I have a Cat 430e backhoe that has a leak coming from the seal closest to the tire. To replace this seal, does the entire steering knuckle have to come off? If so, do the bearings on the top and bottom have to come out as well as the planetary cover? I would be grateful if anybody could provide me with some steps to complete this job. Thanks!
