I have an JD LX277AWS, that will be my winter project to get back into running shape again. It has the K62 Tuff Torq hydro transmission in it, and I have two leaks that I need to address.
1st one is between the main housing and cover. I tried calling tuff torq and kept going to voicemail, and none of their documents open this AM for some reason, go figure... However, it doesn't appear there is an actual gasket for this, but instead you use gasket maker such as John Deere Gasket Maker and Sealant - PM710XX280? Or is that something better?
2nd one is an the axle shaft, and looks like this is a simple seal that needs replaced. I however can't find anything on JD's website or anywhere else that shows how the rear wheel, shaft, u-joints comes apart. I'm guess is all just unbolts, but would kind of like to know what I am getting into before I tear apart.
thanks.
