I finally decided to rebuild the left steering clutch and started to disassemble today.
When I pulled the final drive pinion shaft cover I discovered that the bearing was toast and had chewed up the cover and the pinion shaft.
I pull the whole final and see what other damage there is. I am going to have to go on a treasure hunt....

Yeah, I know what you mean, just went through this with both finals on the 440. But, if I hadn't, something would have broken in relatively short order, so just as well do it.
