Needing help with Super C's transmission

While driving our Super C out of the field today, I was shifting from 3rd to 4th, and something broke. The tractor would not move. The left axle would not engage. We could get the tractor to drive by pressing the left brake, which caused the gears to drive as if the tractor was turning left.

Can anyone give me some suggestions before I start digging into it?

Thanks,

If it will move with the brake on it about has to be broken past the bull pinion, and about all that leaves is the bull gear or an axle.
 
I have posted to this type of question before. It is almost 100% certain to be a broken axle on the left side. I have done this repair several times. It isn't really hard, just time consuming, and parts are a little heavy, especially if your tires are loaded. You need to block up the tractor really well, take off the tire and wheel, then remove the axle retainer form inside the transmission housing.The last one I did through the PTO opening, but I wouldn't recommend that if you have big hands, or if the axle is held in by a snap ring, rather than a plate with two bolts. It is worth a try, as otherwise you will spend half a day removing the deck and all associated parts. After the axle is released, unbolt the axle housing, remove the bearing retainers from it, then press, beat, or otherwise abuse the axle until it comes out of the housing. The axle presses toward the outside, leaving the inner bearing in the housing, and bringing the outer bearing with it. You may find that it is a good time to replace axle bearings, and almost certainly the seals.

Post back if you need more help.
 
It will be more work but i would pull the tranny top off so ya can get to the parts easier. This will allow ya to inspect the right side as you know the tractor is 50 pluss yrs old and hard to tell what else is bad.
