PROJECT: Removed/Repaired/Reinstalled both front axle gear case units on Kubota model BX2230D. R&R both front axle oil seals, R&R both front axle inner & outer bearings, R&R both front axle gear case upper dual-piece oil seals, R&R silicone sealant on both front axle gear case covers (Kubota Silicone Sealant Gray #70000-73764-620), reassembled both front axle gear case units, torqued front axle gear case covers mounting bolts, reinstalled both front gear case units to the front differential case, allowed sealant to cure overnight. The following morning serviced front differential system with 5 quarts 80/90 gear oil. Many various tools required to complete process; hand tools, torque wrench. gear puller, hydraulic press, etc. I found that a Coupling for 2 inch diameter scedule 40 PVC pipe worked nicely installing the front axle gear case upper dual-piece oil seals. Nothing easy about any part of this project. The time stated is from the start to the finish of this project.

Part of front axle and differential rebuild. Replaced all seals and bearings. Not that hard. Be sure and have snap ring pliers, press, bearing separator and pullers available. Hardest part is removing the snap rings. I removed complete unit by removing 4 bolts at end of axle. and did the rebuild on the workbench. Remove the inside snap ring on the bevel gear case first. Pry and pull apart the 2 halves of the case then remove the snap ring inside the lower case housing. Some bearings will require puller or press to remove. On assembly remember to put the smaller snap ring on the shaft before inserting shaft and stearing bearings into the housing. Total time 3 to 4 hours but I had done this before.
