Farmall Regular - PTO Extension Adaptor system

SweetFeet · Nov 18, 2011

Hi Guys. Got a question for you from my husband. On a Farmall Regular PTO Extension system, does the pto extension shaft just run through that bearing/collar inside the pto shield... or should there be some kind of bushing on the shaft were it goes through there? Attached a pic of the bearing/collar part that I'm referring to.
THANKS!

Just like that. Nothing holds it in except the shaft is locked to the output shaft on the tractor.

No, there is no bushing on the PTO shaft. The bearing rollers ride directly on the PTO shaft. I put a PTO extension on my Regular, several of the bearing rollers were damaged from rust as well as the area of the shaft the bearing rides on. I turned the shaft end for end so that the bearing now rides on a smooth undamaged section of the shaft. I spent $15 and bought some 1/2" precision ground hardened shaft and made new rollers for the bearing as I figured a new bearing would be hard to find and very expensive!

Thanks Nebraska Kirk. Will tell The Boss what you did. We're restoring a '31 Regular, and want her to have as many bells & whistles as possible. Will be a long-term project due to the ol' time & money factors.
