Hi all!
I just got my Farmall super A 1952 splitted at the transmission. I need to replace the leaking seal front seal. While I am here, I thought I would replace all the bearing and gasket accessible from here to make sure leak stop and maybe reduce the noise of the transmission.
I am now stuck at removing the top gear shaft and bearings. Seal housing and clutch shaft have been removed. I also got the pin on that small gear at the back, for the reverse I think.
I cannot figure how to remove those bearing. There is no place for a puller, and I am afraid of damaging anything if a start tu pull an pry anywhere.
Could anyone give me an advice on how to dismantle this thing, I could not find anything online!

Thank you!
 
Its been my experience to replace the in-put bearing along with the seal and it has always made the tranny quieter. But i have never replaced any other bearings as that bearing does support the main shaft. Does that bearing have any play if so it sure will quiet the tranny a bunch.
 

I have been able to remove the front bearing using a puller in to the circlip groove.
I fell some play with my hand at both front and rear bearing of the upper shaft inside the transmission. I can see some rust on the front bearing. There was water in the trans oil before I flushed it with diesel. It sure not will not be bad to replace them!

At this point, my understanding is that I need to remove the PTO housing and the rear cover of the transmission to replace all the bearing, I am right?
 
Replaced ALL the bearings in a 130 last year to try to quieten it. Waste of my time and money. Still noisy as H!!!.
Also IIRC the differental has to come out before the bottom shaft can be removed. Bottom shaft is last out and first in.
Check the oiler gear also. A&I (I think) has steel gear to replace the aluninum one.
 
Finally I replace both top and bottom shaft front bearing, with the seal and gaskets.
The seal was definitely bad, i could see and air gap.

The transmission is not quieter, but the leak is gone!

I decided not to waste time and money on a noise problem that doesn't bother me!

Thanks!
