If it isn't one thing it is another. Has anyone ever tried to remove the pitman gear from the top of the steering post. I want to insert a brass washer in the to take up some of the space so that the adjuster can not lift off the holding bolt. It is not close to doing that but it a case of while I'm in there. I have tried a puller but space does not permit the type I have to be used. Any suggestions would be apreciated. MR B.

You have wear and tear down below in the lower spindle probably. "Puller" is correct on how to remove the steering sector gear, A2123R. I pulled mine off about two weeks ago.

Jack up the tractor so the wheels will rotate with your hand. Remove the large nut on top and turn it upside down and screw it down until it is flush with the top of the spindle. I laid a brass hammer on top of the shaft and whacked it with a two pound hammer. No damage done and the shaft dropped out of the gear. It was not too tight.

Credit Mike Alyward with this suggestion. It works.

I bet it would be quite a chore to get the shaft all the way out wouldn't it? By all rights the lower bushing is what should be replaced as I see it. I suspect you would have tip the tractor pretty high to slide it out all the way, Has there been anyone that has done that you know of? Thanks, Mr B.

Mr. B, I saw a picture of this in a 60 service manual. Best I remember(which aint too good lately) the tractor was at about a 45 degree angle. You need a pretty stout overhead structure to support it. Good Luck

I seem to remember reading some were that you jack the front of the tractor up till the front wheels have very little weight on them and place a block of hard wood on the steering shaft and give it a solid rap and the weight of the front wheels and the blow should break it loose.

Thanks Puller, I will try that as soon as I get the rear wheels back on. I wouldn't chance raising it while on the stands. I've tried prying but beyond atempting to hook a puller to it nothing else. I need to complete the left brake O.H. yet and can try it then. Mr B.
