just seen this, its different to mine, gearbox on mine is a lot smaller than that one, i found one like this already and the drive shafts in the gearbox are heavier with a different spline to mine, thanks for looking for me though

Is there anything else wrong with it apart the the pto obviously

 

[aleary5a]

no, i got a pto shaft from malpas online and i have an elederly gentleman in my village who is a retired engineer he is machining the shaft to accept the bearings and a threaded stub needs machined on the end of the shaft to retain the pto clutch once this is done should be good to go, i am missing one of the selectatilth gears in the gearbox this is proving hard to find at a reasonable price, there is a company in ireland who have the correct shaft and the gear that i need but they want £180 plus postage this is too much for me to spend in this old machine

Are these for Howard?

Don't want to scrap them.
Edit - Lely apparently.
