My MFWD went out yesterday.

At least I think it went. I was running my 4310 yesterday getting ready to plant corn and heard a clicking sound coming from the front of the tractor. It sounded like a stick or something hitting the fan blade. I stopped the tractor and listened. No noise. I start rolling again and there it goes again. I stop and raise the hood, wow my engine compartment is still nice and clean after 29.6 hours, oh yeah, I don't see and sticks or obvious noise makers. I disengage 4WD and take off, noise stops. I engage 4WD and noise starts again. I'm no Einstien but I think it may be the 4WD. I had already called the shop about bringing it in on Friday to have them fix my tilt steering so I went ahead and loaded it up yesterday and took it to them. We will see what happens. Only 29. something hours and my 4WD is giving me problems, what a bummer.

Hope that your luck and it is just the shaft cover going to the front axle.

I hope that by the shop you are referring to the JD Dealership, and not those yahoos you work with.... /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

 

[Tractors4u]

The dealership. Which yahoos were you talking about?

 

[rockyridgefarm]

the rocket jocks...

There is no way I would let them work on my tractor. Besides, most of them are contractors that got the job by having the lowest bid. Would you want them working on your tractor? /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

 

[rockyridgefarm]

Yeah, what was I thinking. Let them stick to loading tons of fuel into large cans...
