Definitely. The farmer is going to pull the clutch out to send with me if I take it on
I would think a new clutch would be in order in this case.

It's not an economy thing, it just produces the best combination of characteristics. Hard, wear resistant surface with a tough, fracture resistant core. Case hardened 8620 is the go to for gear manufacturing.Quote “I'm guessing carburizing is common in manufacturing considering the cost savings for materials??”
For John Deere it was.

Did most of my splines with a hand ground HSS bit in a flycutter.I have a piece of 2" diameter 8620. I might go up and get the shaft and start planning out a new one. Then I can decide what diameter I need and I can order a piece closer to the right diameter.
I'd like to buy a couple of spline cutters once my buddy helps me figure out what I need.
The case hardening would have to be done by a professional.
I still might. If I can get a ready made cutter for a good price it would be a great addition to the shop.Did most of my splines with a hand ground HSS bit in a flycutter.
If I remember correctly that shaft od is precision ground. An expensive part to make. A lot of good recommendations on how to make the part. The farmer in me tells me to check and see if the part is available at one of the many tractor wrecking yards. I have went that way on a couple of older tractors. The 2440 was a good tractor and worth the effort to repair. The 2750 from the same time era that I have is one of the best tractors I have had. It has over 14,000 hours of work on it. Good luck with the project.
