I'm new to this forum and new to Cubs and have a question.
In looking over my new-to-to me 1955 cub, I noticed there seems to be a cover missing on the right hand axle.
I visited TM Tractor parts and also looked at Rudi's manuals and am confused.
On TM tractor Parts site the part that seems to be missing is called an axle bearing cap if its on the left side, and if it's on the right side it is called an oil seal retainer.
When I look at mine, I can see the axle nut and if I look at the part on TM Tractor Parts, the center is open and would allow me to see the nut, but it covers the nut on the left hand side.
Is the nut on the right hand side supposed to be covered by something?
Thanks !
Gary
