I have two 706's. A gas and a diesel. Auger and chore tractors now. I can't necessarily remember a clunk noise when shifting the TA, but that just maybe a characteristic of your tractor. If the TA holds in both high and low range I would say just go with it. Probably not much you can do without splitting the tractor to fix a clunk noise that may not be a problem anyway. The labor to split the tractor is as much as a rebuilt TA. Keep running it until it doesn't move. The clunk might not even be the TA. Could be something worn in the drive train shows up when the TA is shifted. One of my 706's I use only in low range as high range slips. Something internally is leaking when in high range, probably the TA. I might split it someday, but for what I use it for low range is just fine. On the steering and brakes, yes, they both go to manual steering and brakes as soon as the engine shuts off. You should still be able to manually steer the front wheels. It will be hard and slow. The brakes also have no power assist provided by hydraulic pressure, but here again you can pump them up with your foot and have brakes as a safety feature. If someone has modified the multi control valve (MCV) by taking the little plastic check ball or plug out then the brakes probably will not pump up. Most all tractors have no power steering and brakes when the engine shuts down.

Today's Featured Article - The Day Mom Drove the 8N - by Brian Browning. My Dad was wanting to put in a garden but couldn't operate the 8N and handle the old horse drawn plow he had found and rigged up to use with the tractor. Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
