i was at the tractor supply store (big R) to try and get a longer extension to my PTO shaft for the wood chipper. A total new longer shaft runs about $250 incl the new u joints. and i cut it to fit.
As an alternative they have an overriding clutch assembly that would effectively lengthen my PTO shaft by 6" and allow me to use my existing PTO drive shaft for the chipper. I know i don't need an overriding clutch in this modern tractor, but my question is....would it hurt to use it.
That part only costs about $75.00 and then i wont have to fiddle with the other drive shafts that i haven't even checked on yet. I didn't realize that there would be this difference in the hook-up lengths between the JD and the new Kioti.
