    Got it all back together! Clutch works great which was the main reason to do this job. Straighten out a fuel leak and took it back to my buddies to cut. When I got there did not know I needed to prime the pump so opened the large nut on the flow control to let the bubbles out at idle and it...

    That thing is a pain in the butt. Was on the phone for an hour with the host going through part diagrams. I have stopped at local hydraulic shops here without any good results.Called a couple other suppliers too. Have been learning a lot about O rings! Gaining some good experience with tractors...

    Yeah...Im not arguing with you Hobo,Just giving to a try. looked on amazon and others to find a suitable solution and if this fails I will do that. I will look for a multi-pack of O rings to solve these problems. Had problems on a Quick Look for ones that size. This project will most likely...

    Falling behind getting progress noted. First Got the shaft back and it is a large improvement with only a couple mm out on both sides so hopefully that will be the end of that problem for many years. Did not get pics of that on halves assembly day. Forgot. Second, Got the halves back together...

    Talked with my local machinist yesterday. He hopes to have the shaft finished end of day. Looks like I will put it back together first of the week. I figured that PP was preset but I just thought I would ask. Got to make sure it's adjusted correctly for a long life.I will check the travel when...

    Hope I have it right! If so this can help others do it on the 3600. I could not find any images of the process. Hopefully I will get my shaft back tomorrow and get it snapped back together

    One other aggravating problem. I have misplaced the stinking tranny oil drain plug!! I have looked everywhere for that rascal! probably put on the floor and kicked it in a corner to be found in 5 years. :mad: Is that thing just a cast pipe plug you can get at the home store?

    Next and one question. Put the crank seal, pilot bearing flywheel and clutch together for hopefully to get the halves back together as soon as the clutch shaft is finished. My Question is do I need to do any adjustment to the pressure plate or is it good to go?

    OK.. First, Thanks DS. After seeing all of it that was great step by step directions! I am going to post up all the pics so if someone else wants to attempt this a few pics will help for the visual people like me. I did put a mark on the flange and the case so I would know which way the came...

    No doubt Hobo! The cost has risen faster than my income stream! I will take the time to look at that problem very soon. The problem at this moment because Im new to tractors is a part purchasing mistake. Take a look and see what y'all think about the tractor disk and the plate to see if I can...
