Grinder,
If you are still looking for information for your knuckle oil leak, contact Messicks.com. They will give you a parts breakdown sheet and you can order the seal assembly. If your L3010 is anything like my L3130, pretty straightforward in replacing the seal. Just need a couple of good large snap ring pliers as the snap rings are beefy.
Good Luck,
David

PS I put off replacing the seal as I needed the tractor for a job. Added oil the axle for 6 months or so. Just checked it every few days.

Since the OP is in Canada, maybe he should check with Paul Short for a good dealer to work with... I think Messicks may have issues with shipping parts to Canada, based on earlier posts, if my memory is correct??
