Well, got the drive housing off the tranny case. No problem. Cribbed the rear end totally off the ground, and used a chain hoist on a trolly. took me about 30 mins total, and that included building the cribbing. Used the chain hoist to lift the whole rear end of the tractor, so no jack involved.
Now, I see nothing wrong with the brake band, however, the brake drum is VERy loose, and when I got the final drive off, the brake band fell out.....seems like maybe the anchor pin worked loose, as that would explain why the brake quit working, and also why the band rod would not allow the pedal to go all the way "home" when you took your foot off of it.
Also, how much side-to-side play should there be in the short shaft in the drive housing? Seems a bit sloppy to me, but I will also take the bearings out and have a look since I got it this far. I will also replace the seal since I have her open......
