As I came up to the shop door and depressed the clutch pedal, I felt something fail inside the clutch housing. The pedal stays down and of course the clutch won't disengage! I think a split is in my future! What should I be looking for?

I'll get a lite and look up in the bellhousing tomorrow and see if I can see what failed. I put a new clutch in there about 5 or 6 years ago.

It's a '58 D17 on factory propane and probably my favorite tractor around here.

Bolt that clamps the two fork parts together loosened up and spread the parts apart.

On mine the shaft from the pedal will come out of the trunion nut. I have no idea how and it always threads back in. Dr Allis has said you can take a 1/2" fine thread bolt and weld it to the end of the shaft for new threads. Haven't done it yet.

I'll crawl under there today and see if I can see anything thru the access hole under the clutch.
