SW Idaho
The whole back of the tractor has to come off with the 3pt arms. Need to replace some parts on a 5140 and was told it was not to bad of job. Dealer quoted about $900 to fix so it must come apart real easy. I assume you have a leak around the shaft. Looks like the seal around the coupler that the shaft slides into counld be changed from out side by digging the old one out.
