Yes you can do that but I would highly recommend to check the pressure with a gauge to make sure that the pressure is not too high.

There isn’t any way to adjust the pressure. You will have to get a higher pressure relief valve. PSI is stamped on the end of the valve.

Frame width is the same

The later build 282/301 had larger ports.

I suspect that you have something hanging up in the range shift park lock detent assembly #29 in the parts breakdown below.

Here is a link to an older thread addressing the gasket issue. The gasket with the zig zag channel for the lube passage is used on the later serial number tractors. If the gasket is used on the earlier tractor you will have an internal leak in the lube pressure circuit where the gasket is supposed to seal around the end of the reverse idler shaft. This would cause a loss of lube to ring gear and pinion. https://www.redpowermagazine.com/forums/topic/110315-86-series-split-gasket-mystery/

Have to have hydraulic pressure for TA to do what you want. Take the inspection plate off on right side of TA housing where flywheel is located. Use a bar with a flat end on it and pry on the flywheel ring gear. You have good leverage there.

No it is not a tapered roller bearing. The parts description for #18 is shown in attached drawing. The roller bearing was a running change from the factory to improve drive train reliability. There was a service bulletin issued advising that the ball bearings be replaced by the roller bearings anytime you were there for repair. I did have one customer with a 1586 that had the ball bearing fail on the RH side.

The roller bearings are located on the outboard end of the differential output shafts #9 on the attached diagram. The inner race #3, is 67406C1. The roller bearing #18, is 67254C91

The rubber plug goes in the groove in the housing where the reverse idler shaft locating dowel pin is located. It needs to be installed to prevent a lube pressure leak. Be sure and use the correct housing gasket. After you look at the correct gasket you will see why the plug is needed.

Did you blow air through the orifice? Rather unusual but make sure ball cage has not loosened up or any debris between the ball and seat.

Refer to attached parts breakdown. The piston is 35. Body 37 is held in with snap ring 41. You will not have 18 and 38. Snap ring can be difficult to remove as sometimes the ends will break off.

Unloading piston is sticking. It has a small orifice in it that is either plugged or piston is sticking. Located in right hand seat support.

Not close at all
