I have found many "rigged" up fixes over the years.
I bought a JD 3020 years ago. That thing was rigged up from one end to the other. They had removed the engine balancer completely. Then the transmission input shaft was welded to one of the bearing as it has spun on the shaft earlier. Ring gear had a tooth welded back on and ground off smooth. The funny thing was this. I fixed the engine balancer issue. Then when I found all the problems in the transmission/rear end I decided o pull the pin. I just stuck it back together and sold it for a parts tractor. I knew the guy that bought it. I told him all that was wrong with it. He did not part it out. He used the tractor for years hauling hay out to his cows on a remote farm. He never had any transmission issues with the rigged up repairs. IF I had tried to use it the darn thing would have blown up when I drove it across the yard.
