Has any one replaced the PTO clutch seal on an Apex. Everytime I rolled my sled I would find oil all over the clutches...........I checked all the air box hoses and everything and had pretty much given up, then I tipped it up and left it for a while, came back and the oil is leaking out the PTO shaft seal.........looked like an easy fix, remove cover press in seal and go...........NOT so, seems the seal is integral to the bearing, and yamaha doesn't even list it! I'm sure I'm not the first guy to have this seal leaking.........and a 600 dollar shaft assembly for a leaking seal seems a bit crazee! If someone blew a belt they could take this seal out............any guidance would be appreciated!
