I'm new to this type of equipment, but on cars there shouldn't be fluid in the bell housing. I am not familiar with this part called a torque tube, but is this normal? Thanks
The transaxle drain is at the bottom rear. 90wt The torque tube has two drains. The rear one is where the transaxle joins the torque tube. Then one a bit more forward of that. TCH fluid back in the day.
If you have a power shift shuttle then there will be oil in the bell housing. On another note the starter will have to be a sealed starter if ever replaced.
