I have my SM420 being rebuilt-bearings, seals and replacing the top plate and shifter. The repair guy orginally wanted to replace all the gears because of water damage but I looked at them and it seemed purely cosmetic..so I put a hault to that. The gears had no damaged teeth etc.I called him to pick up the tranny and now he says he can't get some of the seals for the PTO-not that I was having any problems with it.He said he could re-machine something so a more common seal could be used. I told him just to put it back on and I'd pick it up..the bill has grown another $200 from what he originally said and I think I'm being milked.

Back to my question: Any sources for PTO parts-if needed-can new or rebuilt ones still be purchased?

Why do I have a PTO? My 55 2nd series came with a dump bed-regular step side..but it dumps...handy for dump runs.

Thanks,

Keith
