1960 Select O Speed Manual?

Hello all,

I am new to the forum, and this is my first post! There seems to be a lot of great information on this site and I've been greedily gobbling up information. I have inherited my grandpa's 1960 671 with the Select O Speed Transmission. It's in remarkably good shape and is a great workhorse for around the farm, so I'd love to keep this thing running.

My question:

Mine is the earlier 1960 Select O Speed with the [b:13585be1fe]overrunning clutch[/b:13585be1fe]. I would like to buy a service manual for this transmission, but it appears that most of them are for the later direct-drive clutch models in the 2000 and 4000 series tractors. Does anyone know if the service manual listed on this site will cover my transmission?

Thank you for your help!
 
The only separate S-O-S manual is the "supplemental" manual for the 2000/4000 series S-O-S transmission, which is the DDC version of the transmission which was also retrofitted into a number of earlier '01 tractors.

The original Ford service manual for the '01 series, as well as the I&T FO-20 aftermarket service manual, both cover the original ORC version of the S-O-S transmission.
 
If you are not sure if your trans is an ORC or DDC post the
numbers on the side of trans.
My '59 gold demo has a DDC trans that was switched out in the
exchange program in '65.

The numbers stamped on the front/upper part of transmission near the starter say:

671
112304

But that just leads me to the model and year of the tractor, I suppose.

The following raised numbers are located just behind the inching pedal and might be the transmission S/N?

312259 AO
CWC
*8279*
 

The Servic? manual from this site is very good and covers both versions of the SOS. I used it to get me through a complete overhaul. I learned
more about the SOS than I really wanted to know!
