Yea, the reason I'm taking it off is because the vertical arm that attaches to the hydraulic lift and bolts to the gearbox (boy that is a bad design) is cracked at the main frame connection and now the gear box has been pushed slightly to the back of the machine. SO the main drive belt to the sheller flies off the pulley on the back of the main gearbox.
The plate the gearbox attaches to is being ripped at the corners to allow the drift.

This is after I heat and hammer the vertical lift arm back into the correct place (weld it) so it can bolt back to the gearbox when it is in its correct place.

Pick for 45 minutes, break something, order part, fix it, repeat, repeat and always something different. I just keep telling myself that eventually I'll have enough replaced that it will run like new!

Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
