Tim: I cut tapered hardwood wegdges to lock up front axle pivot, then I place a hardwwod pallet under front axle extending back to just in front of clutch housing. I then block front pallet up two axle each side and another stack under oil pan. Then use rachet straps over axle and over engine, basically strapping front of tractor to pallet.
Lock brakes and place a bottle jack under clutch housing. Put a pallet jack in the pallet and jack both together just roughly a half inch. Then prepare the tractor for splitting. You can take that front end just about anywhere in shop, and when it come time you can roll the two halves back together single handed. I done tractors as large as 1066 this way.

I've even taken 20.8x38 tires loaded with chloride off the tractor in standing position strapped on top a pallet.
