That one should not be too hard. On the old narrow front IH the only
really safe way is to hang the front half from a chain hoist. then
we'd block up the rear half on a roller cart . You roll the back
half away from the front half. on those the front half is so top
heavy that trying to block it upresults in a dangerous situation.
Being a two banger, I assume it is a japanese tractor of some sort.
kubota? I saw a Satoh up for auction one time. it was the size of a
lawn tractor, but had full cat 1 3 point hitch. I thought it would
be excellent for a tiller, if I could find a small tiller for it. I
was not able to go on sale day. I think it went cheap because the
trans was locked up.
The nice thing about a tractor is you don't so much drop the trans
as roll it backwards...
I may actually be doing this relatively soon. I think I've stumbled
on to what may be an excellent deal on a small diesel tractor with a
loader and a bad clutch. Whats actually bad about it is that it
never disengages... He'd been living with it like that until the
starter solenoid went bad at which point he brought it to the shop.
I got brought in as a tractor expert (its a
motorcycle/snowmobile/4wheeler kind of shop that will take on any
work) and clucked my tongue at it appropriately. I explained the
only way to know what the problem was would require splitting the
tractor and taking a look around. So probably 4 hours of labor just
to see... He's still deciding but I told him I'd give him a grand
for it as it sits. The hydraulics all work, the 2cyl diesel starts
super easy and runs strong. Could be a great deal...

but other than old tractors, you almost never need to. it is not
that bad, just drop the trans and unbolt the flywheel. Just a
matter of perspective, I guess. And I never had to do it with an
auto trans the weight of those Ps of S adds to the aggravation
factor for sure.
on tractors, it is not that bad on IH. That is all i ever had to do,
and only a couple of them
