Seems as if I have excessive play in the front axle. Definitely the bearing on the front stub axle as well as those on the vertical shaft. No problem so far with disassembling the vertical shaft, but I have been unable to remove the stub shaft. I have an o-ring on the cover rather than a gasket and can not get it far enough out to see any snap ring. Repeated prying of the cover only locks the bevel gear into the back of the housing.
Does anyone know the secret for removal?
