As can be seen in the photo there is a lot of oil sticking around the inside the bell housing. This could only have come from the engine or the gearbox. The crankshaft rope seal has been replaced on the engine so there will be no more leaks from that side. As a precaution however we replaced the oil seals and gaskets in the gearbox. It was necessary to remove the gearbox as the drive and pto input shaft combination cannot be pulled forward and removed until the pto constant mesh gear is dropped down. To allow this to happen the pto driveshaft is pulled to the rear (after removing the bearing). Inspection showed the rest of the gearbox is in very good condition
