Transmission countershaft nut

[Dave47M]

I am trying to remove the transmission countershaft nut on a 1947M so I can replace the seal. This nut also serves as the drive for the hydraulic pump. I would like to know if the threads are CW or CCW, I have gently tried both directions with no results.

Thanks,
Dave

It is a right hand thread so it comes off counter clockwise. Put it in high, lock the brakes and get a pipe wrench, or a bar in the slot and have at it . If that doesn't work I pull shift lever and lock it in two gears.

I cut a piece of bar to fit in slot and welded to a old socket.Used impact wrench.Make sure that there is a tight fit

Yeah, because the nut will chip if using an impact.

I have a Craftsman pry bar that is 1/2 x 1/2 that fits in the slot. Engage the PTO leaving the transmission in neutral. Turn the PTO to unscrew the nut.

Does that seal have to be leather like it came from the factory or can i replace with neopreme
