1963 Thiokol 4T4

Greetings
I own a 1963 Thiokol 4T4
It has a power splitter issue (dual drive line's)
Any complete units out there for sale?

I have removed the 4 clutch housings and need to remove
the 4 clutch hubs to access the main housing any idea's?
The two main shafts float and a puller has nothing to bear on

The bearings and seal are out on one of the foreword clutch's, as it has oil
soaked the clutch plates
Did Oliver originally make this unit?
If so what model and year?
Any info will be appreciated
Mark

Welcome to the forums!
I think Mainer can probably answer your questions. Send him a pm or just wait I am sure he is lurking around somewhere.
Do you have any pictures you can post? we LOVE pictures!

Thanks for the response
and the info
Attached is an image of my baby, we bottle and flavor spring water at 6500 feet in Oregon. I purchased this unit about a month ago
rewired it, installed a new starter, carb, fluids, tires
It had been sitting for a while
The image of the split drive is also attached
I need to remove the 4 remaining clutch hubs to get to the
inspection covers on the main housing
the 2- main shafts are just floating and will pull out from either side
not sure how to remove the hubs or who manufactored this unit originally

Looks good.....while you have that power divider out i would sell it and put the money toward an oc-12. maybe even pull the 3 speed and upgrade to an automatic trans. The power divider is a screwy setup. Trust me i have both...a 4t4 with an automatic trans and an 0c-12 would be 10x better in fact probably better than a 602...imho!
