4430 input shaft/gear June 25, 2019 11:55PM
Does anyone make/sell a billet transmission input shaft (the hollow one) and gear for a 4430 ? Trying to stay with the wet clutch setup. Thanks for any info.

Would this happen to be the same tractor that broke something at Lorah’s Saturday night?
What gear ended up breaking?
To be honest you might be fighting a losing battle.
Anything could be made, but at what cost.

Yep. The first gear on the shaft and the shaft then it dropped parts down and took a tooth off the bottom gear.. Not positive on which broke 1st. If we can get something made it would still be less expense than a dry clutch setup I think. Maybe next time it gets a different setup. Sure is a job to change it. There was a 4430 with the picture of a buck on the side panel which used to pull at Hughesville Pa. that had issues with a shaft breaking a lot. I would like to know who it was. I haven't seen the tractor pull in a few years.

My 2 cents for what it worth just spend on a 3 speed and dry clutch be cheaper in the long run. Your making power from what I seen at pig farm and fighting a losing battle with wet clutch and stock trans

I agree. A good winter project. Going to try it again as is for now. With our fingers and toes crossed. Thanks for the input.
