I have order the manual so hopefully in a few days it will be here and things will be clearer than mud. I am glad to hear disassembly isn’t that hard. Thanks.

That is good news that worst case may not have to split the tractor.

I would definitely look into the possibility of getting a scope in to verify the location of the foot first. I have a cheap cell phone scope that might work but it hasn't been particularly useful yet.

I tore the suction hose off my backhoe a few years back driving into the rough stuff. Dumped 28 gallons of hydraulic oil and had to waller around on a tarp underneath the thing to fix it. Since then I try to work my way in from the edges.

When I said I pulled the shaft I meant approximately 6 inches. That’s as far as it pulls out. I have a backhoe in this tractor. It’s been on for several years. Works great around the farm. I’m going to wait until I get the manual to see if there are better pictures and options for repairs.

Looking at the illustration from my service manual it seems it wouldn't pull out at all unless it had already been rotated far enough to disengage the shifting shoe (4) from the sliding sleeve (6).

EDIT: I just noticed the shifting shoe (4) should be retained by a push nut (2) so maybe it is still in the lever (1). You may have rotated the shaft 180 degrees when you put the roll pin back in. You might be able to disconnect the lever, rotate it 180 degrees, then push the shaft all the way in and see if it will engage the slot when you rotate it back in place. Be gentle while feeling for the shaft engagement and you should be okay. Once you feel the shoe hitting the sleeve it might take a few tries to get it to turn right and go in the slot.
