Hello all, have a question about rear axle housing interchange for a 1967 5000? This is for a gas 8spd tractor. The ear that the lower three point arm attaches to has been broken off. Will any 5000 axle housing work? Looks the same as my diesel 8 spd 1972 tractor. Found a rear end in a junk yard that looks the same but they thought it might have been a 4000 with SOS tranny, will that possibly work? Any good way to id a rear axle? Thanks, Mike
 

4000 rear end won't work.
All you need is the outer axle assembly for the side thats broke, these are all the same but the center housing for a SOS tractor has different gearing than 8 spd models.
 
Destroyed, just to clarify when you say they are all the same housing are you meaning all versions of the 5000, or do you mean the 4000?s axle
housing will work also? Online parts numbers look the same except for the 2 letter suffix. Thanks, Mike
 

None of the 4000 rear axle parts will fit a 5000
Outer axle assemblies are 5000 SOS and 8 spd are the same
5000 center housing for SOS has different gearing than one for the 8 spd trans.

FYI when checking at salvage yards axle components from a 5600 will also fit a 5000
