Thanks so far guys. If I open it up and find a mess of rusted out shims and decide that I need new disks also, does that mean I need to order new shims also? I also wouldn't be surprised if someone has already removed all the shims and adjusted the nut all the way tight. When I got it, the hydraulic filter didn't even have a valve in it rendering it ineffective.
YT parts didn't list any shims. I've also found that on about anything I do to it, I replace the bolts and use a can of anti-seize on the threads. This tractor has been worked on enough that bolts are rusted and someone else has already buggered up the bolt heads enough I've had to hammer and chisel some loose.
Karl, I can handle most mechanical repairs once I figure out what I'm doing. The I&T manual doesn't really say a whole lot. Kinda like working on dash radio and interior door panels on new vehicles. Some have hidden screws and some don't, some parts just pop loose with a lot of effort and some you have to pull and then lift, etc. You can break that plastic stuff and plastic bolts easy if you pull at the wrong place.
