Sherman Transmission Install

[Woodchuck]

Does this site sell the transmission front seal? I looked in the parts pages and couldn't find it.
I hope to start installing my Sherman this weekend and want to make sure I have all the parts.

Woody......yep, YT does sell the tranny front seal that fits the Sherman input shaft.

It's GOOD to support this site! HOWEVER, for ONE small part like that seal the shipping will probably eat you alive.

Go to a local auto parts store or industrial "bearings and drives"-type supplier and ask for a SKF (C/R) # 13568 or a National or Timken # 480570.

If they have it in stock or can get it on a stock order in a day or two you MAY not have to pay freight.

The NH part # is 8N7052A2, about $8 at the local NH dealer, but they don't stock it.

The nearby Deere dealer even has it in stock (for about $12) under DEERE part # AH21815. That's kinda pricey but MIGHT still be cheaper than ordering and paying freight.

Woodchuck,

Did you happen to rebuild your Sherman?
Just wondering how it went if you did, I'm about to rebuild mine.

Thanks Dell and Bob!
I ordered a clutch kit and a new exhaust so the shipping isn't to bad. $19.00 on the whole order.
I got my Sherman combo from Jim Bills, a member of this site, who rebuilds them.
I've had it about a year and a half and am just getting around to installing it.

Thanks, again!

Chuck,

You shouldn't have needed to order that seal. I always replace that seal when I go thru a Sherman. Did I miss one or do a bad job of it?
 

[Woodchuck]

Jim,
It's been so long since I got the Sherman from you I didn't even look.
I guess now I have to get another N so I can use up the extra.
The wife will be so happy!
