When I
was still able to work, this was a common scenario. Customer wants a
transmission service, the unit gets filled properly during said
service. Panic filled phone call the next morning, "There's OIL all
over my driveway/garage floor !" "It wasn't leaking before you worked
on it!"
And they were correct. Because it wasn't FULL before we
worked on it. <VBG>

It occurs to me that there may not have been a full 64 ozs
of old oil in there. You put in the correct amount and the new oil
met-up with dry old axle seals.
Hope the axle housings are loose.

George,
The first time I changed the oil in mine I got a leak too. I
found the axle housings that bolt up to the main housing were both very
loose. I tightened them back up and have had no problems since. It
probably wouldn't hurt to check the tightness of all the bolts while
you're under there.

I drained the gear oil out of my old E14 and replaced it
with new gear oil. Thought I was doing my perfectly running tractor a
favor. Since doing that it has leaked gear oil pretty good which it
never leaked before. Do I need to tear the whole rear end out and
replace the seals? (Something I've never attempted) Where does one find
such parts for these old peerless rear ends? Thanks in advance!
