Whew, glad the rear axle is not next to the tree. Glad you got it off.

Ha! I looked down and sighed when I saw the PTO shaft was still on the tractor

...and you guys thought I was extreme using a pair of prybars.

Glad to hear you got it off without damage.

Hmm acetone with ATF. Any particular ratio? Or just kind of until it is "flowy"?

50/50

more like glad the bearing were not smoked as you tugged and ruined at the pto shaft or glad you didn't flip up and over!

Yea cant say I would of done it his way that soon. probably would of hit it put some heat to it, and then barely eased into it and then set the brake as I beat and heated...not sure I would of just dropped the clutch on it, haha.

I have a message in to Hoye, but does anyone know where I can get a category 1 adjustable side 3 point arm for my Yanmar YM165?

What I see on Hoye appears to be a Cat 0. What I have right now is a Cat 1 as it fits all my Cat 1 attachments.

ADJUSTABLE SIDE LINK: Yanmar Tractor Parts

Thanks.

I believe the Hoye link is a category 1. What does your existing one measure?

Not able to measure at the moment, but I will take a measurement soon. I am pretty confident it is 7/8” though.

Here’s a screenshot from Hoye that makes me think the arm they are selling is not Cat 1.
