Mike'sHorseBarn 3,362 #1 Posted 13 hours ago I've posted about this thing before. Its leaked ever since I got it due to the hole where the input shaft is being wallowed out. I've done seals may times, but i'm just sick of it making a mess of the tractor. Im thinking about taking it off amd putting a manual lift on, but that almost ruins the tractor. Would anyone have a pump that is in better shape than this one i could swap out? Thoughts on the whole ordeal?? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ri702bill 10,203 #2 Posted 5 hours ago (edited) I too have a HY-2 that needed a return spring, so I got the whole Kit from Lowell. The shaft seal was correct but did not fit the housing. I contacted him - after measuring it, we agree that the housing seal bore was machined out to be one size larger for the OD of the seal, with the same original ID. I had to source one - it works fine. That may work for you.... The shaft bore on mine looks original, yours may need a bushing...

I've done seals may times Could you drill it out and press in a bronze bushing and then put in a new seal? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
