Pulled the cover off the top of the trans, everything looks good..Started it, let it get warm,o strange noises from that area. I am starting to think its somewhere in the clutch housing. Tractor also seems to have more vibration that normal.Engine was overhauled this summer with a new crank pulley. I did an inframe, so I didnt look at the clutch.Is it possible to have a vibration at that end.. Either way between the rattle and the vibration something is wrong..Have to start somewhere. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! Joe [Reply]   [No Email]

Figuring that might be my noise. Ordered new shaft and pump today start there with the easy stuff. Next it will get split. Thanks   [Reply]  [No Email]

I decided to pull it back out some to spin the pump by hand to feel for any play. Anyways, I could not get the shaft back through the pump,it got hung up,is their a bushing on the other end? Regardless I am going to have to split it to figure out where this noise is coming from..I know its not in the trans,so maybe I should start with a split at the clutch? Thanks for all your help, if you were closer I would pay you to do it. Thanks! Joe   [Reply]  [No Email]
