Google Cofer Mfg in Kansas. Also try a pair of 'Bulldog' jacks bolted to the frame with a stiffener between them.

can make brackets to mount a trailer jack on each side of the engine. Mount jacks toward rear of engine. Make up a small trailer using casters with braces to go under transmission. The braces angle up and are bolted to rear end. A bottle jack is set on trailer to support rear of tractor. One person can work the rear section back by pushing on each tire.

When I spilt a 856 IH to do a clutch for a guy I built a set of stand from some heavy angle iron. Drill 2 holes to match hole in the frame. Welded a flat plate on the end to weld a nut to for some all thread to go through for height adjustment. I ground the ends of the all thread to a rounded point to match a couple of scrap piece of aluminum I spot face drilled for the all thread to set in. I was working on a dirt floor. Used the angle iron on the rear of the tractor. Put down a piece of plywood for the floor jack. Unbolted the front of the tractor, roll it away with the floor jack and repaired the clutch.
