How do I support the engine to remove the oil pan? I have to replace a rod bearing.

Here is a quick,easy, inexpensive and strong way to support the tractor whilr you pull the engine. And like old said more than likely the crank is chewed up and it would be best to get it ground...HTH...Tim

Well to pull the oil pan you also need to pull the front axle off. Theres a number of ways to do it. One is with a chain hoist and an over haed beam. Another is with a jack and jack stands under the tranny area. Either one works but me I perfer the chain hoist because of more control over all of it. But if you have a rod bearing bad then you probably need to pull the complete engine and have the crank checked to make sure its still good or you will end up throwing good money after bad because if it spun a rod bearing it most likely also hurt the crank shaft bad enough to need to have it turned and if so your money ahead to do a complete engine rebuild and be done with it for another 30 plus years.

GOOD point about the "bad" bearing; old.

Learned that the hard way back about 4 or 5 decades ago some how if a bearing spins out it takes the crank with it about 99% of the time so in the long run your always money ahead to have the crank turned or it will happen again before the engine has even run an hour

I am assuming that it is a bad rod bearing because it knocks under load. Could it be something else?

Could also be a main bearing but either way the only correct way to fix it is to pull the crank out and have it checked I'll bet theres one or more area out of round and if so it needs to be turned or your wasteing your time and money

Knocking under load would indicate a main bearing knock.
Knocking under coast or revved up and then idled would indicate a rod knock.
Mains generally are the problem when knocking under load.
