I recently replaced the break cross shaft seals, they have been leaking for a long time. How do I know how much and what kind of fluid to add back in!!!!

Thank you,

Randy

Engine oil works everywhere in a Dexta.

As for how much there is a level plug on the right side of the gearbox, this should be a square headded plug, take this out fillup gearbox with oil until it just starts to leak out the hole then run the plug back in.
