I opened my pto on my 300 utility to check the bands and there was a lot of wobble in the shaft. I pulled off the PTO unit and found the planet gear shafts (they weren"t pinned in place any more and are worn to the poit where they are not straight), a couple of the thrust washers (two are broken), and all the needle bearings (I assume there are supposed to be some between the shafts and planet gears - none left on mine) are shot, but the actual planetary gears and all other gears and bearings look ok - my questions:
1. Is the pto area by the bands supposed to be wet or dry because it looks to have seals to seperate it from the transmission area?
2. Are the thrust washers supposed to be installed so they press inward to keep the gears centered? mine face the other way and it does"t look like they do aything like that.
3. Where can I get new needle bearings and planetary gear shafts? Spent all morning looking!
4. What fluid do you use for the transmission fluid and (depending on question 1) for the rear pto area?
Thanks guys, this is about the last thing I have to finish to get this tractor done!
