how to drill and tap the bull pinion shaft on a IH for a pressure lubed diff January 04, 2019 11:42PM
Is it very hard to drill one thru the bull pinion shaft and tap the end ? Plus what is the best swivel fitting to use for doing this ? Wanting to do this on a 560 diff for a 6000 pound hot farm?

I have my local machine shop do it. I use an air chuck fitting for the swivel.

You could also use a hyd rotory coupling like on a combine. For the variable speed corn head drive or a variable speed rotor belt. Like on a Gleaner R series combine. (I am most familiar with gleaner that's why I said that but I am sure IH or JD has one.) They are designed to rotate at high speeds and very rarely do they leak on a combine. I have only replaced a few and only bc they where bent or someone hit them and broke it.

Bmaxwell what air chuck fitting do you use? I haven’t seen one that swivels I guess.

The ones I have seen use a hydraulic swivel.
Much more durable.
3/8" npt iirc

There is a small pump that bolts to the inside of MCV cover. It drives off a cm gear.

We use an electric pump one for like a lawn sprayer. put a suction hose in the drain of the rear end. simple and light weight.
