You will need a set of splitting stands. I know OTC used to sell a set specifically for that tractor. Most guys adapted them in future years to fit other tractors as the need arose. Alternitively if you intend to do much work on tractors I would suggest maybe making a set. I did this a couple of years ago used them once so far but know I will use them again. Main thing is to have the front half so the wheels that support the stand are of wide enough stance that all is stable. Also you will need a fine adjustment for height on both halves so you can get everything lined up when going back together. Forget about the loader more to the point take it off before doing this job. There are some hydraulic lines at the frame level that are probably under the loader brackets and typically the front half is what is moved away from the back. Setting up the clutch on a New Generation and Next Gen Deere takes a special jig. I think something could maybe be jury rigged but not sure. Maybe somebody with more experience here will shed more light. Most Important get a shop manual!!!! Don't know whether I&T will give you what you need. I have a Deere so I know mine shows the procedure. If this is the only major tractor work you intend to do hire the job done. To much equipment to buy/build for just a one time deal. HTH jt
