I have two 706's. A gas and a diesel. Auger and chore tractors now. I can't necessarily remember a clunk noise when shifting the TA, but that just maybe a characteristic of your tractor. If the TA holds in both high and low range I would say just go with it. Probably not much you can do without splitting the tractor to fix a clunk noise that may not be a problem anyway. The labor to split the tractor is as much as a rebuilt TA. Keep running it until it doesn't move. The clunk might not even be the TA. Could be something worn in the drive train shows up when the TA is shifted. One of my 706's I use only in low range as high range slips. Something internally is leaking when in high range, probably the TA. I might split it someday, but for what I use it for low range is just fine. On the steering and brakes, yes, they both go to manual steering and brakes as soon as the engine shuts off. You should still be able to manually steer the front wheels. It will be hard and slow. The brakes also have no power assist provided by hydraulic pressure, but here again you can pump them up with your foot and have brakes as a safety feature. If someone has modified the multi control valve (MCV) by taking the little plastic check ball or plug out then the brakes probably will not pump up. Most all tractors have no power steering and brakes when the engine shuts down.

Today's Featured Article - Old Time Threshing - by Anthony West. A lovely harvest evening late September 1947, I was a school boy, like all school boys I loved harvest time. The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
