Tom, I have a 38 B Long Frame that got accepted for a recent Expo, so I know a little about them and will bump a few questions and let other more knowledgeable persons help you further. Im more of an electrical man, but those tractors dont have much need of that. 2) Have you removed the lower oil line off the bottom of the governor ??? You get at it by removing the crank case top cover. It HAS to be removed to remove the governor. If the governor weights or pins are worn, I sure would replace them, and those gears are on a press fit. 3) If you remove the fan shaft to get at the end bearings, theres an O Ring seal which seals the outer tube to the governor flange. The fan shaft/governor bevel gears are set for mesh, heel, and backlash by adding or removing the shim gaskets BOTH under the governor mount flange and the big end bearign cap on the bevel gear end. Thats a critical fit, so as to avoid whine and gear noise. The bevel gears are a matched set. 5) To replace those axle seals, its done from the INSIDE, inside the big bull gears and is a big job which I have blocked out of my mind lol. 6) I replaced my reduction gear cover and there were a couple dowell pins which sure help lining things up and it wasnt a bad job. There are a couple bearigns I would replace if I were in there and I think I added some oil back in when finished. 7) I had no power lift but have an extra one on anotehr 37 B I have. Sorry this is all I have for you, but Im getting awful forgetful as to what I did after a year or two passes. Good Luck, Ol John T Nordhoff
