Easy to get the entire PTO out of a IH 986. Drain the hydraulic oil. Just remove it as an entire assembly. There is a row of bolts that hold it to the tractor. I usually use an engine hoist on a bolt close to the top. Then a 4 foot piece of pipe over the PTO shaft. The pump/clutch hangs out toward the front. So this makes it want to tip forward. You need the pipe to tip it back or you can break the suction tube. Pull it back a little and then start to tip it as soon as you can the suction tube is lower the housing at the back.
The pump, clutch, piston and all comes out as an entire unit. They are fairly easy to work on. I would go through it while I had it apart. The parts are not that high.
Here is a link to a post about how to repair the unit.
