Last five days the boss has been cleaning the manure out of the cow pens with a Case 2090 and an old Knight manure spreader box that is set on an old truck frame with duals. Never have had a problem with the pto shaft. The square shaft has always slid into the drive tube about ten inches or so, could be a few inches longer but it has always worked fine. I was getting ready to quit for the day a few minutes ago and had just shut the door to the shop when he comes driving up to the shop with the tractor. I walked down along the side of the spreader to see what he had broken on it, figuring the chain had broken again. That was when I noticed both pieces of the pto shaft laying disconnected on the tongue. He said the front half just fell out of the rear half. I thought maybe the square part had broken a piece off and was still in the tube. We looked at both pieces, neither was broken or damaged in any way. We tried to mate them up and the square one would only go in the tube about an inch. Where the other eight or nine inches of the square one went we can't figure out. Just like it shrunk itself up and disappeared into thin air. Haven't had anything like that happen before.

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
