    John Deere 555 questions

    Injection pump is leaking also, but this is coming from the transmission, and appears close to where the engine and transmission connect, where the pump is.

    New to me John Deere 555a

    955L fluid leak question

    Yes I have run equipment and crews since 89, and know its not a big playground, especially when part is steep. I have had my eye on a dresser 125 with a 4 in 1 bucket that looks nice also.

    955L fluid leak question

    I believe he said at the final drive. Is there a seal that’s fairly simple to replace or is it a bear? The machine appears to be in great shape and he just had seals out in the adjusters.
