Ford 5000 and 7000 PTO Lever Detent Repair

Yes, the tractor is a 6610, but some where in the past, a previous owner replaced the rear end with one from a 5000. This is why I like Fords, because for 30 years of tractors, main components will bolt together. Some internal designs changed a little, like the pto lever and valve. That's why this video isn't labeled about a 6610 pto lever. Happy Fixing!

I got a small farm in northern Ohio, and I really enjoy watching your videos

Nice fix, it was easier than i thought in the beginning, I was expecting a split of the tractor in two

[@sarkisi]

Lift cover is one way to get to the pto clutch. If the tractor has Load Monitor, then splitting might be necessary.

Wow, a couple hundred bucks for a new one... Glad you could find a used one!

Nice video

Maybe you could cut down a pushrod to make that pin, if you could find the right size of pushrod. Just thinking out loud. 👍👍✌️

So is the PTO on these ran off a hydraulic motor? I've wanted to understand the PTO on these for a long time , but never had a reason to tear into it. It's nice to be able to just put it in gear while the clutch is engaged.

[@3cx71]

It uses a hydraulic clutch pack,with hydraulic pressure from.the hydraulic pump,the lever presses a valve to supply hydraulic pressure to clamp the clutch plates.there is a shaft goes from splined hub in the centre of the flywheel to the centre of the clutch pack,there's a splined hub on the back of the clutch pack that engages with the splines on the friction plates that connects to the pto shaft.

My wife inherited a 5000 and the transmission has a dipstick attached to the fill plug. On the rear end it has a fill port at the top behind the seat but I can't find where to check the oil level.

[@greencastlefarms6595]

The transmission and rear end share the same. So the dipstick is for the transmission and the rear end. It takes New Holland 134 Hydraulic oil. It’s best not to put anything else in there to protect the pto clutch and seals in the hydraulic top cover. Also always good to park it with the 3 point hitch lowered.

@@greencastlefarms6595 Ford 5000 without Dual Power (most of the models sold did not have it) has separate oil reservoirs for gearbox and rear axle. If the gearbox filler plug has a dipstick then the rear axle has a level plug on the left side of transmission case near the pto axle. About the same level as the axle stub. If combined transmission, the oil levels are still different. The oil is pumped to the gearbox via a cooler and from there it flows through gearbox back plate openings down to the rear axle. If the oil reservoir is shared, no dipstick on the filler plug but it is on the left side of transmission case, behind pto cluch lever pin. The separate gearbox uses 80W-90 GL4/5 oil but you can use also M2C-86A/B or newer wet brake hydraulic/transmission oil. Ford 5000 has simple straight cut gears in gearbox. The rear axle must have wet brake oil filled, without it the brakes lose power or have severe judder.

@@sarkisi m2c-134d is what belongs in there. Or simply just CNHI Ambra 134 from the New Holland dealer. You must be in a country outside of North America. You are correct about the difference between the dual power and standard transmissions. I wasn’t thinking about that. It’s been a while since I’ve seen one without dual power. Oil is fairly critical to get right, especially when there are “spec” oils being sold in US stores that are made of used electrical transformer oil and whatever other slop they scrape off the floor. There are lawsuits about that right now so it’s best for North American Ford tractor owners to stick with the dealer/factory recommended oil instead of what is on the shelf at the local tractor supply. Love your Ford 7000 videos! I have a row crop 7000. Original owner and less than 4000 hours.

[@rogercansler3709]

$230. for that?? Well guess I shouldn't be shocked price wise. Needed a steering part for our old case, nothing special but an obsolete fitting. $270. I feel your pain.

[@JMo268]

It makes me sad to hear those parts are scarce and overpriced. One of the things I love about Fords is my belief that they still make parts and most parts are interchangeable between models of the same decade so there's a million of them. My 3000 injectors are the same injectors in my 5000, for instance and they're only $25. VS $950 for an injector on my late-model Kubota.
