cole: I'd first get an IT manual, that will show you precisely what has to be done, or at least I hope it will. I don't have my IT manual right now, it's out on loan.

I did much the same on a 560 once, and I don't remember it being quite as difficult as most of these guys make it sound. I was dealing with much heavier iron than you will be. Yes, you will have to split tractor between transmission and torque tube. That means you still have wheels on that back half. With internal bull gears, I don't think you have pull the rear axles and housings. If it's same as the larger Farmalls removal of brake pinion shafts allow one to remove differential carrier. Once you have differential out and split at front, both upper and lower transmission shafts will come out.

Believe me, when I did 560, it was 35 years ago, I was and still am no mechanic. I must have done it right, as I blew the engine 3-4 years later, sold the rest of it to a tractor puller. He's been pulling it for 30 years with hp no 560 was ever intended for. I will admit I haven't seen it for 6 years but it was still going then.
