Does anyone have any advice on splitting a 1206 without the proper stands? I need to put in a new reverse gear.

You will need to make a stand that will bolt on to the at the speed transmission since you will be splitting the speed transmission from the rearend. It will have to handle alot of weight so BECAREFUL. Also make sure you put a stand or a block under the drawbar on the back cause the rear will have a tendancy to want to tip back. I am collecting 1206 Serial numbers and general location.Would you mind sharing yours? Thanks

I just bought a 1966 1206 and saw you are collecting serial numbers and locations. I live in Cassopolis, Mi (Southwestern MI, just above IN line). It was bought new in 66 by the owners father. The serial number is 98** send me your email and when I pick it up ill get the whole number and send it to you. If youd like to know any thing else send me an email. I know of two other 1206's in my area that ill try and get serial numbers off of for you. Id be interested in seeing how many you have found.

Talk to ya later!

Hello,
I have never split a 1206 but I found the easiest thing to do on most tractors is to take an hour or so and weld up a set of stands to fit. I split a large Massey ( 1130 ) and I drilled and bolted some oild heavy angle iron to the fron and back halves, the angle going straight down to the floor. Then welded some cross braces on the uprights and also ran a brace from the front of the tractor at an angle down to the bottom of the upright angle iron. This kept the stands from folding. I think I even tacked on a couple of old casters to the stand on the front end and after unbolting it just rolled it forward. It sounds involved but didn't take long at all. I had a lot of scrap steel around so had no cost in it. Trick is to bolt the braces to the tractor then weld them to each other. That way is quickest and you know they will fit. Good Luck! YC
