First you need to block up the tractor under the clutch housing, I used 6x6's about 2-3 ft long. Make sure they are good and stable. Block it up till the front tires are a couple inches off the ground.
Remove the hood, grill, drain coolant and oil, disconnect steering shaft and remove, remove radiator, pull the lower bolster and tires etc, then pull the upper bolster, disconnect every thing connected to the engine, support the engine with your gantry, remove the frame rails, pull the starter out (there is a bolt inside the bell housing that has to come out)and remove the rest of the bell housing bolts.
This is a big job and the upper bolster is heavy, use your gantry to remove it.
The engine is very heavy, if you're going to use an engine stand get a 1000# or better engine stand, My H engine was really taxing my 1000# engine stand(chinese made)
I'm glad it's not me having to do it!
Be careful!
