Dick, I'm still not clear on this live vs. non-live PTO thing as it relates to the overrunning clutch. I have a 1973 Ford 2000, 3 cylinder gas tractor. The clutch has to be engaged for the PTO to run. It can be used when the transmission is in neutral, but the clutch has to be engaged. Here's where I'm not so sure about the live / non-live thing. If I use my bush hog without the overrunning clutch, the tractor is definitely pushed when going downhill. I wouldn't consider bush hogging my steep hills without the overrunning clutch. However, when I depress my clutch pedal, the bush hog immediately stops pushing the tractor. The PTO definitely is not permanently attached to the differential gears. So I don't get the live / non-live thing. I just know that if you can feel any pushing of your tractor when using your bush hog, you need an overrunning clutch. Good luck, Tom
