[Farmall] 574 PTO

[Mike Sloane]

536749R1 is the part number for the front driven PTO shaft which is a 
replacement for 404222R1. But that is an old parts book, and Case IH may 
be using different numbers now. If you want the drawing and parts list 
pages, contact me off-line at the address below, and I will send them as 
Email attachments.

The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of 
those who have much, it is whether we provide enough for those who have 
too little. -Franklin D. Roosevelt, 32nd US President (1882-1945)
