They pulled power off the top of the center section for the Electrall as shown.

On the bottom side of the center section, it is curious that the cover has nearly the same bolt pattern as a SAE 6-bolt PTO. One axis is off by 1/8" as shown by a truck PTO gasket laid over the tractor IPTO cover plate. It would be no problem to order truck PTOs with the altered holes. Someday I will probably re-drill a SAE PTO to do just that. A 4" gear or sprocket attached to the IPTO coupling has enough clearance inside the tractor center section. I can't see why the cavity is so large. It could have been made smaller and added strength to the center section.<a href="http://s140.photobucket.com/albums/r16/Wardner/?action=view¤t=W-400043.jpg" target="_blank">

This is what it might have looked like. The nice thing about SAE PTOs is that they are all shiftable and some have two speeds.

This my current solution. It was alot quicker than tearing apart the tractor and finding the right gear combos plus setting up the correct gear lash. It is Balanced Head Mower drive chain driven from the rear PTO that is routed underneath the left axle with a shaft.

So the question is: Did IH plan on attaching an off-the-shelf PTO under the tractor?
