Going through the TA on the 560D I bought last fall, older dairy farmer that owned it "thought" the low side slipped on occasion. Have it all apart, high side parts all look like new and pressure plate has a rebuilt sticker on it. Disc facings are fine too, but the hub splines are worn more than I like so it will be replaced. On the low side the planet carrier and all gears look like new, ramp cage is the only thing that shows slight wear while the ramp rollers look new with NO flat spots at all, brass pins and springs are fine also. Are .010 oversized rollers available? If so I think the cage could be safely used again. Am also thinking of the 32 Sprague upgrade, may be more than it really needs. Planetary roller area measures 2.856, does it need machining for the Sprague to work correctly? I see exchanges only for the heavy Sprague. What little I drove the tractor last fall the TA never showed any signs of trouble, but I'm not taking any chances. Thanks in advance..
