L2800 HST PTO Troubles

[Russell King]

Consider how much effort was put into getting to this point. Was it easy or difficult? If you had to do it again to get to the above parts, would you be frustrated or just disappointed with yourself for not already doing it?

They don’t look bad at all to me. But if they are just a few bucks, I would just go ahead and do it. If they are over what you consider a few bucks, I would just put it together with what you have.

Not the worst but slightly nicked up... Are you replacing them or leaving them?

Someone asked a long time ago about re-surfacing them? No one had an answer to that...

One guy who changed his out had a problem with lining up some gears, his solution was wrapping a thin string around the gear so that he could rotate it when putting it back together. (just in case that happens to you, too)

I am going to replace, I don’t want to tear it all down again, figured now is the time!

Not bad at all just real time consuming but the cost savings is worth it, parts were about 1300 with all of the worn out stuff I discovered

This is the farthest I have tore into this tractor, I have also repaired a blown head gasket and I have broke the front pinion twice and repaired it twice!
