    Picture of back end of countershaft in Ford 2000 4 speed

    Sean in PA, you are correct. It has an aftermarket power steering unit on it, but it works OK. I don t know what brand it is.

    Picture of back end of countershaft in Ford 2000 4 speed

    This is what I m looking at. The PTO shaft is supposed to plug into this hole. I tried again to send picture. I don’t know if I was successful are not. I sent 2 photos. I hope they we’re delivered. The end of the countershaft looks more like the place where a lathe would go, than a...

    Ford 2000 3 cylinder gas 4 speed PTO shaft

    Tractor Guru, you are probably right. If I was going to keep the tractor, I would probably put a new bearing, seal and sleeve on the old shaft and put it back together and run it until something happens, because it has been working like this for years. If something did happen I would know why...

    Ford 2000 3 cylinder gas 4 speed PTO shaft

    I ordered the PTO shaft, bearing, housing, seal and sleeve from Yesterdays Tractor. I think the shaft is the right one. I think the problem is with the countershaft, because the hole in it is too small in diameter, too shallow and it is tapered. I need to find some one who has a countershaft...

    Ford 2000 3 cylinder gas 4 speed PTO shaft

    Some one said the countershaft is probably too hard to drill out. What about having the tip on the PTO shaft machined to fit the hole in the countershaft? I am trying to send a picture of the end of the countershaft that I am looking at. This post was edited by Grtaylor on 07/20/2022 at...

    Ford 2000 3 cylinder Gas 4 speed

    The hole in the countershaft that the PTO is supposed to plug into is too small, too shallow and is tapered. The PTO shaft tip is not tapered and it is too big in diameter and too long. Can I drill the hole bigger to match the PTO shaft tip?

    Ford 2000 3 cylinder gas 4 speed PTO shafts

    I ordered a new PTO shaft. It has a tip or spigot(whatever you call it) on the forward end, as it should. The problem is, the tip will not plug into the back of the countershaft like it is supposed to. The tip is 1/2 inch in diameter and 1 1/4 inches long and is not tapered. The hole in the back...

    Ford 2000 3 cylinder Gas 4 speed

    Long term user: Thank you for your reply. I agree with you. I think the tip on the PTO shaft inserted into the countershaft keeps the PTO shaft straight and true when it is turning so it doesnt wobble and wear the bearing and seal. To me its like the clutch shaft plugging into the pilot bearing...

    Ultradog Guru, thank you for your reply. I have already split the tractor behind the transmission. There is no sign of the tip anywhere. Someone must have already removed it. I can see the hole in the back end of the countershaft and it is definitely tapered. I cant tell from the picture if the...

    Ford 2000 3 cylinder Gas 4 speed

    Ultradog, thank you for your reply. I thought no one was going to. I dont know how to describe it but if you look up the part number C5NN-A701K for the PTO shaft for a Ford 2000 4 speed it is 32 1/2 inches long, has 6 splines on the outside end and 10 splines on the inside end and also a tip...

    Ford 2000 3 cylinder Gas 4 speed

    Is the tip that sticks out on the forward end of the PTO shaft necessary? Mine does not have one. It works fine. Does not vibrate or make any more noise than normal. It leaks. Is there any connection with it leaking on the outside end and not having a tip on the forward end. I have replaced the...

    Ford 2000 3 Cylinder Gas 4 a speed

    es sir that is just like mine on the outside, but on the other end that plugs into the countershaft, the PTO on the 4 speeds has a tip on the end of it. The tip is about 1/2 inch long and about 1/4 inch in diameter and it plugs into a hole about that size in the countershaft. Mine doesnt have...
