TC33D rear axle

I had recently bent my rear axle shaft and am in the need of some help.
What is the process to remove the shaft? if so could someone please let me know, I would appreciate it

Thanks

Hi. Welcome to the boards. I can't help with how to remove the axle shaft, but how new is the tractor and how far away is the dealer? You will probably need to see them for a part or two. Around here at least, they usually are happy to share advice with a customer if you ask.

Try going in at a non-busy time and telling them you bent the axle shaft and are wondering what parts you'll need to fix it. And, by the way, how do I get the thing apart? They'll probably show the exploded parts diagram, maybe even make you a copy.

Not a huge job but many hours none-the-less. Someone else may be able to provide you step by step instructions, but I can tell you a little as I did this on my 1720 many years ago. After you've removed the wheel, ROPs, and everything else back there, etc., you will need to jack up the tractor on that side (under the differential housing) and remove the entire final-drive housing on the bent-axle-side to get at the axle stub/shaft from the inside. Plan to replace the outer seal too, but be especially careful with the new installation.

Exploded diagrams can be had from the new holland parts site.

I wouldn't tackle this without a service manual in hand..
