Some questions on the Allis-Chalmers 611 Ltd:The 5th gear seems to go smooth then slip or jerk for a second, goes smooth, jerks, and repeats this. Reverse does it once in a while, and the other gears are fine. 1. How does the gear box work in one of these tractors? 2. Would I be able to fix it, or should I take it somewhere? I've rebuilt a couple Farmall tractors (transmission, engine, etc.), so I have some mechanical ability. When I mow (I have a two blade mower deck) I get a strip near the center of where the blades meet that's partially cut. I resharpened and balanced the blades, but it still happens. What's causing this and how can I fix it? Excuse some possible bad terminology: The "ball" joint that connects the left front wheel to the steering "tie rod" is loose and keeps falling out. I temporarily fixed it with mechanics wire, but I would like to really fix it. Any thoughts? Thanks. Longing in Long Lake
