I replied to Dirty Rice's question about the loader arm cross member, since this is his thread.
The metal seal ring has a hook on the ends, much like some automatic transmission rings. Patience and extra care not to stress them when reinstalling is all I can offer. If you get that far, you will have to remove the old ones and it will become very clear as to what the challenges are with these rings. I can't recall the clutch disc count, but they alternate metal disc and friction disc, around 6 or each for forward and the same for reverse. If they are in reasonable shape, you won't need to change them. I'd wait until you had it on the bench before buying any parts so you know what you need. Excessive wear and seriously damaged parts will be a whole different ball game and can become prohibitive in cost. With any of this type of assembly, clean is mandatory. Any dirt, or other foreign debris will have you doing it again. Other things to be done when the shuttle is out would be the thrust washers on the output, seals and new gaskets where the tractor is split. Clean the torque tube, pump pickup screen and flush the case before reassembly. Good luck if you decide to tackle it.
