This is a follow up on my 300 outer axle seal leak. When we jacked up the tractor, the tractor axle moved about 1/4 inch. Removed the outer cap to find the bearing severely damaged. The interesting thing is that when we took the inner race out, the outer race fell out or part of it did. The outer race was broke in half down the middle of the ball path!! One of the balls was even broke right in half. Luckily the axle shaft was not damaged. Only other concern was I was told by a guy who does lots of work on these tractors that the outer seal needed to be replaced with 2 seals. Two seals would not fit in the cap. The other guy helping me did drive out 2 metal pieces, one was the seal, the other a hallow metal cap. Does anyone know if the felt wick seal was originally held in place by a metal cap? Anyway two seals would not go into the cap and the metal cup we had was damaged and would not go back into the area where the felt wick seal was. So we put the felt wick in place and drove the IH seal into place and put the cap on.
