Well I am now faced with the first major issue with my tractor since acquiring it a few years ago. The diff lock won't engage.
When I push down on the pedal? stick? engager? it will not go down all the way. I had the tractor in for spring maintenance and told them I needed it back before this weekend but was told it was something internal and I would not be able to get it back when I wanted if they tore it down. So now I am using it without the diff lock (actually have been for the past 6 months but now I would like to have it to tackle some stuff if the mud).
So has anyone here opened up that differential and, if so, just how much work is it? I will be looking over the manuals tonight and maybe they will give me a feel about tackling this job over the weekend (after spreading 20 tons of top soil).
Bummer.
