I finally got around to removing the round cover and the PTO lever. Drained the fluid out and removed the cover, found the lever and arm to appear to be in good condition but didn't know exactly how this thing operated. There is a rod with two ridges in it coming from towards the tranny that appears the end of the shift lever fits between. The shift lever has wear marks on the end where it is flat that makes me believe this is how it shifts the PTO in and out. I also see a "U" shaped metal bracket around that as well as all the other shafts in the case which has a spring at the bottom just inside the drain plug that I have no clue of what it is for but it doesn't appear to be involved with the shift lever arm. The manual my neighbor has doesn't speak too much to PTO shifting problems and fixes other than it says that a problem there means the tractor will need to be broke in two at the back of the tranny. I can't see anything broke in the housing and I tried to stick my fingers in to see if I could manually move this rod with the ridges or groove in it but couldn't move it even prying lightly with a screw driver. Does this look like a break in two problem?

The engine on this tractor, a 1937 John Deere "B", had been stuck for 2 years before he gave it to me. This last spring (1999) I hauled the tractor to our 2 acre lot in St. Libory Nebraska where it joined my antique machinery collection, at that time a 1929 Caterpillar T
