702 Transmission Seal Wanted

[gattonde 1]

I am replacing all the transmission oil seals on my 702. I cannot locate a place to purchase the drive pully oil seal Wheel Horse Part #1303. Does anyone know where I can get one or any replacement part numbers.

Thanks,

You might try NAPA. Just take your old one with you

and they can match it.

One more question. The manual states to use #40 Gear Oil in Transmission. I have been using 90 weight gear oil in my C-160. Is that the same as #40 Gear Oil.

Manuals of that period frequently called for 40 wt motor oil for the rear end. Later the recommendations were changed to more regular gear oil. My 67 Lawn ranger has been using 40 wt motor oil since she was new with out any problems and she shifts easily in the winter.

Your seal 1303 crosses to CR 7410 (.75 shaft .999 bore 0.125 thick)

I've been using 80-90 coastal gear lube for years!!!

Never had a problem

On the Red Square website there is a very handy reference any time you are looking for a new oil seal.

It is listed under:

Wheel Horse Links, Links to your favorite Wheel Horse sites

There is a list of Parts Suppliers

http://www2.chicago-rawhide.com/popup_part...okup_457012.htm

SKF Chicago Rawhide has a wheel horse seal cross reference.

Just plug in your seal number and a new number will generally popup that you can take to NAPA or some other autoparts company or oil sealer supplier.

Thanks Lane Ranger, I have saved that site as a favorite.

What gear oil do you use in your ranger?

The manual for my 702 says S.A.E. 90 Gear Lube. I'll bet yours does too, but your "9" may look like a "4".

The lube recommendation chart published later calls for SAE 90-140 A.P.I. service GL-5 gear lube.

Gear Lube is not the same as engine oil.

I use 90 weight gear oil in the Unidrive of the Lawn Ranger.
