Fargo,
You made your own luck. You've exercised your common sense! "Something's broke, let's take it apart and see if we can fix it." Back on the farm, we used to call this "plain old horse sense." In a throw-away society, everyone is geared to remove and replace the non-functioning higher assembly. You've chosen to find the offending individual part. I'll wager that you enjoyed doing it AND saved yourself some money. The men that I knew when I was a boy on the farm some 50 years ago, took great delight in being self-reliant and able to figure things out for themselves. They were great teachers and they taught me a lot about machines and the value of careful observation. Many of the folks that post on these discussion boards are the same way (you included). Everyone CAN make their own luck. My hat is off to you for relying on your brains instead of your pocketbook. I hope you enjoy your tractors as much as I enjoy the ones I repair for a friend. Jim
