I need to replace the clutch on my Ford 1700 Tractor. It is stuck and will not disengage. I have lots of experience on clutch and transmission repair on cars and trucks, but have never split a tractor. The dealer wants over a $1,000. I found the parts for about $200. I can't imagine getting a much better parts price but do you have any supplier recommendations for Ford / New Holland parts?
I have a 770 loader on the tractor and have never removed it. I am sure I have to remove the loader and the loader mounting brackets to split the tractor. Has anyone done that on a 1700? and do you have any tips?
Same with the split. One thing I am concerned about is the hydraulic line that runs from the pump to the back of the tractor. How do I cap that. Do I have to drain the hydraulic system?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
