Hello all,
removed the shaft out of my parts tractor this evening without any trouble, went to remove the one out of the runner and no go, it come a little and it's like something is holding it in there, don't want to get too radical with it because i know it runs through the pump, any suggestions on how to get it out will be greatly appreciated, oh its a 1954 to- 30 thanks in advance

had the same thing with my 20. The shaft was twisted from running a brush hog over stumps and rocks. Had to pull the cover and cut the shaft off with a sawzall close to the pump, pull the pump and then drive the shaft out the opposite way. I had fashioned a makeshift puller and wound up breaking the brass carrier at the front of the pump. New shaft, $100; New carrier, $50. Working on a 50+ yr. old tractor in the sun on a 95 deg. day in Missouri, PRICELESS!

Would it make any difference if it will go back in, as far as it being bent or twisted?

Being able to move it back and forth some might make it easier to cut and, if it is not bound, there is probably less chance of damaging the pump bushing or cam. If you cut the shaft be sure to thoroughly clean the pump and its surroundings - doubly so if you do it through the cover.

Don, you are exactly right! When I replaced mine, I jammed the shaft in the bushing first, so had to cut it and then drive it out. In this case, he should be able to cut the shaft close, pull the pump, and simply slide the remainder out the other side. And yes, it took a lot longer to clean the case than to cut and remove the shaft. But it was worth it. I can't imagine what the repair bill would have been at the AGCO dealership....

Sounds like it might have to be split but you should take a good look first. Drain enough oil out to uncover the shaft and look at it through the dip-stick side opening - you'll probably need a good strong light and a mirror to check it out. If it is twisted or bent you will probably have to split the tractor but if it is stuck due to corrosion or gunk buildup you might be able to clean it up enough to get it out. You will need someone at the rear end to pull, push, turn, etc. while checking it out.

That doesn't sound good. Sounds like your pto shaft is twisted and if it is the tractor will have to be separated so it can be cut out.
