Hello!
There's a problem with the direction box of my tractor.
There's vertical play on the shaft !
I tempted to turn the screw at the side of box but there's a sort of notch on the sector shaft...
If I turn the pitman arm with hand, I can see the direction shaft up & down a little (less than 1cm)??!!!
I unmounted all parts of my box because I thought the problem came from the spring at the bottom of direction shaft but it's OK! The spring is absolutely the same as a newer part.
So I found a strange thing on the shaft. (I'm trying to upload pics....)
Maybe the shaft was cutted & joined again probably because it was not the original shaft for this tractor model?? I already see that sort of thing on this tractor (3pt hitch, hydrolic system parts,...)
So the lenght of the longest part of the shaft is actually 49 cm (19,1/4 in)
Can you tell me if it's normal or not?!
Thanks a lot.
