About 5 years ago the tranny in the wife's caravan crapped out. No 3rd gear. Bought a service manual off ebay and tore it down. Like mentioned earlier just lay out the parts in sequence and take pics, lots of pics. I found a broken hollow splined shaft on one of the planetary carriers. Bought replacements for it and the mating part from a tranny salvage place. Bought a set of gaskets and seals off ebay and put it back together. Measured all the friction plates and metal plates using the specs in the service book. Checked all the bushings and bearings and all were ok. About 5 years and 45k miles later it's still working great. About $300 total including oil and filter for the refill.

If it felt tight it was because something was not lined up just right and needed to be twisted or jiggled a bit more to get things started. Once everything is aligned, it all slips together easily.

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
