Well started with the PTO shaft and had decided to reseal the gearbox as it was leaking oil after I refilled it not to big of a PIA to get it off and very glad i decided to I found 2 of the taper bearing cages pretty rusted not broken yet but pitting is seriously deep so now its bearings and seals the residual oil was pretty milky so water definitely was present much better now than after it grenades seriously should tear it down the rest of the way and blast and paint it at this point LOL

FINALLY got the gearbox bearings easy peasy to replace them only 1 clip had to be removed. Painted the gearbox casing while I was waiting it looks pretty good. Glad I saved that toaster oven worked great to give the paint a lil bake 200*f for an hour or so and it really flowed evenly
