My Farmall 230 has a front transmission seal leaking oil. This will require splitting the tractor and unhooking the drive shaft. The IT manual I have instructs me to remove the transmission cover. I can't see that this is necessary. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Marv

Thanks Gene and Hal for the information. I do have tractor stands and intend to use them. Any suggestions for unhooking the drive shaft. I understand the bolts are tapered. Marv

Yes they are when you roll it apart take off the nuts on either half and then i use a large piece of brass and hit the u-joint and it will come apart then you can roll tractor apart more to get the yoke off the input shaft.

I think when you pull the engine, the clutch and flywheel will come too. The clutch disc will slide off that splined shaft as you remove the engine leaving the shaft in place.

Make sure you use a clutch alignment tool or a short splined shaft off a junker when reinstalling the clutch. This will make it a lot easier when reinstalling the engine. If the clutch is close to rivets I would replace it or have it recovered. If the flywheel is rough I would have it ground smooth. Hal

You need to do as Gene suggested when splitting these tractors. Here's a website for splitting stands. Hal

You dont have to remove the cover on the A and B so i dont know why you would have to remove the one for 230 you just need something to support front and be able to roll the rear back unless you have a wide front then i would roll the front after placing wedges on the front axle so the engine cant tilt. I have stands that have casters so for me its easy.
