[AT] DC Case

[Gene Dotson]

    Charlie;

    Yes, Case has used the chain final drives since the mode L was 
introduced in 1929 and up till the early 60's 930.

    The differential was directly behind the transmission with stub, or 
brake shafts on each side of the of the differential supported by bearings , 
then the brakes outboard of this. Each shaft had a pinion chain sprocket. 
Each rear axle is independent with a driven sprocket on the inboard end. The 
large roller chain connects the pinion to the driven gear. This is the final 
reduction in the drive system. This system was used on all L,S and D series 
as well as the 500, 600, 900 and early 930 tractors.

                    Gene
