My 66 1276 I recently purchased has a leak somewhere around the rear end. Looks like maybe somewhere around where it meets the frame at the front of it. Any ideas of where to look or what I could possibly search for first

Give it a good bath and get all the grease and crud off first off. Then park it over a piece of cardboard and see where it drips. It's much easier to pinpoint leaks if everthing is clean. Try and trace the drip out to where it my be coming from. Its possble a bolt that holds the frame to the transmission but unlikely. More than likely is around  a input shaft seal or the like. Change the oil in it, if you have a new to you tractor who knows when that was done last and if it's even the proper type. I've had a couple of leaks quit once I got the proper type fluid in it but than is kind of a long shot.

Was thinking bath also. It looks like it's up by the frame so I wondered that myself. I will do that and post as soon as I can with more thanks

      1276 Transmission HELP Needed
      By 1276Beast
      I am currently towards the end of a 1276 restoration project, I just got everything back together and sent power to the transmission for the first time. Without the pump on and the gear in neutral, I can spin the axels by hand, one goes one way, the other, the other way, giving me indication that I don't have a differential problem. When I put power to it, everything appears to work as advertised, except when in gear I can stop the Axel from spinning with my hand, little to no resistance. I do have a bit of a rigging problem from worn linkage, but I can move the cam by hand to get it fully in gear. The tow gear in completely closed. Just flushed and filled with fluid. I have not changed the filter. 
       
      Any idea on why there seems to be no power in the axels??
