They leave the 4th gear in place because its not a gear, its just directly connecting the input shaft to the output shaft, where the layshaft and all gears arent loaded at all. Thats why you needed to change that input shaft with gear on it too, to close up the gap between the 2nd gear and the direct drive, which used to be your 4th.
Laughing here. Class videos. I used work on them yokes when they were new, I delivered a pure solid HAYPE of balers with a 40k 12145! Some yoke. Bit terrifying on the brakes when ya would lep on them, at full tilt, mind. But sher that was part of the craic
You have to swop gears around in box first gear you take out second gear is used for first 40k gear shaft will fit where 3was done lots of boxes years ago think I have few kits still
@@CianKenneally an auld lad told me once that the Crystal was the most mechanic friendly designed tractor ever! Zetor even put in a seat in the back of the cab for the farmer to bring his mechanic everywhere with him 🤣🤣🤣 Good luck with it, looking forward to watching the progress 👍🏻
Simple enough just swop cogs around have to diegrind gearbox housing little bit to get bigger cog on shaft in also selector shaft in gearbox you said with hole in shaft for start switch was ant in late70 early80 I always fitted these shafts in gearbox with different drivers
So I'm getting rid of first gear and moving all the gears back then? And putting in new gear where the old 3rd was? Ya I heard that alright but not sure if the older shafts can still be got?
We have a 30k 9245 crystal and her H pattern is the same as what u drew there for the 40k. I thought all the crystals where the same pattern I can’t remember what the older ones where we had I was only a chap.
We had 3 Zetor tractors. Z 25K 1957, Z 7045 1981 & Z 6245 1990. Now we've got Case IH 1056 XL 1990, the best tractor we ever had.

I can imagine 😂 I've all new brakes/expanders/cylinders ordered so she should be able to stop please god
@@CianKenneally tisn't too many yokes could pull to both sides of the road at the one time 😂
@@CianKenneallybeing religous is a help when driving a 40k version ...........
Fingers crossed🤞🏻🤞🏻. I'm anticipating same project on my 12245.
I'm the young lad who's mad into mechanics that never saw the inside of a gear box.

Thanks Lorcan lots of mixed info online might have to quiz you on it if I can't figure it out when the stuff arrives
For the love of jaysus, You are a martyr for punishment, Fuckin hell!
It wasn't actually as bad as I thought to take apart, still waiting on the new gears to arrive 🥵

I’d be able to build my own tractor soon I’d say 😂👌😋😋
Brilliant videos lad 👌
where do you get the spare parts of the zetor
All that for 40k in a zetor. Madness. 30k would be grand. The lad towing you home will have 40k. 😂
😂😂😂 27k is all she was doing
@@CianKenneally fair play to you. Looking forward to seeing her out working next summer
It was a deer set of tyres and cab 🙈

Money and pit are starting to spring to mind with all this work. This is going nowhere, why dont you just do her up original, be worth more in the end
Some of them came 40k originally but this one didnt, I want 40k for tractor runs
