I've got a farmer friend up the road who has a 4568 IH and he's in a pcikle. He can't get the transmission out and wonders if he's gotta drop the whole engine to get at it. Apparently he's having problems with a couple bolts and wonders if there's some "trick" to making the tranny drop. Any help would be appreciated...he needs his machine yesterday..of course.

Now that it is a tractor! 300HP! The classic IH 4568 beast!
Welcome, Welcome Vermont to the forum!

Here is an old ad from the late 70s that I have on this tractor:


Q's:

For reference, can you advise what problems he is having with the IH transmission currently? I will check and see on the bolts and dropping techniques for this tranny. I am sure others will chime in with support.

Thanks Andy

My understanding is that he's got a couple bolts that are inaccesible......he figures there must be a "trick" because the only other way he sees this happening is by dropping the whole engine.
Frankly, I'm an innocent bystander and want to do all I can to help this guy and I figured by asking around on this forum, he might get the assistance he needs.

BTW,

The bolts that are the problem reside beneath the bell housing,
