Read articles →This is part 3 of a DIY clutch job on a New Holland Boomer 40, focused entirely on the tractor-splitting process. It's a detailed, hands-on walkthrough of rigging up an engine hoist, floor jack with a Harbor Freight beam extension, straps, blocks, and jack stands to safely separate the front from the transmission and rear end, including improvised fixes for an uneven barn floor. Best for owners planning their own split rather than viewers wanting reassembly or cost details.
Posted by the trac nunya channel, an owner doing their own repair and documenting the process hands-on rather than presenting a professional or dealer perspective.
Remove the floorboard and loader frame support bolts, then use a floor jack with a beam extension under the transmission and an engine hoist plus extra hydraulic jacks on the front end, all secured with straps and jack stands.
An engine hoist, a floor jack with a Harbor Freight beam extension, six straps, wood blocks, two small 2000 pound hydraulic jacks, and jack stands.
Only two things: a plastic hood clip piece lost one of its three legs, and wiring to a hall sensor on the forward-backward shifter got ripped out.
Because hydraulics can fail, so a heavy duty jack stand is placed under the rear section as a backup even though the Harbor Freight jack holds the weight.
