Thanks Mike for the hint. Got the clutch lever unhooked. The nut was finger loose so came apart ok, springs are on top and retained. The reason for this activity is it is dripping fresh gear oil. So I squirted some gear oil in the groove in cover #35. And, sure enough the oil was running down side of trans case and on to floor. I am sure the ecofreeks in WA state will not like that, as someday tractor goes to my son who lives in WA. I am trying to get problems fix before he gets it. Those nice pix are of what I do NOT have, the oil return hole just past 6oclock.
I am thinking of drilling a 5/16 or 3/8 hole a little past the 6oclock position in the inner plate part of #35 and in the gear cover and filling the drain groove in the big part of #35 with JB weld. What do you guys think of that?
One other thing to do was to work over the mag. Forgot what a pain it is to get bottom bolt out. And I am going to put some new Evergreen gauges in it, too. Will check back later, probably do the mag first. Thanks all.
