IH Countershaft Problems May 14, 2010 02:31AM
Looking for some help on an IH countershaft. Running an 806 shaft (supposed to be the better one to run from what I was always told) and I can't get it out. Is it possible we twisted this one too (twisted the stock 10 shaft a couple years ago)? This is on a 640 3000rpm profarm. It will move about an inch and that's it, it acts like it is binding between the high cm and 3rd, like inside the countershaft support. I had to cut the last one out, hoping not to again. Is there anything better to use? Thanks for any help.

we had a chunk of round stock piece of steel we machined down at one end so it would center inside the shaft. then we used a sledge hammer to pound it out. it goes in tight at that end to my knowledge. been a while since i did one. went to a pro fab since then.

Thanks for the reply. I got it out, I have a good driver, but I had to cut it in two pieces and there is a chunk left in the high cm that I will have to cut some more and press it out. I just can't believe we twisted another one. Is there anything stronger besides going to a Profab? It sure makes it a pain to have to cut out the countershaft everytime I go in there and the splines are twisted, thanks for any more help with this.

we never twisted a shaft but bent one.

Randy,
It is Andy, the guy that Jeff bought his tractor from. How are things going with it. Did you put different gears in it? Has he pulled it since the Keystone?
