I'm replacing the bearings as you did. In my previous response I said I thought I had it fixed, now it seems too loose. I have a 0.004" shim ordered from CaseIH, may not get here until Wed. If you don't mind, you can send me a picture at cnorwood@wbsnet.org. Not sure I understand how you got calipers in to measure the backlash. The only way I see to get anything in is to remove the 4 differential gears, then it's a long reach. I did remove the thinnest shim from the front of the countershaft. It seemed to make it too tight, so I put it back. But, I'm not sure of that either, as for whatever reason, I did not get the front bearing seated right. Had problems after I put the shim back in. I drove it in with a hammer and socket on the inner race, I did not do that with one shim removed, that might be why it was too tight. And, the book says the ring and pinion are supposed to be flush at the big end of the pinion (front end). I cannot see that as the housing is in the way. The small end appears flush. So, I'm still messing with it. This is the one thing I have to get right.

Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
