steering clutch on 2010

[vailvalley59]

Do I have to remove parts of the JD loader valve body fender mount to remove the left steering clutch on my 2010?? Will the clutch pack clear these fender mount parts? If things need to be removed--which ones? The rear of this machine has the mounting for a backhoe but no hoe. Thanks

I did my left clutch and dread the day i have to do the right one .... you have to remove the oil tank ..seat.. upper bracket to the hoe bracket .. track..sprocket..final drive pinon gear clutch drive shaft..upper cover and lever and presto you have the clutch out

...and by the time you do all of that you might as well remove the final.

I have done at least 5 of the steering clutches on my 3 2010s in the last 45 years and have NEVER removed a final yet.... dont see what you would gain
