[JLLM]

What holds the pto shaft in the back end? mine pulled out yesterday, I'm assuming its going to be expensive.

No, the whole shaft going into the back end.

Can't help you on that I'm afraid.

I pushed it back in and now i cant pull it back out again, ooh err missus.

Has yours got the circle of 6 bolts to change the stub? Some of them had a circlip holding the shaft in and to change between 540 and 1000 shafts you remove the circlip and pull shaft out to replace.

Must have dropped a lot of the transmission oil? My first approach would be to have a look at the parts diagram of that model, and see what could possibly be broken, there is a bolted surround to the PTO, circlip inside failed?

if you are really lucky take the housing with the four bolts that the pto sits in but screw some threaded bar in two of the holes to hold the pto gears then you can replace the circlip but you need to find the circlip and the reason ring me if you want 07710153603

I think the pto shaft on the power harrow was a bit dry and not sliding as freely as it should have.

There's quite a few PTO options available on those tractors but the most popular UK options are the lever operated speed change, probably with cable remote control to the cab on a 6480. This has a stub shaft held on by a ring of studs threaded into the carrier.
Secondly it might have an interchangeable shaft type with a circlip holding it in place. Changing the shaft to change the speed.
Thirdly, although rare, it might have a fixed six spline shaft that is not interchangeable.

A rookie rep once accidentally ordered a customers tractor with that fixed shaft. The customer understandably rejected the tractor. It hung around for months before it was sold at a very discounted rate. It was a bargain for somebody.

It's the first one, like I said its the whole shaft that came out, I've pushed it back in and its stayed in all day. She's on flatlifting duties followed by bedforming so no pto work
