Also, the very last plate that goes on before the washer and snap ring is rattling and making a lot of racket. Is this part of my problem? I could use some help!

I just rebuilt my Type B PTO clutch with brake. Sounds like you don't have the PTO adjusted correctly. You don't need the pto gauge tool, that's for Type A and Type B PTO's w/out the brake. My PTO rebuild kit supplied me with the measurement you are looking for. If you look at the first link Dwayne posted, Part 17, brake disc, needs to be 1/4 inch from part 5, the Pulley. You need to measure the distance around the entire brake and adjust the screws accordingly. The plate you are talking about before the washer and snap ring is the brake disc. If you adjust the pto correctly the 3 fingers on the brake disc will sit deep enough in the pulley so there shouldn't be that much play or movement. The manual doesn't supply the measurement for the brake disc to pulley for some reason. It does give you the measurement for the distance between the brake disc and the brake shoe, part 21 in Dwayne's link. If you have a PTO with part #8 thrust button and part #9 wear button then you need a PTO gauge as Dwayne states.
