Gords,

If you remove the cover on the rear of the T-box, where the PTO would fit, and look at the end of the shaft then if there is a grey gunge around the gear and shaft, and you can move the gear on the shaft, then that's the sights of ware.
You will also get a nice "Clunk" as you take up drive and the same if you're a bit heavy on the clutch when changing gear.  :wink:
