Transmission output shaft shims

[yellowcrawler]

I was at the John Deere dealer looking for output shaft shims for my late 440. (Fits between the front bearing and the output, pinion shaft.) Initially I only found the 0.002" shims, M2056T, so I asked him to check the other numbers (discontinued) for any subs. I was prepared to buy 20 0.002" shims to meet my needs @ $0.55 each.

He came up with AT146268, SHIM KIT ASSORTMENT for $11.25. Checking into other parts lists, it works for all 440's and 1010's and early 350's. May work on the earlier transmissions also. I received it Monday, it is a good assortment and fits well.
