They do make a drive in style seal for those so you don’t need to pull them down to change it but they cost about double a normal one at dealership.

Yes I thought that was a possibility, however the pto side has the oil pump cam in the way. So you can’t really just pull the clutch off and washer a pop a new one in. Well I guess you can if I pulled the oil pump out by screwing a bolt into the bottom and tugging it out of the way and pushing it back in.
I was just as happy to do it once and just do both sides and the pan while I was there .. it's wasn’t that long ago I rebuilt it and put new seals in . So I wasn’t really sure why the pto was leaking ? Or was it the pan ? And I sort of saw that the pto bearing had spun a bit beforehand so I wanted to address this issue at the same time. Hopefully I’ve addressed it by dimpling the pan where it sits 🤞 I did check the bearing adswell and that seemed fine..

Any how it got tuned today, it runs like it did before, so what ever was wrong ? I fixed it and hopefully it don’t need to come apart again for another few yrs.
If it does then I think I need to look a bit more into it and ask here why etc.

Made it to and from the office. Left early as it started getting nasty as another system blew in. Driveway will be cleaned with a skid steer later this weekend, just need to not get stuck in it before that happens.

I’d move. Glad you got to and from work today. Looks like you guys have a good amount of snow. We have been losing it with the warm temps and rain this week.
