Ok, I can't figure out whats going on with this tractor so I'm turning to the internet.
I have a Farmall 656 Hydro. I've had it maybe 8 years, put around 8-900 hours a year on it. I've put 3 or 4 flex plates in it in that time. It keeps breaking the "spider" arms. My serial # ends in 44091. So the book calls for the "spider" flex plate and not the round one with springs. However on the flex plate there's a sticker that says "flywheel side". If I install it that way, the hub of the flex plate hits the charge pump before the tractor "comes together" where it is split. So I have been installing them backwards, but then the splines on the flex plate don't engage the charge pump shaft all the way.
I don't understand what is going on. My flywheel is stamped 396468 R2 L2, I think it's right. Are there different configurations of charge pumps? Is the flywheel wrong? What else could be going on?
BTW it has a D282 motor. Also the wear on the flywheel bolts is from after the flex plate broke.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
