    John Deere 490 travel motor brake seals

    It just seems like the brake piston would block oil from the shaft seal, so if the case drain pressure was high it wouldn’t matter if the brake seals were fine and the brake pressure is higher then the case drain

    John Deere 490 travel motor brake seals

    I definitely don’t want to guess but if you look at the break down I don’t even think what your saying is possible.

    The machine also drive no problem like it doesn’t lack any power on that track and if the seal was gone and lots of case pressure wouldn’t it be noticeable loss of drive power?

    John Deere 490 travel motor brake seals

    If you look at the break down I just don’t understand how the shaft seal can leak around the brake housing. It looks like if the shaft seal was to leak it could only leak into the brake housing and then only fill the final drive if the brake housing is leaking

    John Deere 490 travel motor brake seals

    That definitely looks promising, does anyone happen to know the dimensions Of the seals before I tear it apart? I always rather have the parts before hand but if I have to I will take it apart and measure them up

    John Deere 490 travel motor brake seals

    My machine is filling the left final drive with hydraulic oil. It drives totally fine so I am suspecting that it’s the brake seals/orings. From the John Deere break down it looks the main orings I need are part #TH100494 but they are not available. Any help finding the seals is much appreciated...
