I have to split my super-c to replace the ring gear. Any suggestion on the best way to support the tractor that makes it easy to re-
assemble. I checked the archives on this problem which was very helpful. Any suggestion would be appreciated.

Thank you fellows for the advice. Hugh, it is a narrow front end and a 123. I will print off the replys and keep them for reference as I will have to build something to handle this part of the job. Glad I took the time to ask for advice instead of tearing into it.

Regardless of what you do to support the tractor, it's essential to have a smooth, flat, strong floor underneath. Makes moving and aligning possible, even easy.

Whatever you do, make sure it has wheels. The simplest stand is two vertical channels with an axle as Hugh described. Simplest is often the best solution.

The wheels should have a wide track, at least 4' to provide stability to the tractor. Add cross-bracing so the stand doesn't collapse.

A stand like this will work for both wide and narrow fronts. Wedging the wide front is good insurance, but not necessary with a sturdy wide-track splitting stand under the rear.

Don: Is the SC wide or narrow front. My brother has a device he uses on his narrow front. Two pieces of 6" chanel iron, bolted to cultivator mounts on each side, going towards floor just under clutch housing. Those clamp to a light trailer axle with wheels. This makes entire front end stable and he can roll it away by himself. He just puts a bottle jack under clutch housing.

On wide front tractors I use a hardwood pallet with blocking, under each side on front axle and under back of engine. I use tiedown straps, tie it solid to pallet. Put wedges in front axle pivot. With a C-123 engine I built a wooden cradle so edges of block take weight. I use a bottle jack under clutch housing and a pallet jack to move the front end on the pallet. I have split tractors as large as 560 and put them back together using this system all by myself. I've also split a big articulated tractor at the pivot, removing the whole rear end with wheels, on a pallet.

On that small of a tractor i use to just use our cherry picker on the ft. and a jack stand under the tube . But now i had a 4 ton cherry picker i also had made up brackets for my one splitting stand for the A thru the C . With working on the bigger tractors then getting in a small tractor it was like working on a lawn mower , the big thing is becareful make sure that everything is blocked , chained so it will not move or fall on ya and when going back together never force it and never pull it together with the bolts. When everything is correct it will SLIDE together.
