Part of the John Deere Repair Manuals.
You will have the planetary carrier off the hub and this book open beside it within the hour: the John Deere 1100, 1150, Teammate II 2561R Technical Manual PDF, OEM number CTM44, 116 pages written for outboard planetary axles. Exploded views break the input quill, differential, and knuckle-spindle assembly down to the last thrust washer, and the teardown procedures run the length of the book, each one closing with the reassembly spec you need. Diagnosis work is covered too, including the air test of the axle assembly and the leakdown test on brake piston packings. Torque the planet pinion retaining screws to 310 N·m (229 lb-ft), and scrap that knuckle-spindle bushing once wear passes 75.155 mm (2.959 in.). Guessing costs a second teardown, or a ruined ring gear. Bookmarks drop you straight into Steering or Brakes, so your field window stays open.
