Yes the picture is awful and the shaft is filthy in that picture. Here is another picture of the shaft cleaned up a bit. To the right of the pointer is the bearing surface and to the left of the pointer is the seal surface.

I have a YM155D that has had a rear axle seal for quite a while. I don't use the tractor much and if i park it with that side up it wouldn't leak too bad. But with the virus thing and needing the tractor to get things done i figured it was time to fix that problem with a few other things. It is...

I know I am a little late to this thread. But I just happen to have my rear axle area all torn apart to replace a seal. Here are a few pics that may help you or maybe help someone else down the road. My tractor is a YM155D with a front end loader. I added an additional sub frame to support an...

I do have a 155D with front loader and small aftermarket 3 pt backhoe that is modified to attach to frame. It is a bit rough and i rebuilt the engine back in 2005? with help from people here. I try to attach a couple pics. I am not interested in selling. But glad to hear others still working them.

Sometimes my loader wont lift, or is slow to lift with little power. Most times I can curl the bucket up to lock and this seems to get it working good again. Just the other day I went to lift my tiller and when I went to lift loader a bit higher it actually dropped down slowly while I operated...

I have the chance to pick up a 4ft yanmar tiller. But iam not so sure my little 155D can handle it? I know my engine is 15 hp 2 cylinder diesel, and I think its PTO is 13 hp output rating. Can my little tractor work this tiller ok? The price is $625 and Im thinking if I want it I better act...

I lurk here all the time, and really learn ALOT from you guys. My question is..... My little YM155d has a rough time starting. I try to spin it up with the compression release pulled to get some oil flowing. Then when I release it, it seems like 1 cylinder starts to fire right off. But the other...

I have a Yanmar 155D with a cat1 3 point hitch. It also has a yanmar fel attached. I tried to hook up a small BH that I bought on Ebay, (paid $650.00 for BH). I estimated the BH to weigh roughly 500 lbs. But when I tried to lift it it would only lift about an inch or two and then wouldnt hold...

First I want to thank all of you for posting advice and fixes. I lurk here alot and you all have helped me fix things from the small stuff to rebuilding my engine. She runs good and has saved my bad back a lot of pains. My latest pickle is, I picked up a small 3pt backhoe for my 155D that...

My manual says to coat the piston liner with a water-proofing paint. I assume it is for where the coolant will be contacting the liner. But im not sure what kind of paint to use? I know that flat black tends to tranfer heat better than others, but will regular old krylon spray paint work? Does...

I recently picked up a yanmar 155d, that needed alot of tlc. It has a 2TR13A 2 cylinder diesel. I knew it had alot of hours on it, but it seemed to run good and work well, other than smoke and some wiring issues. So i first changed out the fuse block and got the idiot lights working. Then worked...
