    550 split

    How do I know if I need 5 discs vs the 6 clutch discs for the pto? Any suggestions on where to get parts for this? I have seen a couple of pto clutch and seal kits on eBay.

    550 PTO Issue

    I adjusted the clutch so it would SNAP. I am concerned about the condition of the clutch housing. Things seem amiss. I think I have some oil in there. There was some water that spilled out when I removed the cover. The clutch seems to be coated in grease/oil kind of hard to tell. Can I clean it...

    550 PTO Issue

    I have a question for you all about the amount of grease and where it should be. I too am experiencing difficulty engaging my pto clutch (won't snap into place) how do I tell if the grease tube is bad? I had a fair amount of black grease. Things were visible I could see the pto clutch and all...

    How far should I go....?

    I took apart the hydraulic assembly on my new 550 today. The reservoir was leaking into the trans. The leak was a bad gasket at the pump inlet. While I have things apart what else should I do? Should I take the pump apart?

    I would like to clean it up a bit. Don't need it to be spotless but getting some if the gunk off would be nice. Should I pressure wash and degrease? dont mean to sound like a big time tree hugger but should I worry about where all the grease and oil goes when I wash it?

    new to me oliver 550

    Hello everyone First off thanks to everyone who gave advice in my last post. So I went and bought the 550 for $1800 delivered to my front door. She is obviously in need of some cleaning and a tune up/lube change. She runs pretty rough particularly after the bumpy ride home So I think part of...

    Should I buy an oliver 550?

    Is it safe to assume that if the hydraulic fluid drains while the tractor is not running the problem is the plate rather than the pump? Or is it more ambiguous than that? Does anyone have a picture of this area? Thanks for all the info and advice. E

    Should I buy an oliver 550?

    The tractor doesn't have power steering. I am unsure about the swinging draw bar I forgot to look at that. the loader is run from a front mounted hyd. pump. Do you think the 3 pt lift issue is a real red flag? If it is more than just a leaky plate am I looking at either an expensive or time...

    Hello All, This is my first post. Looks like there is a wealth of info here! I am considering purchasing an oliver 550. I have not seen it run yet, the owner who is a family friend says it runs nicely but he needs to do a little wiring on it, there seems to be a short in the wiring. It is a...
