UPDATE: Job complete. Son in law used tractor to lift it up. Skid pans removed 3 bolts removed from front gear box. Here where we ran into a small problem. Gravity helped make sliding the gear box back problematic bur once we found the sweet spot if went back at a slight angle enough to slide the propeller shaft of of the engine output shaft. removed o ring from output shaft and pried seal out with skinny tool. After inspection and good clean up new seal installed, o.ring installed, drive shaft back in place, bolts secured. All done, added oil, rode until well heated, parked, hours later no leak....

If no one else answers, I’ll check my shop manual this evening, I’d think if you pull the skid and do it from the bottom it would be easier.
