2nd update on the Ford 1210 PTO problem.

Yes, they should fit your tractor.
The tractors were built in Japan, mounted on a skid or metal pallet, less the wheels and partially broken down to ship.

hello Tractor tech, Just to let you know that I have bought the gear set and they are on the way, will inform you when received'

Thanks for your help,
Rabet

Good news. Have you removed your old one to see what it looks like?

 

[rabet]

No not yet because the items from ebay cannot be returned even if they are incorrect, and I do not want to be stuck with a stripped tractor for many weeks (delivery quoted as 23 May to 21 June), so I am quite happy to wait until I have the items in my hand before I start.

The shop that is selling the gear clutch, also has for sale a 1210 gear box casing, it looks identical to mine so I am fairly confident (fingers crossed) that the gears will fit. Seems like they have dismantled a complete 1210 gearbox as they have other internal gears for sale.
Here's hoping.

Hi all,
Just to let you know the parts have arrived, and they look in very good condition, I am very plesed.
So now I just need to summon the energy and the enthusiasm, to split this tractor. What greaves me is the fact during rebuild I was inches from this shaft. Now what a pain, but at least I have the spares thanks to yourselves, much appreciated.
