Good grief. When is the last time that thing was run and moved? You better get a BFH when you split that thing.

Hey All,
Well I did get a look inside, It doesn't look good, Apparently last summer when we had a big rain in Aug at that property, it must have gotten water into the clutch housing , because it is just rusted terribly,So I guess it needs to be split,I'll put a few pictures up,
I'm Sorry to have wasted y'all's time, with this issue, I might need some insight into the splitting job, but it seems straight forward, That is not happening till after the summer ,All the suggestions were Great, Thanks,
On a Good Note,
SPL your suggestion about be able to move it it L/L worked out Great ,I am able to move it at low idle without Grinding gears, Fantastic . will make it easier to move onto a trailer so I can get it to where I will do the work in a couple of months, Hopefully I will be able to clean it up when I split it,
If anyone that has done the "split" has any thoughts on avoiding any Pittfalls that I may encounter, that would be Great,
Thanks,
Mike M.

Sad situation. That is like flood damage.

Good pics of the t/o. I was able to make a tool to regrease the t/o in our L3450 through that breather port. It was dry and you could hear it spin.

Glad you are able to move the tractor. -- Not that it will rejuvenate it, but notice that you can spray the t/o lavishly w/o danger of contaminating the clutch itself. The clutch is a couple inches forward of the t/o and any spinoff is going to be strictly radial tangent -- no axial. Also, look for a drain/vented bolt drain in the bottom of that bell housing. It may be stopped up. It will at least prevent a further worsening situation if you can introduce some appropriate juice repeatedly and be assured that runoff will drip out, not puddle in the bottom.

I Will give the spray thing a try , I don't think I will risk much trying that, most of those parts will need a week in the Evaporust tank
When I get around to the splitting job I will Post some pictures and give an update on how its going,
Have a bunch of irons in the fire right now, but at least I now know what I'll be up against
Thanks,
Mike M.

Best of luck. Keep us apprised of your progress.
It looks like pictures of some sort of linkage from the Titanic.
