1958560 Posted December 13, 2021 Author Share Posted December 13, 2021 Dont necessarily need 540 except for backup tractor for haybine. The 52 lives on the haybuster tub grinder, it pulls great but does kinda of a squeal when pto first engages. I've always idled it down before disengaging pto, but it takes 15 seconds plus to wind down, even at idle. I'm guessing brakes are getting thin. Was just wondering if parts would interchange when I rebuilt pto. Thanks for the replies, Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ihfarms Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 May I ask what baler you have? We have switched some of ours over to match our tractors in time because of this 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dale560 Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 On 12/12/2021 at 12:19 PM, Gearclash said: In addition to the cost switching to the 1000 RPM components, your long term operating cost will go up as the 1000 PTO CV on those balers has about 60% the life of the 540 PTO CV and the 1000 will cause more vibration when it begins to loosen up. You will be money ahead in the long run to make 540 available on your tractor. Exactly the worst thing we ever did was switch our 8480 caseih baler to 1000 rpm shaft . The new shaft lasted half as many bales. Our other JD 567 was 1000 pto and our 567 now is 540. With 1486 on front 1400 rpm everything is just quiet and smooth. We never bale at full throttle nice and easy gets more done in a day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1967806 Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 My 5288 was already converted to dual speed when I bought it. And your original picture, yes that is a short 1000 shaft. Take it out and throw it as far as you can and buy a new one so your implement shafts will lock on correctly. You will have to make a gasket also to go between the housings. Neither of the gaskets for the 5288 or an older 06-66 series will work. I thought at one time devons tractor parts offered a gasket just for that. Here is a picture of the gasket I made ready to be assembled to the front housing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super A_sepa Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Im pretty sure Ag Parts has the gasket for between the housings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksfarmdude Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 I've noticed more and more that farmers are using much larger tractors for smaller PTO jobs , While its convenient to have both rpm shafts My larger tractors 130hp + never see any 540 pto use here My round baler is 540 and is ran with a 100hp tractor and does a great job , Everything else is 1000 Just my thinking on this subject 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Kirsch Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Running a tractor at 1200-1400 RPM with a 1000 to 540 adapter might work for flatlanders, but just doesn't work around here. Too many hills around here. Tractor loses too much RPM going up the hill and gains too much going down. At 2200 RPM you just set it and forget it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary1466 Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 I've done this conversion using the 06-86 series rear covers. 2 mounting holes are different locations 1 hole can just be drilled in the rear cover. The other hole needs the casting welded up then drilled as there isn't any metal where the hole needs to be. The aftermarket rear covers weren't available years ago and the IH ones were pricey. I can't remember if the 50 series 1000 shaft is larger at the the end that goes into the needle bearing in the input shaft or if that is just the magnums are larger. Also the 2 806s I grew up with had the short 1000 shaft in them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok I missed that part then. That makes sense why you had to make a gasket. Looks like your cover was done nicely and the gasket looks good!

I always thought it was from someone taking a pry bar to it trying to get it apart with a bolt left in it. The stuff I've found on this tractor since I've had it amazes me. King of cobble was their name I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZG6E Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 I don't know if you tackled this yet but today I converted my 5488 from large 1000 to 2 speed using the shafts and idler gear out of a 1066 hydro and a new cover from abilene machine. The only issue I ran into was that the 540 shaft would go too far toward the rear of the case and the gear would rub on the rear cover. I shimmed behind the 540 bearing with a .010 shim and it fit perfectly that way. I also had to use the clutch drum from the 1066 unit because the snap ring clearance was wrong using the 5488 drum. Unfortunately I had to ditch a friction disc doing this because the 1066 drum wasn't as deep as the 5488 drum. I think it will be fine as long as I don't try to shovel all 200hp down it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1958560 Posted August 2, 2022 Author Share Posted August 2, 2022 I had been using the 52 all winter to grind hay, then the wife indicated that ac when raking would be nice. Put it back on the haybuster a few weeks ago and no pto, wouldn't even spin empty. Finally pulled it out last night and found this. The clearance in the clutch pack looks good. I had a dual speed unit on hold for me at a salvage yard, but think I'll put the 1000 back in since it looks so good yet. The gear was laying behind third link cover and the bolt and washer were in the bottom. Any more parts to be looking for? I think a bit of blue loctite is in order. Any idea on a torque value?
