I noticed that the 876 was leaking trans fluid on the garage floor after i parked it.
Went out the next day and cleaned up the spot and put a can under the hydro.
Checked the next two days and nothing in the can. So that told me it only leaks when its running
Fired it up this afternoon and let it run and cycled the lift a few times
Shut it off and checked all the hoses, filter and anything else I could see from the top
Crawled underneath and found fluid dripping from the area circled in the photo
If I replace the two parts noted on the photo is there a good chance that would fix the problem or are there bigger issues???

Hello! I have been reading posts for a few years as I’ve tinkered with my two great wheel horses. I have a 1968 Charger 12 auto with a leak coming from the motion control linkage, as well as the tow valve being seized up, lastly, the parking brake is not locking up the transaxle. My primary concern is the leakage though. Do I need to remove the pump and motor to get at this, or can one replace it with them in place and just remove the linkage pieces? I suspect if I have to remove them, then fixing the parking brake makes sense, and maybe I can find a way to free up that tow valve. I have it soaking in PB blaster per a comment on that issue from a few years ago. By the way, my other horse is a C-81. Attachments include a grader blade, a dozer blade, 2 decks and a cultivator. Looking for a tiller for the Charger.

Well my old 1973 Auto18 just suffered a problem. And I have a feeling it is not good.
It has been running like a champ past several years since the Sunstrand tranny was rebuilt beautifully.
I have been following the instructions of keeping the oil clean, changing filters/oil every 50hrs etc..
Was using it yesterday and suddenly it stopped moving forward or backward.
It didn't take long to see that tranny oil was pouring out the rear wheel axle. At least a quart or two poured out into that tray.
I jacked up the tractor and now see that there is a good 1 ½" of exposed axle when i tried to remove the wheel. Wheel did not come off as one of the bolts was frozen. So this is what I have.
I'm sitting down.... Can someone tell me how bad this is?? Gulp!
At first I thought it was just an axle seal. But that would be way to simple correct?
Thanks for any help on this matter!

I know it is not best practice to push a hydro around. I've searched owners manual I printed from this site, as well as tranny manual....it seems it's on the left side but actual location is vague to me. I have a 73 16h hydro. The no name year I believe.
any help would be appreciated
thanks

I have a D-200 that i changed the oil in the back out of the dipstick a couple weeks ago. It had some water in it. Now i checked again and its the same thing. Any help on this would be appreciated. How much oil goes in these Horses. And is there separate reservoir for hydro pump and transaxle.
