Description

If you’ve noticed oil spots under your Ford Super Major and your brakes aren’t stopping like they should, those brake cross shaft seals are likely shot. When these seals fail, gear oil leaks out and soaks into your brake shoes, turning what should be reliable stopping power into a white-knuckle experience when you need to stop. Nothing’s worse than brake fade when you’re trying to slow down a loaded wagon on a hill.

What You’re Getting

Double-lip design keeps gear oil where it belongs and contaminants out
Oil-resistant rubber compound that won’t break down from hot gear oil
Metal reinforced construction prevents seal distortion under pressure
Two seals per pack so you can do both sides at once

Built for Real Farm Work

Ford Super Major tractors are workhorses that handle everything from pulling loaded grain wagons to heavy cultivating work. The brake cross shaft is what transfers your pedal pressure to both rear wheels, and when those seals go bad, you lose the reliable stopping power these heavy-duty tractors need for safe operation around the farm.

Made to Last

These seals use a high-quality rubber compound that resists the heat and chemical breakdown that destroys cheaper seals. The spring-loaded double-lip design maintains constant sealing pressure even as components wear, while the metal reinforcement prevents the seal from being pushed out by gear oil pressure during hard braking.

Good to Know

Clean everything thoroughly before installing new seals – any dirt or metal particles will cause immediate failure. Inspect the shaft surface where the seal rides for grooves or wear that could cause leaks. If your seals failed from age rather than damage, it’s smart to replace both sides while you’ve got things apart. Use a proper seal driver to avoid damaging the sealing lips during installation.
