Hey Brownie 450, you sort of hit it right on the head. I removed the heavy plate that I call the deck plate(its the plate where your feet rest when your setting on the tractor. Anyway, I removed the deck plate so I could see in There with no restriction and I must say it is impressive how they used to do things. The problem is that a roller from a roller bearing fell out somehow, dropped slightly down into a gear and pitched it between the gear it fell out of and the one below it which cracked the roller. Either the big or small piece of the roller shot across to the 2nd and 3rd sliding gear and chipped a toothed out of the 2nd gear. Surprisingly, the chipped tooth in the gear is not the clunk. The clunk is coming from the bearing (or what's left of it) and with the roller that is missing, each time it comes to the same location on the shaft, it clunks. As it turns out, the clip or keeper ring I referred to in my original post is neither. Its actually the backer plate of the roller bearing that ended up being the problem. And, as a bonus, I could see it before I went through all the work of (unnecessarily) removing the deck plate. And another incentive to buy yet more tractors and claim I enjoy using them, that gear tooth that is chipped, costs about $620.00 plus shipping and was caused by a roller that probably cost.$.20. Gotta love it, LOL. I really want to thank the folks who took the time to read my post cause I really needed some input. And I want to thank the folks who took the time to reply to my post and send me emails with suggestions. As for my Tractor, I can't wait to get her back together so my wife can complain about how much it costs to run and how little we make with the crops we plant. So I need to get back to work. Until next time. Thank you, living the dream in Northern Michigan, TNT!
