Yes it does

Is it the clutch-brake style of rear diff? I thought those were out of the International TD6. Maybe I am thinking of the older ones?

 

[Thefatsquatch]

Yes it does

You ever get it sorted out? I just got an 11 inch 223 clutch from Oreilly's for the T-98. I can get you a part number if you still need it.

Yes if you have the part number that would be appreciated. Do you by chance have any photos of your rebuild I could take a look at for reference

Absolutely! So far it’s just engine/tranny and drive shaft, but the bell housing was a pita to find, and the clutch was awkward too. I ended up building the front motor mount because I couldn’t find what I wanted. It’s not quite factory, but it works. The 11 inch clutch I got from O’Reilly’s is part number PTQ K016203. It came with a sealed cartridge throw out bearing, but I couldn’t figure out how to swap it into the original throw out bearing assembly, so I just used the old one. It came with a new pilot bearing and alignment tool too. The motor and bell housing are set up to use a hydraulic clutch, but since I’ll be basically sitting on the tranny, I’m going to build that as a mechanical link. Due to my lovely cellular provider, I can’t send pictures until tomorrow, but they will follow.

Awesome info thanks for sharing ill send you some pics of what I'm working with

Ok. So I have pictures. So far, it's just the dash and the engine/transmission/driveline/parking brake. I converted to a spin-on oil filter, and it leaks as badly as the cartridge style did, so I have cat litter and an oil pan in the pictures. When I picked up the motor and transmission, it didn't have a bell housing, and that took the longest to locate. Just an fyi, it is NOT the one listed by google, because the bell housing bolts to the frame and holds half the weight of the engine and almost all the transmission. In terms of the machine, I am trying to stay as close to original as possible. As for electronics... I am updating. I have an electronic ignition on the way, and I am going with updated gauges etc. It will look pretty factory, but it will have gps speedometer and new fuel sensors etc. Are you planning on using wooden grousers or metal? If you are doing wooden, I have a sawmill and a router table, and it would be just as easy to make the second 200 as the first 200, so let me know.
