What is this for? - FTC 4866 MCL 4

This came together with a fairey winch and series pto I bought from Steve. I have asked him if he knows what it is for, but he has not replied yet.

Looks like an adapter plate..

Has anyone got an idea?

Cheers,

Finn

It is the rear bearing carrier.

In one of the pics you can see part of the bearing outer race (also called the cup with taper roller bearings). The other parts of the bearing are mounted on the transfer case input gear.

That bearing carrier is removable so the input gear can be fitted/removed from the transfer case. Sometimes when the rear cover (or a PTO that replaces the rear cover) is removed, the bearing carrier sticks to the cover (or PTO) - depends upon procedure used for how the parts are split at disassembly.

It's the outer bearing carrier for the standard output gear from the gearbox to the transfer box.

I'm not too familiar with the Fairey winch, but it might be surplus to requirements. Some winches/ Overdrives are fitted with the cover plate and outer bearing cariier removed, and some are not.

But what I don't understand, what does a disco part do on a series PTO?

Cheers,

Possibly it just got mixed up in the wrong 'box of bits'.

If it doesn't fit your gearbox, but all the other bits do, there is nothing missing, and the PTO works, then it's surplus to requirements.

Regards.

People have used different names for the same parts, which may lead to some confusion. So I have included pics from the LT230T Overhaul Manual.

The item in question is item number 9 in these pics.
