Proper seating of the torque limiter isn't by releasing the clutch pedal. It is done with the tractor already in motion at full throttle in 2 or 3rd gear high range and then stand hard on the wheel brakes. This is a shock load and will allow the torque limiter disc to slip and center itself.

Huh! I wonder / hope the mechanic that had mine apart a few years back knew about this. He never said anything to me, so either he did it himself (sorta doubt it) or he didn't know. Did I get extremely lucky? Is it too late to do any good now?

If they're not centered, they don't last very long at all.

He must have done it then. It's been probably 4 1/2 years, 300 hours.

Sometimes you can be lucky by not doing the centring/slipping procedure on the torque limiter.
I've done a couple and have not done it. (I didn't know)
I plow and use a deep tillage cultivator, so by putting it in deep and making the tractor pull hard, it can center.
I wouldn't worry about it after 4 + years.

Anyone want a two week work vacation to Northern Wyoming? Work in a heated shop on a 7050 AC. Come hunting Mule Deer with us. Help butcher a pig. Work on our tractor. Send home some deer that my family harvests (sorry you can not do the harvesting but can watch us!), hog, maybe a lamb in freezer boxes. Plus rate some cold hard cash in your pocket home....

Back in the seventies I put a disc in without removing the cab. We took the AC compressor off and left all lines hooked up, we put all AC components on the steps. If you have front weights, take them off, you will not be happy if you don't.

Always good to consult with the bank first 
Man! A heated shop........ that makes it almost too easy! Wish mine was.....would have made all my splitting experiences a LOT more plesant. I would totally be down for helping if only my Scheduler Spouse would allow it

Don't know how a 7000 series compares but I had to pull the tranny out of my 8070 and supported the front of cab with lengths of 1 1/2 pipe with 1in redi-rod and some nuts and washers to make a crude screw adjustable "jack".The A/C stuff was unbolted and tied/laid in cab.When I split it later to fix the leaking rear main I don't remember having to do anything to the cab.Maybe they are made different?
I don't remember if the book gave guidance on removing the PD but it is HEAVY!!!!! and back in a hole so theres no good way to get hold it.I had access to a truck transmission jack(heavy) and made a bracket on it to pull/install the PD.
