SMTA and into 100 series used non plated rollers and a different ramp before a change to plated rollers and matching ramp. Also rear planet carrier bearing was different and changed early on in 100 series. After change the later parts worked in early units but you wasn't supposed to mix plated and non plated parts. Rear carrier bearing was made thinner and a big shim, sheild or spacer washer used. Whatever one of the 3 you want to call it. The bearing center and outer race is slightly offset froom each other. Have to look close to see it. Would probably take most of my fingers to count the units I found with the bearing installed backwards. Only found one old unit in the last 10 or 15 years with the old thicker bearing in it. IH hasn't made the non plated parts for years. T/A clutches or t/a release bearings are going to wear out after a while. After so much time the lube in the release bearing is going to run out. T/A gear shafts and ramp roller parts seem to wear out the same or worse if the t/a is never used in the feild. Just my opinion but seems like the worst shape ones on average is from tractors with a non operating t/a clutch and run straight high for who knows how long.

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