Re: 1960 John Deere 440 crawler help

How should I go about getting parts and taking the shaft out. I see in the book it has a keyway woodruff keys that make have broke. How do I get to them drain the oil?

Re: 1960 John Deere 440 crawler help

It stops grinding when I push in the clutch then starts again when I let the clutch out. Does that mean the clutch is still working and I need to look for something else?

Re: 1960 John Deere 440 crawler help

Took the top off the transmission. The shifting forks and gears all looked good. What should I do next? Do I leave the top off and turn the motor over to see if the input shaft is turning? Sorry for all the stupid questions I am as green as it gets with this
