Pete: The more I think about this, I must have split the tractor. Yes I do remember the cotter pins. However I also remember not getting the fork the exact shape as new, thus the collar that holds release bearing turned a 1/4 turn on me. My fishing expedition up in there by hand was to get release bearing carrier back in place. That happened to me twice while plowing snow. I cured that problem by reducing clutch pedal free travel to bare minamum. I adjusted it not by pedal on platform, but rather feeler gauge between pressure plate fingers and release bearing. That was winter of 01-02, and knock on wood it stayed ever since. I am quite particular about that clutch adjustment at least once per year.
I plow snow with my 130 and this is why I'm always against doing shuttle work with Farmalls, big and small. The clutches and shift levers were never designed for all that shifting. Cockshutt had much better clutches and transmissions for loader and other shuttle work.
You think about it, probably one shifts gears 50 times on shuttle work for every shift on field work. I've growled about that one since the early 80s, all these clowns wanting to put loaders on a Farmall, destroyed the best field work tractor known to man.
