    F-20 overdrive oil seal

    It appears as though that is the Behlen where the lower shaft is splined and fits into the lower gear. Since I have been in the same situation, I would consider using the CR 17310 as I believe it has a .003 larger OD than the 17300. My first seal started to spin slightly in the case or the...

    Farmall H Front Wheel Seal

    Thank you for the numbers. I ordered the seal locally to be safe and will order a bearing set and extra seal tomorrow morning. Does anybody still use the dust felt with the new double lip seal? I took the wheel apart this weekend and the old one was toast. The new kits say the felt only...

    Farmall H Front Wheel Seal

    An older friend of mine wants to take his recently purchased restored 1940 Farmall H on his first tractor ride. He called me frantically today and I determined that it needs a new front wheel seal. As of right now, I think the bearings are ok. Since he needs the tractor for this coming Friday...

    F20 road gear identify?

    I could be wrong but I think that is a Bennett road gear. It's a little different than the traditional Behlen as the lever to engage is out the top instead of the side. The speed of the tractor with 28" tires will be determined by the gear ratio of the box, tire size, and the rpm of the motor...

    Generator on Mccormick Deering 22-36

    Could I talk to you? I can probably direct you with a source for wire. Additionally, I have a generator I am told fits a 22-36 and I would like to compare information. (319) 389-4313.

    Oliver 88 Drum Brakes

    From the help I received earlier on this page, I was able to fix the shifting problem in my 1949 88. So, THANK YOU! My next issue is a tight brake band. I thought the new lining would wear in but it heats up more than I like when driving short distances. Any guesses on how much to turn the...

    Oliver 88 Spark Plugs

    Hi: I have had problems with my Oliver 88 misfiring with a couple small pops at about 150 feet then going away. It will run fine on my first hitch, but on my second hitch it will miss. On the third hitch it usually runs fine. The coil, distributor, and plug wires have been updated. I...

    Oliver 88 Shifter Rails

    Thank you for your help. Would you get another set of rails or would it likely be easier to get mine welded? I'm just trying to plan ahead. I was scared that we would have to take the belt pulley off. It's a good thing I have four weeks off for Christmas... Additionally, when I rev the...

    Oliver 88 Shifter Rails

    Hi: I have a 1952 Oliver 88 that frequently will not shift between the low and high ranges. I was told by some on this site that the problem was likely the shifter rails. I have never had an Oliver transmission apart before. If the rails are the problem, will they have an obvious wear...

    Degreaser Film?

    Thank you! Are there any types of degreaser available that do not leave a film, or should I plan on cleaning it with thinner anway? I had heard of Simple Green but didn't know much else about it. Do you recommend using the thinner before sandblasting and then wax and grease remover after...

    Degreaser Film?

    I have read a few older posts couldn't answer my question. I have my Farmall F-20 comletely clean of heavy grease. I want to powerwash it one more time before sandblasting strictly to remove a light film of oil in a few spots. I want all of the oil off the castings to not drive it into the pores...

    farmall f serial number

    It is an F-20. My book states it was made in August of 1935. The exact gray color is hotly disputed by a lot of people, but it should be gray. There are a number of "close" matches for color. Call me and I can tell you more: (319) 389-4313.

    F-20 fender question

    I believe Fordson House fenders are only the sheet metal skins, no brackets. Bruce Jensen (MN) and also Le Febre (PA), (I don't know about spelling) are the only people I know of that sell brackets with the skins. I have two sets from Bruce. They're now severely overpriced, but they look fairly...
