1715 Clutch Replacement Advice

[audoguy]

Dear All,

Well I am finally tired of not being able to use the three high gear due to the clutch slipping so I am headed for a tractor split I have split the back 1/2 before to replace the overrunning clutch, so I am fairly handy, but I have never replaced a clutch on anything (even my old Ford Escort) before...

Any guidance on what I need to buy and who to buy it from?

Anything else I should replace while I am in there?

The 1715 has a single stage clutch with no real adjustment on it, unlike the 1710 and others that have an adjustment port.

Thanks in advance for any input!!!

These might help a little.

Also, when I had my clutch replaced on my NH 1920, the tractor shop gave me an option of a rebuilt clutch (dual) or a new one for $200 more. I opted to pay the extra $200 for a new one because I wanted to maximize the new clutch duty time and the likelihood of not having to split the tractor again. It's been 8 years on the new clutch and all is well.

Thanks to both. For sure I will go with new parts and probably just replace anything that wears or looks like it could ever wear. $200 is nothing compared to the time required to split the tractor....
