Any tips?.......I've built a pair of splitting stands and am ready to go.

Splitting stands? Man what a luxury. I have split countless tractors over the years and always just used a couple of floor jacks. The only time I bothered with stands was when I was splitting into 3 parts, the engine, the clutch housing, and rear differential, the stands were to hold up the clutch housing section on both ends.

The only advice I can give is that when going back together don't force it. If it doesn't go, something isn't lined up. You can use bolts as a guide but don't use them to pull the halves back together. If you find yourself forcing it take a break, come back and give it another try, if it still doesn't go separate the parts and recheck things then try again.

I'm mostly concerned with the hydra. lines and any gaskets, o-rings, ect. I might need.
