I was teddering with my 6610 the other day and when I turned a corner and had a little driveline chatter, I heard a pop, and the PTO just
stopped and the tractor quit pulling. It has Dual Power with an 8x2 crashbox transmission, so I am guessing I lost the splines on my
PTO/Hydraulic shaft. Is there a way to check this before splitting? It has the aux hydraulic pump on the cam gear, so the hydraulic remotes
and 3pt still operate, but anything that requires low pressure hyd. is not working, and the last clutch I put in a few years ago, the splines
were shiny and had some wear on both the hub and shaft, so that is why I am pretty sure this is the problem. I have the service manual and
am going to start reading through it. I know it requires a double split, one at the engine to replace the splined hub and one at the
transmission to pull the PTO shaft out from the rear. Should I just go with the split at the engine and check there? It's an open station,
so once I get the stands setup, it's only about a 4 hour job.
