Greetings

I am new to the forum. I have a JD 730 Diesel #7324711. The flywheel is loose and the crankshaft end play is excessive. The original flywheel was replaced many years ago with one of those "tapered cone" style flywheels. I know about the endplay thrust washer pack behind the flywheel that will also need to be addressed. What I would really like is to come into contact with an individual(s) who I could talk to about this tractor. I grew up with this tractor on a farm in Chelsea Michigan. I am fifty seven and mean no disrespect to the web/chat culture but voice to voice is a preference. I know a fare amount the tractor already but would like hear from others who may have already been to the road that I now find myself on. Thank you.
 
Allen Machine Works in Tennessee makes the taper lock flywheels and hubs. That is probably the flywheel that your tractor has.Allen Machine is very helpful with step by step instructions.They can make you a new hub that will fit correctly.
 
Can't help you,but that's awful close to the serial number of the one I had. Mine was 7325669. It belonged to another guy just east of town here in Sheridan Michigan before I got it.

The two guys I knew who were gurus on those things are both gone now. Derwood Herald here in Sheridan and Ed Hansen in Greenville.

Wish I could help you.
 

Two thrust washer sets. Inside and outside. The outer can look good and the inner washer worn to bits with the result being sloppy crank endplay .
