Torsional Isolator Deere Straight 350

[Coynebug]

I have pulled my dozer apart last weekend to fix a seal leak between the motor and transmission and i found a broken spring on my torsional isolator. I have been reading multiple reviews on this part but do they still make parts for this item and is this isolator a decent one? It is a 4 spring system. Can this be upgraded to the C or D isolator? See Link below. Everything appears to be in great shape except the broken spring. https://www.dropbox.com/s/60rm0i27o4tns ... 7.jpg?dl=0


Also i noticed the shaft in the front of the transmission had some play in it. Can i just replace the front bearing by the seal or do i need to dig further into the transmission?

Does anyone know where i can get a good shop manual for my straight 350? For a decent price?

Thanks

That style isolator seems to be less problematic than the next later style. There are no service parts for it, but I have a replacement disc available, would have to do some research on the subject again.
Yes, you can upgrade to the late isolator, but you need to change flywheel to do so, and currently the isolator itself is obsolete, and I do not have my replacements done yet, but getting close.

I have been looking for manuals for this machine and i have a T handle for the blade and all the manuals i have found for this machine show 2 levelers for the blade. Is this an alteration that someone made?

I have been researching the forum and the web and i have been unsuccessful to date finding parts for this isolator. I would like to tear this isolator apart and order the disk, springs and anything else i may need. Is this something i can get threw your shop? Is the upgrade isolator unavailable or are the parts for my isolator unavailable? Is there any way to get a diagram for this?

Thanks Lavoy
