I have owned a Ford with SOS for 35 years and really love it. It is wonderful for what I do with it. It was a horse in its day but now just does hay making duties. The input shaft is the weakest part of this unit. Slipped splines in the torque limiting clutch disc are common. This isn't hard to repair, but parts are getting harder to find each passing day. I did retro my 6000 last time and replaced the splines with a 1 inch hex. First one I did was 13/16 hex but cracked and hemorrhaged oil after 6-8 years. I found out the shaft is hollow and under oil pressure so 1 inch worked much nicer. Al
