Spent most of today out and about, so not much work got done:

1. Got the seized rear pivot shaft free - had to cut a relief in the housing and spread it a bit, this pic was taken after I'd finished welding it back together.

2. Just a shot of the poor PTO pump - the slip joint in the shaft seized up and caused the u-joint to chew into the packing retaining screws.

3. The herd at rest!
