I hear it whenever you let out on the clutch, even in neutral, so it' either something rubbing the driveline, or an input/topshaft bearing in the trans. Better check it out before your down another tractor!  |

Jeez John, you make it sound so bad; just because one KT17 blows up on me!
And I was afraid of hearing something like that. Like I said, it's made that "whine" ever since I've had it. I've replaced pretty much everything (3 pin driver, drive flange, drive flange bushing, friction disc, pressure plate, drive spring, compression spring, spacer, release lever, bearing assembly, tranny fluid), except for the compression spring. Guess that means in the spring, I open her up even further. Doh!
On the plus side, the 1811 is about ready for prime time so maybe she'll get a workout this weekend with the 5-6" we have coming
