[AT] WD Removal of PTO intermediate drive gear...?

[Will Powell]

Hello;

I am attempting to remove the PTO intermediate drive gear from an old
WD45 transmission housing. I then need to take the gear and place it
into a WD. 

I remember reading that removal of the gear can be done without
splitting the tractor. 

I have removed the hydraulic pump, the PTO gear housing and the shaft
set screw. 

Now what? I have attempted to place a small amount of pressure with a
screw driver between the Thrust washer and the Shaft, but it is not
budging. How do I remove the Shaft? 

Any suggestions are welcome. 




Regards;
