Overview
This is a real hands-on teardown of an axle seal leak on a 2032R with roughly 1,500 hours, not a walkaround or a review. The owner pulls the loaded rear tire, disassembles the final drive, finds a chewed-up bearing missing balls plus metal chunks in the housing, and diagnoses the seal failure back to that bad bearing. It ends unresolved, waiting on bearings and seals, with a part two promised. Best for owners troubleshooting their own final drive leak or wanting to see what's actually inside.
An owner-operator DIYing repairs on his own tractor, narrating the process in real time including the parts he doesn't get right the first time.
