    Hub to axle seal job complete on a 1533, Photos

    Thanks Torch... The photos I am sure will help people out to understand the type of seal/what it should look like. Not sure why I never took a photo of the new seal.

    Torch... The 'speedy sleeve' is part of the seal. If you look up 5 post I show a photo of the sleeve. I should have posted to make sure you remove it before installing the new seal (I added those photos because some how they went missing from my earlier post). I added a photo to this post just...

    Did you check above your 1st post? I know they aren't showing on the 1st page but they are above. Oil type... I am not sure (tractor has been gone for many years), I just can't remember. It could be hydraulic/trans oil or 80W90. You should be able to see/smell what type it is, not sure what the...

    I was asked by a member to see if I could find the photos that aren't showing up in my 1st post... 13 years later, I found them on a CD (lol who says CDs in computers are dead). Photos posted, part 1

    Hub to axle seal job complete on a 1533, Photos

    Shaya99... I think one of two things could have happened here. Either the bearing is not seating on the axle correctly (you say it is) or the more then likely problem, you didn't remove the "2nd" piece of the seal on the axle and that is stopping the bearing from riding all the way up, (because...

    451 and 573, what do think?

    I was looking for a new tractor to replace my loved 1533 that was sold a few years ago. I was hoping for a 1643, but started looking at the Kioti DS models, if I go the route of a new compact I would have to go with the Kioti DS4110HS or DS4510HS, the 1643 is just to much. But my dealer had to...

    Comparison  DS4110HS or DK40SE or even a Massey 1643

    Hey guys... I sold my Massey 1533 some time ago (it was a good tractor) and I am starting to look at tractors again and my eye started looking at the Kioti, for a few reasons, but the warranty time got me looking that way the most. In any case my dealer is a Kioti and Massey dealer and what he...

    1533/challenger 265B troubleshooting help

    Yes 1st make sure your seat switch is good to go, then look at this http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/massey-ferguson-owning-operating/106036-1533-no-start-problem.html <<< If that solenoid is weak I just wonder if it would do what you are saying is happening to you.

    Swivel Housing Seal, Leaking on a 1533 @ 300hrs.

    Hi guys... I had a nice surprise today while cutting grass, I happen to notice the right front side axle swivel housing seal is leaking. Cleaned it up to see how much, and to put it in type I would say a drip every 3 seconds, so needless to say I need to replace it. I did do a search here on...

    Tractor Supply, Hydraulic/Trans fluid?

    I was just wondering if anyone has used Hydraulic fluid from Tractor Supply and if you have what was the make/cost? I have a geared trans so I am not that concerned about getting the Massy stuff... Or should I be? I am not doing a fluid change, just topping off. I didn't notice one of my FEL...
