    5300 Hydraulic system

    The tractor appears to be all original. It is only used a few hours every year around my mother in laws place and I have never noticed anything strange while using it. My father in law bought it sometime in the 90's and I never heard him complain about anything.When the hydraulics quit working...

    5300 Hydraulic system

    Thanks for the advice. When the hydraulics quit working someone posted the drive gear had probably sheared. I removed the pump and pulled on the drive gear and it came out of the pump where it had sheared. I just removed the front cover of the pump a few days ago and saw the metal shavings. I...

    5300 Hydraulic system

    I posted in late August about the hydraulics on a John Deere 5300 quit working. The drive shaft was sheared and after removing the end cap from the hydraulic pump there was some metal shavings inside the pump. My concern is some of these may have entered the hydraulic system. I am going to flush...

    John Deere 5300 hydraulic pumps

    My serial number falls in the range of pump #RE40444 and that is the same number stamped on the pump so that is what I will purchase. I am not sure where he came up with 7 pumps but I understand needing the serial number to get the correct parts. My mind was just wondering what was different...

    John Deere 5300 hydraulic pumps

    Sorry for any confusion. I had an earlier post about the hydraulics not working and the drive gear shaft was sheared so I thought I would start a new post since I was asking about the difference in pumps. I was just wondering why Deere had changed pumps and what the difference in pump mounting...

    John Deere 5300 hydraulic pumps

    I was looking at the John Deere parts catalog and it is showing there was two different pumps used depending on serial number. Out of curiosity, I was wondering if anyone knows what the differences in the pumps were? If I am looking at the schematic correctly the external pump components are the...

    John Deere 5300 hydraulic problems

    Thanks to everyone for the help. I was able to sleep last night after Leon posted there was no pump located in transmission. I removed the pump this morning and the drive gear shaft was sheared. Is this something that could be rebuilt or would a new pump have to be ordered? I did some search for...

    John Deere 5300 hydraulic problems

    Thanks for the replies. Is there a pump in the transmission housing that pumps oil to the main oil pump mounted on engine? The reason I ask is I disconnected the input line (or what I thought was the input line) from the main pump and started the tractor but no fluid pumped out of it. Forgive me...

    John Deere 5300 hydraulic problems

    Front end loader, three point lift, and steering suddenly quit working today. I checked the suction screen and it was clean. I was wondering if there were some simple things I could check for. I do not have a repair manual but would be willing to get one if I could determine the repair would not...

    Massey Ferguson 135 clutch

    Thanks for the picture Sam. I do not have that tool but made the one from the I&T service manual I have. I read your post several times David and things are making more sense. The height does not have to be exact as long as all three fingers are the same if I am thinking correctly. You can...

    Massey Ferguson 135 clutch

    I just bolted the clutch assembly back to the flywheel. I am not sure if I put the pto clutch on the correct way. The manual says install the clutch with the drive hub in. Is there a way to tell if it is correct with out taking it back a part? Also I have seen to adjust pto fingers anywhere from...

    Massey Ferguson 135 dual clutch

    I split the tractor this morning and the pto clutch disc was in pieces. The transmission clutch was in decent shape but I am going to replace it also. The drive plate had 3 broken ears (not sure of the proper term) below the bolt holes so I am going to need to replace it also. What else should I...

    Massey Ferguson 135 dual clutch

    Thanks for the response. I am taking into consideration that it may be better to go ahead and replace the transmission clutch disc but if it appeared good I was wondering if it was possible to adjust everything corrrectly using the old one. Everything appears straight forward but I am trying to...

    Massey Ferguson 135 dual clutch

    I need to replace the pto clutch disc but the transmission clutch seems to be working fine so I would not like to replace it. The shop manual I have says a new 11" disc is required to adjust release lever height and then the old transmission disc can be reinstalled. Is there a way I can set the...
