TA in 300 help.

Posted by Kelly C on September 25, 2006 at 22:45:43 from (65.165.20.97):

Hey guys can you give this the once over? Fella purchased a 300 and cant get it to move with out dieing. I suspect the TA is in small peices.
What say you?
This is a copy of emails so top is the last. Bottom is the 1st.

Thanks.

"Well.
Lets see, The motor runs, Clutch works, Shifts, Brakes not stuck.
I suspect the TA might be the problem and not just bad ramp and rollers
ether. The planitary may have imploded.
pop back onto my website and get into the Farmall 400 section. I documented
the replacement of a TA there.

I will also copy this over to the guys at Yesterday Tractor discussion
fourm. Some real good IH guys there and they know alot more than me.
Just incase I am missing some thing.
