I'm considering removing the PTO from my H. I've long since stopped using it for real work, its just my tractor ride tractor now and I'd like to build a custom platform on the back. Removing the PTO will give me an additional 8" of space. I'll save it in case I want to put it back. From the drawing it looks pretty simple, just pull the unit out and fabricate a cover and seal for the opening in the rear end. Any worries with this plan? It looks like the transmission counter shaft is supported by a bearing so it should continue to operate properly without the PTO shaft in place.

You have it, just remove the PTO unit and replace with a block off plate / gasket /rtv. If you do not want to drain the oil you can park the tractor on a sufficient enough slope and remove and replace.
 
IH made a block off plate for PTO's, Doubt CIH/NH handles them anymore. Might try a salvage yard for one. They're in the parts book.
 
Make cover plate from 1/8 steel.I make em from 14 gauge or 1/8" when I remove the belt pulley drive/gearbox.
