I just purchased a 1958 Farmall 130, it has a loud wining / growl sort of roller bearing noise coming from the left bull gears OR the transmission rear section, It occurs in all gears and even reverse,, it ONLY happens when there is a load on the tractor,, if its coasting or the machine is in neutral or my foot is on the clutch it does not happen,, if im in any gear and start to climb a hill it will get rather loud,, I leaned against the rear wheels and i can get them to rock parallel to the tractor like they have quite a bit of play in the cases..
a local tractor expert opend the transmission and pored almost 2 gallons of gear oil in her before we could see the bottom of the trans case getting covered..
( JUST ordered a manual off the site )
QUESTIONS:
1- is it true that no matter how much oil i pour in that transmission it will NOT get to the final drive gears..?
2- there are NO drain or fill plugs on the final drive gears... help? take the pans off , clean and then....?
3 - is there a procedure for adjusting the lash or bearing play without tearing the entire drive unit apart..?
4 - ANY expertise in any of the diagnoses is welcome,,
DID i buy a lemon,, ???? ))
