The big lower seal went bad on the swing drive and oil was leaking into the case and out through the swing bearing.
I just replaced the seal in the drive, not the entire swing drive.

That's great on the 290! I'm still looking for another 200 size machine and have not been able to find anything
in state, so looks like I'll be hunting the auctions!

Gotcha on the seal leak. Not sure how far afield you are willing to go for auction hunting but if there is anything at RB Edmonton you want a second look at let me know as the yard is 5 minutes away from my workplace.
