    In your opinion would you say the cause of this issue was because the owner was dawggin' it in some deep mud and what not?

    Once u cook a seal. And the clutch gets soaked. With oil. U cant save it. A new seal and a new clutch. Is the only way. Kinda like a drum brake on a car when the shoes get contaminated with a leaky wheel cylinder. Or a leaky axle seal. Good vid. Thank you.

    I have an old Tel 29, critter nests were built inside. The chain track that the hoses and wiring lays in got bunched up and broke several, causing binding and pulling of wire at the bucket end of the boom. This chain track needs replaced. Would you advise to remove the inner boom by disconnecting wire harness at the bucket control and removing boom, or disconnect wiring and hydraulic hoses at actuator end, turret. Trying to avoid a wiring mess like your video shows.

    You might not need to pull it all apart like mine. If its the extend cylinder you might just have to loosen the nut at the end then unbolt the base of the cylinder and pull the cylinder out the front. My jlg manlift has a leaking extend cylinder and that's what I plan on doing.

    Positive gear engagement was a lie on the early SOS tractors. The 6000 and all tractors after 1965 had positive engagement. Those Red Hash marks denoted coasting gears. 5th, 6th, and 9th were the coasting gears. Dangerous as they wouldn't provide any engine braking down hill. We had one as a kid and I've got one in the shed.

    Sounds like it could be the traction coupling disconnected the trans from the rear end. On a 3 cylinder 4000 theres a lever on the right hand side of the transmission that engages and disconnects it on the 4 cylinder 4000 theres a little tab on the left side cover of the rear end that does it. might have to take the cover off to see if the arm is in the slot on the coupler too.

    Were the 6000s ever sold in Europe ? I have never seen one working on this side of the Atlantic although there might be the odd one in vintage circles. Also, why do they look so different to every other Ford ? Different colour. Different styling. Even different dashboard.

I am currently doing the same job on my 3000 with the engine in. Dropped the pan, disconnected the rods and try to push the piston out from bottom. Can't get it out. How did you?

    To add to this information. The early SOS Direct drive clutch was a roller clutch. Later are hydraulic. Early only a a suction screen for transmission pump, later had an replaced filter and oil cooler. The speed selector on the Early SOS has red dangle lines on the speed sections that have no engine. braking

    Haaaaa I had three large trees for logs mostly 16 fters, on the trailer so towed it down the one hill I had to for from 4th into first to get the wheels not to spin, have no idea how much weight was on that trailer. It had the Allied 300 loader on it. It was put on in June of 72. Just before haying time.

    yeah it would have a problem staying engaged without something holding it. I guess they either just used it like that with a spring clamp they would put around the cable once pulled out or vice grips. It needs a little more development to get it right.

    I have a 640 for which I have replaced the rear main seal twice unsuccessfully. Your well presented video shows two pins inserted in the side tapered straight seals which I never saw even when removing the old seal. I think that is the trick I need but I don't have the two small rods so I'm thinking I can just insert some 12/2 copper shafts or even a couple small finish nails that should do the trick.

    That was a Good "Rejuvenation". By getting all that "Rot-GUT Sludge-a-matic guey" out of the Trany, it went from A "Slip-a-matic" to a proper. "Selecto-O-Matic" that just needs a little more "Tweeking". Hope you found the end of that Spring ! That old unit does'ent need any more "grinding-compound" in the gear-box. Just AMAZES me ,that people just DON'T Change fluids after the machinery is 10years old....; That's when they NEED it the MOST ! I just guess that's when others "Run them to death" ,All because they "Don't have a DIME in them"...( MOST likely just inherited"). It's just good "Ecologically" to keep Usefull machinery in "Good Werking Condition" & get at least a 100years out of them. Thank you Sir for the Excelent vidio and happy safe tractoring. Best wishes with all your endeavours.
