Valpadana 6045 RS
Hey folks,


Just sharing a recent project I tackled — I picked up a Valpadana 6045 RS with a completely busted gearbox and non-functioning hydraulics. Turned out the gear selector fork had snapped clean off, and the only way to get in was to split the case.

I put together a custom jig using heavy C-channel to support both halves of the tractor during the teardown. Thought it might be helpful for anyone working on similar machines or dealing with gearbox issues in older tractors.

Here’s the video if you want a look at how I tackled it:

I kept it short and to the point, but happy to go into more detail on the jig setup, splitting process if anyone’s interested.


Cheers,
Scott
