450e steering clutch pressure manifold
450e steering clutch pressure manifold
Good day all. This is my first post but I've searched and found much info here in the past. My current issues is with my 450e. Recently after running for a couple of hours I noticed shifting became a little sluggish. I check fluid level of HLR and it was low. No external leaks. Checked clutch housings and found right side full to pipe plug. I pulled top cover and drained. I can see fluid leaking from bottom of manifold ring when in drive. Is there supposed to be any leakage at manifold ring? Also wonder why it's not returning to the center housing to equal level. Was really hoping it was just a leak at hose so I would not have to remove clutch assembly. Thanks for any knowledge, Andy.

You will need to rebuild your clutch assembly or buy a new one. We get them turned down and sleeved which saves some money. Best to replace the oring and all piston rings, they are not that expensive.

That's what I was afraid of. Guess I'll be taking it apart when I find time.
