case 850b leaking brake fluid

[johnny shane swann]

Leaking brake fluid internally.Is there away to get to the brakes without taking the tracks and final drives off? I don't have a manual.Was wondering if you could get to them from the top of the transmission.I'm having to refill master cylinder every hour.No sign of brake fluid I don't know if it going into the tran. or the final drive. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

johnny; your brakes are not located in final drives--they are under floorboard, L&R units coming off trans front cover, drive shaft is centered right below-get a manual--some case models did not use brake fluid, but used TCH fluid, cross contaminaton ruins system. i cannot remember on the B for sure, but believe it has slave cyls. mounted to apply levers coming out of brake units. not hard to find, as park brake cable is strung thru them--they can leak & run into belly pan. 1--better info on crawler forum; 2--get proper manual= good luck- paul
