Removing that pilot bearing was a nightmare. I should have got some round stock and taken someones advice last week to pack with grease and pop out that way.

Anyway, changed pilot bearing, throw out bearing, pressrue plate, clutch disc, input shaft gasket and seal.

Tightened everything down and closed her up.

I had to use a come a long to get the two pieces back together. It wasnt as easy as just pushing them together.

Is there anything I missed before I start putting the other stuff on and attempting to crank?

Install a few bolts in bell houseing then put it in gear and depress the clutch and see iffin you kin turn over the engine or jack up a wheel and see iffin you kin turn it free'ly if not then it will haveta come back apart.

This is a dumb question but you mean the rear wheel right?

I only have to get one off the gorund and not both?

Then I put it in gear, press the clutch, and then have some one try and turn the wheel?

That is a check for the clutch?

One rear wheel will do it. Then you put it in gear, press the clutch,or block the clutch iffin by your self or have some one try and turn the wheel, it shoud turn free as long as the adjustment izz rite. If it does not pass this test then go no farther ya got a problem. If it pass'izz the next test will be a engine run'in test.

I would say since you said you used a com-a-long to put it back togeather that you will end up opening it back up. YOU NEVER DO THAT. It should slide back togeather at least all but the last 1/2 inch with no problem. I will guess you have messed up the clutch dis. and maybe some other parts. I would go ahead and give it a try but be ready for it not going in gear or if it does to take off and not be able to stop it by pushing the clutch down. The problem you had is the reason I take hem apart the way I do. Its a little more work to do it but its also easier to put the back togeather the RIGHT way.

The bellhousing end of the front half was slightly hihger than the front of the front end.

The bell housing of the rear end was slightly hihger than the back end.

Therefore I dont think they were perfectly aligned and why there I couldnt get it close enough to turn a bellhousing bolt and get it started.

The com-a-long just gave it that extra ummpph since I was out there by myself and the tractor ends were only lightly supeneded.

I used the input shaft as an alignment tool.

I will check out the clutch and see what i have got.

An input shaft that is so much as a 1/64 inch out of aliment when going back togeather can and will take of the center of a clutch disk and or the pilot bear/bushing. BTDT and learned the hard way and cost me a lot of $$ because of it.

"I had to use a come a long to get the two pieces back together. It wasnt as easy as just pushing them together."

That statement makes me CRINGE! If the lined clutch disc was properly aligned, the halves of the tractor should roll together without being forced.

I hope the plate wasn't holding it back, or likely you will have a clutch the won't disengage, from being bent!

The two ends of the tractor were not level.

I could get them very close but not close enought to get a bolt started.

I think the com-a-long just gave it that extra push since I was out there bymyself and the ends were sitting on jacks that were not heavy duty and I was scared to give it a heave hoe.

I used the input shaft to align and lock the pressure plate and clutch disc.

I think I did everything correctly but I will have to wait and see.
