  Working on an 1948 8-n tractor,need to replace pto oil seal on the back, do I need to remove the bearing housing, and if so are there any problem getting it back together

  You may get a better response on one of the Ford tractor forums. There are several forums and one of them should be able to give you a good answer based on experience.

  Park the tractor with the front end slightly down hill to keep the oil in place. Next you need to remove the 4 bolts holding the PTO, and remove the whole shaft. The seal is held in place with a snap ring. Remove and replace the seal.
A thorough explanation can be found in a I&T shop manual #FO-4 which is available at most farm stores like TSC or Family Farm. They are also available on line from YT Tractor who hosts an excellent forum.
