Last week bearing went down on upper PTO shaft while rolling hay. Chewed up all the rear pto gears. Replaced the upper and lower gears. Installed the proper shims(according to manual) and checked the endplay and torque required to turn shaft, but get lots of noise from pto at idle. Smoothes out at higher rpms.
At teardown we did not have the shim in front of the bearing on the upper shaft, but manual says to be sure to install those. Thought that might be the difference in noise.
No noise at idle prior to the bearing going down.
Any ideas?
