Well after nearly three years in the shop I finally got my SA back to gether, painted and started up. I bought this tractor in salvage condition so I didn't get to drive it far until after I had completely been through it. I finally got to drive down the road far enough to get it warmed up real good and as luck would have it, the tranny is telling me it's very tired. I know these old tractors had a fairly loud whine to the transmissin but this one is extra loud and more of a vibrating grinding noise. It does it in all gears and louder with the PTO engaged. In neutral it's quiet. So does this sound like bearings or gears or maybe backlash? Sure hate to have to split it again but at least I get to work on it some more.
