Ever since the repair I did on my gearbox of my SuperMajor http://www.fordsontractorpages.nl/phpbb ... al+gearbox
oil from the gearbox was slowly leaking into the rear axle.
Once in a while I pumped some oil back from the rear axle to the gearbox via the hydraulics of the tractor.
About two weeks ago I went to a festival and before I went, I pumped some oil from the rear axle to the gearbox. Afterwards I noticed I pumped a bit too much
and the oil was above the maximum.

The weather was really hot over here: about 30 degrees Celsius (86 degrees Fahrenheit).
During the day I checked to oil level in the gearbox, and unfortunately the oil dropped far too much! I had to pump at least 4 litres to get the oil level correct again.

Perhaps a combination of too much oil in the gearbox and hot day?
What could be the reason of the oil drop?
During the repair on the gearbox I also replaced the rubber seals inside the pto-gearbox. My guess is, that I didn't mount these correctly, since it was
quite a struggle for me with the two seals?

Or is there another place where the oil can leak from the gearbox to the rear axle?
Looking forward to see you reactions!
