[AJD] JD B with "live" PTO?!?

[Louis R Godena]

Yes, I would be very interested to know if and how he pulled it off.   I 
mean, "live" PTO on the JD letter series is sort of like the Seven Cities of 
Gold,  often wished-for, never seen (to my knowledge, at least); the very 
stuff of legend.

PS: My uncle's '51 "B", when I got it, had a few broken teeth on various 
gears, occasioned I am told by the fact that the Wisconsin engine on his 
"14-T" rode the Owl Hoot Trail one summer and, rather than give up that 
baler,  he created a "live" PTO by merely kicking it out of gear at the 
appropriate times.
