So... how much oil is too much?
I bet it's more than this:
Worm drive also pretty fucked
The key gave up a good bit before the shear pin let go. No damage on the bronze gear keyway though...
Every. Single. Nut. and. Bolt. has been a pain in the ass. But the old thing "it didn't get stuck in a day... don't expect to get it loose in a day"
I've heated. I've beated. Right now got the takeoff, PTO shaft and drum in a vat of oil, boiling it daily(ish)
I'll throw some more hours at it this weekend.
