Okay guys. I have to confess the large drum plug I have been searching for was Found . You know how it is when you put something somewhere so you don't forget? Well I had put it in the right side box in the tray with all my extra bolts and nuts where I fill the hydraulic oil. I feel so stupid.

Yes I did check with the yellow guys. I have run into that in the past. I'll try the 1 1/2 plug. Having a pump that is threaded for 2 different sizes is what got me to thinking. Did not realize there was 2 sizes.

apparently there is two different size large drum plus. I have a pump to go into 55 gallon drums and it has two different size threads for two large drum plugs. Sure enough it is the smaller of the two. Soooo I am on the look out for the right size drum plug. I have a 20 gallon drum and it is the sa...

okay I will retry this weekend when I go back to the ranch. The one I tried didn't fit but I may not have been holding my mouth right.

Well I checked with Deere and the AT13021 is not longer available. So I am on the search for a low mileage one.

I saw the pipe plug , but in the service manual they call it a large drum plug. Hope this is the same thing . will check with the deere house.

Thanks It is not the rubber plug so I will try the AT 13021. I could not find in parts catalog. Did I miss it ?? Thanks again.

Looking for the large drum plug to cover the trans pressure port. I misplaced the one I took out when checking pressure and leaving gauge for a month and half. It is a smaller size than a regular drum plug. there is no part # in the parts catalog. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I had the same issue with my 450c . I had no high range and would loose trans pressure going up hill. I have owned the unit about 8 years and have been using low range only. i asked on the forum and got not replies. I had read the way to check fluid was engine running. I WAS WRONG. turn engine off a...

I haven't noticed any bubbling like you are talking about with mine. I will be taking it out to the ranch with in the next month and I left the pressure gouge in it to watch the pressures. Hopefully I can determine the problem at that point.

Thanks for the reply. I figured there had to be a way. It's nothing other than an automatic transmission using bigger nuts and bolts. I've been in the automotive field for fifty years and play with bigger toys when I can or need to. Thanks again. Will let you know when I get into that project.

I have a 450ca. High range slips. went though the clutch adjustments. high range pressure is very low 55-60 psi. low range is good and reverse is a little lower than low range pressure but moves strong. The pressure readings for high being that low, problem looks to be in the clutch pack. With all t...

Finally got the final drive pinion gear back in. Ended up having to pull top cover off and pick up the brake band and drum to get back in place. Not near as easy as it sounds because the unit has the rear frame work for rippers and backhoe. Thanks for the suggestions and reading about the brake reas...

I am having a problem with getting the final drive pinion gear back in. Inner bearing doesn't want to slide on pinion gear because the splines on the inner drum on steering clutches does not want to line up. is there any way to get it all to line up without pulling the cover off the steering clutche...

Feels like the drive shaft has gone all the way back in but I will have to pull the hub for the steering clutches out to get the set screw to set in the pinion gear correctly. Just looks like about 1/2 inch maybe to get in place. So far I am getting ALL my credits at Hard Knock U, and come out a Hon...
