Hey guys, I have a leak at the PTO and so I read a post about changing the seal. It said to put the PTO shaft into a vice, remove the snap ring and tap out the shaft. I have attached two photos of the shaft in the vice. Initially, I used the set up shown in the first photo and after much banging(not tapping), the shaft moved slightly but would not go past the ridges right above the where the snap ring goes (see the ridges in the third photo). I figured either I am doing something wrong (and I need to use the setup shown in the second photo) or these ridges developed over time with wear and tear, and simply need to be ground down a little to allow the shaft to slide out. Can someone tell what to do here? Also, what to I do once I have the shaft out? How do I go about replacing the seal? I heard I needed a special tool? Thanks for any advice!
