Hi all I guess this question has been asked before but the final drive on my little Hitachi is leaking hydraulic fluid and I just had a question
Is it only gear oil that the cone seals keep in or does hydraulic oil also rely on the duo seals
Or is it possible to just remove the motor and service the seals whilst leaving the gearbox in place
I removed my opposite side and found the duo seals were ok just needed to do the motor seals
It's way quicker to remove the motor and do a seal replacement
Any thoughts greatly appreciated in advance regards Tommy in Australia
