Hi Rubins.
If you cant get a manual I suggest you get hold of one of the specialist magazines on vintage tractors, that are available world wide, these will direct you to clubs and suppliers of various parts.
Www surfing will bring allsorts of information.
E.G. –TRACTOR & MACHINERY –www.tractor-and-machinary.com

Leyland 254 was made in the uk by BMC  car makers back in the 1950—1960’s ?
The back end of the tractor will no doubt will have to be stripped down in order to replace the shaft and is al long job and to big for me to direct at this time.
I would certainly try again for a manual.
