DrLoch - A photo of the brackets on yours would be great. I am picturing the JD brackets being a lot thicker.

I will check the frame rails for welds/cracks. If I find that both or one frame rail is cracked, are they repairable?

The rear bracket is probably what it is minus the fact that it was probably torched at one point because the j-brackets are not there.



Thanks

The particular machine has nothing on the back. There is a hitch, counterweight and PTO. That makes sense though say for a backhoe to tie into the loader mount but I would assume the steel to be thicker for a backhoe.

Hi all. I hope someone can help me out here on two unknown steel plates I noticed on a 450C loader that I was looking at today. The plate is on both sides of the machine below the battery box and below the hyd control valve compartment. Appears to bolt to loader frame and rear housing. Anyone know w...

I have a straight 450 with the HLR.

Leonard Layton,
Do you know if this threads all the way out or like FL450B said, is there a set screw and 1/4 turn to remove?

I am in the process of getting in my hlr trans to redo clutch packs. I have the motor out and almost ready to remove clutch housing but I do not know the best way to remove the hydraulics on the right side (brake side) that goes through the housing. It is real tight between the housing and frame rail.

Is the pinion gear for each clutch pack notched for key to lock to the shaft?

lp14255,
Yes, I do have the parking brake lock.

I am parting out a good running JD 450 crawler with outside blade. Transmission and steering clutches are bad. Transmission (HLR) will not go into reverse, pressure is good. Steering clutches are not working. Sheet metal and badges are all there. Housing are all good, no broken bolts or cracks. Anyo...

Anyone know what parts will cost to rebuild all the clutch packs in the HLR transmission on a '66 JD 450?

1966 JD 450 with outside blade. Needs steering clutches on both sides. Will NOT go in reverse. Motor starts and runs. I have the blade, fuel tank/hyd. tank/battery console off machine right now. I don't have time right now to fix. Reasonable offers. For pics go to: http://www.jdcrawlers.com/messageb...

[/quote] #1 is the HL-R powershift transmission. Very rugged and also, very expensive to work on. Often, worn HL-Rs work fine when cold, and as they heat up, come to a dead stop. With some machines, it may take an hour or running before the problem shows. Many - when they get like this - go to aucti...

JSVice, I had no problem lifting that section off of my 450 with my FEL (1300# Lift Cap.). Starting to lift that high in the air though made the back end lite.

Here are the part numbers that I am expecting to replace.

R32692
R57345
RE23000
R90644
R33246
R27789
R46218

I have to figure out the quantity of each part number still.
