Well update time… long story… shipped clutch to get rebuilt and between companies ups lost it! Anyway.. with state of tractor needing a few other things too I’ve decided to see if anyone is interested in lots of good parts. Again a DF 354. 2002. Ill try to put pics in… gives all the info!
appreciate all the great advice and assistance over the years..downsizing and going to the green side!!
Hope in the end I can help someone or a few with reasonable parts…. I’m in the northeast us…
Yes it’s a 2 stage clutch.. she’s been good but I’m rough on the clutch.. I use it with a plow on the back in winter and a few projects were heavy lifting and slow moving big rocks into place. Had to use clutch and brake a lot. When I started to adjust it years ago I knew this time was coming!
Well, got her split! Actually came apart a bit better than expected. Unbolted clutch and surprisingly most of it looks good. Friction plate was obliterated and pieces everywhere… obviously my problem! Also throw out bearing is gone but otherwise I should be able to replace minimum parts. Overall good news!
FYI if in need of parts I’ve found 2 sources… R&R Farm Equipment in AR and Ray Hillman in AB Canadaboth were very helpful with questions and knowledge.. I’ll update when I get the parts needed and it’s reassembly time. Try to add pics…
