Hi, I posted a couple of days ago about trying to get that little odd shaped 4 bolt hole coupling that goes on the trans to the clutch shaft. After about 20 hours of trying no way can I get that coupling on. It goes up into place but when I try to put the 2 bolts in that goes in the coupling to the clutch end of the shaft the bolts hit the end of the trans housing so no way will the bolts go in. Using the old washers so clearance with them should be ok. Have turned the coupling every which way. I seem to have the shaft that goes through the clutch to the flywheel that the coupling attaches to in as far as it can go. The trans end has never been moved so that should be ok. Would anybody have a picture or something showing how that coupling goes on or of it on and in place? Maybe something showing the measurements of the space from the trans to the clutch shaft? They say a picture is worth a thousand words but I will take any help of any kind I can get. I am about ready to take a hammer to it and junk the tractor new clutch and all lol. Spent too many hours on my back playing with it now. Thanks for any help anybody can give me Terry

I doubt you have the shaft all the way into the pilot bearing. Take the pressure off the plate by using bolts in the threaded holes and get the plate centered. Oh and yeah, after 20 hours, take a break. It will seem a lot better if you walk away for a while.

Thanks Cowman that pic looks like the way I remember it looked like when I took it apart. I do think by the looks of it the shaft is not all the way in. Right now that coupler will just fit inbetween the 2 shafts. Looks like there should be all kinds of room for the coupler to fit up in there. Thought there was when it came apart. I only worked 10 hours on it yesterday the other 10 split up between Thursday and today so had a bit of a break. I did walk away a few times but came back to the same problem. I hate to give up on something till its done, guess need to learn to take a longer break. Thanks again Terry

Cowman: This problem you are currently addressing is not my problem - it is Terry's. But, I wanted you to know how helpful I think you are to the boys on this site. I have seen it over and over again. Glad you are here with us. Thanks for all you do. mike

 Would Second That in reply to City-Boy McCoy, 09-24-2006 15:37:35  
I would have to agree with that. I don't post very often on here simply because I don't know much about these old tractors just drove them a lot growing up on the farm and working on farms. I do stay in the shadows and read a lot on here though. With the amount of posts Cowman answers there is a real wealth of information there. For guys like me that decide to get into these old tractors and run into problems we really appreciate all the help we can get. Wait till I start fixing up my SC then there will be questions lol.

Terry, I'm not sure, but I think you may need to rotate that center plate 1/4 turn. that way the assembly will be a little shorter.
