Combines N5 gear box removal

I just did this about a month ago on an N6. It was helpful to have a service manual. It will come out without removing the clean grain elevator. If it is a late model N it will have a removable plate in the bin directly over the gear box. I put a piece of heavy 2" tubing across the corner of the bin and used a come along to lower it. Somebody with more experience might disagree, but I would think with all the bolts broken I would dismantle the torque sensor sheave first before removing the rotor. Take your time as all these parts are heavy, I would also change the rotor coupler while I'm there. Others should chime in as several here have done this. John
