MF50EX lost rear drive

[Todd Wiscal]

Hi, I have a 50EX skip loader 4wd with shuttle transmission. Recently while under load, I heard a loud snap in the rear of the tractor. Lost power to the rear axle. front wheel drive works fine. I do not have a service manual. Jacked up the rear and I don't believe the problem is within the rear differential. Is there coupling between the transmission and rear end within the housing that may have broken? Thanks in advance for any assistance.

A little late, but just in case. It may be a replaceable, sliding coupler between the differential and the transmission, if it's like our 30B loader. If there's a round cover plate on the left or right side of the trans case by your heel, that should provide you with a look. You may have to drain out some oil first below level of the cover plate, or tilt the machine.
