Thank you.

Hmmm?

I took the guard off the drive line to more arcuately measure the play in the shaft. Instead of " 4" of space for additional compaction" set forth in my initial post above - I have 1 1/2 inches. Does that mean I should cut the shafts?

I bought the Cutter in 2004 (used) and have been using it since then on the B-2400. Thank you both for your thoughts.

I have a B-2400 sometimes connected via a quick connect system to a Deere LX-4 Rotary Cutter. I have been bush hogging my property to ~20yrs with this set up with minimal maintenance. The drive line when connected to the tractor and rotary cutter only has about 4" of space for additional...

The Loctite 545 Automotive Pneumatic/Hydraulic Pipe Thread Sealant Purple failed immediately. Brought the tractor to Woodstock Equipment who used epoxy to seal the bolt in the hole - no leak. Hopefully there will be no need to remove the bolt. I say problem solved. Thanks to everyone for...

Got the tractor running today. The sleeve and Permatex Sleeve Retainer High Temp, 64040 held perfectly - no leaks. Glad you responded before I took the rear axle apart. Don't know how you you put "Solved" before the title of this post - but it is. Thank you so much for your help.

Mountainman is on this site has helped me out with parts for a B. He has a salvage yard and has great prices.

Tomorrow is the day I am doing the thread repair. Weather is expected to cooperate. We shall see. Wish me luck. Thanks for all the help.

Thanks for your help again.... Wolfman - I do have a guy who will do this type of welding but thanks for the offer. Thanks to Mountainman, replaced these plugs (stripped bolt heads) and can use the old ones for building the tester. PoTreeMan - I have the Work Shop Manual and will the sections...
