Description
When your PTO won’t engage properly or you’re feeling vibration when running your implements, it’s often not a clutch problem—it’s a worn constant mesh PTO shaft that’s lost its bite. Your PTO shaft is the vital link between your tractor’s power and the implements that get work done. This replacement shaft gets you back to full power output so your bush hog, baler, or post hole digger performs like it should. This heavy-duty shaft with 20 splines and 40-inch length is built specifically for Ford constant mesh transmissions.
Key Features
- Heavy collar design handles the shock loads from thick brush and rocky conditions
- 20-spline configuration provides maximum contact area for transferring full engine power without slippage
- 45-degree pressure angle splines ensure positive engagement and smooth operation
- Built with quality materials and proper heat treatment to handle constant rotation, varying loads, and the vibration that comes with heavy implement work
- 40-inch (1020mm) length fits Ford constant mesh transmission requirements perfectly
Built for Real Farm Work
This shaft fits Ford 5000 and 7000 series tractors with constant mesh transmissions, plus the 10 series models like 5610, 6610, 7610, and 7710. These are the workhorses you’ll find on farms everywhere, powering everything from hay equipment to rotary cutters to manure spreaders. Whether you’re cutting pastures, running a post hole digger for fence work, or powering a manure spreader, this shaft transfers all your tractor’s muscle to get the job done.
Made to Last
Farm work is tough on PTO components, with constant engagement and disengagement plus the shock loads that come from hitting rocks or thick brush. This shaft is built with robust construction that handles full engine torque without twisting and maintains proper spline engagement even after years of hard use. The heavy collar design adds extra strength where wear typically starts first.
Installation Notes
This is a direct replacement for the original shaft, so installation follows standard PTO service procedures. Make sure to inspect the PTO clutch and related components while you’ve got things apart – if the old shaft was worn, check what caused the wear to prevent it from happening again. Clean the splines thoroughly before installation and apply a light coat of grease to prevent corrosion. Always verify your implement operates at 540 RPM before connecting—using the wrong speed can damage equipment.
