pto troubles
Got the chance to work on our 70 today and thought I would give our first shot at our first pto removal and rebuild.Its amazing to me how someone could have ever let this thing go this far.Its only got 4 ears left on the fiber clutch disc left and no fiber button left at all.I just cant imagine letting something go that far but anyway Ive been pb blaster soaking the set screws for a couple of days now so I thought it was time.I managed to get the first one out of the hole with out a hitch but the lower one wont budge..so I moved on to the next one and managed to break my snap on allen wrench off in it.Im gona try tommorow with some dental pics and try to get it out there and start again...I have the feeling Im gona end up doing some drilling on this before its over.My question about this is are all the pto's this mean to get off? Its obvious that my tractor just pretty well got drove to near its on death before I got it so I expect everthing will be this way with it and to this point it has been. Maybe a good carbide bit with cutting oil is my best bet but any suggestions would be great...My thinking is once I get past this and the roll pins on the clutch It will all be gravy ...lol...
