.
Thanks again!

JJ--The 1/2" torque stick set from Harbor Freight ranges from 65 t0 150 ft/lbs.
Of course a torque wrench that works in the 475 lb range will also be expensive.

Here are a couple of pullers that should work.
OTC-7394
OTC-1037
I didn't check to see if those are good prices.
Mine is similar to the OTC-1037, if it isn't the exact model. I initially tried the biggest puller that Harbor Freight had. It literally exploded on me. I even broke one leg of the OTC puller the second time I pulled a hub. You need to use lots of heat to get these things off. Whoever puts them on at Power Trac plainly doesn't want them to come off accidentally.
Rather than use a torque wrench, which is an expensive item in the size required, you can just use your body weight and a little math. The formula is
Torque = BW x CBL
where BW is body weight in pounds and CBL is cheater bar length in feet measured from the center of the motor shaft to the center of your grip.
I torqued my hubs to 450 ft lbs.

JJ,
Two started leaking within the first 150hrs with the wheels set narrow. Three leaked in the next 400 hrs with the wheels set wide.
