Splitting a 686

Bkpigs · Feb 26, 2020

How do you support the engine and frame rails when you split a 686? My 300 and 504 I was able to keep a bolt int the back of the motor supporting the frame and the engine together. On the 686, there is no direct connection between the rear of the motor and the rear of the frame rails. Hopefully I won't have to split this tractor anytime soon, but I would like to know before hand. Thanks.

correction, my 504 is the same as the 686, just much smaller so I could split it by holding the front end by the top of the motor. Here is a picture of the 686 rails.

I recently split a 544. I set a jack on the cross member of the splitting stand to support the engine at the rear of the oil pan.

(quoted from post at 06:25:56 02/27/20) I recently split a 544. I set a jack on the cross member of the splitting stand to support the engine at the rear of the oil pan.

Hadn't thought about that. I was stuck on thinking about the stands that are individual pieces that bolt to the frame rail. Forgot about making one with a cross member joining the two sides.
