I posted about a month ago about the pto shaft coming out the back of my 8700. Got some rain here, so I tore into it tonight. I've got
everything out except the lower gears. The manual says, "Support driven gears and remove sleeve (14) bearing (15) assembly. The driven
gears (11 and 13) can then be removed from bottom of rear axle center housing." Remove sleeve/bearing assembly - just like that! I've
supported the gears, but can't even budge the assembly. How the devil do I get that to slide out the back? That's all that's keeping me
from tracking down replacement parts. Would love some advice.
